depressed about money troubles

And of course other issues.

But the money thing seem to be a huge trigger.

Such as I don't have enough money to pay for my internet. I depend on the internet for a lot of stuff. Like reading about depression.

Short of winning the lottery, does anyone have suggestions on how to stuff this money depression into a box and get rid of it?

Money is my big trigger, too. I wish I had an answer for us both. But you are not alone.

It's my major trigger too. It's just so frustrating feeling like you can't do anything to fix it! I hope your situation gets better soon

You all,

I for one am frankly sick of how money gets us all spinning on ourselves and feeling this way. You know, there are people out there who raised themselves or were raised to not see all the extra negative crap around money. It can be easier to make and not a source of fear and projection of self-worth. I'm as guilty of this as anyone.

The attitude for money making has to change. (The lottery does NOT help much. That is why many people who do win the lottery end up kind of messed up, and many of them just end up living paycheck to paycheck just at a different income bracket--some even go on welfare after winning!)

We have to change our attitude to one in which money is a good thing, it doesn't come just by luck or being stingy or sneaky, and that we work hard for it. It's a lot like becoming an entrepreneur I have found. It takes a lot of good attitude adjusting to be an entrepreneur. But once one breaks through that mental stronghold, they are WAY happier and on a journey to a whole new way of life. Success doesn't just translate directly to dollars, but in achieving worthwhile goals.
