Dear ILF. Yours Truly, Frustrated.

[elbandito]

You ever just feel like you need to be doing something that's NOT what's considered properly productive? Even when things are all going right, you still feel frustrated and squeezed in? I'm sick of my gf, sick of my house, sick of this town and it's cliques, sick of the gov't and it's scams... Sick of paying for the internet so that I can talk to ppl I might not ever meet but that I feel are more like me than most of the ppl that I actually hang out with, sick of being in bands that go nowhere.

Fuck it. I think I'm gonna sell everything except for my Singing Tree, buy a steel resonator guitar and take myself and my pignose on a year-long busking trip around wherever. I'd rather die on the road with a guitar in my hand than sitting and rotting in this place, doing what I've been doing.

/end rant.

If you're serious about that it looks like a few of us are in the same boat, ILF meet up and road trip?
We can crash at different ILFers houses lol

everyone wants to escape sometimes.

if someone doesn't, they're usually boring. least how i see it.

lifes too big to make running away from everything actually useful. i say just escape in the cracks.

Just wait one year and I'll have my own place and you can come to Holland

Why don't I live in America....

Everyone is sick of it all once in a while. Some people repress it, some people drink it away, some people can just live with it and go on. Everyone has his own way of dealing with it.

Unfortunately this also means there really is nothing I (we) can do to help except support you in whatever decision you decide to make regarding this.

Good luck!

See, that's why I read comic books. It's a great way to be totally unproductive and get a little fantasy time in.

[DarkAxel]

yeah, everybody sometimes feels this way... but it's hard to give advice to someone feeling like that - everyone experiences those moods in a different way and everone needs something different

even though i might look like a loser after this - i need escapes big time, because without them i'm kinda anxious - and not in the "look at me i cut myself and i'm not happy" but in the way of having weird seizures... my ex GF could tell you a few stories... anyway to avoid those i started to collect, paint and play Warhammer 40k miniatures and it actually helped!

also reading comicbooks, playing AD&D, even the stupid World of Warcraft helped... or watching a lot of movies... i just need to escape sometimes...

last few months are really hectic for me... i've got a GF (happy ), two brigade-works, a gigging band and a school is killing me, because i'm graduating this year... i've been really busy lately so i don't have time for almost any escapes at all... luckily i don't have a time for being anxious as well i don't really have time to sit, look at a blank wall and think about my past... and those thoughts are almost exclusively dark, to be honest...

sorry, i'm a bit babbling tonight... the point is... escape in any way you need to - noone can really judge you - it's your life, your needs - if you don't hurt anyone, you can do whatever you need to do to be happy

that movie was fucking great. have you seen waking life, too? definitely a movie best enjoyed alongside a bowl.

i think everyone goes through these funks once in a while. stable life sometimes feels unfulfilling... if it feels wrong, change something.

"My home is a prison", as Slim Harpo once sang. This, I feel to the fullest.
