  • I feel anxious about getting to the Napalm Death show tomorrow.

    Do yourself a favor and when you get there, say hi to some nice folks, men & women alike. It's a concert & you're all successful metalheads. How successful? Successful enough to see Napalm Death live.

    I did so. My longest conversation was with a lady, though.
    My friend told me he’s no longer looking for a relationship and that I shouldn’t either. He thinks most American women aren’t “worth it” and because neither one of us are “sexy”, we would need to be millionaires to finally change our luck around. But I just can’t do what he says.

    So l just went hoping to meet a good friend. So perhaps you can dial down your expectations and look for a friend first.

    I mean at 21 I already completely gave up.

    I "gave up" at 20. ;)
    Petey got x-rayed and it turns out he has hip dysplasia.

    He kept spitting out the gabapentin.

    He’s now on a vitamin supplement.

    Getting a cat to keep medicine down is really hard but maybe try to tickle his throat while holding his mouth closed so he'll swallow it. Works for dogs.

    I've found that with liquid medicine, it works better to put it in at a slant.
    That is, insert the squirter/dropper/syringe at the corner of the mouth, so
    the liquid goes across the tongue. Not point the squirter toward the back
    of the throat.
    It’s been hailing here. I hope that won’t make The Mohawk call off Napalm Death’s show this Sunday.
    I forgot about getting in contact with HOCTIL again. But considering how I couldn’t get any vocational rehab services, HOCTIL might not be able to help me either. This is just how my life goes. I am always denied hope.

    Did you ever get in touch with these people? HOCTIL....?

    I never did. I think missing their call to me made them dislike me.

    You could try again.

    Instead of making up a story to give yourself a *reason* to give up.
    I hate that I don’t have a girlfriend. I don’t care if anyone is tired of me saying it.

    You have so much practice beating yourself up, it's
    like you give yourself mental bruises.
    Today’s writing assignment was difficult.

    @tree I had to come up with at least half a page for a short story. Writing the dialogue was tough and sort of head ache inducing.
    I can’t wait another 5-10 years before I can even think of dating.

    Why bother bringing that up .

    If you're basing this speculation on the idea of working toward dating,
    there's no need to go "All or Nothing" over it.

    Going out and doing social things, associating with a variety of people,
    is a step toward dating. Being in public enjoying yourself.

    Whether or not you score a phone number or a date.

    Incremental is the idea.
    I heard back from my doctor but I can’t schedule an appointment yet.

    Remarkable.
    Hitting rock bottom is not the solution for me. Getting punished more will not help me.

    I don't think it really helps anyone. The only reason people think it does is because those that don't struggle themselves out of it at that point literally just die or disappear from communities, meaning all you ever hear about is those that survive.
