    “You say you love rain, but you use an umbrella to walk under it. You say you love sun, but you seek shelter when it is shining. You say you love wind, but when it comes you close your windows. So that’s why I’m scared when you say you love me.”

    For without pain, there can be no pleasure. Without sadness, there can be no happiness. Without misery there can be no beauty. And without these, life is endless, hopeless, doomed and damned.

    The Rastafari identity can serve as a radical challenge to oppression because it demands that reform begin with oneself.

    It isn’t always popping pills, downing whiskey, or slicing veins. Sometimes it’s crossing the street without looking; sometimes it isn’t wearing your seatbelt. Sometimes it’s as simple as staying up all night, because you don’t want tomorrow to come.

    Guys, if I’ve been passively suicidal for years and never seeked real help, but have recently experienced a drastic increase in depression (Possibly due to medication)… Should I seek help?

    • The way I understand it, therapists may stray away from working with you if you aren’t on antidepressants. The approach I would recommend is getting a family doctor or the likes to get you a prescription antidepressant and then looking into talk therapy. The combination is usually the best way to get out of those awful depressive states.

    • A quote to think about deeply. Sometimes I’ve thought that life would be easier if it went backwards; starting coming back from the dead, and ending it with your birth (which wouldn’t be a birth really, but anyway). Thanks for giving us something interesting to think about! I hope you’re having a great day <3

    I have absolutely no pleasure in the stimulants in which I sometimes so madly indulge. It has not been in the pursuit of pleasure that I have periled life and reputation and reason. It has been the desperate attempt to escape from torturing memories, from a sense of insupportable loneliness and a dread of some strange impending doom.

    • Thank you it never hurts to have someone to talk to about problems or even just about things that are going well that you want to share so I appreciate it

    • Suffering, pain, sadness, anxiety, frustration, emptiness… All of this (and more) can cause an extreme level of mental torture. It’s terribly hard to endure, it feels endless and worse every day. But all of these feelings won’t be there forever. They may appear every once and then, but they won’t stick to you 24/7. As you said, keep fighting…[Read more]

    It’s SAD season again. :( But this year is going to be different. I’m much more self aware and care much more about myself.
    I’ve got my lightbox on right now. This year, I’m treating myself like someone I actually like, and I’m going to actually use it *before* I’m feeling suicidal.
