I wish i could go back to the early 2000's

[Daystavro]

I was a kid back then and I was happy.
Life made sense.
It all went downhill for me in 2006.

Did a lot of drugs back then. Drugs were better in the 90's tho.

In the early 2000s, I was in grad school. I thought that once I graduated, I would be able to support myself and live on my own like an adult. Well, I became suicidally depressed for no real reason that I could think of and could no longer focus on my studies: I was obliged to leave grad school, return home to my mother and go on SSI. That was a major disappointment in my life.

What happened if you don't mind me asking?.

 

[Mr2005]

I don't mind you asking, I appreciate it in fact. I've just gone over it so many times I have to psyche myself up to write it out again

Share when you are ready mate. I like to hear what brought others here. A story can give us so much more insight into another poster, makes it all a bit more personal. I have a lot of empathy for everyone that is on here and like to learn about them.

2006-2007 was when I first experienced depression at 12/13 :(

Same here.
My life were relatively fine until the summer of 2006.
When my first anxieties and mental problems appeared.

 

[Angst Filled Fuck Up]

It was a great time for me too. Lots of drinking, girls, good music, coming up in the world and feeling like I was going to make something out of my life. But it's like they say, we make plans, and God laughs.

 

[Final Escape]

Yes I would want to go back at least to 97 when I started in strip club and tell my young self to go get a different job immediately lol!

 

[Lra888]

At one point I had ambition and hope for the future. Now I can barely function. Awful.

 

[Lra888]

When I was very young and first experiencing depression and social anxiety I wrongly assumed that I would overcome those problems and have a somewhat decent future. Mental illness poisoned every situation, relationship, friendship, job etc. Total ruin.
