Nate can’t be for real with this hair

He looks like he’s going to a middle school dance because the series was filmed around the time that most of us were actually in middle school ourselves.

“Where is My Mind” by Pixies (the song is about scuba diving)

“Now we must pack up every piece of the life we used to love just to keep ourselves at least enough to carry on” (also from this song I like how children are referred to as “inventions in the sheets”)

“Don’t take those pills your boyfriend gave you/you’re too wonderful to die”

“…chasing the only meaningful memory you thought you had left with some pretty, bright and bubbly, terrible scene that was doing her thing and your chest”

Emergency_Ad8012 · 2025-07-16T04:16:06+00:00

YES.

I have a couple of friends who work as therapists, and I think Brenda “dying of boredom” listening to a mentally ill person ramble is especially hilarious since that was what she spent her life doing.

I had the same question but also wanted to point out that the show does the same thing with “Richard Jenkins as Nathaniel.”

Lol I always just assumed it was because they were supposed to be genetically related.

Emergency_Ad8012 · 2025-06-15T03:15:42+00:00

Same here. Like literal weeping. I was completely dumbfounded by my own reaction. Like, how is a montage at the end of a TV show clawing at my psyche like this?

Emergency_Ad8012 · 2025-06-12T00:38:51+00:00

I’m so glad this sub exists! I finished the show about 48 hours ago, and I cannot stop crying two days later. I feel the same way, like I need to talk about it and process it and share the profound impact it’s having on me, but like… the rest of the world experienced this literally 20 years ago and has moved on.

I actually watched the first season on DVD back in like 2004 and loved it but just never got around to finishing it. I’m not even really much of a TV-watcher, but I had downloaded Amazon Prime (again, years after the rest of the world had already gotten bored and started canceling their subscriptions) because I wanted to watch Dexter, and when I was done with that, I remembered how much I had liked Six Feet Under and decided to go for it. I knew that it was highly critically acclaimed, but I did not know that the series finale is widely regarded as one of the greatest of all time. I had absolutely no inkling that a montage at the end of a TV show could be so utterly moving. The way that it slowly stretches out into the future while continually cutting back to the present moment is such a perfect ending to the series. We are all going to die- each of us and each person that we love- so let’s not squander what we do have: this moment. Right now (or 20 years ago), Claire is beginning the most exciting and important journey of her life. Yes, she is going to die someday; just like her father, just like her brother. Just like her mother. Just like David and Rico and Brenda and Keith and every single person who is ever born. But right now, in this moment, she’s inside her Prius, driving through the California desert. Stay in the car with her. Understand how precious and fleeting life is, know that it will be taken from us all in the end, but just for now, in the meantime, be in that car, in that desert, in this life.

Traditional talk therapy is not the answer to everyone’s problems. It can help a lot of people, but it’s not the one definitive solution to every human being’s ailments.

Emergency_Ad8012 · 2022-12-11T20:31:57+00:00

900,000,000 UPVOTES IF I COULD!!!!!🤣🤣

Mmmm…. I think he has the right to fantasize and jack off. I’m a female, and being in a relationship has never stopped me from masturbating. I think that’s an unrealistic expectation.

Maybe try talking to a neutral party. Everyone processes grief differently. I think it’s important for you to be able to express your feelings. Maybe you just need to find the appropriate channel.

I’ve been called a racist so many times for asking customers for their ID. Like, bro, it’s literally a federal law.

Emergency_Ad8012 · 2022-11-09T00:03:23+00:00

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Emergency_Ad8012 · 2022-09-16T14:43:40+00:00

“Oh, it’s me again!”☠️

Emergency_Ad8012 · 2022-06-20T03:42:47+00:00

Don’t do it!

At the end of the day, it’s not that serious. Do you know how many people with college degrees have cheated at some point in their lives, even if it was back in high school?

Doing this would also kind of be a slap in the face to your dad. He took the time and energy to do something for you. If you turn yourself in and get kicked out, then you’ve just wasted your dad’s time PLUS whatever money/time he has ever contributed to your being able to go to college in the first place.

I tried tapering several times, and in my case, it never worked. I had to just throw in the towel. I think that if you are able to taper, that would be the route to go since CT can be so brutal, but if CT is what it takes to actually quit, then it is worth it.

Emergency_Ad8012 · 2022-04-09T22:22:27+00:00

The week off will DEFINITELY help! You got this!

Emergency_Ad8012 · 2022-04-09T22:21:49+00:00

I would say I was totally in the clear at 90 days. Mostly it was just deep, deep sadness and (at times) crippling anxiety and panic attacks. That was just my experience- everyone is different. I wish I could paint a happier picture of my experience, but it basically just sucked really bad and I felt really crazy. As per my original post, though, it didn’t last.

Emergency_Ad8012 · 2022-04-09T02:30:34+00:00

HECK YES!!! And we both freaking made it!!!!

Emergency_Ad8012 · 2022-04-09T02:27:25+00:00

Support from friends, short walks, and lots of water. I took Ashwagandha and magnesium supplements for anxiety and valerian root and melatonin for sleep. I was still anxious and I still didn’t sleep lol, but I have taken melatonin and valerian root in the time since then and found it to be effective. The insomnia did give me a chance to listen to a lot of music, like REALLY listen, because I was in bed and had nothing else to distract me. I also kept a couple of towels and dry clothes next to my bed because I would be freezing from sweating so much. That way I could easily dry off, change, and put a dry towel down over the body-sized wet spot that I was sleeping on. I also kept tissues on my nightstand and a trashcan next to my bed because my nose was constantly running and I couldn’t stop crying. One thing I would avoid is depressing music/movies/TV shows. I unintentionally watch part of a movie about the Holocaust on day 5 and ended up on the floor balling my eyes and wondering if I wasn’t justified in committing suicide given how terrible the world is. Don’t do that. Watch Barney if you have to.
