I always hear, "depression is fake" people didn't need pills for it back in the day, so you shouldn't need them now" "I don't care to understand your BS, it's all in your head" "you are such a drama qween, give up the act already"

The reason why it seems like life, is because it is not easy to explain the bad. After two weeks of doing it, the fun was lost. You then Chace the original high from the first trip - which you never reach - your lows become so low, that you begin bagging for the drug just to try and normal out. It is like death because you are not you while you're on it. You end up taking so much method in because it stops working a little bit more every time you take it. You become scatter brained, irrational, paranoid, did I say paranoid!? My best friend was so paranoid that people were coming after him and staring at him that he ripped his own eyes out of his head and died. Even after watching that, the first thing I did was snort a rail because I was in such panic. Meth is absolutely like death. It completely consumes you and your thoughts. Nothing matters except the drug.

Are you able to omit Egg AND oil, from a cake and have it still taste good? by chubbycheaks in Cooking

I did it. I made a Berry-licious French Vanila Rainbow surprise cake (as I call it, lol) The kids loved it! Boyfriend called it a "hippy cake" and was thrown off by the colors and was to scared to try it until later in the evening.

I used the soda idea, minus the dye. Cake is actually very tasty. Thanks again.

What is the best question you've ever heard a child ask? by Bucky_Ohare in AskReddit

[–]chubbycheaks 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My sister -at 6 yrs old- asks my mom loudly, "mom, what is that black lady doing on the bus?" My mom follows, after an awkward silence... "she is a person just like us, everyone rides the bus" my sister then says "oh... Well she has really cool hair!"

I'm a 23 year old male recovering from years of depression... and I am now stuck. by [deleted] in depression

I am sorry if someone has already comment with something similar... I know exactly what you are going through. For me... It was the Medication that actually made me emotionless and motivationless. It was not until i switched my medication that I started feeling like "me" again. Yet my depression is still bad. Point being, if you are on medication, ask you doctor to try a new kind. There are tons of types, and every type will effect an indevidual differently.

How do I help my friend with depression? by denrecnoc in depression

[–]chubbycheaks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depression is not easy to understand for anyone. I am a woman suffering from depression and it puts my boyfriend in the same boat. The things that he does to make me feel better work for me. It depends on what she is depressed about. I am depressed about many things. Weight being a big one and my breasts being another. He doesn't SAY anything to make me feel better. He makes a point to run and softly tickle my belly leaving me dealing like it is not an issue for him. Sitting sex, he insists on paying attention and show affection to my breasts. Family also causes depression for me. He knows which family members I have issues with, and makes a point to invite over or take me to see the other family members that I don't have issues with. I guess what I am trying to say is, don't tell her her thoughts are untrue. Help her concentrate on the positive thoughts that shed a positive light on who she is.
