I put my head through my bedroom wall

[DarkHippie]

I was completely fed up from some bullshit at work, and decided to leave my job (I have several). I work 70 hr weeks, at some physically demanding jobs

when i got home, i calculated whether i could afford to

the answer is: yes, but it wont be a good life. after bills and taxes, I will have 300 dollars. a month.

anyway, i called my mom for advice, and instead of advice, she goes on talking about something completely unrelated, she wasnt listening to me at all.

I hang up and start screaming, throwing shit, and headbutting the wall. i put my head through the wall, about 2 inches deep

i never ever lose my cool. this was the first time i had gone off like that in many years. i can't keep working these hours, but i cant afford not to. all i do now is work and sleep. every part of me hurts. my brain is pudding. I dont know what to do

Fix it as soon as you can. Get rid of the reminder of the place you were in when you did it.

I wish I could find a second job. I need extra cash. But I know what you mean when life is all work and no relaxation, see if you can cut back your hours at the second job. Arrange it so you have a day or two a week off from one so you have down time, even if you periodically call in sick for the other job.

I couldn't disagree more.

I'd use that hole in the wall as a reminder of how insane this world can make you if you let it.

All I can tell you, Hippie, is to find a way.

I know that's not much, but if you really want to find a way to live without killing yourself in the process you will.

Maybe you could find a job as one of these

Ditto. No one ever went to their grave saying "I wish I had spent a few more hours in the office (or at work)." You'll find a way to make due with less cash.

[TripleSkeet]

What sucks now is out of that $300, youre probably gonna spend about $40 fixing that wall.

First thing I thought of. Just count yourself as lucky you didn't hit a stud.

I ended up trying to endure my job and should of listened to my inside and quit like you. My mental health problems started getting the best of me and I was forced into retirement. I am making a fraction of what I was before and having difficulty saving any kind of money.

I think you did the right thing and hope that you find another job quick.

i was actually expecting the wall to be more solid. i didnt think i hit it that hard, but i forgot that i have a giant head

Almost lost it at my other job today (special ed teacher) I am having serious anger problems, which, if you know me, is about as unlikely as possbile

[Aggie]

You're a terrible hippie if you're having anger issues. Maybe you should just be "Dark".

"just one application"
meh. a good spackle job is at least 3 coats.

[boosterp]

What's the cause of the anger? I hope you are not drinking if you have all this anger. Are you depressed?

Hippie, its the end of the school year, dont let any student get to you...in a month they're gone and you get to start over next year

[DarkHippie]

I think the anger is because I have been working 4 jobs, and havent had a day off since I had a tooth pulled a couple months ago. I think that I am just mentally and emotionally exhausted

Why must you work all 4, you teach and that should suffice? PM me if you need an ear.

You Hulked out. I did something similar for the first time the other day. Staying angry at yourself or focusing on how stupid it was to hurt your head won't help. Think about how relaxing working less than 70 hours will be, and call those mental health hours.

Tackle one misery at a time. Figure out the money later.

[jessicaduh]

i put my ass through my bedroom wall once. i was doing flips over my bed...no idea why, but it was fun. then i lost my balance. that house had paper thin walls.

I am working as a non certified special ed teacher until i finish my MSed. I make 19,000 gross from it.

In New York that's practically minimum wage

Ah, but it sounds as if you are beyond burnt out. It is difficult just working one job and going to school much less what you are doing with 4. Can you forgo the 4th budget wise to give your self a breather?

youre just lucky I didnt put your head through the wall

Buddy, I feel ya. I was working 4 jobs while in college. I used to sob uncontrollably--not like me at all. You've gotta find a way to have some time off, or you're health is gonna suffer (both physical and mental). Keep us posted, Wigglebuns.

i am just a little worried because i have bi-polar syndrome (which has been under control for many years) but in the past, too much stress has triggered manic episodes

Well, the fact that you're aware of it is a good sign. Sometimes, we don't know we're in "that special place" until we're in too deep. (And I don't mean THAT special place, creeps.)

Which form of bipolar (my are of specialty) plus I know first hand what mental illness does to you?
