At one point I had a middleweight built to the weight limit, then RA2 crashed.



And I have no dad :/

Hmm, let's run through what is my life.

Went headfirst through a glass door when I was four, requiring surgery on my right eye. Another inch lower and I would have lost it.
Went to primary school with one conniving little sh*tbag who managed to turn the rest of the school against me. (He has now made someone pregnant. Ha ha.)
Dad left just before I went up to High School.
Spent the first two years of high school with exactly one friend thanks to new conniving sh*tbags.
Lost almost all faith in humanity about a year or so ago.

And now I spend my time as a student in my room eating Haribo and playing badly made video games. =D Life is good.

Where should I start?
Well; In Year 3 I acquired a stutter (In Year 5 I lost it) and then I got it again in Year 6 (I'm in Year 8 now and still have one, just not as bad).
Fun, fun, fun....

For me one of the worst thing (in my opinin) was my elementary school years.

In grade 2 I developed dyslexia and some other problems to do with it. No one knew I had it, they all thought I was not putting out the effort saying "I'v seen you do before you can do it again! Why are you repelling? You used to do this all the time!" so on and so forth. This went on for 7 years and then they found out but the damage was already done. Now I don't care if I fail by not doing home work I simply won't do it. Its very hard to get out of that mind set that's bin there for years.

Well...

Early on in school life, I generally used to get picked on a great deal, for having different interests to everyone else (Don't know why- it seems if you don't like something a lot of people like these days, you're not even human to them), and with some social problems brought about by my condition (I was a bit awkward around people and tended to get angry or confused), it lasted a long time. That hurt, but the worst was yet to come.

Soon, I found this group of people, who shared my interest, and initially seemed like a friendly bunch. I'd go to their club, but before long, they started belittling me and insulting me at every opportunity. I tried to ignore it most of the time, considering how things were much worse off before, when it was absolutely everyone- even the Year Sevens!
Therefore, I stayed in the group without any question, up until Year Ten, when they'd begun stealing my stuff and destroying it (Without my knowledge on it), before sending it back to me.
 
So when I realised and called them out on it, they flat-out told me that they were only nice to me early on because they felt sorry for me, and that I was never their friend in the first place. Having been seemingly friends with them for the best part of three years, it was a crushing realisation, having also been picked on quite a while alongside it.
Since then, I generally spend school time alone, get occasional bouts of near-suicidal depression, and now have a very hard time trusting people in general.
In my day-to-day life, I do have plenty of acquantances now, but barely anyone I can really call "friends" as such.

Because of my being an agnostic; or, in teenager logic (that is, no logic) that means athiest in redneck Oklahoma. So because most people there or Baptist or some other division of Chrisianity, I am often belittled. This ammount of retardation was starting to get to me. So, I would respond logicly. They would say ''YOU'RE AN ATHIEST YOU'RE GOING TO HELL BLAH BLAH BLAH'' After hearing this some much, from one person especially, I just punched him in the face when the teachers were not looking. It's not the thing, but atleast it stopped.

Hmm, confuses me why both of you (NFX and GF) have these problems, you both seem to be great people, even if we only know each other through the internet, that much seems clear to me.

Personally, I haven't really had to suffer with problems like that for a long time now, but most of my problems nowadays are linked to similair experiances i've had in my past, so I know how damaging those feelings can be.

Quoted for truth. It seems that in school, if you're gay, have red hair, Asperger's, freckles, glasses or a different accent, you're not considered human. Bloody idiots.

Damn...just...damn. How you've managed to survive under all those circumstances is quite remarkable. But hopefully, if there's anything I can do to help, or if you want to talk about anything, I'm always available.

That's the trouble with Backwards Evangelism- everyone seems so fixated on believing it, even if it's blatantly not true. Trust me man, it's good to believe what you want to believe in- be your own man, and don't let the ramblings of those idiots get to you.
And well done on punching out the bully, too- good to see somebody taking a stand against it.

