Musings, ideas, what are you thinking about?

[Petal]

Have you made some progress over the years, or has it always been constant like that?

Yes I have made great progress as I used to be 100pc housebound, a lot of progress i guess

And I think it will continue this way. You will make progress, and that's what matters.

What you are saying makes great sense, going over and over it for 20 years, the feeling is kind of natural, I woke up a few mornings ago and there was no anxiety, that is incredibly rare for me, i was like wtf is going on here, so yeah, i suppose we do just get used to it and fight it even when not actually trying to, naturally..

I would try to look at it more as acceptance than fighting it. Trying to fight it only makes it worse, whereas if you accept it, you learn to sit with it until it passes, which is likely to be much quicker than the alternative. I know that the only thing we really want when we feel that way is to make it stop, but instead of stopping it, embrace it. It seems weird, but it works.

Thanks, its been a dreadfully hard battle but i guess i did make progress. I should look at the positives more than focusing on the negatives but as you know when we feel low the negatives come to mind first.

Thank you Aurelia, I will try what you suggested, hopefully it can help me too. Reading others success stories always gives me hope.

Who’s that? I’m not familiar with 3rd gen kpop.

@JDot @BlueGreen
I’m watching 2nd gen MV, i thought i was the only one who thought of SNSD and F(x) with Red Velvet’s Zimzalabim — some people in the comments of F(x) Electric Shock mv and SNSD I Got A Boy mv are all saying they went to watch those mv after watching zimzalabim because it is reminiscent of 2nd gen.

To me Zimzalabim is by the far the catchiest song from Red Velvet so i hope people dont sleep on it the same way they did with SNSD Catch me if you can

I wonder how we can all have the same thoughts at the same time even thought we are all scattered or living all over the world.

A lot of similarities in education and experience, cultural differences are decreasing with international media, transport, exchange...

But what about how mayans and people of egypt built pyramids? Even though there was no way those people had communications that far from each other

LOL I understood your comment a bit differently. I am in no way an expert in History (pretty much the opposite) and I know people debate a lot about pyramids, so take what I say as if I were a 5-year-old particularly dumb kid :P But given the similarities, I believe there was some contact, we just haven't understood yet how it happened

 

[Auri]

I guess if they were able to build such amazing structures like pyramids, I am not excluding their ability to travel far either.

It irritates the crap out of me when people come back here just to gloat about how great they're doing. I mean, you want to let us know that you're okay? Fine. But when you write paragraphs upon paragraphs about how life couldn't possibly be better, well, good for fucking you. And what do we attribute the speedy recovery to? I'm sure we're all dying to know. Although, having said that, were you even that depressed in the first place then or just being dramatic by signing up to a suicide forum which you were never planning on actually using for that long?

A lot of us here are legitimately suicidal, depressed, and/or anxious every single fucking day of our lives, and it's been that way for many years. So when you come here and brag about how swell you're doing, it's almost like you're making a mockery out of us. Do you really think we want to read about your happily ever after when ours is nowhere in sight?
