  • If you can question if you’re bad or good, then you’re likely good. A bad person wouldn’t even ask the question.

    With that said it sounds like you likely have Major Depressive Disorder along with feelings of some guilt over the partner you’ve lost. My suggestion as a former psychiatrist, is you speak to your general physician, request a referral to see a therapist asap.

    In the meantime a good doctor will suggest you start a medication like Prozac (but it can take 6 months to take effect and there’s alternatives like Celexa, Zoloft, Cymbalta). And all I can suggest try getting outside more and get some vitamin B, even if it means sitting in your backyard and reading a book for 5 minutes.

    Also, the next time these thoughts come up, try practicing controlling your breathing. These thoughts are common now, so you need to try reasoning with that part of yourself, assert yourself over your negative thoughts and calmly remind yourself; you are in control. You can still make changes and it’s never too late for a second or even third chance.















  • Trump is not some genius, he’s just an abusive asshole with a megaphone.

    As the son of a former abusive asshole myself, there’s truth in it. A large percentage of people will accept abuse for close to a decade, but usually they inevitably snap and try getting away from the abuse. It just requires constant small losses to realize, and you can’t let them rot alone. Otherwise they fall even deeper into a cult-like thinking. Maybe it should be seen a little akin addiction, they need a reminder, there’s a small way to get back to how things were before.






  • Referencing what the user you’re responding to is actually going on about. Seen him remark on this at least once before, a few days back and realized when I saw his user name.

    His Lemmy server blocks the IMGBB service, it was used in trolling 6 months back. So he’s insinuating all traffic from there, is at risk of being child porn or questionable.

    But you could be on something, perhaps he somehow avoided the brilliance that was, King of the Hill.
