Everything has become bitter

@PopeADope ,

Clinical depression ( or the depressive phase of Bi-Polar disorder ) is a selfish self-centered disease. It's not necessarily you who is selfish and self-centered. It could be a symptom of the disease. Along with that comes the overwhelming desire to give-up in the face of any adversity. There are a lot of factors involved in how you are feeling. Who you are should be separated from how you feel.

Mat, I don't think it's sin thats ****ing with you, I think it's regret.

You know why your life sucks? Because life sucks. Your life, my life, everybody's life. It's just the nature of being human and on this planet. It isn't anything you did or failed to do, its just the way things are. The trick is to learn to live with the fact that life sucks and find some way to make it worth putting up with anyway.

You didn't **** up your world, the world was ****ed up when you got here. Granted, some of the ways you tried to deal with that fact didn't help, but that's true of all of us.

And really, I don't think you're any more selfish than the rest of us. Probably less so than a lot of people.

You can be a bit odd, :D but you're not an ***hole, which puts you in the upper percentile as far as I'm concerned.

sacred texts and proverbs are written and spoken by people all over the world every day, lol.

Everything has become bitter. I hate sleeping, hate eating, hate using the restroom, hate brushing my teeth, hate calling the taxi cab to arrange rides to medical appointments, hate cleaning up, hate bathing, hate dreams, hate sleeping, hate waking, hate body odor, hate the behavior of the people in this slum, hate being imprisoned in this miserable body which has become a torture chamber where the soul is tormented Non-Stop!

I long to hang myself or be run over by a train , but suicide attempts have had bad results and crippling injuries that affect me for life. No matter how much I long for death, I'll not chase death unless euthanasia becomes legal. But may God bring this to an end.

I can accomplish nothing because nothing motivates me, and without motivation there is no ability to do anything.

Do not become a selfish person or narcissistic. Do not worship thyself, use drugs, or become an atheist. It is the cause of this misery and despair. I lost faith and was inconsiderate of others. Now i reap what I sew.

This is a harvest of corruption where all is a drink from the chalice of bitterness. God wills some of us drink nonstop till the last drop is gone! It is our lot for choosing selfishness, narcissism, drugs, love for money, greed, laziness, pride, lust, anger, covetousness, envy, and hedonism. It is the necessary penance! Some of us live in Sodom and Gomorrah.....it must be avoided at all costs. I was happy as an innocent child. Those days are gone! Now nothing brings joy and all is bitter.

Sin will rob you of far more than all your money. It will rob you of your ability to feel joy and make everything bitter and a miserable experience. Sin will make you sick and unable to experience pleasure. Our society largely has forgotten or denied that sin is even something that exists. It must, for it ruined my life when I chose to let it have free reign over thoughts, behavior, and money. Everything revolved around chasing pleasure and being a selfish narcissist.

It is clearly the cause of this misery and I have myself to blame. I just implore you to be wiser!
I remember this ancient record.
Give it a listen for boosted spirits.
