Comment: I said pretty much the same thing

except in my case I 'had it all' when I started thinking 'what's the point' then decided to do what I really wanted to do and.... abracadabra... massive life changes and all, eventually, for the better. His reply to me: Your post tells me exactly how out of touch you are.
I guess I'm 'out of touch' because I 'had' and he's 'had not' which is absolute crap because he has a roof over his head, food, and family except it's not from his own effort but his parents. He can't understand that feelings of desperation happen regardless if you have or have not. A feeling is a feeling and causation is irrelevent.
ryno is incapabable of relating to most of the suggestions on this thread and prefers the comments that join him in his pity party. He's lost any sympathy he may have had from me.
