"impending doom."

Question:

– Hide quoted text — Show quoted text – that’s much too grandiose. nothing in my life has ever amounted to anything even near that grand, but i can’t really think of any other way to describe it. "i am experiencing anxiety like you do during those moments between the point when you fear you’ve misplaced your keys and the point where you reach to touch your pocket and go, ‘oh, i’ve got them.’"                          i think that’s pretty much my life.                          nothing at all too important, just embarrassing confusions and ill-at-eases, and it doesn’t really seem to matter whether i’ve lost those keys or not, because they don’t unlock much of anything of value anyway. — m e

Would this be anything like my ‘unfocused dread’? — —  Whiskers

You are addicted to keeping up with the joneses’ you compare your gear to your neighbors and think what a bunch of junk I own.  The fact that most of what we buy is garbage anyway is not the point but we want to have better garbage than our neighbors.  I think most of what got those people killed is over the same junk we buy and plan our ridiculous little lives on.

i would appreciate it if you wouldn’t treat my post as your own personal rorschach test. — m e

that sounds like post traumatic.  I had 5 major panic attacks and went nuts because I wasn’t sleeping. This was this year before the terrorist attacks. that’s much too grandiose. nothing in my life has ever amounted to anything even near that grand, but i can’t really think of any other way to describe it.

You can chose to use your talents in a way that is life giving and makes you feel good or you can sit around thinking of yourself as a loser and your life a waste of time.  You can wait to die or choose to embrace life and wring every ounce of beauty out of it you can. Go feed the birds in the park that always makes me happy when life is too much for me. — m e
