And how can I possibly help others? I cannot control forces of nature. I do not turn back time, and I cannot make one to love another. Talking is quite useless here I think.

I once tried to help some people, but it didn't work, because they new it wouldn't work at all.

I'm sorry. I came here not for offending people. I just wanted to talk with someone, but I though that there are some other topics exept from all those problems.

It's called "depression-understood.org"... The title gives it all away!

I would be careful about warning people off of any site.
For one thing, it's not always warm and fuzzy feelings that help people. I think the truth is, it's difficult to know what will help and the best advice is to keep trying.

It's not unusual for me to be, one day offended and the next day inspired, by someone's posts. Our emotions change daily. Some of what inspires me is peoples progress. We can't have the better without first the bitter.

Can we?

Which is why, even as a moderator, I have to be reminded sometimes, that dark thoughts, conflicted or inconsistent thoughts are still welcome here. I think it good for everyone to both speak and listen with respect.

You didn't mention, Daniel, what activities may have interested you in the past.

Yea, problems do tend to creep into discussions. But solutions do also, and that's the good part. So what of it? Is it reading you like? If you search a bit there are posts on books, on philosophy, some science.

If you post about something that interests you you'll get a reply. If you can't think of any thing right now, look around, try a search. Maybe something will spark you interest.

All I meant was the next. If you know that the airplane is going to crash and this is inevitable, then wouldn't you prefer to talk about something else exept from the upcoming death. I don't think that this is the right thing to give a hope when there is no hope.

Hi)
I was doing pretty good with math and programming, physics. I had some extraordinary plans. But then, because of life, I was deprived from my timeless leisure and thrown back into society I'd been avioding. And this is easy to guess that it broke all the patterns I've had in mind. All the life rubbish intruded into my pure thoughts and contaminated everything.

Depression can take it toll on us, but one day you'll be free from it.

I know what it's like to have society, and nature for that matter, intrude into our pure thoughts. It's a lucky few who get all the time they need to just think.

Still, I think there is value in piecing together moments of deep thought together into a greater whole. We have many resources [you have mentioned your familiar with a few], like CAD, or office programs, the languages of math and logic. We can do great things if we dedicate small bits of time every day.

Very lucky.

How can manage that. Usually it always fails when I start, for there is so much to do, so much to cover, so much to through, and I'm not even talking about strength and nerves and neverending problems.
But thanks for answering)

When I was a school boy I used to drive on a bicycle to the local ruins near the wood and sit there for a while. But now I don't go there.
