There's your problem. Right there. It's that little four letter word you used several times over in that last reply.

''Wish.

Wishing didn't get me through bootcamp, and it sure as hell won't break you out of this funk. What you need to do is stop wishing and start doing. If you want to have a better day tomorrow, wake up and force a smile. Laugh over stupid things. Chuckle when things go wrong and smile ear to ear while you pick up the pieces and rebuild. Eventually this stuff will become second nature, and the grins and forced laughter aren't forced anymore. You start actually being happy again and look at the best side of a pile of shit, saying it looks like this one guy's nose!

Try that on for size and get back to me in after a week of it. We'll see how thing've changed.
