Depression. It's a silent killer.

Yesterday we had to put my son’s dog down. He’s been with us since he opened his eyes. The hole his passing leaves will never be filled again. His presence kept my son alive at his lowest moments. He was never “just a dog”.

Be safe out there.
Love you
I can assure you, they are never just dogs.
I have older, smaller dogs, and one I have had since he was 10 days.
I am truly sorry. 😶😢
 
I am not sure if my wife and I are suffering from depression or ptsd. We had a terrible experience a few years ago thanks to a family member bringing a truly evil person into the family. We managed to eject them both from our lives after involving the police but it was an awful time. I really didn't know there were people like this in the world.
I have always gone through life being nice and have always only encountered nice people in return.

Sadly, nice people like us get used and abused
 
I would like to chat about a big problem that not too many people discuss. Sorry to be a downer. But there are too many people out there who are dying because they are depressed. I suffer from depression (not sure why) but I wouldn't think of killing myself. I've always been told that is a permanent solution to a temporary problem. I think it would do a good service to discuss what has worked for you to overcome your depression or what has helped someone you know.

Things I've done to help relieve my periodic bouts of depression:

1. Telling more people to fuck off.
2. Telling more people to go fuck themselves.
3. Throat punching the occasional asshole and enjoying the happy sight of watching the piece of shit struggle to catch a breath.
4. Anonymously donating to people who suffer tragedies in their lives. It makes them have to assess how many people they know who might care about them. :heart:
5. Anonymously fucking with people who torment others. It is cathartic to do unto them as they do unto others.
6. Embracing solitude.
7. Accepting that sometimes when someone tells me to fuck off it's actually good advice even if they didn't intend it that way.
8. Investing time with my favorite therapist, Dr. Johnny Walker.

I hope you both were able to get counseling to help you deal with the trauma and anxiety ❤️
 
For me, therapy is the best medicine. Had a session yesterday that really helped.

Be safe out there.
Love you.
 
I’m going camping this weekend. I’ll be offline until Sunday. I hope you have as good a weekend as you can.

Be safe out there.
Love you.
 
Today is the anniversary of my brother’s passing. It’s kicking my ass more than it has is the past. I’ve been functionally depressed for some time. This day is sending me into that dark place that I’m struggling to stay out of.

I've learned that different death anniversaries hit harder.
Losing a sibling is exceptionally hard... My sister passed away June 18th, 2005.
This will be 20 years.
I miss her still....
I'm very sorry you lost your brother 😞
 
Well I’m back from the hills. It’s so easy to forget about all the crap while I’m gone. I wish I could just stay in the camp and just let it all go.

Be safe out there.
Love you.
 
My friend from MI just left to go back home. I’m going to miss him but not all the extra running around I have to do when he’s here.
I hope you’re having a smooth day.
Be safe out there.
Love you.
 
I’m struggling to find my place in my house. The family dynamic has changed and I feel like I’m unneeded.

Be safe out there
Love you