It gets bettah. The guy whom was belittining me for being ''athiest'' was on the football team. So, of course since, (he was quarterback) was on the football team, he told all of them, and since they are all meatheads whom I hate, I got a nice ass-kicking. They ganged up on me, I kicked a few in them in the nuts, I ran, they tackled me, and when I was on the ground they presumed kicking me. Curled up in the featle postion untill they stopped, and took a short nap in the sidewalk. When I woke up I had bruises, and I told my parents, they called the school, I charged each one of them with assualt, and, since it was on school grounds, I could have sued them, but, since I'm nice, I only charged the meatheaded dumbasses. Most of them are Juvy, so things worked out in the end. I just have a brokem rib. :(

Oh yeah, I definately know about that.
Untill very recently I thought that all my friends, even the closest ones, were going to embarass me and then abandon me, infact if my mind weren't pre-ocupied with other things i'd still be worrying about that, as silly as it seems.
Anyway, that's one example, the last thing this thread needs is a glimpse into my pshycology, it's still rather messed up in there, infact that's why I don't really talk about my feelings and emotions with anybody, why I'm now doing it on an intrernet forum is beyond me actually  :confused:

Do you get bullied at my school if....

Gay: Depends. I have nothing against gays or any of the other people on this list. But I've had a bad experience with gay people, one robbed my family, another bullied me and another one cheats benefits...
Red head: You definitely get bullied if your a red head at my school.
Asperger's: I don't think anyone at my school has Asperger's.
Freckles: Sometimes.
Glasses: Mostly

I found this a perfect moment to screw with him. I told him ''yeah, OK'' And he was then like  :gawe: But I didn't drop the charges, and he's in Juvey now.  ;)

Wow, lots of people here were/are being bullied. Well I can relate cause I was bullied before, my first best friend turned into one of my bullies when middle school started. Just cause I wasn't perverted and cause I was considered weird JUST cause I wasn't like them or liked the same stuff as them, I ended up being called a p***y =P but I left that school after 2 years. I was also a sensitive kid so I took alot of things seriously...up to the point I almost attempted suicide twice. One time I tried to tell my parents about how I felt and they assumed I was manipulating them and took everything I owned away for a while and all I had left was my bed and a fan, turned my life around.

Only problem I have now is that no-one in my christian family knows I'm agnostic. Oh and I'm also dealing with the fact that my "so called" best friend is dating the girl I've liked for a long time. I'm starting to hate relationships cause this one girl made me think we were going out up to the point when she told me she "fell in love" with someone else.

That's not the best adivce, but if you make all A's and are in the honour roll like me, none of the teachers well care. Most of the teachers are my friends and kind of God parents because My Mom died when I was 2 in a car wreck and my dad divorced her a few days because he was sleeping with some slut. My dad is stilla jackass, but, when he's not drunk he can be a nice guy. I live with grand parents because of my Dad's shenanigans.

My school is like a homeschooling program, there's only like 50 or 60 kids (and only 13 in my class) so they'll know. Well, my parents divorced twice. I used to stay over at my dad's house on weekends but he started drinking with his buddies from work at home. He's not that bad now though.

The reason I seem to be a great person is that IRL I had nobody that I fitted in with around me. Whereas online, I can find groups of people that I can share a common interest with and get along with. Here, for instance. I can actually enjoy myself instead of feeling miserable and having nothing to do. Plus I don't get punched in the face online. =D

My life has been uphill since about sixth grade. I moved to a new school in fifth grade and at first A lot of people made fun of me. Although It bothered me at first I just tried to be friends with everyone and it has paid off. Im a senior in a school of 1500 and haven't had a problem in several years. My message to all struggling is this just keep kicking because it will get better. The road may be rough but in the end you will reap the rewards trust me.

Same for me man. Junior at my high school. Bullied for a good portion of my younger life, had some bouts of depression, got over it myself, and got myself out there. Sometimes "being yourself" isn't the best way to stop bullying. For me I kind of just naturally have let everything slide. Nearly nothing gets to me anymore, and I really love it. People can say whatever they want and I normally wont hold a grudge.

Also at my school:
Gay: Don't think we have any
Red head: Not bullying, but we make jokes sometimes (one of the teachers calls the kid "cherry cola" lol)
Asperger's: I don't think anyone at my school has Asperger's.
Freckles: No ridicule
Glasses: No ridicule
Accent: We actually like people more because of this.

We only have 300+ students, so not much of a sampling size. Everyone who used to be a bully has fallen to drugs, so they stay out of my hair nowadays. We also <3 our foreign exchange students (and their accents) and our school only has a few redheads. By the way, the only redhead in my grade (Mr. Cherry Cola), plays baseball, basketball, and soccer. Starter in all 3, and the soccer team just won the state championships. Needless to say he is rather popular (and he's a cool guy).

