As you can tell I am not the happiest person but that's a look inside my head. I had 8 years of suffering...I don't know why your life is such a nihtmare, but I can only say that things CAN change....it's not sure and you need to be strong and to react I was 1mm from the bottom, maybe I slightly touched it, but then I was brave enought to change my life Often it's a question of will (I'm talking about depression) but I don't know your situation and the reason of your troubles But we're here and I'll be glad to listen to you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haylie19 Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 I feel like that when I hear songs like Is This the World We've Created, by Queen. If you haven't heard that song, I really must insist. ... Freddie was the man... Oh wow thanks i haven't heard that one:biggrin2: I can understand...the song is really good and yes Freddie was the man:wink2: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
violet_sky Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 I want to post my thoughts but you may find them disturbing because I'm highly emotionally unstable and kind of dark but I will post one and someone tell me if they are ok or not for here, ok? thought: I'm really kinda depressed and feel like injuring myself cause life sucks. As you can tell I am not the happiest person but that's a look inside my head. I had a very depressive and dark period a couple of years ago myself. Nothing anybody said or did could help, bad enough it seemed as I was falling deeper down that big black hole with every second. I even couldn't explain it to myself because there was no objective reason for me being so sad and desperate. But I think that is the definition of depression as I know it ... Anyway what I want to say is that it is very hard to give advice to somebody who suffers from depression. In the end of the day it is only you who can help yourself out of this. Only you know what you need to get out there. Maybe you don't know yet how, but you will find out. You just should know that you are not alone, we're here to lend a hand. Grab it whenever you feel like doing so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liz Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 I really have to agree with Violet Sky. It is hard to give advice about depression... Everyone's situation is unique, but, I think a lot of us have been there in our own way- myself included- and like Eir, Lollipop Monkey, and Violet said, we're still here for you and are willing to listen, which I found through experience is a very important thing... Having someone who will listen to you even though you're having a rough time. As Eir says, things can change and it could take you a bit to figure out how, but keep trying and you'll get there.

