    My ban is over.
    Thank you all from the bottom of my heart.
    Means a lot.
    I hope you're all doing fine?
    Awesome!  So good!

    I can no longer visit an empty well. 
    Thank you to the good souls.
    All that went out of their life and their day to help me..
    The strangest tribe. 
    Love and thanks rob
    It's a great place for that, Rob.  Are you just taking a break from here?  I've done that when it felt right, and jumped back in when it felt right.  Seems like a good thing to do now and then.

    My neighbor cut down a huge pine tree in his yard today.  I don't know why (we don't talk much and that's best).  It looked healthy to me.  But anyway, whatever the reason, watching a big tree be slaughtered fucks with my head and my soul in a bad way.  Seeing a big tree die just eats me up inside.  It's weakness I have, I know.  It's a soft spot that I wish were not there because of how it eats away at my guts and my head.  My wife has told me that being sensitive is one of things that she likes best about me but also acknowledges it's difficult.  That's for sure.  I wish I were more rough hewn.  Sensitivity can really be the shits sometimes.  :-(

    I don't post very often anymore. Ive lost the will to carry on . Ive reached out everywhere possible. But to no avail. Im at the bottom and i can't get up anymore. All the advice isn't hitting home. I do not believe or trust anything. They say you don't know when you lose your mind..... i know i am what does that say. Fuck knows. Dr says the same
     I saw 2 and they said the same. I don not believe them because what is happening in my mind or brain is crippling me and now im wrecking the only relationships i have. Not on purpose of course but this illness is the cruelist demise of a good human who has never hurt anyone and only cared too much about everyone and everything. There is no justice and no god. There are no prizes for good. That aside i wanted everyone who comes /came here that ive gained friends in my mind here and that was kind.

    I'm so sorry that you continue to suffer. Part of me wants to tell you that it will get better -- and part of me knows what it's like to be in that hole and wonder if anyone really believes that it will get better, because there's so little daylight where you are right now.

    I wish you could find better help for what's bothering you. I'm sorry that I have no advice to offer -- but maybe you're tired of unsolicited advice, anyway.

    Please try to remember that there is a whole community here rooting for you. And be kind to yourself.
    All those who seek to destroy the liberties of a democratic nation ought to know that war is the surest and shortest means to accomplish it.

    My anxiety has been under control until recently ... found out my homeowners policy not being renewed, claim frequency, apparently 1 claim is frequent...let me tell you, an insurance company not renewing a policy is not good ... having trouble finding insurance.  Oh yeah, in Canada insurance is heavily regulated, but they can fuck people over one claim...and people wonder why I have no use for government.  Our government regulates insurance to ensure insurance companies maximize profits...I wake up everyday thankful I do not work in the insurance industry, fucking vultures they are.

    Oh man, insurance companies can really SUCK sometimes.  Ours told us recently we need a new roof or they won't renew.  I can't prove it but I think the roof we have has at least a few more years left in it.  But they insist so rather than hassle with them or go with another company (why bother- they all suck) we're coughing up the big bucks for a roof.  At 66+ with no prospects for a new career start, those thousands of dollars are going to take a gouge.  Ouch!

    It turns out the insurance company screwed up and removed everything from our records...but still, it’s a pain in the ass. Get the roof, if you don’t and it leaks, then the insurance company will have an out.  I am thankful than I’m not an I surance adjuster...they have no souls.

    Thank you. 
    Its 4a.m all i can think is.
    "The day i tried to live" followed by "blow up the outside world" 
    I rode my bike in the rain yesterday. It was invigorating. 
    I will do it again today. 
    I can't keep the wolves from my door anymore though. 
    I went to a pj and soundgarden tribute show,my auntie got me a ticket and drove me there. The music was great. But i had moments where it was all quiet in my head as the people all moved around and i was visualising when i met chris cornell then the members of pj ive met and i suddenly thought im done here. I felt a peace that i could leave earth now ,in that moment. I never felt ready before. Or since. Chris 's bravery almost inspired me.
    I know that sounds odd.

    Hang in there buddy...

    do you have a cat or dog to comfort you...

    have you considered looking into a therapy dog?

    i have a dog, she’s not a therapy dog, but she is loyal, and when I’m stressed just petting her really helps...

    Thank you meltdown and shyner. 
     Im not a fan of dogs and cats i live in a flat we aren't allowed animals . But i do love birds. I watch a red kite that comes to visit . I imagine its a relative visiting me when im at my lowest it always appears. 
    I want to be a bird of prey. So graceful and smooth. Magestic.
    Ive decided i need to be sober. So im trying again. I hate it but i must

    Dizzy and confused can be symptoms of panic attacks.  Do you get panic attackks?  If not sure, maybe discus with doc, is vertigo causing your dizziness?

    Definitely get out into nature...studies show spirituality and being out enjoying nature really helps with mental health...
