My 15 years old dog dies a couple of month ago. She was the love of My life and these couple of month i feel like i’m in autopilot. I do things because i have to, like work, exercice, but nothing feels joyfull. I know that time will make things better, but things have been hard.
Both of these vids that dropped on YouTube were legit amazing. The Ninja Turtle story…… oh man.

This shit is getting me to the point where when I was walking back home the thought crossed my mind that I’d be OK with being hit by a car. I have a psych appointment at 5 tomorrow
@heartsupport I’m seeing my family today and it’s always when my depression really flairs up. I’m the failure of the family, not that they’ll say anything ever, but I know. I’m not successful in my career, a recovering addict and don’t even earn a quarter of what my siblings does. I’ve been thinking about driving my car off a bridge on the way home, but know I won’t commit because even if I do, I’ll probably fuck that up too as I do with everything and only hurt someone else. Life is just getting me down, and I don’t know how much longer I can take it
I was hit with a very serious heart issue last fall before I turned 37 that has completely altered my entire life. For three months, I have been put on a disgusting amount of medication and have only left my house for medical appointments. My career, that I worked so hard for, will not be waiting for me as this continues to push into long-term disability insurance. The isolation and stress has torn apart my mental health, forcing me to concurrently be in an IOP program for support. I look emaciated and even my skin and hair texture is foreign. Meanwhile, I’ve refused to lean on anyone in my life for support because I feel like I would be a complete burden. It would also be unnecessarily traumatic if I don’t win the fight. I have not been honest with most about how sick I am.
I rebelled and went to Boca and Ft.Myers and Orlando all this past weekend, by myself, for Rise Against/Silverstein and @heartsupport fest because music is and will always be the one thing that will be constant. It was reckless and I haven’t recovered, but I will not regret it. I would rather my heart stop while I’m singing in Silverstein’s pit than the alternative.
Come Tuesday I will be alone, in a completely different city, receiving medical care for no less than 4 weeks. My poor dogs without me. Then back to IOP to heal the MDD and GAD. I am thankful I have good insurance and the opportunity to have these options though, but I’m so fucking tired of being sick.
I had just found myself and I truly hope there is something left when this all passes. Better believe I’ll spent the rest of the year at every concert across the country I can find.
For me it’s not biting down, but holding a shallow breath. I can’t wait to breathe again.
@heartsupport not making ends meet. Constantly feeling inadequate because of it.
