You can't believe how unhappy I am. My girlfriend dumped me, I lost my job and, to make matters worse, I caught a serious disease. My life has turned into hell over past two months. I lost the last trace of hope and have no wishes now, which have never happened to me before. Everyone turned away from me , it seems that no one is interested in me, let alone cares. I'm suffering like saint Job, the only difference is that I don't have leprosy like him, but my illness is only slightly better. I've got to spend all my money on the treatment, and I'm not bound to get healed. Anyway, if someone complains to me, I'll tell him\her all this and that I wish I had their problems. O Thor, why does it happening to me?
