Answer 1

Depression and still strugling

Answer 2

My greatest struggle in life seems to pale compared to the cancer survivor, the person who was addicted to coke, the people who have lost so much in their lives. I struggle every day against myself, in trying to become a better friend, man, and father to my 2 year old. I succumb more often than not to the illnesses which physically and spirtually ravage my body.

I discovered a year ago that I have a liver problem that prevents "it" from working as a normal liver functions. I cannot metabolize certain chemicals, and being almost in complete liver failure - and not knowing it - decided to find out just why my pee was the color of apple cider. Since that time almost a year ago, I also had my gall bladder removed, bought a trek 1200 bicycle, begun riding, trying to eat better, and just joined the YMCA to begin working out in hopes of losing the weight I've been told I must.

I struggle each day with the simplest decisions on whether I should eat McDonald's for lunch because like their fries, on why I can't enjoy an occational ice cold beer or take a pepcid when my stomach is upset or take a tylenol or advil when my muscles ache after a hard ride.

I get through it because I love my stunningly beautiful 2 year old daughter and I want to see her grow up and become the famous person she's destined to be. I get through it because I love my wife, difficult as that is at times. And, I get through it because I don't have a choice. I don't want to have a heart attack at 40, I don't want to need a liver transplant next year. What other choice is there? I put my faith in God, and work as hard as I possibly can.

Answer 3

In high school and college your future is always the most important thing to figure out. AND that's asking a lot for any 14-22 year old!

The largest struggle in my life hasn't been raising a child while in college or being laid off a few times WHILE raising a child in college.

It's been being told that I would fail then realizing I'm in the wrong major--enough though I just graduating.

The biggest struggle has been that I don't know what I want to be "when I grow up." But you know what? It's okay. I have a full life ahead of me to figure it all out.

Answer 6

Not having a job for three years, working for temp services for those three years and just not feeling like I have a place in this world. Till this day I still don't,(I have a job now) I feel useless and I haven't been able to get things straight at all. I think my life is over, I'm washed up, I suppose until I actually physically die I must keep going.

Answer 7

My single point agenda in life was serve the country in may capacity as a senior government revenue officer since I joined .I had heard lurid stories about the millions you can make in this branch. But coming out of college I had determined to keep my hands clean. Believe me, this circus of teading the straight and narro path is quite a tough job. But with grit and courage and help from my family members I waded through it all remaining myself bone dry. Not that there no serpents tempting me to taste the forbidden fruit but the mistake of Adam was constantly before me warning me in times of crisis. Perhaps God had helped me to cross over when there was no bridge. I thank Him .I have retired long back and trust me it is not necessary to be corrupt to do job in government..

Answer 9

Patience, patience, patience has been my life's struggle. When I want something I have a hard time revolving around someone else's schedule. Learning to understand and be secure with who I am and trying to embrace that part of myself has helped. Writing poetry and songs while listening to music helps calm me down a lot. Also, physical exertion such as exercise or sex!!!
