  • Its just the times we live in now, the amount of control, i don't know how this happened, maybe people were asleep at the switch, but they sold the country out for money. If you have a smart phone, don't expect privacy. If you are on a wireless network, also don't expect privacy. Hell even ISPS record/sell information of what you been looking through in data packets.

    True, but in most cases the data is just logged and archived, not actively used against people.

    I don't really have much faith in humanity, right now. Humans can exploit others for their own benefit, they will. It is human nature, to be selfish.

  • They also sell to companies that sell to people who are looking for you. Stalking in the 21st century isn't a sporting game anymore. Give me a name and a general location, and with very little work I can give you their arrest records, where they live, what property they own, any court cases they have been involved with civil or criminal, how many parking tickets they have. Give me their social security number and I can own them. There is a reason identity theft is just a big thing, and it isn't just about your credit score.

  • Started having panic attacks on a daily basis. They wake me up in the middle of the night. Too afraid to sleep now. Fun.

    On the bright side, my cat has started taking care of me. Whenever I wake up in a panic, he's there. He puts his paws on my chest and purrs while licking my face. He's a sweetheart.

  • Funny Ha Ha, or funny as in odd. Cause I can go with either one.

  • Nah, just a genetic predisposition since my mother had them. The anxiety comes with clinical depression. They really just come out of nowhere and I can't do anything to stop them except wait them out.

  • It's pretty hard to relax because every time I have one it literally feels like I'm in a life or death situation lol. But I do take medicine and practice meditation to get me through which helps a lot.

  • Not that serious though, but I got UE4 today, and I'm just thinking on what genre of videogame i'm gonna make.

    Probably like Telltale's episodic games, eh, i'm not sure.

    I've read the f.a.q. regarding the 5% gross revenue I'll have to pay for the devs of UE and that's too much work to do in calculating how much I'll have to pay 4 times a year. Which may not seem much but I'll have to track my income up until my deadline to pay.

    Not that I'm lazy, I'm just not ready to get into the business side of the gaming industry.

    Right now i'll make games for fun and experience (I'll share it with you guys when I'm done with it! :))) )

  • Ah cool, i wish you the best. Don't give up.

  • I know when i was feeling depressed, i had to cut out a lot of things out of my life, and it really helped. Like, for example toxic people, the news, i don't know it's a daily struggle for me as well, but i try to be as optimistic as possible , and not dwell on the bad.

    I used to get panic attacks when I slept where it felt like I was drowning till I knocked myself out from lack of oxygen I was in a dream prison which suffocated me till I knocked myself out through the lack of oxygen I went through a very stressful time this was years ago but I endured it and found things which made me happy and things got better I sleep perfect now

    Lack of sleep is shown to increase unhappiness and depression so avoidance will only make it worse maybe your fear of sleep is a contributing factor as well to the panic attacks

    IMO this could be a lot of built up stress or unresolved personal problems from your past which you struggle to overcome medicine is good but it just masks the problems without dealing with underlining issues my twin was on medicine for depression and he said it was the worse thing he ever did he quit the medicine and got help in therapy and now he one of the happiest people you will ever meet.

    This also could be stress from boredom for me without the buzz I get from sport and fitness everyday I get depression if I ever go couple of days without either I get really bad depression I need it to me help reduce my stress I found out what makes me happy that's the secret to life. So do you have a hobby or activity what makes you happy and reduces stress everyday?

    I'd recommend writing songs or poetry I know you are a great singer and writing out your inner fears and concerns will help you overcome them it's a great way to express yourself and get out the inner anxiety in a positive creative way

    I'd recommend writing stories I know your a great writer so maybe this will give you that happy buzz I'm sure everyone would love to read them to

    There are so many wonderful things in the world to find happiness through you just have to find your's it's only a matter of time

    Overall this is only temporary so be excited one day you will be happy with no depression or panic attacks you must believe it to achieve it you are a very smart and determined person I know you can do it plus you have the most awesome cat ever focus on the positive elements of your life

    Your already an awesome person you are just dealing with some minor issues which will be fixed everything is going to be awesome don't worry :)

  • I know, I panic too. Usually in public though and not at home. But when my mind wont shut the f up this helps me. I recommend trying it, the worst that's gonna happen is it doesn't help.

