I also feel as though my life is passing me by. I imagine though, most people do. As we are all individuals, life has a way of feeling isolating I find. I can only ever really experience my own in internal life and it's hard to judge the internal lives of others. I assume most people feel uneasy, as I certainly do, about the passage of time, and a bit discontent about their lives, probably even the people in your life that appear to be happy. At least with places like this we can feel a bit less isolated with our anxieties. I find some solace in not being alone in my feelings I hope you do to.
HouseStark, often times I get caught up in myself and center on my feelings that I forget that Im not at all special, and just like yourself discontent as they watch their own lives eats at them as well. Thank you

I never thought white noise could be relaxing but now that I think about it, your right. Ill have to give that a try on the next night. Thank you.

Hey Buffy, I was saying to Housestark its really easy to get caught up in "I", only to find you and housestark thinking the same exact thoughts as my own. Not that it feels good to know that Im not alone but that these are maybe normal thoughts and part of the break through is learning to deal with them or use them, to find positive in them at the very times we cant. You don't walk alone Buffy, thank you too.
