My doctor knows I’m dying. My psychiatrist watched me relapse and did nothing to prevent it. So If the shrinks can’t even do their job by helping me endure life why do I even have to keep seeing them. My psychiatrist sucks.

How does the doctor know you're "dying"?

I wish I could give you a hug in person. Not a sexual one---just a friendship hug.

I'm sorry if I'm unfamiliar with your health history but what do you mean by dying? Are you ill? If you are, I'm so sorry to hear that. :cry: :heart:

I don’t really feel like talking about it. But thanks guys. Your support means a lot to me. I don’t really feel like leaving my apartment lately and when I do I don’t stay out long. I don’t feel like talking to people in person. Didn’t have the greatest helpers in my town.

That's OK, sweetie. This is the haven, it's entirely up to you what you want to say. I just hope things get better for you. *Hugs* :heart:

Argh!! I can’t believe how stupid I was though thinking all this time I needed help when really I needed to take the bull by it’s horns and get it done myself!! ! Of course the “help” in my town was a bit misleading in the fact they never let me realize that. There’s no money or power in self empowering people. Yikes. I want all this “ help” to f**k off.

Lol sorry guys I think maybe I used to smoke too much pot. Psychedelics should really be used more wisely and not just to have a good time. Smoked some really strong stuff and was unknowingly having mental problems at the time. It didn’t help because it was taken at the totally wrong time. And my psychiatrist did nothing to prevent it from getting worse, just watched me unravel. I asked them to give me therapy right away and they booked it 6 months in advance until I couldn’t take it any more and went back asking for more medication. Then they gave me therapy right away. Then my doctor said it’s too late. My body is screwed up pretty bad. Then it made me think what’s the point of getting help from the mental health system if they watch me relapse and do nothing.

I have learned, over the years, not to rely too much on other people. People are okay, usually---but they are not infallible.

"Taking the bull by the horns" usually works really well. Sometimes it works right away; other times, it takes a while for it to work. But it usually works eventually, in my experience.

It may seem that way, but I assure you there is! I’ve stopped there for gas and food many, many, times! It’s the last little town in the Fraser Valley before you hit one of a handful of different highways to head up into the Interior mountains.

Hopefully this made you smile - even just a little. :D

Nah you just made me jealous lol. I’ve always wanted to go out west more specifically BC. Haven’t got the money but there’s nice tourist traps on the east coast, so good enough. I love lookin at those mountains and dreaming tho. And guys from the west are courageous aren’t they. :wink:
