In my experience, the people that are truly fucked are full of amazing insights
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.

That can be true, while simultaneously not knowing how to best apply those insights. It often takes other "fucked" people to show the way.

Incidentally, blade, the purpose of that sort of inpatient treatment isn't so much to fix whatever it is that is at the root of your troubles, but rather to stabilize you and get you steered in the right direction. Sounds like that at least worked. But yeah, it doesn't necessarily measure up to expectation.

This is true, also it is amazing how innovative you get when wanting to kill yourself. Somehow I was going to use my mosin nagant. Anyway, it is true we often get stuck on the how. I think my break up was the straw that broke me.

I always look forward to going to the mental hospital, it gives my an opportunity to meet like minded people, and its a nice place to be, well for me anyway.

We noticed.

Welcome back.

Hope you're doing okay now?

I'm new around here so I didn't know you were gone, but I'm still glad to hear when anyone struggles though a hard time and manages to hang on. Good on you.

Hey hey hey! Sad It's fine, thank you. Sweet burn though. Big Grin
I can't remember where this verse is from, I think it got removed from canon:

"I don't hang around with mostly men because I'm gay. It's because men are better than women. Better trained, better equipped...better. Just better! I'm not gay."

For context, this is the previous verse:

"Hi Jesus" -robvalue

Welcome back!

I was completely moony when I got divorced from my first wife. Can't begin to tell you how happy I am about that now. If you survive you might even look back and thank your lucky stars.

Don't think I met you before you left, but welcome back.

I hope you are doing much better.
