I know you've reported that you've been euthymic recently, but I'm seeing a shift in you lately. What are you doing to keep safe and balanced? Sending love and support your way.
Rrut roooooh. Yeah. No sleep last night. All spiritually fired up. Guess I flipped a wee.bit hypo on myself. I never notice until it has happened. Sorry.

Thanks for telling me. More Trilafon tonight.

But I still believe this is any competent parent's duty. I do. To just pretend like God never existed for anyone because you worship Heidegger and the human brain is negligent and unfair to that child. What if the child is born with an undiagnosed and untreated congenital illness and blindness and might derive comfort in contemplating any higher power? Five year olds in mixed states do not feel better after reading Nietzsche.
