Right now I'm finding my feet on some things. It's good to have even vague little reminders that there are people who care out there when I'm ready for the company. Thanks for that reminder!

When does the tough time end? I feel like it's been a tough eternity.

Thanks heaps for this post OP

It seems I'm in a loop where I am alright then the crushing anxiety comes back and then I get better then it's back again.

What a life :(

A reminder that most of the problems in your life you are capable of fixing. And if your feeling lonely and depressed it's because you yourself are leaving yourself alone to rot. You have the power to change every aspect of your life. Nobody can help you until you are ready to help yourself first.

This is the most meaningless drivel I’ve ever heard. What the fuck does this guy know?

Same here stress from all angles here. Stress from work, stress from wife & kids after hours, father passed away, my mother having insurance claim dramas, taking time off work to look after sick kids then kids passing stomach flu to me, then need to catch up with work.

What if you're in a catch 22 where you're both killing it and having a rough time, and removing one removes the other too?

“Others feel like me” has never once worked. When you feel like I do, you ultimately end it with “fuck everybody”

I really needed this today. Going through a lot been really sick and just feel alone, just trying to be the best father I can be and life has a way of kicking you when you’re down but I’m going to make it, no matter what.

Like wheat in a mill, you will be ground down into powder until you get through. Don't complain, it's happening to everyone else.

You might not get through it unless you do something though. This kind of advice seems to suggest you should sit back and wait for something to magically happen.

If you’re having a tough time right now, just be thankful you’re not Kanye west.

I hate these half assed, “motivational” people. These stupid quotes piss me off. Some people are alone. Some people can’t, and won’t get thru it. Those are the hard facts of the world we live in. Saying this shit isnt going to solve their problems, it’s lazy and pathetic. And it’s just you publicly saying “look how great I am by pretending to care”. Cuz. I’m a white male, who lives in the west and is so fucking over privileged, I want to remind you that I will always get thru my wittle insignificant prawbwems, and be killing it. And maybe sometimes as I drive my high end tesla to a $500 per plate dinner, I may feel a little guilty about it and drop a dumbass quote like this on Twitter, so I can feel better about myself. But that’s as far as it goes. If you got issues, don’t bother me, let your problems be someone else’s problem. I’m just pretending doing to care.

Hi. Thanks for your immensely thoughtful & imaginative disapproval packed with a world of assumption. You’re entirely entitled to it.

Some of my closest friends and family members are going through some heavy stuff so I felt compelled to share. Maybe it helps someone else who reads it too. Maybe it doesn’t. I just put it out there.

Anyways, there’s a world of pain and heartbreak, and loss that this clearly does not apply to. I think there are better resources for that than r/GetMotivated.

You sound like you’re no stranger to pain so I’m sorry you’re hurting enough to express this much hate on a post you could have easily scrolled past. If you’d like to have a conversation and find out a little bit about each other I’m always happy to do that. I wish you the best.

Nah I don’t think it will get better. I’m always suprised by how far lower I could go in my life. Just recently got rejected for an appeal to continue my studies in undergraduate. While my friends are already close to graduating next year at 23, my life just keep getting worse

How do you know they're not alone? A random pseudo-motivational post on an anonymous website is supposed to make people "not alone"?