mouselle Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 Thinking about Mika. Wondering if he is the person he keeps showing us. I have watched that Hong Kong interview yesterday for the first time. He was talking about his approach towards work and about how much he keeps insisting that everything is to be done properly. Something like 'I don't want to make friends at work, I want the people to get things done..." This is not entirely new to me, a while ago I already had a (good) conversation about that topic with AKim but seeing that new video brought it all back again. He also said that he was the kind of person who can tell people right in their faces that they look awful and so on.. These words have been reverberating inside my head since I have heard them, for I can hardly believe that. He always appears so genuine in everything he does and all we get to see and hear of him is always so nice, it's close to transcendental. It is almost like he was on a mission. Like a kind of postmodern Jesus, forgive me for the religious reference, but I really can't think of any image that could meet my impression better than this. I mean there are hardly any people saying 'Oh, Mika, well, yes, he's ok.' No there are the fans with their hearts as open as can be and... well...people who don't like him. There's no way to get stuck in the middle. He pushes himself so hard to his limits (and honestly I really do think it is not all his management's decision, but his own wish to do so), almost as if he thought he was running out of time. And the things he does. He's dealing so gently with his fans. He knows exactly how to make each of them happy within just a few minutes all by intuition. Just to name a few examples, he made natie sign the shirt she made for him. How nice was that just to turn the tables and make her feel like she was the celebrity. And the girl that proposed to him and got his hawaiian necklace... LOL. And turning to Sunshine after having realized that she knows the lyrics by heart. His empathy is remarkable. It is hard to believe that all his hearty thoughtful gestures could be just calculated ....nothing but a cleverly-devised strategy of an ingenious mind to pave the way to stardom. Someone once mentioned in another thread that he seems to be all in once: The puppet and the puppet player. What a brilliant metaphor. I couldn't get it out of my head until now. Maybe from that point of view the lyrics of Grace Kelly get a new denotation. Maybe it is not all about being angry at the music industry but more than that. He demonstrates every day that he can be anything we like. Like 'Say what you want, I'll be it for you: Nice, hot, giggly, thoughtful, modest, topless, serious, spontaneous, gay, not gay, post-gay, a singer, a painter, a teaser, a storyteller, a stripper, a little boy, an agony aunt, your Winnie the Pooh.' Identity mad? Maybe. But all on purpose. Oh well, I should really stop analyzing people in public. But on the other hand Mika is a public person and this forum is not the New York Times. Forgive me for sharing my weird thoughts. Maybe they are just that: weird - well, that's what I am. I leave you to your own thoughts about it now but not without the personal conclusion I have drawn for myself out of this mad inside-of-my-head-discussion: To me the awesomely amazing public Mika is real, first because I want it to be like that, second because noone can really act and pretend to be somebody else if their traits of character are actually totally different from the image to be drawn for the public ALL the time, and he is standing in the spotlight almost everyday... And after all I still wish I had known him before. (current state of identities: ) I have been considering the Mika contradiction and your thoughts. I have kept my discusson fairly superficial too, as I agree - it is not fair to do too much public analysis. However, I found your thoughts too interesting to resist responding. Genuinely nice people often judge themselves quite harshly, and think they are mean when no-one else would. So Mika might say he is a perfectionist and demands his own way, while a person working with him might find him accurate, decisive and clear in his vision. Mika said he can say "You look awful today" and get away with it - the person addressed would not hear a criticism but an honest, unbiased opinion expressed without malice. They could choose to take offense, but most would not. Mika is on a mission. He has been planning for it his whole life, and now he is living it. He has put a lot of thought into it, and knows a lot of detail about what he wants, he has far more than a general direction of "I want to be famous". He wants to have a long career, and he wants the fans who love him now to still be with him after many years pass. He is working hard and sincerely to deserve and keep our love. We have the easy part. We can stay or we can drift, and no-one is watching us. Mika's every move is being videoed and discussed. From fans who have met him, there are NO negative reports. My mind boggles at the care and determination that takes, that no matter how tired or ill he feels, we come first when we meet him. He is human, and can restrict that slightly, by having his minders do the hard lines of "time to go", but he can and does over-ride that to give us even more time. I think it will be a very long time before he can do it himself. His manager finds MFC members and ask questions and brings us back-stage to meet Mika. There is no doubt in his mind that Mika wants to meet us, and will always make time for us. It is not his manager who needs to know what the fans want, it is Mika. In another post someone said he was still star struck and finding it difficult to believe how much we love him, so he is kind in case we leave. I think that's partly true, but he is not a needy person in general, who must be loved. I do think we fans get the best of him. He has less patience with some interviewers than for the stupidest of fans who scream and grope. He is calculated with the things that he finds important to his career: - his music and songwriting, so he is perfectionist in those areas, writing and recording - his fans - he wants us to be loyal - so he tries to be deserving of loyalty. - his live performances - so he will give the best possible show he can despite tiredness, illness or injury So, I find Mika human, but very hardworking, and extremely focussed and determined to achieve his goals. Mika will not stand still, and rest on his laurels - no matter how good he already is, he requires himself to keep growing and learning, saying that if he stops it will be because he is dead. Watching how quickly he learns, the next 35 years of his career will be worth watching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

violet_sky Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 I've got inspired today to think about decisions and about the fact that we never know whether the things we do are right or wrong until we have actually done them. Thinking about that and becoming philosophic from all that head spinning again one of my very favourite poems came to my mind. It is called 'The Road not taken' by Robert Frost and my English teacher gave it to us in our very last lesson before the final exams at school. Here it is: THE ROAD NOT TAKENRobert Frost Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, And sorry I could not travel both And be one traveler, long I stood And looked down one as far as I could To where it bent in the undergrowth; Then took the other, as just as fair, And having perhaps the better claim, Because it was grassy and wanted wear; Though as for that the passing there Had worn them really about the same, And both that morning equally lay In leaves no step had trodden black. Oh, I kept the first for another day! Yet knowing how way leads on to way, I doubted if I should ever come back. I shall be telling this with a sigh Somewhere ages and ages hence: Two roads diverged in a wood, and I- I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference.

Here it is: We do the best we can at the time, with the information that we have, and that is enough. Holding that thought gives me a lot of strength. It also demands I live up to a high standard, because I need to make sure that I am always doing the best I can, and using all the information I have. And so I learn and grow. (I love that poem too!)
