    It is very risky to give this advice, it may be the best advice you ever give or the worse advice you ever give :)

    Being stuck is a luxury. Start working more and you will be too tired to feel stuck. Plus the revenue stream is nice.

    Well right now I'm doing a 10 months compulsory army duty (all men has to do this in my country)... Feels like I'm wasting a year of my life for nothing. I can't be with my girlfriend nor my friends, just stuck in the woods in a infantry fighting vehicle... We haven't been to war for over 200 years!

    Crap.

    It can be a fun experience if you look at it another way. All those military hardware :D.
    Take some photo's among big guns and military vehicles and show off to people.

    Sounds good to me. The good state of the Swedish armed forces keep Sweden out of WW1 and WW2 as well stoped the iron curtain expanding into Norway.

    i work everyday, in a very umconfortable schedule (3 to 10 pm)...
    And i don't exactly "earn" money, i get to pay the house bills and that's all, since half of my salary goes in my work (some food or something to drik, cigarettes, etc).
    So....i know a little bit about being stuck...

    3 to 10pm is really in the middle of no where. Maybe you should learn from some of the members here start to create an online biz and hopefully this biz will grow big enough for you to get out of the job.

    nah, i'm just here because i like the site.
    As everything in my life, it doesn't matter how hard i try, i won't get anything.
    even if some guy comes and say "hey, i give you a million dollars to start your business and teach you step by step how to multply the millon by 100!" i'd still screw it up, seems like some karma from my previous life (i must have been someone like Judas or Hitler), so i just don't feel like trying.
    If you check it up, the 3rd link in my sig is something that i replaced from an outdated one, and the other 2 are from a site that i like a lot, not mine and i'm nothing but a member there. I got really tired of trying and failing.
    You might "think" that i could be doing better if i want to, but i just "know" that it can be worst.

    You need to learn positive thinking my friend. It may not make your life better, but it will certainly keep you happy and positive even in the face of problems. Here's a start, scroll down and click on an article link. Read 4 or 5 of them thoroughly.

    lol.

    I'm gonna read some of those. Still, i got to the conclusion that positive thinking ends up being negative.
    I used to think, you know, positive like "tomorrow will be a better day", "if i give my best, i can achieve it", and all that, but i ended up frustrated.
    When you expect good things, and they come, is just as you expected, but when you expect something good and nothing good comes, you get dissapointed and it hurts.
    Now, if you don't expect anything, and nothing comes, it's just as you expected, but if you don't expect anything, and something good comes, you're happier because it's something "surprisingly good".
    For someone like me, is better to not expect anything....
    It's hard to explain, but i even got tired of expecting good things, long story, and i don't even know why i'm talking about this now, since it's always the same: "you need therapy".....dum**ss....

    I have been through the same things in the past. However my experience has been that if you never expect or strive for anything, you won't get anything.
    So it's better to wish for and try for the best things in life and ignore any sorrow or disappointment and keep striving.

    Any time I've ever felt "stuck" or "depressed" it's usually a sign of dissatisfaction or frustration in my life. The only way to combat the feeling is to make a major change. Shock the system. Change your sleeping patterns, or eating habits.

    Daily exercise usually helps me, I go for 4 mile run/walks, you'd be amazed at the things you think about and the stress that gets relived simply by getting out of the office for 30 minutes.

    Usually once I've implemented some sort of lifechange, the frustrating area will reveal itself and can be dealt with.

    Just my two cents...
