-3. Back into depression and doubt again. :cry: Should I try? Should I give up? Does trying really accomplish anything? I am I on a road to nowhere? I'm just not sure...

:lol: I'd love to 'keep someone who likes to cook around for emergencies'. Any offers? :wink:


It does get boring cooking for oneself all the time. ;)

I read that chicken soup has an anti-inflammatory action. Which is why it makes you feel better. But I would think that the inflammation was there for a reason? Maybe recovery would slow down. Like I believe that inhibiting fever probably isn't a great idea. The body knows what it's doing.


If you have the will, when sick, to go for what your brain logically tells you is best, and this directly goes against what feels best, I commend you, sir. Your will is better than mine. When I'm sick and miserable, I'd pretty much sacrifice a year of my life for the chance of ending the misery.

But hyperbole (or honesty?) aside, your comment made me really wonder what is the better course of action. Having just spent entirely too long trying to find the answer, I have been able to surmise two things:
1. The internet does not yet have this information readily available for the layman (how rare!)
2. The science, to the degree I was able to understand it, suggests that you're probably right. All of the info I was able to find was on external injuries or lung inflammation, though. I found nothing on colds, the flu, or similar ailments.

To your comment that "the body knows what it's doing," though, I must emphatically disagree. I'm pretty convinced that my body has spent its entire life trying to kill me. :evil:

I'm also curious what you read, but I think I've derailed this thread enough. I ramble sometimes. >_< So, ah...2? Well, previously 2. Learning things ups it to about a 3.5. Thanks for that!

3. I can actually post a 3 again now. I have just been through utter hell and I know at least I have been true to myself throughout. The situation appears to have turned itself around, though I am still waiting for the other show to drop...

However I dont know if people are going to be mad at me for it... life is very hard sometimes.

-3.5. It's so hard getting true privacy. I need to sit here, with the lights off.. tv off, and just the computer in order for nobody not to hear me.

Oh, I hope you feel better soon. If you mean later on as in later in life, things can actually get better. I'm happier now than I was in my teens and twenties. It's hard to see when you're down, but it is possible. Hang in there.

I dont see it happening. Im sure im going to be a failure at whatever i do and on the odd chance that i do something ok all i can see are people that are always pissed off at something. I still have yet to meet an adult that doesnt wake up angry and stay that way until they go to sleep. And im talking about people who according to obama are millionaires. Its just not apealing enough to live when we all end up dead anyways. Ill use my dads own story to try to get me to stop being suicidal against itself.
He said life is like a maze and your a mouse looking for the cheese. You just keep going around to what you feel is right until you get there.
All im doing is jumping the walls to get there faster.

(((((((((MissConstrue))))))) I hope you are feeling better and that the music helps. Just remember we are here.

((((((((MXH)))))))))) I hope you are feeling better too. Perhaps tomorrow will be better....

Me, -2. I cant help but think sometimes that i fail at a lot of things. I failed to be objective regarding the lambs, and now I have lost the dog.

I have been searching for him for ages. Where is he? 8O :oops:

Update: The dog came back, he was with someone else. I probably better stop beating myself up, anyway.

(((((((((i_wanna_blue)))))))))))) I hope you feel better. I hope you can get some time out and some space, perhaps do something you want to do.
