As i sit here wondering about what will become of myself firstly i would like to say for those who respond with intelligent responses i appreciate them and all the other ignorant children i disregard.I am a 27 yr old man i been thru alot of situatoions my life but i recently encountered a feeling that i have no more left to give i am drained,i go to work like a robot everyday the only thing i look forward to is the gym and now i work out so much i have to stop because i am sore,My girlfriend doesent really do it for me although she loves me i just dont feel a thing i am numb i am educated amongst the world issues and have some visions of what i dream to be and aspire to be but i feel like the system and things affecting me right now are keeping me in a box i am trapped all my lifes circumstances are suffocating me i dont know what to do or how to get motivated i have tried before but it seems that every attempt has failed i dont know why but it just feels like its getting close to the end of my road because i have no emotions not a feeling in my body only thing i posses is a dream for another life a better life where i can be proud and live well and see my dream happen but every day it fades more and more i am getting close to the point i am a robot a drone lost actually hoping the day i can rest maybe even if it is to rest in peace in my grave i want to be free from my own hell i have sunken into

sounds like you could have depression or something similar, have you talked to your GP?

I would say you are depressed, and try not working out for a couple of weeks, if you are still sore, you could be depressed, because being depressed can make you feel physically sore. I would talk to your doctor about it, try geting a medication like zoloft or somthing. It also could be a phase, but i would still consult your doctor as soon as you can.

I think you need a vacation, if you can afford it perhaps some time away and relaxtion could do you some good. If not maybe a different job, one that you enjoy. Im only sorry i dont have more advice for you.

Adventure. Your soul is crying out for adventure. Although depression may be a bi-product of it, I can tell that you are the type of person that is probably in need of some traveling or anything else that it radically different than your current life.

Maybe you need a new girlfriend and a new hobby.
Although life can be extremely boring for intelligent people.

I hear your pain man. I was (and sometimes still do) in a similar situation. Basically feeling like this is all so pointless, and maybe it is. I was married, two dogs, beautiful apartment in Manhattan and I made really good money. The point is I felt shitty when I had nothing, and when I had everything I still felt shitty, maybe worse. The only thing that helped my was to see a therapist and start lexapro. After a few months I was able to identify what I dislike about me life and I made the necessary changes. Believe me, I have had an extremely difficult and fucked up early life (I'm 31) and I sometimes feel so old that I have nothing left. But the therapy truly helps. Good luck man.

ITS THE SAME FEELING YOU ENCOUNTER, WHEN YOU ENCOUNTERED THE FEELINGS YOU ARE EXSPESSING AT THE MOMENT. FIND YOUR=SELF AS A MAN IN GENERAL, SEEK AFTER THE BEAUTIES THAT LIE AMONGST YOURSELF. NOTICE YOURSELF WITH IN CREATION, AND THINK BEYOND YOURSELF AND BE THANKFUL FOR YOURSELF, AND YOUR OWN CREATION AS A MAN IN GENERAL. SEEK AFTER THE LOVE THAT IS DAWNED THROUGH EACH LIFE THAT EXIST AMONGST YOU. SEEK AFTER TRUE LOVE THAT COMES WITHIN DIVINE TRUTH. SEEK AFTER THE VERY ESSENCE THAT TAPS INTO YOUR INSTINCT AS A MAN AND FIND ALL THE JOY, PEACE, TRUTH AND LOVE THAT YOU WILL NEVER WANT NO MORE. MAKE TIME PASSING THROUGH THIS CREATION WORTH IT!!!!!!

You know what you can do which will make a big difference in you're life is change. Change something in your life. Get out of old habits and things that bore you like you're girlfriend, I'm sure you love her but I don't think it's really love if she doesn't do anything for you I think its all habit. I know because I've been in this situation before. Life after all is all about taking chances in my view of the world. Hope you find this helpful.

Fuck these cretins with their D word. Depression is just one more poor abused little lable -- can you possibly fkkn dig? Diss this guy with your 2nd hand clever diagnosis and then insult his intelligence telling him to take fkkn drugs? Robot what you say basically is you're a shade away from death. Death is ok if you're dead but not while you're demonstrably alive, as you've found. You've run scared into a hole where you're numbed up against that fear that put you there. So and your way out is put yourself in situations (travel-- NO damned safety net) where you have to live -- and feel afraid and suffer. That way you also get the flipside -- enjoy and be alive. Trust me it works -- but you can't not suffer, you just have to, or stay android-numb.

Tough it out. Turn to family, friends, even have a sit-down with your girlfriend and talk to her about it. Now, I'm not too comfortable with the idea of taking pills to help fight off depression, but I caved eventually because I was going through a lot of things at one time that just seemed too overwhelming to handle.

what c*ckyc*nt said, immerse yourself.

F**k this mental bulls**t, i had the same problem, do what i did leave everyone and sell everything and see how far u can go on a real adventure but leave the money at home, in about 2 and a half years i had been practically everywiere and done practically everything and almost died half a dozen times along the way. And i had never felt more alive! And when i came back i picked up where i left off but i was truely happy.

I realise this sounds like a bad disney movie but its all true!

I remember feeling exactly how you did about 12 months ago. But in a teenage form. I would wake up go to school chill with the same people, hear the same stories do the same shit. You know what it is man your missing a young child, being free minded. you Miss not knowing but being happy about it. but nothing can make you a child again.
BUT THE CLOSEST THING IS THIS STUFF I LOOOOOVE called Marijuana. and listen man all these npeople here are telling u to take anti depressants and shit. Weeds cheeper does a better job and YOU TRIP BALLZ
