cheer me up please

i think the only real answer to your slump would be a near death experience.

Try to enjoy and realize small things around your life.
I always think back some years ago when I was 17.

At that point I just switched the school, getting out of miserable home-stay.
I had no friend, no family in Canada, no one to talk to. My daily routine was basically going to the school, going back home, study, and sleep.

It was a hot day, and I was slowly walking on my way home listening to music with crappy mp3 player, drinking cheap tim horton's iced cappuccino slush.

and I suddenly felt my life is pretty damn good, because I was healthy, I could eat whatever I want, and I could listen to the music enjoying nice weather.

Whenever I'm feeling blue, I try to think when I was really sick (getting sick when living alone in the country is the worst). and to cheer myself up, I grab my camera and walk around streets taking pictures. And a cup of iced cappuccino on my other hand.

Hope it helps a bit.

How exactly does that "cheer him up"..?


Well.. Simple diagnosis; you obviously loved your 318 slick top very much and having it gone has messed up with your heart, spirit, mind. Perhaps you no longer feel the spiritual connection eith people on the boards because of the loss of your e30, your mind no longer feels the comfort of having something to be occupied with, and your heart can no longer rest in the joy of having something of value to cherish.

This probably why your partying, buying new cars, and etc. because your trying to regain what was lost, but are feeling empty inside because your doing the wrong things to go about rebuilding your persona structure.

Not meaning to sound religious in any way (but in essence I am because I am very religious myself lol). You need something that will "complete" your life to get out of this slump. Perhaps you "felt complete" becaus you had an e30 that had a lot of value, was the basis for many of your relationships, and occupied your time; it satisfied your three basics of human function.

But, I just can't give you all this information wi warning you about the dangers too. The scary thing about putting hope (mentally, emotionally, and spiritually) in something so fragile as a human or a car; one second and it could be gone and you'll end up feeling the way you are. Search for truth. Just don't go to drugs please, that's the coward's way out ;)

When life falls through like it might have for you, we get stuck at looking inside of us for the answers, and that's what leads to depression because if we really look deep down inside: we're horrible people bent to kill, steal, and destroy. Your only solution is to start looking outside e box: start volunteering, do stuff for others, give random people compliments, "deliberate" random acts of kindness etc.

It will only help boost your self-awareness, find other/better things to cherish, occupy your mind with, and create a spiritual like between you and the world around you.


I know how it feels because I was just there. I was always feeling inadequate and insignificant. Always looking at the popular crowd and thinking "why am I not like them?" Then i started really re-evaluating my life, thinking to myself who really matters to me and who the people sre that choose to hold me at a greater value. Thats when I got over it, and attempted at making stronger relationships with people who truly valued me as a person. Eventually that gave me the self esteem I needed to try things I never would have before; started going to restaurants more with those people, eventually I started writing small compliments to cute waiters (and even some not so cute ones, cause they're human too;)), and that just eventually built on my confidence as I looked outside of myself and into serving others (learning how to invest in the people that cared about me most, looking at life from other people's perspective and asking "would my smile/conversation/compliment brighten their day?". Etc.)
Eventually I got passed the superficial stage and developed into a person with a little more backbone and self-identity. Now, I can honestly say I'm pretty focused on what I need and want to do with my life, and am liked by the majority of the people I know or am acquainted with. The haters can keep hatin lol

it would make him realize he has the most important thing of all, his life.


don't get me wrong i love e30's, especially rare ones..
but at the end of the day what is that car? just a piece of metal.

are you going to let a piece of metal bum you out?

[JinormusJ]

Essentially yeah.. But that could also lead him to turn bitter, question why these things are happening to him, and hate what's going on all the more.

Bitterness is one thing you need to avoid, and to do that.. Well.. You just need to go outside, soak in the sun, and enjoy the air your breathing. Tomorrow is always a new day, and with a new day comes new chances and new ways to become a better person.

Maybe my misfortune will cheer you up a tad.

I just replaced my cracked dash with a crack-free replacement 2 weeks ago, I went to Montana for a week to visit my girlfriend & just got back last night. Today, I sat in my car because I missed it and I am in love with it. After a simple glimpse around, I noticed a huge crack in the dash running right through the fucking middle.

I'm e30 sad too, depressed even, but obviously this isn't as extreme as your case..

Cheer up, you'll get another one. Just like I'll eventually get another dash..

Life can be such a cock sucker sometimes. We've all been there buddy.

[slammin.e28]

I generally like to punch someone in the ovaries to cheer myself, and sometimes the other person, up.

Do you need a punch in the ovaries?

[cabriodster87]

Eat healthy, work out a lot, spend time in nature, connect with your inner self.

Go on a camping trip man, the woods, friends and food heals all.

[VANOS714]

Lol I did! And usually that puts me in a good mood, but didn't work!


lots of good
Advice/insight. thanks guys.


it's not so much this specific car, but more that I've
Put so much time into e30's, I mean look at my sig!
when this one took a hit I mentally gave up with the attitude, "if I can't have the one I want, I choose to have none". so
I cut out a huge part of my life(avg. 10-15hrs weekly working on mine or friends e30's).
it's like I wasted all this time and money and nothing to show. huge disconnect!

ima hit gym hard tonight, at the least it will keep my mind off things, I remember when I broke up with some skank a while back. super depressed and couldn't get over it. Started working out twice a day and reading health books non stop, got yolked up in a few weeks and was over her quick, I think I need a crash workout rehab routine to pick my spirits up!


Thanks again fuckers :)

First World problems

Go take 17 hour ride on greyhound some where. Take note of the other 90% and you will see life not that bad.

Got good health? Clean water to drink? A roof over your head? Food in the fridge? Friends you trust? Congratulations -- you're better off than 99.9 percent of anyone who's ever lived. Sure, it's easy to get bummed out for whatever reason and I know it sounds trite, but try to look on the bright side. For one thing, you're not this poor kid ...
