Thanks. I don't think it's my brain chemistry that was the problem in the first place, though. I met some emo kids when I was twelve and thought they were cool, and negative thought patterns became my way to fit in and spiraled downward from there. Fuck. If I could go back in time, I'd send one message: Fuck those guys. Besides, you hated all of their favorite bands anyway.

I do have family history of depression, so that may be a part, but I kinda doubt it.
 
Went to a pretty sick fucking local gig with a bud of mine on Friday. Saw four bands I'd never seen before, and Darkness Rites; DR was lacking a bass player for the gig, but still I headbanged like I've never headbanged before. One of the best shows of my life. Apparently DR was filming their whole gig too.

Even the friend I brought, who doesn't even like any metal, said she thought Darkness Rites' set was the bees knees.

Have you seen a cognitive behavioral therapist?
 
Yeah. I'm actually doing some CBT. I don't know why I didn't do it before. From what I heard in the day hospital, it's got a lot more guarantee in its payoff than anti-depressants. While mental treatment has come a long way, it still could use a little work. The first thing the psych hospital did to treat me was ask me a few questions and give me a bunch of medications, and if you didn't take the medications, it significantly cut your chances of getting out. It felt like 1984. You basically had to take the pills, pretend you were fine with doing it, and pretend everything was getting better despite the hospital not actually doing shit for your mental health outside of handing you medicine that they haven't checked thoroughly enough to see if you really need.
 
I got so baked today. I came up with a new idea to add to a story. I taught an old Korean dude about the Altaic language family, and I taught an old white dude about evolution. What have you guys done lately?

Now I'm about to play Super Mario 3d Land. I will be immersed in Mushroom Kingdom. My childhood returns. I am resurrected.
 
I usually let his unfunnies slide when he's trying to make a joke out of something relevant, but this time it's not, so, yeah. Cronopio, that wasn't funny. If you're going to be a useless poster like me, don't try so hard to be funny. I honestly laugh at some of the stuff you say, but it loses value when almost every post of yours is a joke.

Thanks, I'll try to keep that in mind. That said, do keep posting. :heh:
