"Been through bad time lately with suffering with this. Dark thoughts as well. I know some posters on here suffer with this. Anyone come through the other side of this shit?
"A number of posters have been yellow carded and told to stay off this thread unless they have anything constructive to add.This is a thread that has been very useful to so many, for any other posters with scores to settle, argue on another thread. This thread is sacrosant.Thank you"

"Bungo - nope, nothing like that here at all. The places unofficial motto is “Singapore is a fine country. It will fine you for everything” So all TV is just utter bilge and the hotels aren’t allowed to get decent stuff in. My sole non-Singaporean channel is “Fox Action Movies” which is currently showing a fucking Twilight film"

"Bungo - Singaporean TV is undoubtedly the worst TV of any developed nation I have been too. In fact, it’s probably worse than a lot of underdeveloped nations. For a country that’s so rich, I cannot understand why it’s so shit. Next year I’m probably moving over here for a year (with the wife) and will basically have to survive on Netflix and Amazon"

"I was going to suggest watching our game as I’m sure it’ll be on out there but then I didn’t realise the time difference so maybe not convenient, plus not the best when we go 3-0 down. Sorry about your Nan, but just think you’ll be back with your loved ones tomorrow. Chin up mate."

Random question joe but I think I might have got the train up to Liverpool with you one year - someone forgot the cards so we bought a game of animal snap at the station and modified it by having to impersonate the animal instead of saying snap. How the fuck do you impersonate a giraffe?! Ag If it was you - cheers if not just ignore me RIP your nan

"Good stuff. Keep busy, keep talking if you need to. Either that or go and find a Tesco supervisor and tell him to fuck off. I hear that works wonders."

"Mike Oxsaw 6:48 Sat Jan 18 An interesting thought. I think it’s the mortgage that traps most people, the stupid house prices in this country mean it’s a heavy load to bear"

"I’m in St Helens this weekend visiting a friend who is staying at a Salvation Army refuge, he suffers from severe depression and struggles to face the outside world. This is a man who I played on stage with in front of 500 people, a brilliant musician and extremely intelligent, brought down by an ex wife who cast him aside for another man, it’s a fickle old world out there."

"How many routines make a rut? The reason I ask such an inane question is that there seems to be an undercurrent of helplessness in many of the posts on here. If too much of your life is governed by (someone else's) deadlines, then it's quite possible to feel that you no longer have control of your own destiny. It probably won't be easy to regain the necessary control all at once, so ""little victories"" is probably the best way forward. Soon enough you'll have no footprints in your butter. You may never realise what the exact cause was - just as you probably can't exactly pinpoint the last time you fell in love with somebody."
