First week it made me feel like there was a very light electric current running through my body. Not unpleasant, just a bit odd. Tingly. And yawning uncontrollably for a few hours after taking them for a few weeks.

Again, not unpleasant. But I absolutely embraced them, I did not fight the effects. I was very, very glad to try medications.

Now, after like 4 or 5 years, I can clearly tell the difference between before and after - the difference is, instead of downward spiralling into a hideous pit that I couldn't climb out of, that spiralling downwards still starts, but it stops.

Instead of falling into the pit, I can just choose not to keep going down.

Things are still upsetting and I still take things worse than other people but I dont become out-of-control spiralling downwards forever until I can't function. I have gained the ability to shrug and go "that sucks but, whatever".

I thought tumblr was where ppl who think they are funny or clever go to add captions to things that are actually funny, and make them less funny through their stupid caption or commentary

Look, me too, but, the average punter on the street just looks at AI new features and goes OK sure give it to me. Tell them about the dodgy shit that goes with AI and you'll probably get a shrug at most

The voice inside that tells us it will be better with alcohol is just so full of fucking bullshit, hey.

Everything is better without drinking. I know it, experience tells me this without any doubt, if I look back at what I've done, all the worst shit, all the worst times, has been fuelled by alcohol.

I will not drink with you, today. Thanks for sharing your experiences.

Yeah like nothing stops me from eating. Nothing. Ever. Hideous gastro, vomiting, diarrhoea, mouth surgery, nothing has ever ever dampened my appetite.

And less porn (for now)

The way I survive my shitty internal thought processes is essentially this, but I think of it more as fatalism.

Things be as they be and usually there ain't shit fuck all I can do about it, so I accept that.

At least Negan had some redeeming qualities.
