Link to original post: [drupal=2178]Just another bad depression blog.[/drupal]



My life sucks.

First of all, I'd like to establish that Brawl is the center of my life. Every time I'm allowed, I'm either here running a clan, posting, or on my Wii brawling. When I'm not, I rarely think about much else.

This causes a number of problems, especially with family and friends. My relationship with my mother consists of her forcing me to get off of the Wii or computer. My relationsips with my brothers consist of competing for the technology all day.

My friends either dislike playing brawl or suck and I dislike playing them. With Brawl being the center of my life, it's a strain trying to keep friends when they can't enjoy the thing I enjoy most.

I think about this, and realize that Brawl and SWF is totally pointless. All Brawl is is pretend people fighting pretend people, and all SWF is is me talking to a bunch of people I've never met before and probably never will about this futile game. That's nothing to isolate myself from the world about. The futility is astounding if I think about it too much. But yet, I love the game and this place too much to quit.

:depression:


I'm sorry if this is a horrible blog. Feel free to deleete/lock/whatever.

Nah, it's fine.

Are you in Summer vacation right now? If you are then you're probably in the same place I am... you just need to find something else to do I guess... and probably having to do schoolwork, although while not enjoyable (to me) is a change of pace, which is nice every now and then.

i used to be like that but i learned how to get out of playing games all day and staying on the comp. I realized that there was more to life than games and mountain dew. Having no friends is kinda bad but sometimes having friends are cool. They're just people to turn to in a bad situation. Trust me, i used to play my gamecube all day. But my mom cut my time to only 2 hours and played only on the weekends. Don't give up.

Yeah, I'm still in summer vacation, but school's fast approaching. Although I think that's why I'm starting to think about this kind of stuff though.

Just don't play Brawl as much. Read a book, if it interests you, or go outside and do something different.
There's so many options. :) Don't let this realization get you depressed.

Wow, this post is more emotional than I thought it would turn out to be. :laugh:

Find me a tournament in Wisconsin. :(
Although I would love to go to one. Then I might make some really good friends.

@Mewter: I just end up being bored with whatever I try to do. :/ I might make more of an effort though...

Eh, sometimes I get bored like you are now (not too awfully), but when I do something different, even if it is boring, I'm somehow happy that I can just do something different, you know? It gives me satisfaction, at least. :laugh:
Help out around the house or something. That could help.

Boy, that would give my mom a heart attack.

@stabbed: O_O There's a tournament in Wisconsin?! I hope my parents let me go. That Wisconsin thread was entirely unhelpful however.

You should probably introduce yourself to them in the wisconsin thread and see if any of them live by you.

The smash community is warm and inviting. Especially IRL

Thanks a lot stabbed. This sure cheered me up. (Although it will deepen this brawl obsession...)

Well if it's something you have a passion for then that shouldn't matter.

Besides getting out of the house and meeting other people who have the same interests as you seems like the perfect solution to the whole first post heh.
