Have you been seeing a therapist or anything? (You don't have to answer that, if it makes you uncomfortable.) If not, I would consider it if I were you.

I don't, but I have considered it.

If you've been feeling down since September (which is almost 9 months now), I'd recommend it.

Thanks, I really need to get to that.

Thing is, I know exactly why I'm upset, but I can't fix that. Therapy is only going to do so much.

Well, maybe. But he or she might be able to help you deal with it. I know us guys hate it when we can't fix things, but sometimes it helps to hear a professional's advice on how to deal with things we can't fix.

True. I just need to figure out a good time to do it though.

I feel like this isn't really a problem you need to tackle head on, so seeing a therapist could help you see other things that could make it better.

I think you could benefit a lot by setting some easily accessible goals and working towards them. It could be anything, like giving yourself a list of books to finish reading, a list of songs to learn, or getting in shape and going to the gym and stuff. I definitely feel like my life isn't going anywhere sometimes but the fact that I'm going to the gym and at least bettering myself in some way honestly makes me a lot happier. The best summer I've ever had was one where I ran upwards of 200 miles, because I was constantly pushing myself to run further and longer. Even though I had actually intended to run a lot further, I still felt really, really good at the end of the summer. I need to get running again this summer actually, it really improves my mood and helps me chill out about everything.

Thanks for the advice. Soon I'm going to start walking/lifting weights again because the weather is already really nice here.

Yeah as always I'm trying to better myself. For now I really have to concentrate on school though.

I'm faced today with a moral/ethical dilemma. Wish me luck on sorting it out today, because it's not really clear cut case. How do you guys usually deal with these type of situations?

Idk really what you're talking about, can you be more specific?
