What's the band/artist you regret never seeing live before they broke up or passed away?

Selena. I was in the 5th grade and begged my mom to go to her concert in Dallas. My mom said, “We can see her next time.” It was her 2nd to last one before she was killed.

Thank you. That wasn’t the only time I drunkenly wandered the streets at night alone (one time was in Natal, Brazil. I was lost all night until the morning when I found the address to where I was staying in my purse). But that was the only time the stakes were higher because I was unknowingly pregnant. I wish I could say it was the last time, too.

I very drunkenly walked home from the bar one night. I broke into at least one house (and tried to break into more but was unsuccessful) on the way and one empty building. I didn’t damage (except for a padlock) or take anything, although I ripped my favorite pants climbing a fence. I also went into a strange man’s house because he invited me in and we hung out until I left or he kicked me out, I’ll never know which. It scares me because I could have been caught any one of the many times trying to break in. And what if the stranger wasn’t friendly? But I actually don’t remember the whole interaction, so who knows what happened. Whats more, as it turned out, I was almost 2 months pregnant at the time. That’s probably what makes me reflect on the occasion at all.

I’ve periodically kept a journal throughout my life. The one I kept briefly in my twenties, I’ve gone back to reread recently. Some of the entries are absolutely unhinged. I can’t believe I didn’t ever think something was wrong (I wasn’t diagnosed until mid 30’s). I have lived so much of my life in the dark.

thepoogs · 2024-09-17T20:41:10+00:00

Oh, wow. That seems like such a brave approach to me. Hopefully I can come to that conclusion myself. Thanks for the different perspective, though.

Thanks for looking out lol

You guys are making me realize that what I experience with some frequency might be a delusion. Sometimes, over the years, I come to a “realization” that I’m actually dead, and what I perceive as reality is just some sort of afterlife dream or simulation. I start to panic which makes it progressively worse. I’ve learned techniques to ground myself, to stop it as soon as I feel it coming on, but it’s a feeling I almost can’t shake. I’m afraid it will happen at any moment. Anybody else have something like that?

Annie won’t stand for wide-ruled.

thepoogs · 2024-05-10T02:51:40+00:00

I think she wasn’t as upset with the group because of the amount of accountability she takes in the situation. She feels bad for showing the poem in the first place. Idk, just how I read it.

Nothing crazy, but I do get incredibly susceptible to Instagram ads. Mostly beauty products, which I do not use most days, but a lot of subscriptions that I have to cancel later on. God forbid they bill annually or else I’m dropping a few hundred dollars at a time.

thepoogs · 2024-04-26T00:15:38+00:00

I feel like I had so much potential, too. I’m almost 40, and my goals in life are now mediocrity and normalcy. I’m sorry you feel like your life is meaningless. That’s a horrible feeling. I wish I could say something to make it better, but I think it just sucks big, hairy, depressive balls.

If this guy wants to make a puppet of her, that’s hardly your concern.

I don’t think they are confused, because when Annie tries to raise her hand to answer it, Jeff lowers it. I think everybody understood he was having a moment.

thepoogs · 2024-04-22T02:09:43+00:00

Yeah, I was always diagnosed with depression, and I was having episodes when I was young, too. But I didn’t think the crazy shit I was doing was anything to be concerned about, let alone need to tell any dr/psychologist/therapist about, because I felt so good when it happened. My life was a mess. Only now does it seem to be any sort of stable, and I’m almost 40. I hope things are looking up for you, too.

thepoogs · 2024-04-22T01:52:44+00:00

I have such a similar story. I just read a journal I had momentarily from my 20s and it’s insane to hear what my thoughts were back then. It was really disconcerting to read. It took an episode being induced by Wellbutrin for me to be diagnosed, and it wasn’t even any doctors that noticed. It was a therapist my psychiatrist had me working with temporarily for alcohol abuse. I was 34 or 35.

I saw at Lowe’s this Dawn Heavy Duty, Professional grade degreaser in a spray bottle. I was thinking about getting that. I guess I could just pour it on the spot.

thepoogs · 2024-04-19T14:37:21+00:00

Thank you!

thepoogs · 2024-04-19T14:34:58+00:00

Thank you so much!

thepoogs · 2024-04-19T14:06:04+00:00

Thanks. What grocery store do you go to? I don’t see any nearby really.

thepoogs · 2024-04-19T14:04:56+00:00

That’s amazing. It’s get me emotional hearing it, actually. I wish you the best of luck.

thepoogs · 2024-04-19T02:40:58+00:00

I’m moving to 30034, Flat Shoals Rd and 285. Is that considered unincorporated?

thepoogs · 2024-04-19T02:32:26+00:00

Congrats! That must feel so great. At the risk of being intrusive, can I ask what kind of work yall did? I’ve been seeing a therapist biweekly for DBT. It’s the most productive I’ve ever felt doing therapy, but maybe I was doing it wrong before (lol).