We have a rather chill school, and a lot of nice, funny, random people.

Ah, interesting thread.



I was molested by my brother twice when I was five, I have been fat my entire life (but I lost five pounds today \o/), my mother died of some kind of heart failure about a year or two ago. I have had bouts of depression, even suicidal thoughts. Managed to talk myself out of it. I am pretty much emotionless. I find the best way to get people to stop picking on me is to confuse them with science-y words and Monty Python references.



Never once been in a fight. I am a big guy who likes peace, except in RP threads.

The Hydrovian Revolution.

It's   filled with masochism, willpower and trance music. It involves eating   less than a skinny person (with a normal metabolism), walking   approximately 4 kilometers a day, and not caring about tiredness,   hunger, and pain. And lots and lots of trance music.


Pretty damn effective.

*continues not eating breakfast or lunch and only a light snack for dinner, while walking to and from school even though he could easily take the bus, while simultaneously using trance as a way to not notice the tiredness, hunger and pain, as well as the weakness from not eating much at all.

When I still lived with my dad, he brought home another skank (this was about 4 years ago) I still hadn't known that he had been cheating on Mom, and my Dad was dead to me for two years. I was kinda heavy back then, but I lost weight by malnutrition, because something hit me when I saw him banging that slut. And...yeah.

I like my weight loss plan.


I feel myself getting skinnier all the time.


Like, I can see less of me and more of the ground now.



Reminds me, on the way home, Kujii (his house in en route to mine) kept complaining about the weight of the turkey he was carrying (he has a poor family, so the school gave him one for Thanksgiving) and I kept saying "we're only a mile away from it". That was fun.

You get dizzy and I feel nothing. I seem to be getting to be getting kinda like the characters I RP as. Strong, lean (well, leaner, after all i lost five pounds today alone and two while sleeping last night), agile (not as much, but I have excellent balance), impervious to pain, hunger and tiredness...

You have a high metabolism.

And before I started this weight-loss program, I would feel weak (like, weak enough to not be able to walk) and almost pass out. Now I don't feel any of that.

Time for the VEVO to talk about his belatedly wierd life

*pull up a chair its goin to take a while*

As early as i can remember

A few months before my 5th (or was it 6th) birthday, i suffered from mumps. Fortunately it was minor (Cos major causes imflammatory testicles)

about a few months later. Fell off a bar and smacked the back of my head, which split the back of my head open. About 3-4 stiches

fast foward a few years. I fall in love with a new girl. Asked her out after a few weeks. Somehow people found out and i got stick for it, only cos we were different and the fact people found her slight Scottish accent funny. It did wind me up. Then my brother found out and i did not hear the end of it for weeks. But before the start of year 4. She told me she was leaving to back to Scotland. Other than that im my primary school i was well respected. Many people knew me and understood me (As far as i know i was the only autistic) Then all that changed

By year 7. The 1st few weeks started well. Until i got punched in the face by a year 8 (To this day i still dont know his name) From here on out. My life very slowly went down the crapper. Now i think ive reached rock bottom. Being called "Weirdo" and "Spazz" The latter makes me chase the guy down and tackle the hell outta them. I feel rather pushed aside at home. My brother treats me like a bag of sh*t all my life. My sister could cause murder and blame me for it and gets away with it everytime
My only true friends either at my school or moved.

So theres my crappy life in a nutshell.

@Nary the fairy: You are one unemotional knobhead you know that?

EDIT: At the start of the year had a breakdown over my phobia of death with plagued my mind till it turned 15

Wait, you dated in yr 4??


I dated the hottest girl at my old school in year 4. We fell out the year after, but remained close friends till last year, when we moved schools (I'm now at Cheltenham College).


So anyway, my story... Expect 4-5 pages here folks.


At the very start, when I first joined my old school, everyone loved me. I was that sort of person. However, a lot of people matured in year 5/6, whilst I matured a year after, making me look like a complete twat. It slowly went downhill, until I was the subject of a mass cyber-bullying. There were 2 guys who did it. One of them sent me angry, racist hate messages (calling me a fat jewish four eyed asshole - at the time I had glasses, I now have contact lenses, which are awesum); and the other created a facebook group entitled "abingdon is gay!!!" - Yes, my surname is Abingdon. Your new fact of the day. You will not believe how many people joined that group.


