[QUOTE="SuZir, post: 550187, member: 14557"] Just got a new venting call from him. School is stupid, his teachers are stupid, weather is stupid, his car is stupid, life is stupid, town he lives in is stupid, food is stupid, everything is stupid. And why we force him to finish school? It is stupid! Even if he doesn't make it in his sport, he doesn't want to go any stupid medication school or stupid University to study chem or engineering or any other stupid school. He will just work as an early morning mail man delivering newspapers or something and you don't need any stupid schools for that. And he even doesn't want to hear back from his practise finals because his stupid teachers will just give him some stupid work to do to prepare him a and those stupid teachers just want to make him do it to make their stupid school do better in evaluations (mainly based on results of these final exams) and he is too stupid to do it anyway and then everyone will just yell at him about it and how stupid he is. :sigh: Couldn't help him much. Just told him to lock his computer (to prevent him from relapsing to gambling), take a walk outside, read or watch something fun and go to sleep. That everything is likely to feel better tomorrow morning. And if not, there are other ways to handle all the 'stupid', but not much to be done to any of that this evening. And if it turns so that he really can't finish school and graduate, we can live with also that and no one will yell at him. I also asked him to call me any time during the night, if he starts to feel even worse. But of course also I was stupid and don't understand anything. Not sure about how much was just venting and being melodramatic and how much was true anxiety. Knowing him, he is likely to deny whole phone call or at least what he said during it tomorrow and I'm the one being over the line and melodramatic by thinking he may have an issue... [/QUOTE]
