Drunk and depressed

Empty thread, feel free to hijack as you want. Just needed to scream to anyone and everyone.

Good. I like a man who screams.

"Remember when you're sad and blue that the great oak tree was once a little nut like you!"

I don't think calling him a nutcase is going to cheer him up, EL...

there is no cure for depression I know of, that said a hug never hurt, so:

*HUGS*

Alcohol enhances emotions.

If you are happy: it makes you happier.

If you are feeling randy: it makes you randier but (if male) incapable of useful action.

If you are depressed: alcohol turns everything against you. Then comes the hangover to finish the task.

Eschew the demon drink! Feel not so bad and slightly less poor.

Alcohol is a depressant. It falsifies emotions, making you distant from what you really feel. I don't smoke anything and I don't do any pills or anything. Alcohol is all I have.

Plus I'm at home with a bottle of vodka. How else am I to spend the time tonight?

Bless you.

Plan NaNoWriMo.

Write out the depression.

Do some study.

Invite someone in to share the vodka.

Try to see how many constellations you can name through the fug (of brain, clouds, and pollution).

Think up stupid lists for drunk and depressed friends to do...

Earl -

Just try to drink in moderation. A little bit won't hurt and may even take the edge off your pain.

Talk to Lit friends - PM, instant messenger, real phone, whatever -

People are here and they want to help.

We've all been there, dearest. You are not alone.

No, it won't. It will just postpone it.

You're gold, Og

It always makes me guilty that I haven't read so many of the stories these admirable folks have written here on lit. Then I do the little gestalt therapy trick and I stop being guilty. It always works for me. But anyhow, reading the stories!

Having nothing to do would be an opportunity, and with vodka on board we might even write better than we would if the reader were sober.

That brings us to the story of the duck who goes into the bar.

shereads' lawyers have made me reluctant, though, to retell it.

Next time, perhaps. In the meantime, a whole bottle should actually solve the immediate problem by bringing on unconsciousness.

Which is good sometimes. We all take pain according to our capabilities. P.

True. Very true. I just think Denial is a much more healthy way to postpone pain than to drink. Also, it doesn't give you a hangover.

 

[carsonshepherd]

Ahh... liquor. Nothing like a depressant to chase the blues away! (quick, name that quote.)

We have a name for this in my family: D and Ds.

 

[English Lady]

Earl love, In all seriousness you've had some good advice here. talk it, type it or write it out. just get it out and you'll feel better.


(Ok why does everything you type on a porn board sound like a double entendre?)


Just know that people do care (Look at the replies you've got here) and there are people round willing to help.

This lot here have a telent for cheering a person up. I know they did it for me the other day and I'm very thankful for that

 

[Guest]

Just a few more XXX's and OOO's. Call anytime.

Love, Pear

 

[rgraham666]

Earl? The thing that does me a lot of good these days is to read the feedback on my stories.

With the exception of two silly and one bad (since deleted) they remind me that I can do something right.

Can't hurt for you to try that as well.

I would also suggest to switch to something more filling, like beer. Way too easy to cross the line with vodka.

This, too, shall pass.

 

[TheEarl]

This, too, shall pass.

Robert the Bruce if I'm not mistaken. Sound advice, but I'm in the place where good advice doesn't work.

For some reason I read "hijack" as "jerkoff" and thought, "Sure, don't mind if I do!"

I thought you were looking for someone to join you in, um, tactile pursuits, you see.

 

[Guest]

Hey Mack! Maybe if you and I jerked off together it'd brighten the lad's day (or evening). P.

Oooooo! It might at that! I'm game if you're game.

Just popping in to give Earl a BIG FAT

Ok, back to Perdita and McKenna...
