Life

I'd message you but the fmttm computer says no. You already have my number. I cycled up and down Marton road today. I never knew how up it was going towards Stewart park... That was depressing 😔 ;😉

Keep talking, NEVER let it beat you.

The joy is everywhere. I spent 20 minutes watching a robin and squirrels yesterday. Things I forgot about, remember things that bring happiness to you
 
Like Boro beating Leicester?

I broke down in tears on the long drive home you know.

I know it's a cliche, and often doesn't feel true, but you're never alone. Ever.

This board really is a one off and in a bizarre way what makes it bad is what makes it good. The fighting, the spats, the disagreements, the b1tching on. Its literally like family and the one thing this board does better than all else is all pull together for each other.

If ever you want to private message and just vent, release let go of things I'm here. I don't always know the right things to say, but I can listen. And I speak for many others too.

Take care of yourself and please don't lose sight of your FMTTM family, all of whom are here with you.

There are a few of us meeting for coffee on Friday morning and we all feel you would get something out of these little meetings. I believe you live in the Peterborough area and would struggle to get up for a coffee but why don't you FaceTime one of us and just say hello to the group.

Keep your chin up mate, we are all here for you.

Boro beating Leicester is a perfect example of the anomalies of life.
Less than 3% would have predicted us gaining a gritty , determined, defensive 1 nil win .
It came about from 90+ minutes from Fry and Howson showing uncompromisable determination to a task many thought above them.
And then .. 30 seconds of magic , that lasts for hours ..
much longer than the graft of 35 year old howson man marking the ?best player in the league?

People are always there for you , on here , and in real life , to share both aspects

Exactly like Boro beating Leicester.. although I did predict we would win 1-0 with a sneaky banger! Those long drives can be brutal.. mixtapes, Spotify playlists or those zip folders of top cds are absolutely essential.

Drinks of water and chewy recommended.. but caffeinated drinks and sour sweets go down well too.

Long drives are an absolute mission!
 
I’m not really looking for sympathy. I posted this last night then quickly fell asleep.

Too much crap going on in my life, I won’t bore anyone with the details except to say for the past few weeks I feel completely and utterly detached from anyone and anything, the news is just utterly depressing and divisive.

social media and this msg board is a reflection of that, and reading a lot of stuff on here just brings my mood down as there is so much vitriol.

my work life is utterly miserable, and what little enjoyment I get from life (like a Sam greenwood free kick in the 83rd min) is over too fleetingly.

If any of my ramblings make sense.

Up the fecking Boro

They certainly are a mission as I can attest to, 600 mile return drive from Hampshire to every home match for 11 seasons.
Driving from E Yorks now, which is just under a 200 mile round trip is a doddle!
 
I read something about depression the other day which really made me think.
It said something along the lines of those with depression don’t really feel ‘sad’

They feel a numb, hazy, dazed and and just can’t get to a place where they can get out of that dark place - is that how it is?

Can’t imagine what that’s like but I do wish you well

Yep got it in one.
 
I have been doing well since my new meds kicked in from March/April. I had a bit of a blip a couple of weeks ago and I realised that the clocks going back and the dark nights was what caused it. Gets me every year. Fingers crossed for a good bit of snow this year. Everybody likes a bit of snow. How about a white christmas?

Hopefully the 'ramblings' on here help? I find they do, as long as I keep off the politics ;)

You are not alone in that. I've come off here, only lurking now and again for these very reasons. Twitter is a cesspit full of f*cktards, Threads starting to go that way, FB is just glossy bollox.

That's spot on that, sums it up "nicely". Only it's not nice......

People need to just stop and think, stop the pile ons, stop the fooking gobshyte know it all answers and start to respect people. Too many tw*ttish pub bores on here, everyones opinion is wrong they know everything. And they are more than happy to tell you that....... But for all the knobheads, there's are many genuine good posters, good people .......just can't be ars*d with the former.

Be nice everyone.

Out. 👍
 
My elder sister got it.
I can't do much.Sometimes I listen to her talk about death.
It felt exhausting as well.
It's like this, both a bad economy and a worse environment.
I just sit and take it easy. I have to take care of my elderly mother as well.
Living in Thailand is easy. But if you don't have any money at all, it's also difficult.
Only today I'm a very frugal spender, so that's tolerable.
I confess that when we lost to QPR I also lost my mind.
I don't know. I think I got through the difficulties because I wasn't very demanding.
 
Be nice everyone.
Something I need to remember. I am a kind/nice person but then on places like here, I sometimes say some of the most stupid things. I have no idea why. I don't use social media as it is full of cruel/hurtful people. Something I never need in my life.

Social media can be a cesspit as people can say any old schitt from behind a keyboard, I imagine it gives them a feeling of power/excitement or something to that effect. It is very hard to ignore it sometimes and not get drawn in. You just have to think to yourself 'I am better than that' and try to rise above it.
This board is a prime example of good and bad. Mostly good though with posts like those above.
