Had a bad day
Hello, this is my first post. Im sorry it couldnt be with happier times but Im really feeling quite low at the moment.
First of all, I crashed my car. Well I didnt crash it, somebody drove into the side of me while I was turning right at a mini roundabout & it is completely wrecked. The whole side door & rear panels are smashed in plus a huge crack in the windshield , a massive crease in the roof, plus the engine & steering & brakes are broke. Its a write-off. I wasnt that bothered at the time, but now Im almost shaking with shock when I re-register what actually happened. Just one minute I was driving along on my way to the bank & then BANG!. I was span out in the middle of the road, & other cars beeping & shouting at me to get out of the way! Like I could!
And then I received a phone call from one of my friends, telling me that one of my best mates of 16 years (Im 20) tried to hang himself on Tuesday night. He actually had the belt hanging around his neck from the banister & was hanging there. If the other male housemate wasnt there, he would be dead.
Both times I went through these shocking events, I was fine until afterwards when the reality of both situations hit me in how serious there were. I swear I was almost in tears. I just feel completely out of my depth & am just numb. Whenever Im left alone with my thoughts, I cant help but stray to the incidents. Sorry if this is all rambling crap, my mind is all over the place at the moment

I'm so sorry for you, really is the day from hell, theres not much I think I can say but I hope you are ok and my thoughts are with you, at least the car can be replaced I guess, just a bit too much reality for one day I would imagine.

Thank you. Im glad I wasnt hurt, I mean it could have been so much worse but I feel more vunerable. Its just brought home how easy life can be lost, mine or someone elses
The car isnt a big deal. It was only a Rover Metro. Its just the inconvinience of not having a car which has pissed me off Honestly you dont realise how much you need your car when its gone. Especially when its not your fault! 
I know I've had the same thing, really sucks going from being independent to dependent, and add to that the fact that you've had your mortality brought home to you, its fairly emotional

Yeah, there is so many little things you dont realise you use your car for. And now its is just gone. Just because some boy racing fool thought he would just ignore my right of way on a roundabout.
And dont get me started on my best mate. From 4 years old we were inseperable

You give way to the right on roundabouts.
But he was going straight on. I was turning right. He should have stopped. Im quite aware of my Highway code thank you. I worked bloody hard for it

It doesn't matter where he was going. If he was on the roundabout or you both approached at the same time and he was to the right of you you should have given way. This is why your car is now written off.

Very sympathetic
You're meant to try and make the op feel better not worse!Shreerac1

Are you saying I dont know what happened? I was turning across the roundabout, halfway across & then BANG! Even he admitted it. The reason my car is written off is because of an all too easy accident. Hell even I didnt blame him because it happened so fast. Im not a bad driver, I passed with only 3 minors, even my control freak parents admit Im a good driver (after a lot of pressing). Dont pretend you know what happened because you wern't there. No offence
Aw dude, I hadda bad day too, went on a date with this girl and it was ****:
It was a bad day, we had a slow dance, she felt something stir in my CK pants.
She called you a pig, a slap in the face, a knee to the groin and a whole can of mace.
This really mad date then went contrite, she was clutching my leg, cooing "You're Mr Right..."
Such a bad day,
with a f***ed up, mad date
At the end of the day, I got over it. So chill out!

firstly at least ur ok and ur car can be fixed. im glad your friend was saved and maybe u can get him some help and sort out his problems.
Mmmm, that really is a bad day... Bit of blinder, really.
Hopefully the car accident hasn't shaken you up too much. I wouldn't worry about the angry motorists sounding their horns. Sometimes people are utterly unreasonable. In a previous job I had someone complain to me that an ambulance was parked in way of our car park. I was like, "Err, yeah, ok." As it happened, the lady upstaires was suspended so I wasn't about to ask the ambulance crew to stop doing CPR and move the vehicle! Just forget about the people shouting at you to move...
As for your mate, that really does sound nasty. Have you got someone to talk to about it? Someone who knows him as well as you do? There are various professional and free advice lines who'll be able to offer advice and stuff about how you might be able to help, how people cope when friends/loved ones try and comitt suicide. I can't say it's a position I've ever been in tho'.
I hope things get better for you.
