Things might be going ok at the moment. But if something changes you’re screwed.

Can I ask what’s happened @everhopeful?
Nothing happened. But I worry a lot about the future.

@everhopeful we have no idea what will happen in the future … I mean I used to have sleepless nights thinking how dad would cope without my grandmother because I’d seen he was so fond of her and my grandfather. But things don’t happen as we expect. And me? I am pulling through it too. What I’m trying to say is Hard times bring out strength in you that you never imagined you had.

I like that old saying,
Screw me once,
Twice if I like it.

I run my own business, you get screwed a lot in the business world, or they try hard to do so, still here 20 years later

Yeh, I often think about if I relapse again, then I’ll feel hopelessly screwed.
One thing to note though is you can’t be certain of whatever the future brings.

Yes i think I am vulnerable to homelessness in the future and I haven’t adapted very brilliantly to the changing role of women. I would have stood a better chance in a traditional society that recognised our gender roles as biological and not merely sociological…

I feel screwed a lot of times too. But I don’t want to think about the future.
During depression is the worst. I cry so much and worry I will die alone here with no one by my side. 
But with reasonable thinking, everyday is changing… The steps you take today will change your future. So what do you worry about?

I’m constantly worrying and obsessing over EVERYTHING!
This includes the unknown and the future.
I understand what you go through @everhopeful.

Yes…all the time…my therapist said I don’t know how to be happy because even when I’m doing well I have the acute knowledge that everything could go wrong again in an instant.

Yeah I think about if my dad passes away before I graduate college and my sister has another episode and loses her job then we’re screwed i.e. Homeless.

I think about losing financial support from the government before I get a degree and get a job. Then I think I would just shoot myself in the face.
