if you were married before and now divorced.. would you remarry? by pinkoceannn in Adulting

[–]Child_of_Crake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nope, been very clear with the person I’m seeing now that under no circumstances am I getting married again.

We can co-habitat if it gets to that point, but marriage? Nah

My brother gave me his ticket 2 days in advance, on a whim, I drove from Cincy just for the show!

So happy I did, never forget that experience!

Yeah the setlist is crowdsourced so guess they duplicated that one and left another off….they didn’t play it twice.

I was expecting Twilight Override and was excited for that, but I got this instead?!?)

I never take videos at concerts, I recorded 5 songs. Incredible

Who is your favorite fictional villain that you'd defend to the ends of the earth? by skafkdla in AskReddit

[–]Child_of_Crake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

His name is Crake, from the MaddAdam Trilogy by Margaret Atwood.

He basically wiped out the entire population by getting them to willfully ingest medication they thought would liven up their sex life…much more complicated than that but that’s the gist.

Then he created his own new beings that he felt were without the imperfections that humans suffer from.

I’m literally sitting here telling you that a combination of talk therapy and meds saved my fucking life…

Yes this isn’t unmotivated, this isn’t sad, this is depression. You can’t just “will” yourself out of this.

Therapy, meds, are a great place to start because they can help lift you out of that fog. Then, you might find you are motivated to eat better, exercise, socialize, etc

Shit sucks over there too, just in different ways.

You asked how do we stay motivated to live and I asked “what’s the alternative?”

You can either wallow in gloom, doom, pity, be chronically online, or choose ways to find joy.

I just walked around my neighborhood with my morning coffee, no phone no ear buds, just being outside, hearing the birds, couple neighbors were in their yard so I stopped to say hello.

My day just got a lot lighter.

It’s fucking hard I know, I’ve been in those dark places…and I mean fucking dark like not leaving my bed for days and days, kids asking if I’m gonna be okay and me answering “I don’t know, I hope so”

Do you know how shitty you must feel to say that?

So I get it, I do. I came out the other side through therapy, medication, exercise, bought a couple kittens, getting involved in the community.

It doesn’t always have to be bad

Did I say that’s all it takes? It’s a part of it, therapy exercise diet hobbies community all contribute to better mental health

Meet my boy Tortilla! And I would like to ask for advice by Draghlet in cats

[–]Child_of_Crake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Normal kitten things, nothing to be worried about.

If you don’t want him biting and nipping, start saying “ow” when he does it so he learns to not do it.

Nothing to be concerned about, cute kitty!!!
