I was really depressed last night. Some night I dwell on how I'll never make it, how I've tried before and failed which gets my depression going. It didn't help that I was thinking about my dad and kid brother, wishing they were still here.

It sounds trite, but worrying over things not in your control is a good way to bring these moods on ... ask me how I know.

Trite or no, it's excellent advice. I learned this the very hard way.

I'm still learning it. Still.

Definitely. Sometimes just saying "do something to take your mind off it" really is the best advice.

I lost my Dad last year too, to cancer. Grief really is a learning process, especially when it's the first time you lose someone really close. I've let myself get borderline-suicidal over it (well combined with other, perhaps lesser worries) a few times, but it's learning to tune out the negativity.

At the end of the day, you have to make good stuff happen yourself, can't sit around waiting for it to come to you.

"Ironically like the nativist far-Right, which despises multiculturalism, but benefits from its ideas of difference to scapegoat the other and to promote its own white identity politics; these postmodernists, leftists, feminists and liberals also use multiculturalism, to side with the oppressor, by demanding respect and tolerance for oppression characterised as 'difference', no matter how intolerable." - Maryam Namazie

As predicted, my lip was fine after the piercing. Then it swelled up out of nowhere. Reading about it online, that is normal. It should only be swollen for a few days.

No, LOL.

I just prefer to use a cat picture to convey how I am feeling since in the title the word "meow" is present.
