How do you guys deal with it?
I am in such a funk right now. I know at least 10 people that have died this year alone, and 8 have been within 2 years (plus or minus) my age (39). A few have been very close to me and others are more like acquaintances/buddies, but it is really pushing me down. Maybe I just need some comforting words, maybe I just need a new direction and goal, maybe some gear would relight the flame?Whatever it is - I have to get out of this funk!
Another issue is money, so my wife is in a funk too. I'm out of work and she is working a bit of OT to just keep us afloat, but we're still sinking. She started smoking again to help her cope, and I am now slowly getting sucked back into my old habits as well. Beer is tasting pretty damn good again (to be honest) and I've been smoking some again too (after almost 6.5 years of not smoking and almost 3 years of not drinking).
Advise? Experience? Help?
