Rants: Everyday Venting

[kalan]

I feel so used and hurt. I don't trust anybody so when I do trust somebody and they use me until they have no need of me anymore I just feel that much more used. I feel dirty that I let someone get that close to me

[Corran Orreaux]

I feel bad for people who work at my local Barnes and noble. Most of them have these fake smiles that scream "Help me!"


What inner demons torment these poor souls?


I just want to give some of these people hugs and tell them whatever hurt they feel will get better... I know its a lie... that's why I never say it. They are trapped, doomed to serve the endless onslaught of ungrateful patrons with multi-colored hair, the smell of overpriced coffee and pretentiousness seeping into their brains.


I remember once, on a crisp autumn day, a man wearing a my little pony shirt got into a screaming match with an old man who was holding a Bill O'reilly book.


"You fags just want to give us back to england!" The old man cried.


"England can have people like you!" The younger lad responded. 


It was pretty funny.

[Ræfóa Aldrnari]

Okay, I'm literally confused if that was a legit vent or not...

[Corran Orreaux]

It was but with some added sparkle.

[Brisky]

That point when litterally all of your family members are sick, and you're just sitting around, absolutely fine, wondering if you're just next in line, or truly have the maddest immume system on the block...

I kinda hope it's the latter...

[Corran Orreaux]

Is it so bloody hard to put the milk back into the F**king fridge?


I swear my sister has some type of genetic disease that physically keeps her from putting milk back into the fridge, putting dishes by the sink is also too much apparently. 


She's 25 but won't do the simplest damn... anything!


She lives off of my parents, getting checks from the government that she supposedly uses some of to pay rent... in truth she spends all that money on my little pony toys and junk food. Her defense is always the same "I have schizophrenia!"


She does and I do feel for her on that front, mental illness sucks, I have my own crap (OCD, ADD, Major Depression, Anxiety) but she uses her issues to get out of doing literally anything, she refuses to even try.


I'm constantly picking up after her, cooking her food, cleaning the endless mountains of trash she leaves in her wake and she can't even put the damn milk away after she sucks down half of it mixed with strawberry syrup?   [size=78%] [/size]


I never get a 'thank you' either, I remember once I was lugging in a grocery store's worth of food for her from the car because "I might trip!" and she got pissed at me for not going fast enough!


If she thinks I'm going to take care of her when my parents can't anymore after I get a place/job of my own... well I think I would take that trip to Ireland that I've always wanted to take and never come back.

[The Past]

Ohhhh, people that use mental illness as a free pass to get away with stuff and act like a jerk REALLY grind my gears.

A much more minor yet sorta relevant experience I've had was a rude "too cool for school" classmate using his supposed ADHD as an excuse for clearly intentionally not doing homework. Makes people struggling with it (but actually putting in effort) look bad. It ticks me off when people say "ADHD doesn't exist" just because of misdiagnosis and kids that behave like that.

[Brisky]

Personally, I do believe that quite a lot of this ADHD stuff is talked into kids, nowadays...

I know a girl from my martial arts class. She's a perfectly fine lady, if not that she's very quirky, and an extremely overly-social person, who yet claims to not like people.

For some reason, she has to go to some sort of special school, for people with disorders, and has to constantly get these counselling sessions, on her school, and constantly get's all of her mistakes and weird quirks talked into her like "It's not your fault, you're autistic, you can't help it", and stuff like that.


I just cannot see why...

She's a perfectly well functioning individual. She takes responsibility for her actions and stands strong like no girl her age I've ever seen before, and has never shown any obnoxious behaviour.

I don't understand why she needs all that stuff. Why she needs to go to this "special school for special people" and get all these counselling calls, and stuff.

I can't put it in any other way. Shure, she's diffirent, but there's nothing wrong with her...

Even more, If I ever get a daughter like that, I'd be damn proud! No way in hell I'd let her get taken away by some sort of detrimental school for "autistic" people...


Times like that, I think that organisations like that are just doing it for the money, and not because it's actually best for the people on that are on there.

Mental disorder, or not. There shouldn't be an excuse to take responsibility for your actions.

But, that's just me, and stuff...

[The Past]

Oh, I agree with you. Autism is different from ADHD, but it's pretty much the "new ADHD" when it comes to over-diagnosis trends. But to say it doesn't exist at all is silly. It's more a case of people broadening the term so they can squeeze themselves/their child into the label and use the disorder as a scapegoat for bad behavior or a "free pass" for special privileges.

[Rocco Rex]

When I got home from bootcamp, I promptly spent almost $450 on a PS4 and some stuff for it. I had forgotten how bad our Internet is. I finally got a whole round of Battlefield 4in before I was too lagged to continue
 So about $450 of stuff unusable, just sitting here. Not amused

[Dazed]

Wanna make friends but my anxiety keeps me from doing so

[Trixsie Vixen]

I injured my back about six days ago. Pretty much I've been in pain since then. The Dr was concerned i at have a hernia but couldn't find one. So I'll probably have to get a CT scan soon.


It's meant I've missed a bunch of work and am now thoroughly miserable.


But mostly I feel like I don't have anyone to look after me.


Just over always being the carer and never the caree.


I feel insignificant.

[Fuzzpaws]

Hugs and healing to you Trixsie.. Back injuries suck, and are slow to heal.  May you find comfort adn healing!!

[Brisky]

Yos, I hope you get better soon, Trix!

And, maybe don't be too hard for people not caring for you. It's possible that people who need taken care for, don't know how to care for others.

I cut my finger a while back and it's still bleeding. Gone through like twenty band-aids.
