Art & Inspiration im still alive.......barely

Canada Jeff is absolutely right, I suffered for years wandering why I was so dumped out and even had some suicidal thoughts. It is a imbalance in the brain and with out advice of a good doctor and medication you can't really get past it. Seemingly undue stress was also a big factor. It's like the weight of the world is off your sholders. Glad you're back!

 

Hello
And Welcome back.
I'm not even totaly sure I remember any thing you wrote, but I've seen your screenname on here.

But any man that finds it in him, to tell how they feel about themself and the matters of the mind, will I anyday call a Friend!
You are among other who feel the same about cars and especialy abot hot rod. We are alot close too each other, then any other Web page I been on!!!

We can all agree that you've been in a bad place, but this is a way to you salvation! Admiting and trying is the way out.

I partialy now how you feel, I had a boss that drove me out over the edge, too a point where I could'nt look at my self in the Mirror with out seeing a big sign of failure on my forehead. I felt bad about anything, and could get my self out of this negativ dive, I put my self in too.
I treated my wife badly and my daughter of two the same way.
It's hard to visit the HAMB when ypu fill like this, everybody here is so damn good and expert craftmen.

The still pains me Sometimes, but I've desited too learn as much as a can.
There are so many nice people on here, there does good in any way they can.
If you look for it, you will see it.

Best of luck with you recovery!
We are here to help you, if you wants us too.
Or we can stay out, and wait for you to do a full recovery!! You call, abd we Respect your dessision.

 

Welcome back! I recoginized your avatar right away, so you must have posted some good stuff in the past that I enjoied reading, look forward to reading more. You don't have to be turning wrenches to enjoy this hobby, collecting stuff or just reliving the history of things are hobbies in themselves. Bob

 

Very glad you are back in the saddle. Talk is cheap and therapeutic , I understand your earlier frustrations , but many buddies on the HAMB will have been there before and can offer support to a brother HAMBER. Welcome back and let us know what you are up to.

 

I was the same way after 2 total ankle{FAILED} replacements on my left ankle and out all of that money. I had to quit work,I didn't want to go out or talk to anyone and had my 56 buick wagon just sitting here with a bad motor , trans and no brakes. I started reading the hamb and started feeling better about my self and even though its still hard for me to get around ,a lot of people have helped me get my 56 buick wagon about read to hit the road again .Its a long road. I know .The only thing now is I am talking to the wagon like in the movie Christine and some times feel like shes taking over me .lol. Hang in there and TALK don't keep it pened up. And thanks to all the people on here who have helped me on here with the wagon. Bruce. The 56 went from this

 

To this.Bruce.

 

Glad you're back. I am having some health issues too although not at the level you are. Yesterday I was having a little PitiParti thinking maybe I should sell the rail and quit. Today I think maybe I just need to go faster. It is quite a shock when we can't do what we once found easy and fun. Especially when one can remember when I said once "I am 6 feet tall and weigh 243lbs and fear no man." Now I am just humped over easily winded and fat! Can only put in a couple of hours and I am pooped. So I am wishing you better days from the bottom of my heart!
