Dude this thread is like stress relief for people there is no need to call people out on things like that and to be honest you made yourself look rather ignorant if you have nothing positive to say then don't. I believe this thread is a good idea for the ability to just vent things as it takes it off your chest. and just my two pennies hows is he attention seeking? he confessing what he has done which is the point of the thread. and im sure as hell you would have regretted it. had 'cude stood up to your point and killed himself.

I thought you were against guns, which is also kind of against military?

Some people just need a place to vent, this place happens to be Cuda's. It may come off as him looking for attention, but it sure is better than keeping it all bottled up until he snaps.

Navy doesn't use weapons all the time...my cousin wanted to be a parachute maker.( don't know the correct military term for it) I always thought that I was an attention whore but man, you need a positive outlook cuda.
 
Anes
I reckon he should go join the Army or the Navy or something. Endless structure and consequence would fix him right up.

I might be insensitive, but sometimes it's the only way people will listen.

No. He needs to seek medical help, not the military. Going into the military in his state holds the possibility that he may actually go through with suicide. He already says he relies on his friends & alcohol as his life line. He needs to get that sorted first & foremost.

If he goes into the military, runs into an issue where he just can't do something, he'll look for his life line to fall back on unable to find it, and go through with his actions. Some people do commit suicide in the military when they hit a hard spot in training & don't want to seek help, and I guarantee you, that 'Cuda would fit that profile.

What he needs is an intervention, which means someone in his family or friends needs to step up and take him to rehab, even against his will. He doesn't need someone like you giving him poor advice, so how about you just stay out of the discussion all-together since you seem to have the mindset that the military can fix anybody.
 
Anes
If he's smoking weed he's not going to care about drinking laws...




I'll say it a 3rd time. Join the defence force 'cuda. I know you won't do it. Why? Because it will fix you, and you don't want that.

Yeah, the army is such an effective and well proven method for fixing people who have mental issues!

And what works for you works for everybody, right? I have known a lot of people who have improved some pretty ****** life situations through the military. It teaches discipline and accountability, something that is often lacking in today's society.

There's a difference between someone who's been in trouble with the law/been a little toe-rag (AUP friendly nftw) being "corrected" by the forces (which is a great benefit to society, don't get me wrong), and someone with a clincial illness who needs professional medical help.
 
I nominate tlowr4 for a GTP Award®.

My confession: I'm enjoying this discussion. I can safely say I saw it coming since around six months ago.

I saw it coming aswell.
I think that none of us know cuda enough to say whether the military would solve it or not or whether rehab would be best.

My confession is. I was the person who locked Kaz in the Bog and therefore caused this whole delay. ;)

What is with you guys and these odd beliefs that cuda just wants attention? Yes, attention is just a component of the cry for help, which is what cuda is doing, even if he vehemently insists that he is not.

As he says, he is trying to get these thoughts out of his head, which is actually very productive and theraputic. It acts like a journal, which is a tool that is often encouraged by therapists.

I'd refrain from telling him to join the military. Beside the fact that the US military has a current crisis with a growing number of suicides, an organization that creates a bond through mutual brutalization is not a healthy situation for someone with suicidal thoughts; it is going to push them over the edge.

Keep writing cuda.

And Anes et al: If cuda is just in need of attention, then I really don't see his posts as being any different from those who post on these forums with venom for everyone and everything, except that cuda's need was accomplished without cheeky comments.
 
I'm sorry everyone, I'll try to keep it down. I guess it is quite a personal thing to talk about and I'm sorry if I seemed like I was craving attention. Believe me, the last thing I want is any more support.

The army, no thanks man. I don't feel like being a part of anything that takes anyone's life for some big governments problem.

My current plans are to switch to the tech college for their automotive program and get my certification. I was going to be an Engineer, what a laugh, but really all I want to do is work an average job and start living my life. I love working on cars, and cant wait to know absolutely everything about them.

I still have a few things to look forward too in the future, plus I've been starting to make real plans for the cuda now that she's running a million times better. I have quite a lot to update my thread about including the video of me killing the Volvo :D
 
It's probably best you aren't going for engineering, it seems like more and more engineers are put of work. However, a guy who can fix a car is always in demand. Plus if you enjoy doing it that makes work suck less.

Has he previously stated he wants to join the forces? If not then what position are you in to order him to do so, and then insult him because you know he won't?
 
I wish it was that simple of a thought to change things, but the reality is the reality is not present. When I'm to that point nobody matters, because everyone hates me for whatever reason I've come up with, or just the fact of having to look at and talk to me, so killing myself is more like doing myself and everyone else a favor in my head.

I'm honestly at some points quite mad at my friends because I think they hate me so much (to myself of course, I always at least try to put on the fake happy persona). I try to keep away from my friends sometimes and just go to a park or something. I always end up smoking though and usually give up and answer them back.

Halloween night is going to be very interesting. My friends are having a party, probably 25-30 people in their apartment which is a ton more than usual, and I don't know how I'm going to react. The few times I have drank at parties within the last few months I always end up breaking down and losing it, but those were with just 4-5 people. I think I'll probably do better around a lot of people I don't know, that's a terrible first impression. I'm ridiculously nervous because a British friend of mine is bringing her friend who apparently might have an interest in me and vice versa. I don't know what my friend told him so I'm very nervous, plus if interest is there my best guy friend plus a few other people that don't need to know that are going to be there. I don't really mind my best friend knowing, I've been meaning to tell him to get it over with, but a few other people are a definite no.

I'm not trying to insult him. It's actually my version of advice. I think 'cuda is a little melodramatic nancy boy. He needs a teaspoon of concrete and I think the defence force would toughen him up and teach him some discipline real quick. You wanna try sneaking off from your crew for drinks in the Army? Pfft good luck considering that a second time.

And since when does joining the defence force mean fighting on the front line in Afghanistan anyway. My brother in law is in the Air Force - but he maintains radar equipment. My mind totally got blown when I found out the Army employs MECHANICS.

You've contradicted yourself there because that is a pretty clear insult. I think it's about time you just let it go and stop giving Barracuda your advice.

No, it's part of my advice.

Anes
Well realistically he's no different to hundreds of millions of other people. He may think his life is unfair and harsh and he may be right. But it happens to pretty much everyone at some point in our lives. The difference is while some people mope and complain others get off their arse and work harder for a better life.

'cuda obviously isn't a leader and he seems to not have anyone to lead him, so he should go join the defence force imo.

I could e-stroke his hair and tell him everything is alright but he's got heaps of those people in this thread already. My opinion/advice = toughen up and make your life better instead of complaining about it. No one's forcing him or anyone else to listen to a complete stranger over the internet but I have tried to help in my own unique manner. Whether it's offensive or not depends on how closed your mind is.
 
Saying join the military and explaining how it's good is advice. Calling someone a melodramatic nancy boy however is not.

Now that's a better reply! How well did you finish off that Lolvo? :dopey:


Confession: I hooked up with my best friend monday. She's awesome, and said it'd never happen, but it did. Did I seriously **** up?

But don't you see? I'll call him that and tell him to toughen up. I'm giving him a chance to take a step forward right there in my post. He shouldn't care what I call him!


And now that I've had to defend my logic my genius ( :confused: ) is lost :(

Because ordering people around and calling them names is a great way to get people motivated. :rolleyes:

Can't lose what wasn't there.

And yes, that is partly in jest so I don't really want to hear about it.

I have to open his eyes before I can motivate him. It's about recognising certain situations not bindly ignoring insults :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:


In his current state he's likely to cry for 4 hours if someone insulted him.

You probably did, not because the sentimental relationship may or may not work out, but just because your friendship will never be the same again.
