Just walked out of my condo building to see the same farangs again sitting outside the mini mart with beers Shirts off in their 60's some I would say younger Very large red nose, shouting ,giggling That's their routine and you expect this as normal !

Oh my this is my last day here and j can't wait to get out!!

I think that's New Zealand sweetie we don't have sheep in Sydney ,get off the grog ,your a unfit old fart (your words not mine) who refuses to go to the gym or achieving goals !!!! You have done nothing but sit by that bloody pool and turn ho back to your small 21sqm room and watch A touch of Frost ! Get a life !

7 weeks is too long in one place ! I probably won't come here again all I saw was drunken old fools ! I need to be on a place that Stimulates my mind ,a place where people are of intelligent,and interesting , NOT sitting by a pool in view talay !!!!!

Exactly I have moved buildings to Arcadia resort where I see the same drunken farangs buying cheap Leo to drown their sorrows Please is retirement not for me or is Pattaya? I do like Manila riding the subway could see myself living there so I could walk up & down the subway

I can retire tomorrow if I want I can access my Superannuation But ...but....the question is....if I did ...say I retired from my job tomorrow...accessed the Super Then what?? So I retire to view talay in a room , the super company send me 65,000 baht a month then I do what ? Sit by the pool everyday ? What will I do

Im going for walks, I'm going for massage, I'm sitting by the pool ,I'm going to the gym .... I don't like to drink or bars Could I live like this if I retired ? No thanks You know how depressed I would be sitting in a dark 21sqm room in the view talay?

I look forward to going back to a routine These old drunken old expats don't have routines I watch one old guy every morning sit at that mini mart opposite Arcadia resort with the other drinks he then waddles up to his room in a stupor Please I don't want to end up with NO routine Waking up to do the same drinking all day I honestly believe these guys were NOT alcoholicd before they lived in Pattaya They are bored with their life's ,no routine,nothing to do etc

Well I'm going back to Australia tommrrw after spending 7 weeks on off in Pattaya And I'm looking forward to going back ! I done my study of the retired single guys here living in small rooms in both View talay and Arcadia Beach resort and what a booooring life everyday Waking up , in a small room ,some yes same without balconies Waking up toddling down to the pool , staying all day on ASEAN then as my newly found old friend I met at Arcadia resort does ,he can't wait till the bars open so he can go get drunk and waddle Home in the evening to sleep and do it all again Some even sit ALL day at a cafe bookshop to get company What a boring life I'm so bored I can't wait to mop the hospital floors on my next shift on Sunday Waking up , doing nothing all day Ok for a few weeks but please please don't sentence me to 20 years of it No thanks not for me I need to do something in my retirement,sit by a pool is ok for a couple of days but no I'm not going to sit at hard drinking like these drunken old fools I see everyday Even opposite I see a mini mart with drunks sitting outside drinking beer all day same guys ,same guys unfit looking shirts off in the evening after drinking the cheap mini mart beer they drunkenly go up to their rooms Maybe ok for a 75plus single guy but please you are just wasting days

That's because he enjoys doing the prostate exam on you 🍑🤞

Susan ,you would have to be mad not to make use of the cheap dentist on your vacation. But...as you only joined this forum last week.... supposedly anyway...you wouldn't know. I bet anything that you are another forum member on here using the name SUSAN .... probably you Liverpool Lou ....is this your feminine side coming out using a woman's name when your a bloke? Fair dinkum you using another name joining last week and picking a woman's name , some screwed up people on here !

In Australia to see a GP costs me $60 after Medicare rebate , something like 5 minutes consultation . Blood tests are FREE by the Australian government though and I get a full blood test monthly But paying $60 just to see a doctor for 5 minutes is outrageous Mind you I paid the equivalent of $42 AUD to see Dr Oliver in Pattaya recently AND he wanted 1400 baht or around $65 AUD for a blood test !!!!! 1400 baht for a blood test !

Im going to be honest with you ,I took 7 weeks leave from my job . Pattaya made me depressed especially after 3 weeks The greatest happy moments was walking up & down the Manila subway last Monday & Tuesday night !!!!! Just the look on the passengers face as they looked up at me walking through the 8 carriages . I was dangling a set of keys in one hand patrolling like a police man , I felt good

I can't do even do 10 pushups ,but I lift weights everyday It's a good challenge to start though

Does medication actually cure the depression or just treat it I remember years ago when I was working in the actual hospital wards in the Psych dept a guy came in and he had to have Shock treatment! I didn't know that still exists in Australia but it does Apparently he would lay days in bed without getting out ! I think they put electric stun gun to the side of your head I heard.

Push ups is another one Anyone here over 60 can do say 25 push ups without stopping ?

How dangerous is that ? A very big challenge and high risk ! I wouldn't do it , you risk being hit by cars and trucks Very big challenge,who would do that ? Anyone ?

Buzzin in Pattaya has 100k subscribers He was very brave to admit he has depression caused by no particular reason Chemical imbalance? I also get depressed ,some days are down days no reason why

It's" "Buzzin in Pattaya '" YouTuber

This Pattaya YouTuber who was talking about it today is a bar owner and for some reason he has no idea why he is depressed? This is chemically imbalance,is it not ?

I just watched a famous Pattaya YouTuber admit he has depression, and was on medication. One would envy his life and wonder why So let's talk about is depression REAL? I want to tell you guys I travelled to Manila Philippines last week Last Wednesday I ordered a Grab from my hotel to the Manila North cemetery,a place where people live Every song playing in a Grab in the Philippines is usually slow 1980's music and Air Supply or similar The driver doesn't even acknowledge me and the radio is on playing Air Supply," just as I am" song As soon as I get to Manila North cemetery there is more old sad 1980's music playing, Anyway I walk thru the gates to see people living in maseolums or crypts they look happy and well dressed They look at me staring ,there are signs no photos I start to imagine sadness and I start crying People were looking at me I really sorry for these people I see a guy and this is no joke sitting on a crypt wearing a 711 uniform well dressed I felt sadness he must live in a grave room and work at 711 I walk up to him ," Do 711 know you live in here and work there ? Without even saying what? He immediately said Yes Sir I started to feel emotional and the manager of the cemetery at the gates seem to be concerned about me as I left crying he asked me if I was ok coming out of his tinted air conditioning office as others are forced to live in grave tombs ,glasses around his nose ,are you ok sir ? I hate this in the Philippines being called that I have no idea about if this was depression? I feel depression is not real and others factors,such as real sadness in the heat of the moment I find if I don't get my 250mg testereone shot monthly I feel sad ,down ,sad music line air supply goes thru my head Is depression real ??

You would go out with him wearing black socks and sandals ? In hot weather and he's wearing these !

I'm back in Pattaya

Very true..but ...it's not so easy in real life ..yo let someone push past you

Very interesting points. Possibly
