I can't work. I get v depressed cos i can't make money. I wanted to make lots. Own a house instead of renting. I saw one recently 450 grand.i would like that and to be v wealthy. I could if i could work. I know people who are building extensions. I cannot afford to. I do not want to but want to be able to afford it.
It makes me v depressed. I want to be clear I am not asking anyone for money or anything. I just have no one to tell. My folks are dead. I really miss them too. I have not slept last two nights so am v tired. One of my friends has little money it amaze me he is not depressed about it. How do people accept not being wealthy? |

What exactly worries you about not being wealthy?
Have you got food enough to live and the roof above your head? Someone would be very glad to have that bit. Or you worry abot having that when you are old man? Or you are of some middle age so you compare yourself with the other people of your age? The good starting point then is to stop comparing yourself with the others. We are all different anyway so it pointless. |

Try not to think about what you don’t have and focus on the things you do have. I used to compare myself to others who have accomplished so much at my age but it isn’t good for my mental state. I admit, I still have moments I compare myself to others but I try to just focus on my self and try to better myself. I’m at a point in my life where I have been stable for several months and it’s amazing because I’m doing this during a pandemic and being unemployed. I’m not trying to take advantage of this time by trying to be productive. I’m also taking a few classes to work my way to a career and not just a job. Hang in there, things will get better. I know it seems impossible because I used to feel the same way.

What worries me is not owning my own home instead of renting. If people want to rent fine or if they are happy without much money fine. That's not me I wanted to make lots and could if i were not ill

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
