That sucks bigtime for you and the others left behind.

That's a common misconception, most people would tag a goth, black wearing, mopey, recluse as a likely candidate, but they are usually not the one except by accident.
It's the ones like you described who put on at least a semi-happy face and shocks the shit out of everyone.

Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose, so is death.

Sorry to hear about your friend my friend.

Suicide always seems such a selfish act.

We never know what other people are carrying, or how they carrying it.

Try to remember him for the friend he was, that's about all ya can do.

It works for me. Sometimes.

sorry foots


My stone is being bummed by beest not being here. Life is so hard emotionally without him. I'm going through the motions, I can do the things, trying to fake it til I make it. but it's all so empty. And life keeps throwing more and more shit at me like if I eventually have enough to deal with I won''t have anything left to mope with and I'll suddenly snap out of it and figure it out. Rather than suddenly snap.

I am getting more sleep since my job ended, but now I'm dreaming and those are scary and upsetting. At the end of my job, we had to take everything in the store -all the fixtures, fittings, electronics, stationery, everything out of our offices etc and put it on public display. Nothing super personal, so not a bit deal (although weird because I'd been in my office for 5 years). Last night I dreamed the team did that with all my personal possessions

Right. Adversity is the cure for depression.

Oh I know it isn't, it just feels like the universe is testing it as giving it a go....

No, I really think that. If you have no adversity, I think you're more susceptible to depression. You don't have time to do anything but react. Keeps you out of your past and future.

You're a bad ass. You'll get it done. Might take a minute, but you'll do it

Can’t get home. Storm Dennis has shoved a load of stones into the harbour of my island home and the ferry cannot get out of the harbour mouth.

These are some extreme measures just to keep Europe out.

Seriously though, that is a bummer.

Thanks. If this was England, it could indeed be anti-EU measures, but Scotland is, broadly speaking, pro-EU ....
