I make this joke all the time, is it a cry for help? Maybe... I am going to therapy atleast

Keep with it. I compare therapy to physical therapy. It’s pretty uncomfortable, sometimes really painful, it sucks doing the exercises at home, and you don’t always see the results right away.

But man does it make a difference over time.

this was really cool and important (for me) to read, thanks.

I’m still fence walking. But I am walking, now. And not sitting on a fence.
So I keep trying but I don’t know for how much longer. Feels like I’m just doing a bunch of complaining, and that doesn’t really feel good to me

Keep strong my friend. Also your username reminds me of this scene from Smiling Friends.

Be honest with yourself and your therapist. This is a crazy ride we're on - let's both ride it to the end, yeah?

I re-etched it in a ceiling at rehab. It’s okay, it can be at least 🤷‍♀️

The world went and got itself in a big damn hurry.

u/gilligan1050 20h ago

That’s ok though. Change is the only constant. Just gotta relax and watch the whole play unfold.

I saw a video where they said they made a point to never physically show him behind any bars until he is a “free” man and in that room scratching into the wood to really get across how isolated he felt on the outside. Great movie

Shawshank is my most frequently watched movie. I’ve watched it 2-3 times a year for 20 years now (which is way down from my younger years). But after my brother hanged himself 3 months ago, I can’t bring myself to watch out. I’ve had to change the channel a few times when it’s come on.

u/IllRelative1055 13h ago

I’m sorry for your loss. My ex ended his life this year and it has been difficult to process.

u/Noah_Pasta1312 18h ago

Gather up 2-300 of your closest friends and make them afraid instead.

u/Sparktank1 17h ago

I keep finding myself saying "the world and got in itself in a damn hurry".

Hearing the 6/7 meme for the first time: "Brooks was here"

u/crystalina1984 12h ago

Oh not Brooks though
