@SSD: I'm sorry that you're going through a depressing swing today SSD, but hopefully it will pass. You've got friends here, so if you need help, we're here for ya. It's a smile.

@Stryker: I completely agree with that kind of mentality when things are down. It could be a lot worse than it really is, but it isn't. I'm living at a great college with good grades with family and friends who love me for who I am. It's a smile.

So what if I have an off-day once in a while

Could be worse.

It's been nearly two years and I still can't get over my ex-boyfriend; I see and hear things that remind me of him and I can't move on. Or, I think that I can't move on.
I keep wondering, is it that I simply have no interest in meeting other people (and could be missing things) because I have entered a state of feeling comfortably-numb along with my memories? I'm not even sure. Meh, a shitty stupid "problem", but just felt like blurting it out.

At least I have a light-box (used it in California for my depression; I forgot all about it when I moved back East) which can alleviate the feelings somewhat.

There is a growing voice arguing that many people may in fact benefit more from a light-box than taking drugs - and it is much cheaper to use a light-box: http://well.blogs.nytimes.com/2011/01/06/light-therapy-for-depression/

Monk Ed wrote:

What's always uplifted me personally are stories where people's bad situations have gotten better.

There is some truth in it definitely. I remember reading some study arguing charity would be more effective in their fund-raising by making the donors feel better, and stories of people getting better are more effective to achieve that than stories of misery and wretchedness to appeal to their compassion.

I've had this problem before, and this solution seems to work for me:
Go back to your ex, and ask him if you can still be friends.

I'm still friends with every boyfriend and girlfriend I've ever had, and it (usually) prevents that sense of longing.

@SSD: I'm with ya, babe. I live in Minnesota, and SAD grinds me into the dirt every winter. It sucks, but hang in there -- spring is coming, slowly but surely. And like you said, in the meantime you have your lightbox.

OT: I ordered a copy of NGE: Decade on principle, since I think you should support a company if they give you something you like (I have every Eva release ever in digital format, and FLAC at that, so I don't need it. But I wanted it, because it seemed the right thing to do). But then it arrived and it was, surprise surprise, a Miya instead of a genuine copy. Fucking Amazon. I hate getting kicked in the teeth and made to feel like a chump when I try to do the right thing. There's nothing in this world that's more discouraging.

Sorry to hear about your depression hitting again, SSD. Back when I used to get it heavy, it definitely did make every little thing just that much harder to do (or even want to do).

Just remember that most of us here will lend an ear if need be. We're your friends too, after all. GLOMP!

Why, Reichu's Xhe page is EGF's unofficial Rite of Passage. If you can handle her naked Evas, you can handle the rest of our quirks on the forums.

(I hope she's doing well, I haven't heard from her lately.)

I suppose it was regular Amazon and not Amazon.Jp? I don't believe Amazon.Jp has bootlegs, but I'm 90% CDJapan doesn't have any. I've never had an issue with bootlegs from their site, although the shipping+handling can sometimes be a killer.

Yeah, same here.

And Ano13B, I'm shocked you haven't stumbled across that page before now! It's clear you weren't properly hazed upon your arrival. :green:

Yeah, it was regular Amazon. Sad part is I think most of the sellers there don't even know how to tell a bootleg from the genuine article. I'll have to start ordering strictly from Japan, it seems, which will make collecting all the music legitimately painful. Hopefully the dollar will get a bit stronger sometime soon so I can actually make that happen.

Those were actually my first real taste of the terrifying fandom this is.
I had just finished the show and was checking out the TV Tropes page. There was a link from TV Tropes somewhere to the "geek vocab" sort of page on Evageeks. I clicked on it and looked around on the page. Somewhere naked Evas were mentioned.
I clicked through several more links and came across those horrifically hilarious...things.
I was sold. The Eva fandom seemed like the sort of effed-up place I'd like.
I like it very much.

So, the girl I've become friends with... I think she's a lesbian(maybe bisexual) because I've seen her make comments on facebook about how she's tired of not finding the right woman. Now, why does this FML? Because she's the only person I've ever truly met to peak my interest in a romantic type of way. Things like this just make me feel worthless, and like I'm never mean't to love in a romantic way.
