and while you're at it, this world really sucks too
yeah, it's no wonder we're all running around half mad on this stupid *ss planet
we probably have as much sense as those zombie people in those zombie movies which I suppose goes right along with the zombie meds that we take to tolerate it all
how is anyone supposed to function in this f*ck*ng world anyway...
this place was not meant for me
I don't know who it's meant for, but I can't take it anymore

yes philippa, thank you, it does suck
there are no f*ck*ng easy answers, especially not ones you'd find in a f*ck*ng pill
and isn't that lovely and neat
I should be pushing mud around like that holy grail peasant
"help! I am being repressed!"
god damn it!

what's up doc? got a bad case of the blues or what?

i do agree that the mental health system stinks like rotten pork (have you ever smelled rotten pork? it's pretty yucky!). and sometimes, the world in general just sucks. soetimes people suck. sometimes just getting out of bed sucks too.

but, please try to remember that these things that suck so bad make the wonderful things all the better. gosh, i never loved coffee so much until it was my only motivation to get out of bed! and though i've always had a fondness for klonopin (hardey har har!), i've never been more thankful for it until anxiety strikes with an iron fist.

these struggles make us who we are (crazy or not!). they give us strength, character, a sense of humor, and the ability to shout obcenities like it's no body's business!!

gosh, i'm sorry you're upset right now. but, life gets better. during those 'bad times' we just have to cuss, drink, smoke, cope and wait until it gets better. and i promise, it will!

take care sweetie. and scream f*ck from your window, if that makes you feel better! i'd do it with you, but the new neighbors might be upset :)

hang in there!

Yeah, the world does suck, frequently. But you are one of the nice things in it, sometimes at least. It's true.

Anyway you asked some good questions, which I would like to copy and paste but can't. I've never understood how people survive. The thing that made sense to me was to wipe myself out. Maybe I was so angry. It's so bloody stupid. I have spent a lifetime dealing with this when I could have been doing something I needed to do, but thems the breaks, I guess.

thanks kk,

sometimes I am just angry at the world you know?
and I am sick of being "nice"
I am tired of being objective and restrained and matter of fact
I'd like to fight with someone, not the kind of fight that would leave the other broken and bleeding, but more of the cathartic and respectfully honest kind. I am not very good at that though.
(sigh) I am just tired.... thanks kk :-)

this is a tough world to survive in....
I feel the need to reassess what is "important". I just find that I have lost my faith in so many things, and that although I have put so much energy into certain things it has been for nothing...other than to make me feel like I have been chasing illusions.
or maybe I am just tired...
thanks sigs :-)

Mental health system does indeed suck *ss.
Here is a post from awhile back, maybe you could add to it?

Actually, mostly I am feeling better, so that moment passed.
Hope yours passes some soon.
