Ever had a day that was just too hard?

[Tank]

Meh - I know that there are lots of people who are having days, far, far, far worse than me. Getting news that loved ones have been hurt, that the lump is cancer, that their pet has died.

But seriously, the last day has been hard, really, really hard. Its like th fight has been pulled right out of me. I could just lie down and go to sleep.

Its the kind of feeling that makes you just pack up everything, and go bush, no phones, no people, fucken nothing.

Ive got another situation to address tonight - I just cant think of anything worse than having to deal with another person today.

Past being stressed - just so fucking down.

Hooping that tomorrow turns out to be a better day.

thus ends the rant of tank.

Sounds to me like you need to go and do something you enjoy - get out on the bike.

Cancel your next appointment/ meeting and go and refresh yourself by riding on a sunny day (can't be too many of these left this summer so you might as well enjoy it).

Those other things might look a bit less daunting afterwards as well.

Edit - two years ago today my missus was diagnosed with malignant cancer. Shit of a day which I don't think I'll ever forget but you know what we did? We thought "fuck it", jumped in the car (before I got into biking) and went on a road trip for a few days. Best thing we could have done.

All turned out good so far but, on that day, we just needed to get out and enjoy life.

yep, I hear ya on this one...some days just aren't worth getting out of bed for.....but we must.
We carry on in the knowledge that tomorrow is a new day with new opportunities blah blah blah....bullshit.

Sometimes life just sucks, and not in a good way.

I hear that this palce: http://www.mustangs.co.nz/ is pretty good for cheering yourself up.

They give you a bit of pampering and some TLC.

Before you know it you'll e as right as rain :)

I'll have to stop picking on you then! :laugh:

Hope your day improves. If it wasn't for the downpissing rain and wind, I'd also suggest you go for a ride. Me, I'm wondering how late it has to be before I break out the single malt.

[Gone Burger]

I agree with Wild Western... Perhaps a decent ride might help? Its a stunning day (well at least it is in Wellington) and nothing seems to beat a great ride on a great day to take your mind off things.

It seems that every once in a while, you do have a day or two like this, and it absolutely sucks. I too had one recently, and it was being out on my bike that made it all better (at least for a moment). Or if you can escape for the weekend to somewhere new, with someone fun, that is always pretty good medicine too, or even alone.

I believe days like this are real tests. To see how we will cope, if it will change us, and what we do to get through them. You'll feel so much better when this day is well behind you, and you are in the middle of a different, and a great day! I made a customers day today by simply being happy, smiling, and asking how HE was? Until then, he said he was having an aweful day and just wanted it to end. A small gesture of kindness and a smile can really make such a difference, and I too feel so much better for it.

All the best, no one like to have a complete and utter shit day.

[cowboyz]

They are still making days and another ones due tomorrow.

Nothing wrong with chucking the day away and starting fresh.

Didn't realise there was a stated time for sitting back in the chair, cracking the seal and slowly drifting into unconsciousness... :yes:

If all else fails, crack a bottle, break out the "classic" pron and see iffen you can find yourself a 14yr old slapper :shifty:

[avgas]

Yeah Fuck it........fucking stoopid day today is
I can't be fucked working
Also I want to be able to talk caps on here.

[cindymay]

Do something different, go somewhere you have not been to, get out of the house, office - smell the air. Go for a ride :yes:

[Stirts]

Sounds like you are in dire need of a mental health day Mr Tank!

This time of year sucks that big fat one really! And I truly believe that we as a species are supposed to go into hibernation mode for the coming winter. I can't belive how many people have described to me some of the same feelings you are feeling right now.

Go into hibernation mode for a day at least! You will feel heaps better for it!!

[CookMySock]

At least you are well enough to go to work. Some people can't even face that.

Try living off $400 a week after tax, you'll think twice about taking a day off, even if you do feel like topping yourself rather than working.

Well for what it's worth......................I have number of lifes little philosophies that have never let me down.

Here's one. TODAY IS GOING TO BE BETTER THAN YESTERDAY AND TOMORROW IS GOING TO BE BETTER THAN TODAY.


Do with that what you will...........................'Hope' has nothing to do with anything other than to acknolwledge you are not in control

I'm starting to wonder who the homo is who hacked into Tank's log-on.

Award yourself. It'll make you feel better.

Shooting, Tequila, a shag, and good nights sleep solved it. Im back to my bad old self.

I think I just had one of those "too hard" days. And they really are hard. It's difficult to remember that tomorrow is another day, and one to start again, take a different direction. On a really bad day, like today, you can't see the big picture. Only the issues that hit you in the face. These days are aweful, and sometimes you have to be bloody strong to get through them. I'm soft, need to learn to be strong. Perhaps today is my day to do so...?
