I remarried about eight years ago, and after living in the highlonesome, moved down in the desert in a big city. I hate it here, noisey, rude people, crowded etc. I was going to bring my little camp trailer down and do some camping, but found out it's illegal to park a trailer in my driveway. So, I spent a bunch of money on a nice tent and related gear, then drove out to a nice campground by a river, lots of trees, nice place, only to find out camping was shut down for the winter. Everything I like to do is illegal here, I'm really down and discouraged, no choice but to stay here now. I think it's about time to pull the plug and get out.
Would appreciate prayers to help me out and boost my feelings. Thanks follks.

Prayers up from here, and also praying you seek help for the Depression.
Prayers up for you from here. I always considered suicide as a permanent solution to a temporary problem. Hang in there my friend. There are good folks right where you are.
Prayers up.
stick it out , things will get better eventually . I lost everything I had about three years back . still have`nt fully recovered but I`ll be damned if I`m letting the bungholes of the world win ! get yourself some help with the depression , and just dont give up . pretty sure you`ve got the prayers and best wishes of everyone on this site !
The city is a bad place, but it's what you make it---somewhat. Get yourself a good map and look for camp spots in National forest, better'n a campground no loud partys in middle nite. Talk to someone friend, we rootin for ya. Tom
What everyone else has said.Why not look for a muzzleloading club nearby and attend their doins that way you would meet some people with similar interests.I am assuming you are into muzzleloading since you posted on here.
You just have to find YOUR space,breathe the fresh air pilgrim,it'll do you good. Prayers up for you [conf]
Brother ,prayers up from here.Life is just life. Find a way to change it. We all have our down times. I hope by pullin the plug you mean moving and finding a better life and not meaning suicide. If thats the case seek some help pard. Aint nuthin worth that.
Prayers on the way..
My prayers go up for you my friend!
Don't jump the twang, my brother. I have been dealing with depression since my early adolescence. I've been where you are now. I found help; it took a few years and a drug change but I am a survivor. I can't emphasize the importance of finding help. It still scares me to remember what I was ready to do. The alternative is much too permanent.
Praying for you Beezle. We're thinking of you.

Prayers for you, I hope your weathering this out.

Good advice and something that I've taken to heart myself. You've taken a vital first step by joining us here at TMotC. That in itself is a good-faith offer of friendship and something that most if not all the members here consider themselves as such; friends. I appreciated the friendships and support I've gained here on this forum over the years but nevermore so until December 13, 2013; the day I woke up from a coma after suffering a catastrophic illness. I got my brother to bring my laptop to the hospital a few days later and then used my new Christmas present, a Kindle, to get online and post an update along with a prayer request here. I can tell you from firsthand experience that when the folks here say that they will keep you in their thoughts and prayers, they mean it! I needed hope, support and most of all friends outside of my immediate family in order to pull through my ordeal, which continues to this day. I strongly encourage you to do the same.
My thoughts and prayers are with you.

It is important to know that there is hope, help and a way out.
Writing to us is a first step. The next is to take a second step to find assistance.
My coming out of depression started with knowing that there was hope. I am so glad I sought that help!

Thanks folks, but it hasn't changed my plans, the national forest here is closed up, no camping till summer and 115 degrees, idiots, everything here is against the rules, then when I lost my pickup in a wreck recently, that was the end. Going to sign my check over to the ol lady and she can have me cremated with it. Can't find a pickup to replace mine, so it's time to check out. Was fun while it lasted, but, dreams are for fools.
Before you check out - have you talked with anyone ? Clergy, The VA if you are a vet... or Any of the Hotlines? Please get some one to talk to before you pull the plug....
hntr when you've had a belly full, friends don't help much, they can't change the situation. Things just keep piling up, so I got tired of it all. My little dog Max jumped up in my lap and started giving me a lot of love, and I looked into his little brown eyes, and knew I couldn't leave him. To him we're a threesome and that's all that matters to him, so I put my arms around my little teddy bear and am still here. No one will ever love you like your dog. Not a woman in this world can compare to my little teddybear. ;D
Thanks red badger for the help in your pm, tried to write you tonight, but it didn't go through.

Brian.
As I stated in my PM's and my last post on camping... Want to see you in March at the shoot... Should have me and my grandson there. Need to share that cup and some time around the fire.. Only three months away now.. Just hold on. That dog could be your savior yet.. Know what you mean about how they look to you. had one like that for years before he had to go on his last hunt and not come home with me.

I understand where you are coming from, Dec. 17 2014 my 50 year old wife had to have knee replacement, then we just about had our part paid off than she is diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in Oct. at least it is operable, they need to shrink it to get it a way from a large artery, after 3 chemo treat treatments the MRI showed that it has shrunk to les than half of its original size. Prayer works
Well, I made it thru the bad places and have found help in the desert, camping and shooting. Decided to listen to my own heart for a change. Thanks to all of you who've been encouraging and have helped me thru this situation.
My prayers for your continued recovery and additional altitude away from those dark and lonely places. God bless you.
good for you I know it can get rough but the good days will come again ,I lost access to my whole camp setup about 5 years ago, its stored with a buddy about 100 miles away and I cant afford to run back and forth to go to a local rondy,things look bleak to me too, My wife doesn't sypathise with me at all as she deals with severe depression herself(we're a pair) hardly get to shoot anymore but just have to keep looking forward to better days ,just hope my days don't run out
