Just under 1 year and 9 months sober. Its pretty tough rn
just end it already
Not going to lie, it’s pretty rough, I’m currently between jobs too… a double whammy of unpleasant awareness.
I’ve never done any drugs or alcohol or anything in my life. I’m in a lot of pain and life is miserable but I have no desire to put poison into my body either.
Jesus?
I’m diagnosed and had a prescription of some form in 2007 but stopped part way in from what I thought were side effects and the process of getting back on it in my mid-20s after realizing I’m a dead weight without them is like pulling teeth.
Video games. There’s so many out there to play.
That’s the best way to not do anything real, if that’s what you want.
Are you trying to imply that being drugged up is considered “doing something?”
Hey now, I’d like to see where your Nintendoo Pac Man Donkey Kong skills translate to life skills. Now if you’ll excuse me, I’ll be over on that hill throwing rocks at trains.
/S
Ah yes, hobbies are fake and useless.
Does pot and alcohol count?
Self prescription
No. But for some, yes.
I self-medicate with caffeine and sugar. 👌
(It’s losing its effectiveness as i grow tolerant. Send halp)
Halp is on the way! He’s bringing Celsius
This. I don’t think anyone is actually rawdogging life.
Does estrogen count or am I rawdogging it?
Only if your trans
Secret ingredient is increasing caffeine from time to time.
I had to stop when my heart almost exploded.
now I’m on antianxiety meds until I decide it’s not worth it to be alive anymore.
… decline of man
More so just the decline of america (I hope)
The decline of America is certainly very visible, but if you look at a lot of trends, we’re heading to a bad place. Climate catastrophe is coming for us, and with that, we have the rise of unrest in areas that are becoming more food insecure and/or are being disastered out, creating climate refugees. We’ve got an increase in bellicosity from rich powers trying to stake out claims while they still have time, and the billionaires are all building expensive bunkers…
The USA is but one country of many.
Lol. Lmao, even.
If by some miracle one of the countless disasters we’ve teed ourselves up for don’t kill me, the stress of watching society repetitively and gleefully kick the can down the road definitely will.
Just stop caring.
No u
Medication? In this economy?
Does it count if I just smoke weed?
Hell yeah.
I’m on several prescriptions and two of them are from my psychiatrist. So for me it’s not just the weed. And my response to it can be pretty strain-specific.
But god damn does it help a lot.
Can’t afford a diagnosis for happy pills, can’t afford weed or alcohol. My last paycheck turned the power back on. I’m just happy out of spite.
If you can find an acid guy it’s just so much more bang for the buck with minimal health downsides and no physical addiction.
“Oh but your trips last so long”
Fucking and? Good. You get to get high and watch a whole season of nature documentaries.
The Lego Movie isn’t bad.
How do you find this guy? I’ve been wanting to try acid for a long time.
My guy is a guy I went to college with so… Idk, take an upper level chemistry class lol
palms some blotter paper and eats two bars of the most disgusting chocolate you can imagine
We have ways.
That show The Studio has a scene where a star eats some mushroom chocolate mistaking it for normal chocolate and I’m just wondering if Hollywood has better chocolates.
Is the secret money and attractiveness?
You can get pretty good, abd the best ive had was actually in LA. Rather; a train headed to (long story).
But the best mushroom chocolate I’ve had was ‘almost tastes like shitty chocolate’. Like i didnt gag while eating it. It was still obviously what it was.
You know, being neuro-stable(?) is becoming increasingly more difficult. I’m starting to more fully understand my neuro spicy brothers and sisters. The anxiety isn’t in your head. And I’m here for you.
being neuro-stable(?) is becoming increasingly more difficult
being neuro-stable is to have a clear plan of how you’re gonna live your life day-to-day for the next 50 years. that was possible in the (post-WW2) 20th century where people were just expected to have jobs and go to work day-to-day. There was no uncertainty in that scheme, so being mentally stable was significantly straightforward. Today, that scheme doesn’t work anymore as the job market is falling apart and people are uncertain how they’re gonna live their lifes.
Anxiety in my head: “Something extreme and urgent and unjustifiable is going to happen and nobody will respond proportionally to keep you safe”
The fucking news: “Something extreme and urgent and unjustifiable has happened for the 11th time this week, and 49% of the country is cheering for it”
The trick is learning you’re not important enough for things to happen to.
I mean, lot of the anxiety is in my head.
But not all of it, and that part just keeps growing! It’s going to outpace the internal anxiety soon!
