Probably gonna drop out of college. Or withdaw, I guess. Maybe it's not technically dropping out because my grades are good. Still seems like failing.

Don't know what to do. Can't keep doing this though. I've been trying. Guess I'll try and find some help. More help than I've already tried, I guess.

:(. That sucks. Do you have any plans for something else to do? Maybe something more hands-on?



I'm not sure which is worse, that running on caffeine and adrenaline works or that I'm doing it right now.

My parents have some recommendations for doctors/therapists to try and see. I guess I'll just live with my parents like a failure and maybe get a job while I wait to see if the doctors/therapists work or I suddenly find renewed vigor and lust for life and decide to return to some college somewhere. Probably take classes at the nearby community college maybe. And in between that stuff I guess I'll do what I did between classes at college: play video games or dabble in hobbies. Maybe work on programming some things, read about AI stuff, and maybe try to get not sucky at guitar. Mostly try to do things besides play video games all day or sleep all day.

Have a rather big exam tommorrow. I studied for it, but not nearly enough, doesn't help that the subject matter is mostly daft, dense shit that I won't ever need after I've passed this thing. Doesn't help that I've had another exam this morning which has left me kinda groggy and without much will to study for the rest of the day. It's even worse tho because the exam is tommorrow afternoon which gives me plenty of time to stress about it while not making much of a difference when it comes to being able to memorise stuff.

Edit:

@Spehss
That's a viscious cycle buddy that wears you down. I know it seems hard or impossible but you gotta try and break yourself out of it. I've had a similar problem and still occasionally fall into it but I've got people to help me out now. If you don't that's gonna make it a bit harder but still doable. Start small, go for a run every day, try learning some new chords every day, draw, just do something. And don't do it only if you feel like, that's the biggest problem, you don't feel like doing anything because you're not doing anything, and you're not doing anything because you're not feeling like doing anything (that sounded so much better in my head). You just gotta start doing, I found that it greatly helps if you take the decision mostly out of your hands, say at a certain hour of every day you'll do X thing, regardless of your mood. Build that discipline to push yourself trough veil of shitty stuff and work. Just gotta keep moving bro.

That turned out way longer than I thought it would, hopefully it helps atleast a bit.

My nose exploded with bloody ramifications. Again. Always happens at exam times.

I thought nose bleeds weren't meant to be this bloody common when you're 19.

And yes, I can use "bloody" to show how common it is if I want, hehe.

My elderly dog is having trouble eating, and has lost ten pounds very quickly. Took him to the vet, and results should be back soon. Hope he's fine.
Update: Dog's kidneys aren't working, and he's probably going to die. Two options, either let him go, or hospitalize him and pump him full of IV fluids. Second one has a very slim chance of working. Had him since I was little. Don't want him to go. Crying right now, can't see screen very well.
Update Deux: Vet put down dog. He was tired, and old. Vet says he probably wouldn't have lived through the day.

It's been less than 3 days since we had the vet check him out.

Losing a pet is a special kind of pain. May he rest in peace.

Well, apparently there's some dude walking around school with my iPod. The problem is, I only have a very vague description of him, and even if I do find him, I've most likely thrown away my only chance to claim the device.

Welp. I now have the dreaded feeling that something bad is going to happen in the near future. I get the distinct feeling that we're going to get screwed on the house we're trying to move into.Just found out that things are not going the way they were supposed to, haven't seen the paperwork yet, but from what I gather, I get the impression that we're going to wind up seeing our rent jacked up several times before being dumped out of the house because someone else wants to buy it.

I've been screwed too many times to feel good about the future. I mean, yay, we're moving into a house instead of an apartment, but I doubt it lasts two years.

Same here. My first word as a baby was apparently "no," so I'm not sure what went wrong along the way.
