To this day, I'm known as the guy who can "fix anything", and not just technologically. It's great, and I enjoy doing it - but there's a limit. Sometimes, there just isn't anything you can do. Sometimes, the only response is to "chalk it up to experience" and move on. Sometimes, when the world tries to put its weight on your shoulders, you just have to shrug.<br /><br />It's not fun. I've cried at night over seeing someone tear his life apart when I know he doesn't have to - but it's his life, and I have no right to stop him. I've hated the times when my own life has been so chaotic that I just couldn't devote the resources - time, money, even good will - towards helping someone else who really needed it. But you have to do it.<br /><br />You can't save the world - you can only help the world save itself - but you can't even do that much if you aren't keeping yourself together.<br /><br />We all get depressed, we all go through sad times, we all have those days - or weeks, or years - when instinct says to go crawl back under the covers and hide until it's over. Sometimes, legitimately, there's a biochemical problem that requires a biochemical solution - when you have an infection, you take antibiotics, and when you've got a severe neurotransmitter imbalance (or whatever), the only way to fix it is to take a pill. That's just reality.<br /><br />But only someone trained in the matter can tell the difference between "a bad day/week" and "a systemic problem". The best you can do on your own is to try to find that mythical "balance": take some of the load off of yourself and remember that for all your brilliance and capability, you're still only human (or some rough analogue to human) and have limits.<br /><br />Beating yourself up because you're human does no one any good. Remember, the body is just an animal, an imperfect machine. We can't live without it, and we can't completely control it. We have to manage somewhere in the middle.Austinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15289493499922076048noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5173194894567878421.post-21261834787891969322010-10-06T22:44:19.727-07:002010-10-06T22:44:19.727-07:00That really sucks.

I've known the feeling almost too well in the past and can confirm that it totally, undoubtedly sucka ballz!!<br /><br />At times like that I try and put things in perspective. I've been screwed over in love more than once, and (living downtown) realized that love is a luxury that only some get to experience. Yeah, it may suck and it sucks even more to be disappointed. But I appreciate the experience for what it's taught me and that I was even able to have it in the first place.<br /><br />I would definitely agree with the previous poster to see a therapist. Preferrably psychologist not psychiatrist, so you don't just get pills thrown at you.<br /><br />I hope you feel better soon. Although I know fall and the drearyness definitely can take it's hold... :/Paulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16887579337378695820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5173194894567878421.post-54316885746367906572010-10-06T21:08:49.290-07:002010-10-06T21:08:49.290-07:00You shouldn't diagnose yourself based on readi...You shouldn't diagnose yourself based on reading books and talking to a teacher. No disrespect to the teacher, but if you're really worried speak to an actual therapist. And as for relaxing, don't just do nothing (tempting as it can be to lie in bed all day).
