Just read it and tbh was genuinely confused and somewhat disgusted by some of the rhetoric and self indulgent bullshit lacking perspective from a few. I'm glad that with a break and progression you have been able to bring yourself back into focus and I'm glad your still around.

I mean i'd be lyin' if i said I cared about the relevance or convenience of whoever is on the thread, really haha. old thread opening 2.0 I opened it for myself mostly, with exception to anybody who may be feeling like i was long ago. But yeah same here with how some peoples "advice" and views are towards the topic, as I was quiet confused with some of the replies as well. But thanks haha, glad to still be here too.

i really like this thread. it has a full range of emotions
it made me wonder, how many of you have been locked in a cage (jail/prison, or a literal cage with no way to willingly escape it)? what about the older members that may have been drafted in vietnam and forced to serve against their will?
i feel a lot of the "happy-go-lucky" "perception is everything" comments come from a place of never being held or forced against one's will, for a duration of more than a few moments. the reality that one MAY NOT have full control over one's life or actions significantly skews current/future perception
Cosmos: i'm currently in a state similar to your first post. i have been in and out of this state all throughout my life. i once tried to suffocate myself around age 9, but failed as the weighted object fell off when i passed out. i'm fortunate enough to exist (and still struggle) without any sort of brain damage. i'm not at a point of actually trying to end my life, at this point, as i know contentment/happiness can be achieved, but i've given it a lot of thought in the last 13 months since losing my best friend and much of my freedoms/way of life.
for keeping on, but don't ever forget. it's your life; you choose to do with it what you will

You guys need to seriously get off the internet. Right now. And go outside. Just take a break.
You need to realize that life is only as enjoyable or depressing as you make it.
There will always be ups and downs in life. Always. That is a given. But just as you slide down into the valley of depression, know that there is a new day just over the horizon with new joys, new possibilities, and new surprises. Where there is life, there is hope.
Instead of sooking on an internet forum, moaning "poor me, life sucks. I just want to blow my brains out. Why was I born!? Wahh" Why don't you pick yourself up out of your shitty situation and do something about it? You can't expect life to just give you constant satisfaction. Go find new joys, new loves. Go visit somebody that you care about. Practice a hobby that you have. Self-improvement really does wonders for depression.
But DO NOT rely on drugs as your main source of joy. That is a slippery slope my friends.
Christ, this forum is just full of whiny little pessimists. Either that or juvenile hippies. It's kind of pathetic...
</endrant>
Why did you respond that to me? You are anyway emitting bad vibes... stop it, or you will start coming late for everything..
How are those bad vibes? That's pretty solid advice imo. You're just being a sensitive hippy. Locking your mind up on the internet bitching about your problems is not the way to improve yourself.
Separately I'd like to say; I'm really surprised at the amount of weak minded people on this forum. Psychedelics are one of the most powerful tools for personal development, but as can be seen on this forum if not used correctly it also leaves people mentally crippled.

Well it is some solid advice if i'm being honest, and there really is no point in complaining unless you really do plan on bettering yourself. At least that. But by all means, complaining isn't wrong, if a person wants to express their feelings then they have the right to do so. Same as how a person has the right to express how happy they are. There is no wrong emotion. "as can be seen on this forum" lol. There is no proof that any shit-brained person on this thread is miserable do to the misuse of a psychedelic drug. That's an awful assumption.

When I have the Blues, the thing I hate most is when people I talk to become patronizing and turn into my doctor etc and tell me 'what I should do'. I MUCH prefer others who are fked up and tell their fked up stories. I feel far more at ease with them than the smug hypcrite types who tell you to be 'more positive' and all that shte.
of course other may say what helped them and that can influence you, but not the attitude that whoever is so 'sorted' and feels they have the right to put you down

I totally agree. Most of the time, people don't get better from people who aren't understanding enough and think they have everything figured out. People who aren't feeling the same way and try their hardest to lighten you up can make it worse than F'd up people who sink down with you and help dig in and get to the roots of what's really going on. Everybody is different though, and for reason, some actually think that somebody who isn't feeling the same way and patronizing them is actually hepfull.

and the extreme of that is the doctor and shrink and psychologist who either push drugs on you or 'talking cures'--of course these 'experts' support the very oppressive set up that MAKES you 'hate this place'! they are like its gatekeepers

When we're miserable, we don't want to be around positive people because it triggers our self-loathing.
Like when we're angry. We love our anger so much we seek people to help fuel our anger.
We need to accept the fact we are attracted to suffering. Misery feeds our ego.
Look at all of the suffering we enjoy in our entertainment!

Yeah, this gets me pretty much everytime I'm exposed to the trailer of the latest Hollywood blockbuster.
