A Sadness Thread

Recently, I've had to come to the peace with the fact that I'm really not intelligent. I try to be, I really do. I love studying and reading, and writing. But whenever I try to show it, people just patronize me and remind me that I don't know quite as much as them. All my friends are super smart and good at everything, where I'm just kind of there.

I wish I could prove to myself that I'm not stupid, but I haven't succeeded yet.

Bet your smarter then you think.
From elementary school threw high school I was in "special edu"
We did things like in math, we colored and watched happy gillmore
Books were read to us. And only one teacher believed in us.
Others didn't care. I got by on my good looks, specially with the sexual advances on the ocation. Worst one was the male music teacher. "I think little boys with glasses are sexy" I was like 9 or 10.
Teachers asked other students if they were embarrassed I couldn't read.
Highschool I had a teacher pull me aside and tell me I should just give up and ill never amount to anything.
I was in special edu in collage as well. It was nice there. I could have people take my notes and help me with everything I could of ever wanted. But I never took up the offer.

O o yeah, bad things
? my work blames me for everything that goes wrong
? I get yelled at at work and at home everyday.
? I'm depressed and only really get by day to day is for my kids.
? I think about killing myself daily but I couldn't abandon my kids.
? I can't argue or defend my self because I go blank.
? my family isn't getting along.
? everyone is fighting
? I look forward to a game that's not out that I won't be able to even play.
I have the 3ds I don't have the ability to play with out guilt.
? I'm at the point struggling with still being myself and the other side of being a adult and just giving up everything and just work and work come home work here and never rest it feels like I just don't have enough time to do everything to make everyone happy. Can't make one person happy with out upsetting another. I just want to fall in a pitfall and just play with my kids...
I don't want to do this anymore.. I just want... Need to give up...

I make the money.
The big money.
I keep the company afloat.
So if something goes wrong, they turn to me.
The boss permanently hurt his arm wile I was at a memorial,
So it's my fault I was t there.

I worked 2 months with no day off and I didn't work enough. But my bro worked 5 days and he was a god send to them.
I could go on, I got 10 years of working there and horrible story's from the beginning.
 
I'm sorry for everything you all are going through. (But the bird poop thing made me laugh, sorry)

The film industry is extremely slooooow here right now, so I am stuck working a very dull but stable office job.
My training to work in the medical field is not quite complete, and the last class I have to take is Supervisory Management and it is pretty much ten weeks of bullcrap bureaucratic stuff. I am not excited in the least.
There's something wrong with the way my stomach processes food, so I have to see a specialist next week, and she's going to stick a camera down my throat. Like all the way down. Thank goodness they knock me out for that.
I finished all my Christmas chocolate. And I'm not counting on getting any for Valentines unless I buy it myself. Fortunately, I have no shame and a regular income.
It's winter in Vancouver, and it feels like its raining every damn day and aughsomuchrain.

I guess none of those are really awful, but I really really miss working on films. Even the awful ones.

Hey man, I just wanted to personally tell you that life can get really tough sometimes, but that's not a reason to want to give up. You have a family who loves you and you have all of us here at TBT, I know depression can strike and we all feel upset, but please don't feel like giving up is the only option. One very important lesson I've learned in life is that no matter how bad it seems, there's always someone who has it worse.. And there's always a light at the end of the tunnel. Everything will get better, I promise :D Just keep holding on!

Intelligence isn't knowing how to and being good at everything.
It's knowing how to enjoy the things you can do, and improving upon things you can't.
 
My friend called me perfect and I just feel really pressured now because she was like 'your hair is always perf, your skins always soft and tan like you have foundation on when you don't. Your eyebrows are amazing and so is your body blah blah blah'
and now I feel pressured that I have to meet the expectations of my 'friends' and i can't be perfect all the time i dont want to be pretty I want to be ugly

I kinda understand your whole work situation...
When I was younger my dad worked at a furniture sale store called Lounsbury. At first he wasn't doing so well, and they asked him if he could bring his sales up. He worked very, very hard until he eventually brought up the sales higher than anyone else in the store. All of his coworkers like him and everything, but the manager whoever else was higher up really didn't like him for some reason.
Well, someone was going to be promoted to a pretty high level job. All of his coworkers and assistant managers were saying that my dad should get the job. The higher up staff didn't take this very well, and they decided that they should just go ahead and fire him.
So that's what they did. He got fired, and he ended up working as a worship leader at our local church. He is now a youth pastor and we are all doing pretty good, even though we were in a bit of a rough spot for awhile.
No matter what happens, look ahead to the future, because it will get better.
 
I don't know whether there is a venting thread there really should be but I can change it too make it sad.

It makes me feel sad when people hash tag on Facebook, connect their twitter account too Facebook or both at the same time!

I don't understand what a hash tag is.
 
I just forked over $200 to my car mechanic and it's not even fixed and the next repair is also gonna cost $200 and I'm willing to bet it's not even going to get my car fixed. This car is costing me all the money I had left and no one will hire me.
