I am just stumped right now... all else being equal as in us being civil... how do you guys cope with unwanted stress or situations that arise that seem impossible or like all odds are against you? Dont be dicks, this is serious!


I filled out my application to a university a bit too late IMO and now i am facing the possible reality that i wont be a student this spring!!!!:|

My gf got accepted to a major nursing program and we aint got no money for a car or travel, the damn university is 65min away and it is going to be an everyday thing for the next 2years...

I just dont know what to do sometimes and feel overwhelmed with it all...

any advice
 
Stress is a terrible and hard thing to deal with.... mainly why I smoke.
Sometimes you just have to have the people you love around you and make the most out of any situation.
I believe everything happens for a reason, the good & the bad.
I live in UK so MJ illegal here. When I started my business the stress got to much for me and confided in a friend who in turn (i didn't realise) was just getting over the same thing but he had it MUCH worse. I went and got help from my doctor and took a course of anti depressants.
I would stick to the herb if you can but never think its a pussy thing to do to ask for help and speak to your loved ones about it, specially your gf.

Hope things work out man. Ever need a chat PM me. Atleast on this 10 times a day.
 
If it alreaday happneded and you have no control over it now...then stress out for a few more mins....smoke a bowl and move on the next thing. No sense in worrying about shit you cant change right now. Sucks when things are so close but just outa reach , hopefully something good comes around for you man. Life is full of all kinds of shit lol
 
I just feel so overwhelmed cause i jut got one more year to finish with my degree and if i dont get in this semester, i dont know what i will do...

I was relying on getting able to register for the spring cause i qualify for the stafford loan and being that i am a late junior, i qualify for a good chunk of change that i was going to use to get my gf a used car... man this shit sucks ass...

i was just depending so much on getting accepted...
 
Have you spoken face-to-face with the person in charge at the registrar's office? Often a direct personal appeal will work wonders ... especially if your only whoopsie is being a day or two late. It sounds like you've been a student in good standing. Appearing in person sends the powerful message that you care about staying in good standing. jmo. cn
 
I look at life as a game. All you can do is try to make the right moves to get you moving along as fast and as productively as you can. If you're girlfriend got accepted to a nursing program she needs to go. Does she qualify for any student loans to help pay for her school or a car?

I don't know enough about your entire situation to help you get through this kind of thing unfortunately. Can you grow some/more pot to get her a $2500.00 car? Commuting 130 miles every day probably isn't going to be terribly reasonable for 2 years, are you completely opposed to moving? Is it possiblet o move somewhere that is half way so she can drive your car if you don't make it into school this semester? Sounds like you'll have some time to spend at home, maybe she can use your car?

How about you go out and buy yourself a 10-15 year old EX-500 motorcycle and she drives your car? College is a tough time, gotta do what you gotta do, but believe me, it's worth it. If you don't finish, life just keeps going on like this..always tryin' to hustle.
 
No, i was calling all morning and being that i am a junior so i need to speak to faculty for my advising which i did not know about till today!!! There were no professors in so all i can do now is email the Dr. in charge of advising me to see if he will opt for an appointment some time this week... really sucks though, a break from school is not what i need, i need my degree cause i already got a job lined up for me at the local school district once i graduate... noooooooo

I know, that is why i am stressing so much man, my gf needs to attend no matter what... i just feel bad cause i cant provide for her and it sucks man... i live in texas so growing for re sale is OUT OF THE PIC!!!! i own a truck v8 at that and it guzzles gas like a frat kid guzzles booze!!!!!

I have thought about moving, but the whole moving thing is what i dont like... plus, its a bigger city and i am used to the small life... Motorcycles our out too, i just dont like them...

i have my resume done already and i hope to apply at all gyms close to the university as i specialize in strength and conditioning and my resume of athlete success is very eye catching for them.. so hopefully i can get a gig somewhere...

i fucked up right out of high school at a major university. gpa went shit. now im clawing my way back from a major injury and trying to get my gpa back so i can transfer back into that uni and get my degree.

ways i found to deal with stress
working out
smoking
watching sitcoms ( ie. according to jim, king of queens) something mindless
being around loved ones

hope this helps :)
 
I think you'll be alright man. This is just the tough part of life. If you do what you gotta do and cope with the stress that you need to it will get easier. Yeah, if growing is illegal, selling is outta the question.

I'm sure it'll all work out in the long run, but don't let stress about not "providing" for you girlfriend get you down. She's gotta figure out how to make it work too. I'm sure can figure out a way to get herself some wheels or figure something out. Sounds like you need to be doin' your right now and figuring out how YOU are going to get your business taken care of.
 
i know, i just got back from working out and i feel a lot better... im just hoping that the professor shoots me an email agreeing to meet with me...

if not, then we will just have to find a way around this obstacle...

thanks guys, the words of advice will be greatly appreciated...

I suggest being proactive. E-mail is maybe too impersonal. Call him. Call his office and find out his "available" office hours. That's what I would do ... show the hustle. cn
 
"you cannot change what's been and gone""Don't look back in Anger" ..........good luck man ...
 
trust neer, i am great student and i also think that emails are lame, but i cant afford the travel right now... thats the bad part... id be over there in an instant if i had the mula to do so...

and the professor i spoke to told me that the Dr. G is already out for the semester... the professor i spoke to said he would contact him and let him know that a student was going to contact him via email about the advising and my current situation...

i got my fingers crossed...

Man, that really sucks, Oly! I agree with 'neer, you've got to get a face-to-face with anyone and everyone who may be able to make an exception. Hustle and personality go a LONG way, you'll stand out. I know you're broke right now, but I bet you could find a buddy or family member that will spend half a day on your ass, just get as many appointments as you can back-to-back if you have to, and do it via phone. I always feel better when I turn over every stone when trying to fix a fuck up. whether it works out or not. Good luck...
 
Well my friend ....heres what I do to cope. First of all....I keep in mind that no matter how bad it gets, there are people in the world with worse problems. Secondly, think about your situation. How bad is it really? 9 times out of 10 ...whatever the problem is...you wont even remember it next year....so how bad can it be? I used to stress about everything, from big things to little thing. Big thing.....living on the streets in Seattle,....Little thing.....some girlfriend cheated on me. I don't stress about anything anymore. I just wait and see what the next day brings. Lifes a garden.....dig it......lol

How to repeat 'Om Namah Shivay'
Sit in a comfortable and peaceful place and position. Start repeating the mantra in your mind or loudly with the same speed as you talk:
Om Namah Shivay (Aum Num-ha Shi-why)

chant........deep breathing exercises......walking in the woods. physical exertion is a good one.
