Amazing really what brings us here, whether we are young or old, male or female, people of all nationalities come to Viz.
What of our lives what do we do with them with the choices that we have made and where we currently are. We are all in the same place, sat at our PC's/Laptops and Tablets/Ipads for sure, but what direction will our lives take. An impasse, a block, unemployment, splitting are all normal phases of life. What is happening in your life right now? Did you ever have to start over again from scratch but with the new knowledge that you had acquired. I have the job, the relationship and house, but it is all slipping away from me and I don't know how to stop myself from falling.

Could say so. After 9th grade, I moved to another city and then my
"rebel teen" years started, I sank deep into alcohol and such and really screwed a lot of things up... After high school, nothing changed, I got a job, worked. But when I was 21, I was so sick of it all, that I quit my job and hitch-hiked to Spain and lived there for a while. That really made me re-evaluate my life, choices and principles. but that happened after a while, first I think I was more lost... After returning to Estonia, I got a job again and everything repeated itself - parties, drinking, stress, ... and then I lost my job. and then I stopped drinking. after some months I registered myself into college. that is where I am now. and the college is in another city, I knew no one when I moved here. I like it here. to me, it is starting my life all over again. yet do I regret my life? hell no. "rebel teen" years started, I sank deep into alcohol and such and really screwed a lot of things up...

Well as far as starting over, I used to be heavy into drugs and a criminal lifestyle; that changed about 8 years ago when I received Christ into my life. The current times are still trying though. I'm facing losing my residence for the 2nd time because lately I've not had a sufficient income for everything.
It really sucks because I have a 9-year old pit bull and most places won't accept dogs, let alone a pit bull. I fear that I might be homeless in 2 months if nothing changes. Reason being is that I have a very strict/ militaristic "family" that have stated that they will not allow me to stay with them. That said, I might have to start over in a negative outcome, instead of the positive of receiving Christ - God is always providing for me though, so perhaps things will change from now 'till then.

Years ago when I was in middle school, I began to hate myself. Back in seventh grade, I did well grade-wise, but I had few friends and a lot of people made fun of me and made my life Hell. The next year, I had a much better schedule so I was able to see my friends unlike the year prior, only this time I became like the people who treated me terrible. Then, sometime in ninth grade, I questioned the kind of person I was. I saw a movie that moved me to tears. I took from the movie's example to change for the better.
About a year later, I became obsessed with someone in my school. I thought things were going smoothly, however, it turned out that I was not on her mind like that so I changed again. I tried to be more masculine and I drove myself to work out. I actually got musk-culls! I actually stuck with it for a few months. However, once the next year of school began I realized that the muscles changed nothing so I lost interest in maintaining them. I was depressed for a while. Then one day she actually confronted me about this. Our friendship suffered as a result of this and she was going on vacation so she wanted to try to mend things a bit before leaving. I told her everything: how I felt about her...well that was the main thing lol. In short, the next few months was filled with disappointment at myself, her, and the "love" I felt for her. Turns out, she wasn't that amazing, my love was shallow, and I was a b******. I felt like all the changes that I did were undone at that point. Many of the people who I thought were my good friends and good people in general, were not. I was left confused, alone, and sad. Then I started talking to different people. I was getting tired of being sad so I did something about it this time instead of waiting for other people to come to my rescue. I rekindled an old friendship and before I knew it, I had a new best friend. From there I felt like I was becoming a better person. Fast forward to now and I feel like a completely different person. Going to college and seeing how everyone sounds exactly the same. 90% of the people I hear talk about the same two things: beer and sex. When they're not talking about that, I hear them complaining and occasionally saying things about me under their breath. I made no friends in my first year there and took classes that made me die a little inside each day. However, that experience helped me realize a few things. Good friends are not easy to find, I really love art and want to make a career out of it, and I learned to handle solitude better. Near the end of the year, I actually told my best friend that I love her. Even though I pretty much got rejected and we didn't speak to each other for a while, I never regret that day. In fact, conjuring up the manberries to tell her how I felt still gives me confidence. Not talking to her for that long and giving her space sealed the deal. Respecting her decision and not resorting to pestering her about her decision is also good. That whole experience really gave me confidence. Many of my friends were never able to tell a woman those three words, but I did and I have the least experience and self-confidence of them all. People always change. No one stays the same. I look at an old photo of myself and the only similarities are the brain cells. I look much different, think differently, and act much differently. It's never too late to change, in fact, change is inevitable. About a year later, I became obsessed with someone in my school.

In a sense, yes. My first semester and a half of college didn't go very well. My grades were bad and I ended up leaving partway through second semester. During the following fall, I restarted at a 2-year community college. Now my GPA is 3.42.
On top of that, I just finished my 4th semester, so I'm set to graduate and move on to a 4-year university. That fourth semester was also a major reset. I made a friend who I trust completely. Said friend reversed a lot of things in my life that had changed years ago. I used to play a lot of Pokémon games and seriously collect Yu-Gi-Oh! cards. A lot of peer influence, partially from my brother, persuaded me to give up what I loved and "grow up." My friend never got that influence and continued doing what he loved. Given that we both love it, we got along and he reversed me back to the mindset of those games being fun. That's like a semi-reset and I've only been this happy once for a different reason (back in high school).