  • God, I don't know how you can stand having them in public, that's like my worst nightmare. I'll try it, because I don't want to be afraid of public places forever. Thanks :)

  • School is physically and mentally kicking my ass. Plus, people being assholes aren't helping, luckily I've finally come to a point where I'm okay cutting them out of my life. Anxiety and Depression have been killing me but I'm over coming it, finally. Still sucks that I'm stuck with people I don't like, but, I guess I'm getting use to it...I'm glad I found this forum, it's helped me in several ways.

  • Good to see you're feeling better Golden and that this forum has helped you. Try to stay away from people who make you feel bad, and stay close to your friends (the real ones :P). My life hasn't been in its prime, so being around here has helped me to deal with it too, since I can distract myself and talk to people who feel the same way.

  • Thanks. I've really been pushing the bad people away and calling out those who are acting rude, both on the internet and real life. The Forums have taught me a lot...How to argue better, how to deal with assholes, and who to trust. It's been a great learning experience all around.

  • Good to hear you're cutting the assholes loose. Life is hard enough without letting venomous people bring you down. A bit if solitude is way better than bad company, in my opinion.

    Wow, if that's enough to make someone mad, said person has way bigger problems than unattractiveness.

  • I am, this Forum just helped me...Really deal with them.

  • I haven't really been on here often but I just remember about this thread and I think it's a really good time to vent right now. The following might be to long:

    This year might probably be one if the worse years of my life as in now. Everything has gone to shit and I feel like I am trap in a situation that's either never gonna end or it's gonna end in a bad way. You see, I wrote on here that my anxiety was controlling my school life...well unfortunately it won. I had to drop out of school because it gotten to the point were I was afraid to go to school. I am planing to go to a once-a-week school cause I am doing a bit better thanks to therapy and meditation. I thought everything was gonna be alright but nope. I got a even bigger problem that I can't control. My family has been having issue mainly because of my dad. He accuses her of cheating even though she is not and I know this because she is always with me. We were always use to him thinking that but lately it's driving us crazy. He will go off on my mom and start accusing her of cheating until she is literarily on the corner of our house cover her ears. He will also say stuff that make me feel sick and every time I correct him he start lasting out on me too saying that I don't know anything when I know something. This situation has gotten so bad to the point where people have been arrested. He sometimes does physical abuse to her like throws her stuff. We contacted the police and they said that there is nothing that they can do until someone get hurt physically. My mom went to jail a few days ago because she hit my dad as self-dense and guess what? They arrested her but when he did stuff like burn her clothes he doesn't get arrested. I been through so much more with this situation that it's feels like it's not gonna end. Everybody's asleep right now but I now when I am wake up, they gonna pretend everything is fine but by the end of the day they will be fighting...like always...

  • Ouch. That's a pretty bad situation, I am sorry. :(

    Have you tried talking to your dad while he was calm or something?

  • Hopefully you can get away from those people at some point. That's what I'm gonna do. It's becoming more and more apparent than me that my dad and I are just completely different people.

  • I keep trying, luckily what I said before is the truth "For every one person that hates me, a dozen more likes me."

    I wish you luck, family troubles are always the hardest.

    First off your anxiety and decisions make sense anyone in your position would have to quit school over that amount of stress I'm so sorry for you being in this situation and the affect it had on your life

    This situation is complex there is no quick fixes I could offer I'd just be ignorant if I taught I could but I would strongly recommend a family meeting tell your dad when his calm how you feel and what affect it is having on you and your family

    I would also tell your mam to

    I wish you the best of luck

  • That sucks, you know i grew up in a unhappy home too. It pretty much ruined me on relationships with people/others. I hope everything works out for you, seriously. Hopefully you dad will get the message, that that behavior isn't acceptable.

    Maybe you should try to write him a letter, mail it to him. So if he has something physical, he can reflect back on it. I know with me, my weakness is guilt.
