Defeat!!

Do you ever want to just give up? Quit trying? Admit defeat?

Just get too tired of coping, dealing, arguing, sorting?

With relationships, work, friends, kids, everything?

Would you admit it?

You're pretty much summed up my last 10 days. <g>

And, I guess I just admitted it.
V~
 
Defeat of deduct went over defense before detail.....oops wrong thread!

:eek: :D
 
NEVER!
Life's too damn precious and too damn short.
When it knocks me down I just get up and keep on keepin on.
 
I don't quit that often except at video games, heh. But in real life I hardly ever quit.
 
Yes, I have done that...

Crawled into bed and told everyone to just leave me alone...

But I can't handle it for long, somehow I always finally pull myself back up.

Sometimes it takes a few days, sometimes weeks, but so far I've always managed to climb out of the rut and smile :)
 
Just remember to take care of yourself. Everyone needs a little help sometimes, and you're not wonder woman.

Nervous breakdowns aren't fun.
 
Nope

Never alowed to admit defeat... I come from a long line of very strong women... Tey've always taught me that there's always a way to get through something...
 
There are days...
when the weight of it all seems so much that I wonder how I go on but at least so far I've managed. Mostly I think it's my son who pulls me through, or at least it's his presence in my life. Knowing he's there keeps me focused.

But I do understand your feelings, Lioness. Truly I do.
 
Must win! Must win! Kill kill kill ;)

Never give up, never surrender! Just change the game plan ;)
 
Yes.

Lately, at times, my emotions resemble what the inside of a washing machine must feel like to the clothing: swirling round, soaking wet, soggy, sodden, up, down, sideways, in and out and soapy. Then someone dumps 'em in the dryer...

Yeh. The blues get us all. There's often no discernable no reason or rhyme or passion or promise behind it, either. That just makes it suck all the harder, doesn't it?

Here's a thread from elsewhere at Lit on this very thing. There's some good advice here if you want to have a look. http://www.literotica.com/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=79562

I never stay down for too long, though, thank the gods - though it sure feels like a long time when i'm there. You?

Do you ever want to just give up? Quit trying? Admit defeat?

Yes, in the past I have felt like giving up.
My first marriage was violent and I had two young kids.

Just get too tired of coping, dealing, arguing, sorting?

Yes. Struggling, trying all the time. But
nothing was ever good enough.

Would you admit it?

I never admitted it at the time.
But It was like I was on auto pilot.
Numb and almost physical, mentally and
emotionally completely drained.
I nearly lost myself to the misery that
was my life.

Having good friends helped a lot. It was
hard to admit it but whatever works when
you need help is ok. We can't always be
strong and on top of things. Friends and family
got me through. My kids were my little shining
lights at the end of a very long dark tunnel.

To anyone feeling this way, be well and take care of
yourself. :rose:
