I'd like to know how other people get over the various humps in their lives. Currently I'm questioning my reason for being, and haven't found any answers I'll accept. I'm sure other people must occasionly get into this state of mind. I don't have any dependents, and I never had. I know at least a half-dozen people in this area that could do my job as well or better than I can. The only friends I have I made at work, and most of them now work somewhere else and I don't see them very often. I have no social life, because I'm always fixing problems to stop customers from screaming. The customer is screaming because some one else sat on the problem for months, and now we're way over a deadline. I gave up a social life long ago when I went for 2 degrees in four years while working part time. My social skills are nill, and I doubt that anyone would really want to associate with someone whose work is his total life. Someone called me a nerd at work today, and I just realized it must be true. I've heard that someone who attempts suicide is really looking for attention. If that is true, why have I planned my own suicide in great detail, such that it would look like an accident or a murder? I don't want my suicide to upset the few people that might care for me, whomever they are. I'm sorry this has gone on for so long. I hoped maybe letting out some of my feelings would prevent me from wrapping my car around a tree.
