    I havent been around for a while as have been working hard in my day job moving from temporary position to temporary position.

    It feels like 5 years I have been stuck in this loophole and now I'm approaching the age of 31 and I'm deeply depressed and not enjoying doing the things I used to.

    This is probably the only time in the last few years I have had a chance to relax and reflect on things in my poor and uneventful life as I have been burdened by debt and the banks and failed training courses and just everything collapsing almost as if I am being punished for an unknown reason. I used to have a career plan but the might of 'Barclays Bank' who are only interested in scamming people have put those plans to bed.

    I'm still in good heath but want to know if there is a way to a better future or if I am destined to work myself into an early grave with no enjoyment of life.

    Can anybody point me in a good direction to try and salvage a life that has been robbed of it's best days so far? I dont have any capitol behind me really as have had to sell alot o assets.

    Thanks and Merry Christmas to everybody who deserves it!
    Thanks for sharing such an uplifting post. I awakened feeling a bit blue from being all alone on Christmas, but thanks to you, I feel much better now.

    Cheers. - Frank

    P.S. Has anyone seen where I placed my straight-razor???

      So it's not ok in your book to vent frustrations at all?

      I've been taught it's better not to bottle things up as that can make things worse. Sure it was a negative rant and totally misguided and I admit I was in a bad place at that time.

      You dont know me personally and I'm probably nothing like you would imagine.

      My heart has always been in the right place even if I have struggled to cope with things at times.

      I have never given up on life and despite not having achieved much because of various set-backs I still manage to exist even if I cant afford to do the things I would like to.

      Have a great day.

      Frank - should have told me. We have plenty of food and space - you could have joined us! One more is always welcome...

      At least seems the moderators reacted appropriately.

      Interesting that if you look at past posts of someone who went off like the OP did - you find a trail of negative thoughts and comments about being scammed and things that don't work, blah blah. Maybe we create our own reality?

        Thanks, Kay. I guess I should have mentioned that the only way I could have felt worse was to have been surrounded by humanoids for the day. I had a few invites, even from those that have gotten a "No, thanks" for the past 20 years. You would think they would have learned by now. :-)

        I wasn't really blue. I was just reacting to a doofus who showed a total lack of good manners by posting that crap.

        I love my time alone. If I didn't, I'd change it. You are totally correct. Each of us does create our own reality.

        Cheers. - Frank

          They probably feel safe inviting you as they know you'll turn them down. You should accept some time just to see how they react....

          I had years of alone Christmases and for the most part I enjoyed them thoroughly. No muss, no fuss, no stress...and days where people didn't bother me because they were busy with their own holidays....

            No doubt about that.

            Too dangerous. I might have to show up. I'm not really as bad as I make myself out to be and those that truly know me actually like me. lol

            Yes - it's called Nirvana. :-)

            P.S. I binge-watched the entire second season of Fargo, yesterday. Still coming out of that cloud. :-(

              Tut, tut. Frank. You should always finish a sentence.

                Most of my friends tell me that I am the kind of person they like . . . . . . . like to throw rocks at.

                We watched the newest Mission Impossible and about 4 episodes of Hawaii Five-0.

                I think I dozed off at about episode 3....

        Or maybe we have genuinely been scammed and it has had an impact on my mental health.

        Such as when my family invested in an IT course to get me MCSE certified within 3 years only for the entire course to have been a scam from the outset supported by the corrupt Barclays bank ruining myself and thousands of other students lives for a good couple of years. Spoiling what should have been the best years of my life and leaving me to pick up the pieces with a series of mundane jobs.

        No this isn't me creating my own harsh reality. I have just been dealt a poor hand numerous times and at times when I picked out a few online ventures I have been led down the wrong path again. Maybe I am at fault for making poor decisions. In the instance of the IT course this was advertised on TV in the uk and executed so perfectly that none of the thousands would have an clue as to what was to come.

        In response to my original posting around christmas I agree it wasn't pretty and I was not in a good frame of mind at the time.

        I've just secured a job locally for a good company earning £12 an hour to begin with - Pretty poor in the grand scheme of things for a 30-year old but I have to make the most of what I can get as it's damned hard to get a good job in this country which has been run into the ground at times by our selfish leaders.

        If you think I am over-reacting then please tell me so as I am in a much better frame of mind now than previously and wont rise to any provoction from more successful people as I'm not a materialistic or selfish person if at times frustrated yes.

        Kind Regards

        Chris

    Hi everyone i am new in this forum.

    I know this is probably the wrong section but I am seeking to try something new online. I will always have fears because of what has happened in the past which is why I have to seek advice before choosing to follow any new guides, strategies or consider purchasing anything. I will have a look around today but if anybody genuine wants to private message me with any pointers I would appreciate it. At the same time if nobody wishes to get in touch I'll accept that and try to move forward independently.
