It's become clear that from responses to question I needed to clarify a few points. When I mentioned replusive it was about the norms within society in terms of socialization (like parties, driving, org faith, etc) not of the persons themselves. Yes, i have had therapy before on this matter, though only advice that made sense was a probability i'll never find what i'm looking for in such a rural conservative part of the country. it's no offense to those who are that, just it's something i can't connect with.
I certainly understand the idea of volunteering, i have applied to dozens of volunteer places, though have been turned down by each (even homeless shelters since all local ones are christian runned and require persons of such faiths to pertake in them).
Maybe i am trying to justify something (would explain the additude of all the q's i've asked). Maybe i'm trying to punish myself for past or future. Guess i'm just seeking ideas i have not tried or heard of yet

Most Americans are depressed to a degree. but many dont believe in medications to make them "happy". Ever look in yourself for a reflection and analize that for the answer?

You sound like a candidate for my unique seminar. Here is a newspaper article about it:

Your "problem" probably does not require therapy so much as a workable set of tactics.
BTW, I now live in a small town in a conservative part of the country -- and can live comfortably with that -- because a check arrives each month from the big city, I'm not dependent on the local economy or local businessmen for my livelihood.

close, yet no longer the way you're considering. We count on eternal cycles. We trust that we were born to a heavenly moms and dads as spirits, we are actually God's little ones, no longer figuratively. all of us lived as spirit beings previously we were born, yet we were like Adam and Eve, we had no understanding of sturdy and evil (how ought to we? All we knew develop into happiness, there is not any evil with God properly?). So we were despatched to Earth to be examined and to attain actual bodies, and we can proceed our progression after we die and are judged. sure, that is assumed that when we die we will be as gods, having our own households in heaven (it really is the reason Mormons have this kind of solid concentration on households), which will also finally choose to progression. even if, it is not any longer a male-ego powered element, and we do not study about the "many different halves" area, it really is hypothesis. We even trust all of us had a component in arising the universe, with God the carry close planner and Jesus orchestrating. Theres no discrepency between male and woman, each and each and every is merely as major and ought to artwork merely as demanding and recieve equivalent danger, we are all judged. also, we do not trust that Adam develop into born on yet another planet, yet Earth. it is all somewhat basic sounding if the lesser doctrines are not understood, i will now see :) . The doctrine of a pre-mortal existence ought to correctly be got here upon in the Pearl of significant fee. It also is going into the conflict in heaven and Lucifer's fall from grace. Kjelstad- i have under no circumstances ever heard doctrine on the solar or moon. the position in the mag of discourses? i could not discover it in vol.13. If it is there, it really is basic. we do not trust there are human beings residing there. We do even if trust there are different planets available in the universe with our brothers and sisters on them. BUNNIES- it is a notably poor element to assert. i'm thoroughly no longer racially prejudiced, and that i'm optimistic that the black relations in my homestead ward does no longer take exhilaration in it, nor the tremendous black inhabitants of Mormons I met in London. And yeah, it sound extraordinary, yet would not it also sound tremendous that we are going to no longer merely be residing a dull eternity floating round in heaven after we die? that we are going to nonetheless have our households? provides me wish and something to look foward to!

try reading ecclesiastics in the bible. it will show you when compared to God, everything is meaningless. so whatever you or others thinks or does about yourself or whatever, it's all stuff. you may not like yourself but God surely does! things are meaningless compared to God. yes, we have to go on and live life daily, but as we live we shouldn't worry about meaningless stuff. ask yourself, what is it that God loves about me so much that he sent his one and only son to die for my sins so that i might have eternal life? also, in this life your on your own. so deal with it. and remember, no matter how bad it gets for you, someone else has it worse!

The issue here is that most people don't think about this kind of stuff. If we all did, we would all be depressed.
