Wallowing in self pity

This is more of a rant of the severly miserable, a callout for all of those who'd like to join me in my wallowing and share your own self pity....rather than seeking for advice, or even pity, I have enough of my own.

I just feel stuck in a rut, eternally bored with no escape watching everyone else have that amazingly fun summer before uni. I just want to crawl into a hole and hibernate through the coming months.
I'm so sick of everything, my life is a total waste and I need to DO something, but what! Instead of rotting at home and behind that dreaded counter at work. Go see friends? I would if they weren't all pissing off on holidays that I can't afford because my pissing job doesn't give me enough hours.
My boyfriend? Too busy being an arse...I think I might dump him, am I in the right state of mind to do that...I might regret if once I've managed to salvage any good spirits I have.Talking about spirits I could do with a drink, but oh wait he's out with his friends and their gfs...one of those affairs he won't invite me so he ends up the only solo in the group! He must really ADORE my company.

End of rant. Sorry.

Me too, im wallowing in the self pity a bit too- ive got the house for 2 weeks on my own, but instead of using that to my advantage ive ended up sitting here watching TV, and being in a bad mood. Ive been thinking things over and im bored with my life and im not sure about university. Being on my own for a long amount of time is not good for my personal health aparently.

Try to stop wallowing in your self pity and actually do something about it. Your job doesn't give you enough hours: quit and get a new one. Your boyfriend's a git - dump him and find someone else.

If you're bored, go swimming, do voluntary work... it's really not that hard. It's easy to sit around moaning all day though, but the fact is that you're the only one who can do anything to change it. :cool:

I would live in the swimming pool if I didn't have to drown.

Volunteering is great, very rewarding and gives you a real feeling of purpose. I strongly recommend it. :creep:

Charity shops are the best places. But there are all kinds of things you can get involved with. I helped disabled children in swimming lessons a few years ago, maybe you could find something like that.
i got Back from holiday 10 days ago and have only been out with freinds twice since then. I have been occuping myself at home because most of my freinds are now on holiday.

You know what, i couldnt be happier with my life right now! Well its not perfect but its pretty dam good. I have not been bored at all in those 10 days, being upset and depressed is all in your head, i have felt upset before, but right now i am stuck at home as much as you and look at me, i dont even have a girlfreind i mean how pathetic am i :p: but seriously you dont need to be going out every day to be happy.
