...so this is just about reality...right in the face!...exactly how it is!...maybe?
unless someone has a better example?

it's reasonably fair to admit....life is extremely difficult with mental illness!

apart from the exact absurdity of feeling entirely out of touch?
apart from the unbelievable way I believe I'm just too much!...

well??

to damn hell with that!!

I am so worn out tired beating myself up believing that all the others are right!

..and ludicrous possibly I would do the exact same thing confound the miserably incapacitated in exchange for the safe lie of the .....supremely capacitated!

I have seen too many people die believing that they are "less than"...!!

young people die not because they were set a bad example!!

young people die because they are told to give up....and not discreetly either....

they are told they aint good enough the finalities are so convincing!...

and ??

the reality lays just beyond the lies!...

well I guess I found my purpose...

after the death of another mate to all the ******** of this world....

no matter where I go?....I make a promise to the young people of this world........I won't (like) them....but I will understand them!

I think you're right, Dubblemonkey. A big part of the trouble youngsters have is in believing what somebody who really doesn't know the real truth about our being is saying: that they aren't worthy of much in life--when in truth they're worthy of everything.

Or it's a money-thing with those who want to keep vulnerable people on their
dependency.

When we escape parental lack of knowledge or the mis-directed efforts of those
who ought to know better, people (who deserve to be loved and cared for) are
led down a primrose path that can damage their psyche like nothing else can.

They get involved in things that make conditions worse. I've always believed
that changes in environment, relationships, and financial status would pull most of
us out of any real difficulty that we are exposed to. That and our spiritual life.

Well, you tell the truth; that's for sure.

it's a very important subject for the young people who have been introduced into such a personally challenging world...

I thinks it's up to us maybe?...

I don't know?....I just see alot of depression everywhere I go...

these poor kids got so much pressure....

....maybe I'm wrong...

maybe I am just an old man now...and thats ok....

but aint young people meant to have 'fun'...?

...and yet?...the standards are set so high..!

I used to dream as a kid...but the impending potential of failure did not infiltrate my every move!...

there was a space to drift...these days...there is no escape...

I feel very ashamed and sorry for these young people....especially with mental illness.

Well, I agree that we have a responsibility; some see it as something we're supposed to do for everyone who is young and vulnerable. That's impossible, of course, but we can help when the opportunity presents itself for one who needs compassion and help.

One at a time; that's all we're asked to care for in my view, if we can do that, and if we have the experience of meeting a young person who is open to different ideas and ways to live that are as harmless as we can make them.

You're really on top of things now, in my view. Very coherent, cogent, and aware of one of the biggest problems in our society.

(That, and politics, which I refuse to discuss ever.)
