Just another loser from the internet rootin' for ya Buzz!
Lets remember that what works for one doesn't work for all. As such, advice is limiting. My pea brain sees a lot of hope and positivity from the words you've types here Buzz. I'm convinced the world is a better place with you in it.

The idea that 'patients' are driving the "medical system" is no-sale here, Th -
I avoid commenting to most of this junk, but not today -
the "medical system" is broken. and
it is Not broken because "patients" want to cure everything with a pill.
' patient care' is a process, it is not an appointment -
I am glad you are in-remission -
I appreciate the adventures you are showing your son.
Thank you.

Sunshine right now seems to be lifting my mood. I didn’t come inside yesterday until it was dark dark out. I kept busy which also helped.
I am emotionally and kinda physically exhausted. Just woke up from 11.5 hours of sleep. Clearly needed.
Im reading all of your words. The outpouring of care is inspiring. I’m indebted to you all. You are helping me to help myself.
Trying to keep the momentum going….thank you
It’s sunny again and I have a day off. Taking my dogs out to play and get more vitamin D.

Hell Yeah...speaking of breathing. You may want to put a study on the vagus nerve, box breathing, yogi breathing, diaphragmatic breathing (basically the same thing).
For some people (AKA me) learning the physical tells of stress and anxiety is really helpful and can help overt crisis. Its about tools and coping. More or less parts of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
Psychological problems are based, in part, on faulty or unhelpful ways of thinking.
Psychological problems are based, in part, on learned patterns of unhelpful behavior.
People suffering from psychological problems can learn better ways of coping with them, thereby relieving their symptoms and becoming more effective in their lives.

About to turn 50 and am too tired to continue
I got your point otzi. I know there’s no getting through to a self identified anecdotal expert like Core Shot Bsc Esq
But Trackhead as a frontline health care worker should know better - that shit triggers me.
If people want to cunt up this thread with personal stories of how SSRIs didn’t work them or how bad big pharma is they should pause for a second and ask themselves “is this a helpful comment for this particular thread? What do I think I’m offering here?” and if they’re so inclined to go off then start another thread

There's a lot to be said for a change of scenery. I could use that myself.

Good on ya buddy, keep it up.
along those lines, someone earlier mentioned xc skiing, and that can be a really good option that pushes totally different buttons. None of the thrill/wind in your (lack of ) hair/gravity fed pursuit, but great exercise, peaceful, closer to nature, and yet it still pushes the sliding on snow button that we all like so much. At least for me."fuck off you asshat gaper shit for brains fucktard wanker." - Jesus Christ

If you need a snowboard Buzz, I also have a Libtech skate banana with bindings that you can have. Don’t have boots your size though. Someone up thread offered to donate some sth2s to go with the salmon stances I have. Just send me a PM and let me know what you’d like to do.

We are trying to pull back from the brink and put a smile on his face, don't ask him to XC ski when he's feeling down, sheesh.
Thinking of you Buzz, and despite some really bad advice in this thread everyone clearly means well and cares and that's cool to see.
Lotsa good advice mixed in here too, but not applicable to everyone unfortunately.

On top of constantly feeling like I have been, the embarrassment and shame you carry to ask for help is also crippling. It’s like the perfect storm converging.
That’s why it’s also easier to post right now when most of you are asleep.
I also am aware of the importance to continue to check in here. While I want to escape what I call hole up, I’m doing my damndest to fight that behavior too.
I’ve got people here and other places that care about me. I just need the brain spiders to let me care about me too.
Right now I’m just going to continue with saying thank you.

I love the analogy. My spiders talk to me in the second person. “You should, you can’t, you’re not worthy.” It has been a big part of my recovery to work on changing my internal dialogue to the first person. Own my thoughts and my action. Simple things like “you should floss” to “I will floss.”
We are taught and raised in second person and mostly it is benign, but it can also be abusive. The “you” statements from my alcoholic father and stepfather could be downright mean, manipulative, and demeaning.
One thing I learned in Al Anon, which is essentially group therapy, is to share from the first person as a part of taking personal inventory.
Often my best intentioned advice gets delivered in the second person. I am guilty of this even in this thread. That however can feel and be received, rightly so, as judgement.
I think there is a wealth of knowledge and experience in this thread. I appreciate what I have read. I appreciate Buzz for bravely starting and maintaining this thread.
Lastly, I learned of Al Anon by reading Warren Miller’s autobiography. He was an active member working on his childhood trauma caused by his parents.
