Males get depressed too, adult males get depressed more so than most realize.
Males are seen as comforters, but as you age as a male, especially if single, no family, and alone, than who's there to comfort you?
If a male, particularly a male of color, society, in general, meaning the people in it, see you as a dangerous monster.
Just walk into a store and see how employees react to you, see how the cashier changes their demeanor and deal with you vs others.
The older you get as a male, the lease you begin to matter to others, to society....no one cares how you feel, as a male, you're just expected to 'suck it up'.

And if a male of color, most cops don't know how to deal with you as a 'victim' or as someone in need of emotional help.
If a male of color, cops conditioned to always and firstly, to see you as a 'threat', to themself and others.
Even if you call 911, the cops, be they white, black or Hispanic or other, often show up treating you as the suspect even though you're the one who made the call.

Males who have intact families, are the lucky ones.
Males who have offspring, are the lucky ones, cause later in life, even if divorced, at least your own offspring will be fond of you, and possibly even take care of you.
No one will love a male like their own mother, but when that relationship gone or dissolved, unless some rich prosperous type, good luck finding anyone who sees value in you, outside of family, again, if lucky enough to have that.

I never thought my life would turn out like it has. I mean from the surface, sure, all seems fine, I have a job, a place to stay, I never get in trouble with the law. From the surface, it seems like a clean normal life, but when dig deeper, it's not. It's a life of under achievements, unfulfilled dreams, no family, no friends, and quickly losing hunger for anything anymore. Yet I'm still here, and not really sure why. Always waiting on that one 'OK, this is why I was born', moment, but it never seems to come with me, instead I've been asking self lately 'if this is all there is to my life, why was I born?'. I don't know, I know moods can take us to dark places if we're not careful, that I do know.  |

OK, I've gotta lift myself out of this slumbering mood, what shall I do?
Often times depressed moods can be linked to drinking, or the cycles inbetween, when body is void of nutrients that help our mood.
I think my mini depressed state, pessimism, is probably based on me drinking as of late....just beer, but still, if drink enough beer, it can be as bad as liquor.
Anyways, time to get on with the 'to do list', sometimes just staying busy can help improve the mood.

Not focused Not focused, almost like afraid to focus. I'm the type just doesn't act until actually getting shoved off the cliff. There's so much stuff I could be doing to make my tomorrow better, but instead, I sit on my but, as if some magical dragon or ect, will come save me at the last minute. Women aren't the only ones who need saving, you know, or who dream about being saved and swept up by another. It takes a lot of energy to be a strong man all the time. Oh well, today is here, and I'm just not ready for it yet.

 I started off the day feeling pretty lousy, then got up, wrote, ate, pondered, went to post office, and they still haven't transferred my mail from old burned-out place, then went to the park and walked a few laps around the ballpark, and not back 'home', typing. In this world, when like me, you can't wait on others to like you in order to get stuff done, cause it's never going to happen. Outside of my mother, I really don't exist to no one on this whole planet, and self aware and realize that...it's just lately I've been keeping myself busy enough to not really care. I don't need people to like me anymore, would be nice if they did, but if they don't, oh well. -------------------- Anyways, I gotta stop wasting time, I'm accountable to others now that enrolled in this film course...to let myself down would be to let others down as well and then lose credibility. |
