Prayer request

praying for ya brother. im not sure if you like podcasts/ devotionals but listening and reading pastor rick's daily hope has really transformed my life and helps me through my tough days: https://www.pastorrick.com definitely recommend!

 

^ Well said and Homer, find a local church and simply pop in for a Sunday service. Don't be discouraged if that church isn't for you, it takes time for many to find the right one. The important thing is, there should be a Pastor or church elder that will speak to you in your struggles.

Prayers to you, Homer. I've been there and I absolutely understand the struggle completely. If you feel comfortable enough, reach out to someone you know and talk to them. If not, feel free to reach out to me via DM and I'll chat with you over the phone if you like or via text.

Something I do to reset my mindset, is to get away from my typical and normal routine. That said, I tend to drive to the beach and just watch the waves crash and enjoy the small details in life we take for granted.

 

Glad to hear. We will continue praying as well.

 

How we doing today friend? PM's are still wide open, would love to hear from you! Didn't quite want to bring any attention to the public light, but your privacy settings won't allow us to initiate any conversations privately - I intended to PM you and extend an offer to say something along the lines of "I don't know you. You don't know me. Sometimes its better this way, as its easier to unload what you're going through to someone who has absolutely zero involvement or attachment to those circumstances. This is an open invitation: whats going on buddy? Don't hold back.. I'm not legally qualified to advise you, but I'm more than qualified to listen. I'll absolutely give encouragement; I may not have answers. But simply unloading the weight you're carrying via writing it down/sharing it with someone can make that next step of grief/anxiety/depression a helluva' lot easier to take. One step at a time friend."

For your own privacy, please don't respond to this invitation here. PM me.
For anyone else that reads this invitation, its open to you too. This place (TW) is a social hell-hole; its comprised of people. People (myself included) are assholes. My posts are often sarcastic, joking undertones, sometimes blunt, or even degrading sometimes. Thats the fun social mask we put on behind the keyboard, being fun, poking fun at each other, grabbing the pitchfork for friday dumpster threads; but my PM's are always reserved for a 100% honest and pure man to man open line of communication should you ever need it. To anyone reading, I'm here. And I'd venture to say that anyone who took the time to post in this thread is also here.

 

Weathered the storm. Last 2 days are much better. Just a bit overwhelming there for a bit. It's like an itch that you can't scratch. Thank you all.

 

I am trying to distract myself thru some humor to get by, sorry for being out of the loop.

 

You are right - it is a storm, we have to fight our way through it.
Sometimes just knowing there is someone out there trying to send some power your way can make the difference.

Good to see you man.

 

Prayers for you.
You should get some counseling or therapy. Talking with a professional can help us and can save us .

 

good to hear from you brother, glad you are stringing together some better days.

 

What doesn't kill you only makes you stronger. Been down that road and somehow made it back.

 

Hang in there, I unfortunately know that feeling all to well. Had a rough couple weeks myself. Don't forget, you're never alone! Best wishes

 

Glad to see that you're feeling better - gotta keep seeing you in the song title and the keep a word, drop a word!

Fins up, brother!