Now, during a time when I visited a friends house along with several other people, I had a nervous breakdown (I think I was 12 at the time). Basically what happened was that my enemies little bitch of a sister was going around hitting the same guy with a stick, claiming that it was hers, not his. I told her to stop it, as it could hurt him. She then started hitting me with the stick. I pushed her away and took the stick from her, and broke it in two. Now she has two older ****ers brothers, who I shall identify as T and G. She lied to T and G that I beat her up, so T cornered me in a bathroom threatening to beat me up. I then had a nervous breakdown, and I was dragged away in tears, severely wounded after I tried to kill myself by hitting my head on the wall, or anything that I could find, really. And then just before I left, their Mum spoke to me, telling me that it was MY fault that it happened, and that I was in the wrong. Later on, as a joke, I tagged G in a funny picture, and he then commented on it saying that he found it so funny that I tried to kill myself in the bathroom saying kill me now, kill me now.


So, my next school hosted something called "The Cheltenham College 24 Hours". This was hosted when I was still at my old school, and I hadn't matured yet. Not quite the very best start.


So when I arrived properly to my next school, a lot of people still considered me to be that. But, due to my status (cousin in Midnight Beast, was on How the Other Half Live etc.), I was by and large, considered "O.K.". But people soon realised that I had different interests to them (I like Robot Wars, Design Technology and Harry Potter, whilst they like rugby and football etc.), and I was slowly being avoided, with the occasional mocks and jeers thrown at me. But I did get on pretty well with everyone. You're probably not aware of this, but me and my neighbours make amateur parodies of films. Atm we're making a parody of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. So I needed a girl (preferably a good looking one) to play the part of "Binny Sneazley". So I asked a girl who I got along with pretty well if she wanted the part over Facebook. BIG MISTAKE. It just so happens that she is the centre of the gossip sector. So now the whole school knows about that, and that classified me as "Weird".


And then it cleared up, and life resumed. Until very recently. See my other thread, as I can't be arsed to rewrite all of that again.


So yeah, my life is up and down. I've had about 6 suicide attempts.


The End.


EDIT: W00T!! 1000th post!! I kinda wasted it though...

Yes. This is basically cancer medicine. Stops cells from dividing, makes your skin cells go completely dry. It has a lot of potential side effects (including some hardcore stuff like impaired night vision; cataracts; optic neuritis; menstrual disturbances; inflammatory bowel disease; pancreatitis; hepatitis; corneal opacities; papilloedema; idiopathic intracranial hypertension; skeletal hyperostosis; extraosseous calcification; psychosis; depression), and not every doctor will be willing to prescribe it. But if this doesn't work, then the only other thing that will is a bullet to the head.

I am not unemotional, I simply try to  completely remove emotions I consider useless. Like... despair, regret, hate, anger, sadness. And function on reason.

However, while perfectly possible with enough willpower this is hard, especially that I seem to be naturally lazy.

What's the point of this thread exactly ? People BAWWWing about how their life is hard ?
Well, mr stoic, something/things must have happened to you to push you to this point.
Why don't you tell us, before we tear down your "wall"  :mrgreen:

I did not say that you should never let out your emotions... a man of reason still can feel emotions, he just chooses them and monitors them carefully. Not to feel pain, regret, loss, fear and other negatives, but seek for joy, enlightment, amazement and other positives. You can perfectly laugh at a clever joke, enjoy a good meal/discussion/other thing...

When I was 3/4 there was a child gate thing that stopped me from going up the stairs in my house. I was pulling on it and it fell off and cut me right under my eye. The shirt that I was wearing was red with blood, I have bad vision in both of my eyes; especially in the one that got cut and I have a scar just under my eye.

Then when I started school I made 2 friends: Asher and Alex. I left school for the summer holidays and when I came back, they weren't there. That was the last time that I saw either of them.

After that I made some friends that are still my friends today and go to my school. They are probably my best friends.

Now I'll skip a couple of years to when I was 10. I moved my arm and my shoulder cracked. I dislocated my collar bone and it's still dislocated today. They (the hospital) can't do anything until I'm fully grown.

