    Keeping it positive from one moment up to one day at a time that is all we can do. Good to see your now trying to move in a positive direction, keep it up brother. And I hope the same for Sava!

    I don't know you as much as you don't know me. I can't even imagine feeling the way that you do so I won't begin to attempt advice. But one thing that I do know after reading through this thread is that it is evident that there are people that care about you. Some that know you and many that are complete strangers on a personal level. I pray that this support strengthens you and helps you to get well and get your life on track for God's purpose.

    Life is weird. 3 weeks ago I tried to end it. 2 weeks from now I turn 43.

    And in 30 minutes, I get my first tattoo.

    Your first tattoo? Did you lose a bet or something?

    I'm really glad to see you around, TRF. Just take things one day at a time. That's all we can do in this crazy thing called life!

    Re: How i screwed everything up.

    So, in order to keep myself occupied this summer, I have decided to take a class at the college i work at. Though I now do web programming (i use the term "programming" loosely) I chose a class from my old degree.

    Thursdays from 4:00 - 8:00 Central time, i will be a DJ on one of the only 100,000 watt college radio stations in the country. You can listen live here: http://www.kacvfm.org/

    Lots of good music, and for me, a return to days I was very happy.

    I'm not 100%. I still have some bad days, yesterday and today included, but I am finding more and more things to be excited about. Like this poem my youngest (she's 13) wrote that won her a school award and was printed in their yearly writing publication.
    Sunset

    Emily de Jesus

    The sky looks relaxed
    The sun is at its lowest point
    Clouds are hovering around the large yellow ball of light
    Its beautiful at every angle
    I smile at the sunset
    Colors are bursting
    Purples, yellows, pinks and blues
    I smile even bigger
    Because I know the pretty sight is in me
    The sun is my heart
    Something that beautiful came from my daughter. How can I possibly beat myself up knowing that?

    Great to hear from you TRF, you'll always have bad days that linger. My meltdown was in 2002 and I still find myself in the darkness at times. The best thing you can do is keep yourself busy and constantly remembering the good in you life (like your daughter's beautiful poem and your kids).

    Per TRF's request, I am closing this thread, but personally, I want to thank everyone who kept him (and his family) in your thoughts and prayers at a time he needed it most.
