My disappointments of late have been wearing me down. I am waiting on God's next great move. The anticipation is killing me.

Are God's moves more like dance moves or chess moves?

I am certain I don't know which God prefers, sVs. I always hoped it would be dance moves... Maybe jazz hands or some other Broadway inspired piece of choreography.

As long as Earth revolves around the sun all while im aware, ill never be cool with the present. I have never been more encumbered by depression. How do you gain confidence to succeed if you fail consistently at everything you do.
The brief moments that my focus is on something other than my thoughts are nice.

Stop failing. If you aren't succeeding, it's because you aren't trying hard enough.

Well its actually more complex than that. I do try hard to be happy, but most of the time im left confused. Youre soposed to learn from your mistakes, then try something new that prevents the same mistakes from happening again. But if youre not even sure what the mistake was and what was done right, then how do you progress?

You recognize the thought patterns that lead you to depression and you shut them down early. Then you realize that shit worth doing is never easy and rarely goes off without a hitch and you look at each failure as a lesson learned and a step closer to success.
Try building something. A lego set, a computer, a car. Figure out how much time and money it will take, then multiply the cost times 3 and the time by 2, and boom you have a project. This will get your dopamine pumping and build some self esteem.

I think I could use more hobbies or something. I'm not sure.
I've found an amazing AMAZING partner/woman, but we're on a more or less weekend relationship, pepper in a weekday or 2 here and there, but I find myself lonely and bored and anxious at times during the week.
It bothers me because it sends up red flags to myself. How can I be happy if I get anxiety alone? Its nothing to do with anybody else, I believe it's just that I'm so extroverted that I crave other interaction and the only time I tend to be at peace alone is when I'm working on a gift or various project for somebody else.... So it's like I'm with them by proxy. People dont tend to understand this feeling of an extrovert. So it leads them to say advice that doesn't really help. Codependent comes up a lot, but that's not it... It's something different, but I can't vocalize what it is, which causes more frustration.
So, while my life is the best it's been in a long long time, I see things that worry me.... and that adds more anxiety to the issue.
I'm tempted to see a therapist, but, lol, I think the appeal there is just another person to talk to. It's gotten worse since I got home from burning man. I saw what was possible for me, but that's only one week a year. So, to get along the other 51.....
Hmmm,that felt sad yet freeing. "winter is coming", too.... Which sort of spooks me because it lends less opportunity to get out and socialize.
Anyhow, shroomery, thanks for listening. My present is great, just anxious.

I'm pretty fucking happy. I have a place to live, more money than I spend, tons of weed and cactus, sunshine almost year round. I can't complain. One thing I could use is a good lady in my life, but at the same time, I place a high value on simplicity in my life and oftentimes romantic relationships and simplicity seem to be at odds with each other. Guess I just haven't met the right lady yet.
