    Default If You Need Help...

    PLEASE talk to somebody.

    Had a great conversation yesterday with a couple of the homies, and the truth is, we all have problems. I personally had a problem with Adderall, Ritalin and stimulants in general. I've overcome my issue, but a good bit of damage has been done, mainly to the relationship with my wife. I would bottle stuff up and then explode at home, breaking stuff and being a general ass. I'm in accountability group now, which has done wonders of good in my life. I encourage you to join our group, or find someone you can confide in. All you need is ONE PERSON. That's it. PM me if you want info regarding my group.

    I pray that you learn from my mistakes, so as not to commit them yourselves. The end.

    BTW, my name is Scott, and my number is (704) 219-4210. Holler at me if you need me.

    Ego, pride and loner/rebel wolf pack of one machismo has ruined more than one good man.

    Thanks for putting this out and opening up. Hopefully it helps someone.

    Even a dentist.

    Been a tough year in my world, so I was fortunate that the place I work for has free counseling, no deductible, no records, nothing. So I figured I would give it a shot. The best part, which I thought would be the worst part, was it was via Zoom. This kept me out of waiting rooms, others seeing me walk in and out and wondering "what's up with him?".

    Here is what I learned:
    Everyone is going through something.
    The worst thing that has happened to you is the worse thing that has happened to you, it is not a contest with others.
    You are not the only person going through this.
    Problems created by man, can be solved by man. (Feel free to change the pronouns)
    Admitting you need help does not make you weaker, it makes you stronger.

    Good luck with your journey, sounds like you are at least self-aware and that is more than half the battle. MG

    Thanks for the kind words, but this isn't about me; whether or not you admit anything on here, get help if YOU need it. That's the point.

    No matter how smart or strong someone is, its highly unlikely that a person will be able to crack the code and live as high quality of a life with their own personal trial and error instead of taking advise, coaching, counseling from people who have studied the aggregated knowledge/wisdom compiled throughout history on the subject, and learn from the experiences of others.

    Use a cheat code for life and let someone show you a better way. Your family will thank you. You only have one chance to give your kids a happy childhood.

    I have always felt that a good drink of fine liquor, a fire, something cool cooking, and some raucous 80s rock and I'm good. Kinda makes me understand how lucky I am to have made it this far.

    Great post man. I swear being a man is a pretty damn lonely adventure. Sure we have friends and we talk hunting, fishing, farts, women with big botties, current events etc. BUt if a man was to start talking about his feelings and emotions, hed get looked at like the elephant man
    I am a nobody, that met somebody, that can save anybody.

    My major professor at Clemson Dr. Nix told me one time that throughout life you will have alot of "buddies". But if you are lucky you will have one or two real friends that if you call at any time and need them, they are on the way. Our preacher calls them 3am friends. Sometimes you just need to tell somebody something to get it off your chest. You dont need criticism or I told you so. Sometimes you feel like you are the only ones going through stuff.

    We had this exact same conversation yesterday, even down to the 3:00 AM friends bit. Didn't know anybody else referred to those friends in the same manner.
