Posting this because I can’t really talk to my family or whatever. I have one main friend but I don’t think she cares on a deeper level so it always just feels like I’m alone. Who do you guys turn to for help? It’s always been a struggle for me, it’s like no one is really there. It feels like I’m living the same day over and over again and I’m not contempt with my own thoughts and it’s hard for me to get over it. I’m not sure if I’m just depressed and I’m so good at hiding it or I’m just so numb to everything. I forget so much of my past and it’s so hard for me to sit with myself and figure out what the fuck is wrong with me. I just lost something so good in my life because I made a big mistake and that’s also something I won’t get over. I can’t win things back and it’s sad to accept reality of things. Sorry for this depressing as post but I don’t have anyone to really talk to

I will not Americanize myself for your benefit. I will not remain silent when I see something that affects another human negatively. I will stand up for them as others have stood up for me. I will keep my humanity thank you and even fight for it.
I worked as a paramedic for almost two decades. I saw the outcomes of your joking and people’s negative attitudes towards those with mental health issues. I held the dead and dying, I comforted the sick and weak. I did my best to help them and failed often. It drove me into the same place as all those I helped at work. I won’t encourage that from anyone. Ever.
I’m glad you’re offended. Perhaps you’ll think twice next time
Have a great evening.
I’m not offended. At all. I understand, this is a trigger point for you. You can’t look past your own experience and that’s unfortunate. You also confuse your experience with authority. In fact, being a self-important authoritarian is about the most American thing you could do right now. (I have no idea what you were trying to say there? That exclusively Americans can use humor on serious subjects?)
I’m going to do us both a favor and ensure we don’t have this conversation again. Have a good day. Congratulations on sobriety. That’s a huge accomplishment and I don’t have to like you to respect that.