In that year, I also had to have an operation. Then when I was sent home, I was still drowsy from my anaesthetic. I couldn't walk and they sent me home. That was fun.

In that year, I also fell down some concrete steps and smacked my head. I got knocked out for a while and I couldn't walk for a week. My leg was really swollen.

The year after that, my foot got wedge under a massive screen thing. It was really swollen...

Then last year I was in P.E and I broke my finger. My hand was black and the bone in my finger was broken clean in two. My P.E teacher said that my finger would be fine but he was wrong. I thought he was meant to be good with bones... >_>

Also, people in my class have been taking the mic out of me. They'll take the mic out of how I speak, what I like etc.

Then my parents got divorced about 7 months ago. After that, I didn't speak to anyone for about a week and that definitely changed the person that I am today.

I practically live in hospital as well. I have problems with my joints (I might have arthritis) and I'm only 12. :/

Meh. My life has sort of been a rollercoaster. Now it's sorting itself out. Sort of.

@Naryar - Meh. I think that there's a line between showing your emotions normally and trying to completely get rid of your emotions.

I have a feeling that I've forgotten something as well...

Im more of a nice guy than you are. You dont care about others emotions. Whilst i on the other hand, care about others, respect there feelings and in a thread like this, were people talk about suicide, i can sympathize with them as i have been down the same road.

I'll share my story then.


Started skewl at 4, there was a kid who bullied me and a few others but he stopped after a while.

Made friends with a kid I'll call Macabee.

Macabee and me were the best of friends for a few years, he was also friends with a kid I'll call Delcy.

Me and Delcy we always fighting to be Macabee's best friend, in the end I won.

After that me and Macabee made friends with a kid I'll call Staff, me and Staff got along fine but sometimes Macabee could get annoyed with him.

A few years later Macabee started saying that he hated Staffy so I stopped hanging out with Macabee.

This infuriated him and he started saying stuff about me which he still does to this day.

I'm still friends with Staff but his mother f*cked up our friendship last week and I'm not allowed to see him anymore.


Nowhere near as bad as the others, just thought I'd share.

Not to feel pain, regret, loss, fear and other negatives, but seek for joy, enlightment, amazement and other positives. You can perfectly laugh at a clever joke, enjoy a good meal/discussion/other thing...

So, stoicism?
Yeah that's what he keeps saying.
I highly doubt anybody can really call themselves full stoics though.

Not even those as disputably evil and powerful as Nary.

Yeah, even he will find it impossible.
One of these days a 7 year old will come on here, try to clone HazCon and fail.
Then, before you know it, Nar's little heart opens up  ;)

I agree.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laments_%28Treny%29 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laments_%28Treny%29)

"The poems express Kochanowski's boundless grief; and, standing in sharp contrast to his previous works, which had advocated such values as stoicism, can be seen as the poet's own critique of his earlier work. In a wider sense, they show a thinking man of the Renaissance  at a moment of crisis when he is forced, through suffering and the stark confrontation of his ideals with reality, to re-evaluate his former humanistic philosophy of life."

Basically this dude wrote about how fucking awesome stoicism is, then his kid died, he raged, then noticed that everything he said before was bullshit. But then he stopped being an emofag and found his way of life again.

Stoicism seeks to destroy negative/destructive emotions. It doesn't says anything about suppressing your whole emotions entirely. And i think it's awesome. I don't even want to have children, we're enough on Earth already.

And maybe I am a fool for choosing this, and maybe it is not a good idea. But guys, look at your own schools of thought and belief and ask you the same question...

More like Nar's large pride will shine, and because of this he MIGHT help the little guy if he's not a second LRA2.

Didn't the original Greek stoics kept away from sex and procreation ?

By the sounds of it, you're keeping away from more than just sex and procrastination ;P

And limiting some of your emotions is certainly doo-ible  :mrgreen:
Blocking all of them out, is not.

Stoicism seeks to destroy negative/destructive extreme emotions.

Bad stuff that happened to me....
I used to go to a GREAT private school, but then due to jobs, I had to move to a state school hundreds of miles away...
Being at this school changed me from a "Normal" average boy of my age to a cocky d***...
My life sucks.

Sad that you let your environment influence you more than your ideas...

And cocky ? You don't look like a cocky guy to me.
