Am I blending in as well as I'm thinking, or are people just being nice? :scratch: It seems I'm just tripping over my words too often and can't communicate a thought as efficiently as I'd like.

If the events of this past year alone hasn't taken at least 20 years off my lifespan, turned my hair hair completely white and rendered me incapable of eating solid food, nothing else will.

I wouldn't mind my hair turning white from all the stress. Could work pretty well with my style of fashion.

I honestly switched off and wasn't thinking much (happens all the time with me) then I saw this post, got me thinking, why aren't I thinking nothing?

Wanting to (like many others here on Wrong Planet) help a fellow member of WP who is in obvious need of emotional support. However, I am afraid I might post something that may come off as insults to him.

I'm doing an experiment with my thinking. I've spent a great deal of my life reflecting on my past. I've switched things around and I'm now thinking about the future. I feel much happier thinking about the future than I do reflecting on my past.

Simply hoping to make it through the week and to eventually hear back from the vocational employment vendor so, I can get back into the workplace

I have an appointment next week to have the lump between my neck and shoulder looked at, mostly just so I can stop thinking about it so much. Odds are it's something completely benign, but if not, is it actually worth treatment? I haven't gotten much joy out of life or really had much of a desire to keep living for over a decade, and odds are I won't be able to accomplish much of anything anytime soon, if ever. Is it worth making my family pay a lot more money and to endure the side effects of treatment just for more of the same?

Discrimination and equal rights are not obvious, simple or easy

Discrimination means "x" is a "y" for the purpose of "z"

For example, dog owners want dogs to have the right to go off leash. Dogs do not have equal rights as cats. (More rights)

People that are afraid of dogs, think dogs should have the same rights as spiders. (Fewer rights)

It is just a competition

There is no morally correct answer.


:lol: think outside the box :idea:

The current counselor can't do that.

The other 35 counselors can't either

Even though many of the counselors were much older and more educated than me. Even though I have zero job skills.

Maybe I could benefit from, :heart: a counselor that thinks like me

But there are so few

Today was the last day of counseling

The current counselor told me that, the insurance usually rejects the third year of counseling, with the same counselor.

But with a different counselor, she doesn't know

And she told me I was autistic, depressed and anxiety

Depression and anxiety "chronic"

And she thinks the insurance will grant one more year of counseling

But even if it does, it is 50 minutes of sitting around talking. Every other week for a year

Wouldn't it be great if you could just reset your brain to factory settings (while keeping the stuff needed to function in daily life, of course) and delete all the noise?
