*pokes* i know how you feel i think i got out of my little thing of depression not sure....
but maybe go for help..*shrugs* i don't know it might help you or something so that you have someone to rant and rave to and maybe that shrink person thing can like point out stuff you don't see or something....
don't know i've been thinking about getting my ass back in therapy..we shall see
I've lately been babbling about some very important exams I'm currently taking. The outcome will determine half of my "overall-rating" at the end of my med-studies next year. So a lot depends on my performance these days. I'm no genius, but I did ok so far. I think I'm gonna make it.
I must admit, I'm quite a fan of modern Canadian poetry. Susan Musgrave... she grew up and lives where I am. She escaped from the local psychiatric institution (one of the times she was put in it), she married a famous Canadian bankrobber while he was in prison... she's been writing poetry since she was a teenager and just recently (in her fifties) wrote her first novel. Susan's got a couple of things to say on depression, too...
*blush* thanks so much !! the last sg event i went to was in boston and then when i went to see miss dita von teese in boston, i saw scarlett and a couple members..it was fun
hang in there, man. it's easy to be overcome by those things far beyond our control... but the last thing I'd do is beat myself up over it.
I once saw this guy with a hooded sweatshirt. It was black, and in white print on the back it said:
"If this is what the world has made me, then let IT live with the consequences."
Be proud of the silly, stupid, or amazingly intellectual things that make you who you are. Never regret the past... its all a part of what makes you the incrediblely complex and wonderful person you are now.
institutionalism is a sucker. somehow i think it's possible without being stuck in some place like rehab or prison or whatever
not caring what people think of you is kindof a double edged sword. i got some real good advice from something i read about being true to yourself : be "impeccable" with your word, don't take things personally, don't make assumptions, and just do your best.
being what you think people want is no way to win, for real... especially not on your own terms
(someday i'll practice what i preach... hehehehe)
peace is right. don't we wish it would happen.
of course, life might not be exciting if all was always well.

of course the pixies rock! i wouldn't listen to them if they sucked. work!!! i love to work, love to keep myself busy doing productive things even if work meant cleaning my toilet.
Yeah I've pissed people off on here a few times but nothing bad has came from it. Yet anyway. Wow your journal sounds alot like me. Depressed, suicidal, and I have tried to kill myself.
Truthfully I'm still depressed. Most of the time! But the worst I ever was is when I found out that my new wife of 6 months was cheating on me. I lost her and my step-son that I had raised since his birth for 2 1/2 years. I OD on drugs (presription and illegal). I was in the hospital for alittle while and in therapy. The only reason I keep going on is I've seen what almost killing myself did to my friends. What if I would of gone through with it. So I just think about the people I would hurt. Plus go out and have fun as much as possible!
