Therapist reacts to Solway Firth by Slipknot

When I was younger try to get help and express how I felt and the therapist wouldn’t listen. You are an angry person. That’s why I’m here. After that never went back.

“I haven’t smiled in years” was me for most of my life. I’m just now learning how to. Everything I did or tried was based on acceptance of others. You can only do that for so long before you can’t keep the mask on any longer. I’m in the process of dropping mine, but it’s not an easy journey.

'but tehnicaly you are maybe right also)

I’d like to hear your reaction to orphan by slipknot, basically about being an outcast and Corey was left in a dumpster with his friends thinking he OD and was dead so they threw him in a dumpster

I haven’t smiled in years

Man i remember hearing this track for the first time and being blown away. Ive always loved Slipknot but this track in particular was so visceral to me.

Ive had an incredibly hard time with Agoraphobia, and not being believed that i have a problem because my anxiety isnt people based. Because its not social anxiety, people just dont believe it exists. I feel it every day, and its so frustrating.

This song is such a great release of that frustration. Kudos for such a great run-down of the song! Your perspective is always interesting to hear!

Seeing this performed live invoked so much emotion. Metal hits the soul, no matter who it is performing. Battling with severe ptsd for so many years, music saved my life. Like so many others. Have had therapists laugh in my face when I said that.

You want a real smile…I haven’t smiled in years!!!

Oerhört bra beskrivning. Corey Taylor och jag delar en sak. Vi är nästan lika gamla. Det skiljer bara 6 månader.

Min pappa kan inte ta in det jag råkat ut för. Så vi har idag inte speciellt bra kontakt längre.

yes I am alone…the positive lies make me sick. great song though

Not a fan of slipknot anymore. Just makes me feel like a teen.

When you said “is that from something” omg…. I was like come on be part of the boys will ya

I laughed at her reaction to the woman sucking toes.

this is awesome…

“You want the real smile, or the one I used to practice not to feel like a failure” is one of my favorite lyrics of all time. Hits so hard with putting on a mask for others around you.

He doesnt need you to understand because it wont change what is real

You are so cute :)…

This song (& nearly the entire “We Are Not Your Kind” album) is about Corey Taylor’s last marriage.

Probably my SECOND favourite Slipknot song. I LOVE THE GUITAR AND SHIT
