Meh. Acting related drivel.

I am sorry this is happening to you. That's really not fair to someone trying to make it. People are cruel and just not nice.

It's their money--it's their choice what company they use. Period. It is likely a matter of contracts. Why waste valuable emotional energy over something that you cannot control?

Anyway, I am done with this topic.

Peter
Sounds like everyone is against you,I would like to here there side of the story unfortunately that's not going to happen
You hav gotten some good advice,from some on herei would suggest you at least think of taking it

Karen is right; eventually people will stop replying to your posts just because there is nothing new to be said. I'm not gonna lie to you and encourage you to pursue dreams I don't think you have a prayer of a chance of attaining. For some people pursing a career in the movies is the right thing for them; for you it has been an absolute disaster and, no, you are not the completely blameless victim here. But there's no dialogue to be had with you because you are absolutely stuck in your circular ways of thinking - reading you is like listening to the same record skip over and over and over again.

If you actually needed to go through this stage to process stuff before moving on, then fair enough. But I don't think you are doing any processing. We can't make the acting people like you. We can't undo your reputation for you. You have a bad temper, bad enough to land you in trouble with the law many times. You'd think your horrendous experiences might have made you take more stock of yourself, but no, it never seems to. If you want my advice you'd give up on these acting people, you'd give up on your "dream" of being an actor. You're not suitable for it. In fact you won't be suitable for anything until you change your attitude and take some (real) responsiblity for your behaviour.

NB: Taking responsiblity doesn't mean verbally or physically assaulting a girl and then harrassing her further by writing grovelling letters of apology or constantly messaging her on Facebook. I know people like that, and I can't stand them. Think they can get away with anything because they apologise for it later on.

I'm not trying to trick you or trap you. I'm just trying to make you think about what you are doing. We can't change anything; you can't change anything. My guess is that these people are filling a void in your life, without which it would be even more boring and meaningless than it already is. Most people turn to drink or drugs when they need to fill an intolerable void; you have chosen a somewhat more unorthodox method, but no less destructive for it.

I don't know if it would help to treat your fixation with these people as an 'addiction' that you need to wean yourself off. I do know that you clinging onto thoughts of them is only hurting you, not them. Whether or not you realise that, and whether or not you can lessen their hold over you is down to you.

I'll just add one more thing. Folks can be cruel and cliquey when confronted with anyone different, odd, or unusual, particularly in a group setting - this is no different on the internet, if anything the sense of detachment is enhanced online. You can obsess over it, but it's not gonna change - you are not going to change human nature and millions of years of human evolution. All you can do is walk away from the sh!theads - that you could do right now if you wanted to.

Peter,

This is a depression forum. Not a forum about movies and acting. If you have depression we would be more than happy to discuss it. I am locking this thread as it is way off topic.
