A sad place for sad people to be sad.

Have fun!

Bi-polar people are also allowed to post here but only sometimes.(joke)

Trolls will be banned!

36, frustrated, angry, bored, uninspired and stuck in a safe, boring, but tolerable dead end job. A job which I'll be stuck doing for the next 30 years till retirement cause this is as far as I can go in my life. Failed and burned out from multiple business ventures, and have completely given up hope in building a successful business empire or doing anything of note period. I've resigned myself to my fate. My question is how to accept & cope with the misery that is my mediocre and boring life? Drugs? Alcohol? Criminal activity?

I've had hobbies, bored of them now. Fall in love? That's antiquated, no one marries for love, only convenience and finding someone is impossible if your not socially well connected or rich. A safe and stable job gets boring very quickly.

I think you should talk to a therapist, and I don't mean that as an insult (and for the record, I didn't downvote you).
