Bad morning.

I'm so angry/mad/sad/hurt beyond repair right now.

This is not a way to begin a day:


This morning I was talking to my friend about a problem that had hit him pretty hard. It involved another person who seemed to had hurt my freinds emotions, ego, and self esteem. From what he described to me, this other person was fond of suggesting that he hurt himself phyiscally, and of saying and doing awful things which hurt my friend and worsen the depression he already was battling.


I suggested that my friend stay away from this other person as much as he could, and that this other person obviously needed some help.

It was at this point my friend swtich on me. He couldn't believe that I suggested that this person who was assulting him should recieve help.

Now, personally I am the type who would rather see a person get thier problems solved and get better, rather than see them get thrown in jail for a decacde or two and realsed back into public.

What it comes down too is that, I told him punishment should be served, but at the same time help should be given.

But it must have been too late, because from that point on my friend seemed disregarded everything I said, and make snappy sarcastic remarks to my interest to help him.

I tried my hardest, and my d*mnest to help my friend, especially since I'm much better at helping others rather than myself.

I tried tooth and nail to help him, or at least brighten his day alittle. Eventually he told me that he regreted ever bringing his problem to my attention, and then he left promptly and coldly.

Now I'm sitting here writing this and I'm so angry and hurt that this person took all of my effort, and casually tossed it into the trash as if it was nothing.

Its understandable that ones advice may not be the best advice given, but doesn't it count that I at least tried to consider your needs?

Doesn't it count that I took a part out of my lousy morning to sit down and try to help you?

Doesn't it count that I at least cared enough ask?

I guess NOT.

Its enough to make me want to never help this person, or anyone else who take ones carring for granted, again.

In the past I have had my efforts crushed and forgotten coldly, and I'm getting to point where I'm thinking: what is the point of helping people if they don't even care that I'm giving them my all?

I'm getting to the point where I just want to shut the door and let people fight thier own battles.

No one cares how I feel, so why should I give a d*mn about others anymore?

I'm so tired of being stuck not able to help myself, and then being ineffective in helping others. I don't make it a business to annoy others with my help, and only offer when asked for, or a person seems like they are in extreme distress.

Maybe I'm just being a idiot and overreacting.

I dunno anymore. I just want to kick something.

dont be so hard on yourself, it sounds like you really tried with this person, its not your fault if they cant accept they have a problem. try and be content that you done all you could, but this person wasnt ready to be helped.
i hope the rest of your day will be a good 1

I think it counts for a LOT that you tried. Maybe he'll come to realize that you're right, but at the very least you know that you did as much as you could. *thumbs up*

Thank youf or the support...I know I do not say it often.

I thought about it through out the day and came the same conclusion you guys came up with: at least I tried.

I think one of my main problems is that I dwell on these issues (these simple things) way too much.

Makes you wonder whether a problem is only a problem because you put so much effort into correcting or analyzing a situation which couldn't be helped.


Thanks once again...I feel alot better now during thw winding down of the day
