I would obviously sell more going through an agent, but it is such a hassle. They are so officious, in my opinion. You would think they were LAPD homicide detectives or something, the way they treat potential authors. Meaning, they seem to feel that what they do is much more important than what anyone else in this nation does. So weird. So out of touch wiht reality. So, why even deal with that? I don't need them. If it's good, people will figure that out and it will sell.

As an American, just so extremely proud of all these former military generals and ex-presidents speaking their minds about erosion of Constitutional rights and setting the military against our citizens. So proud of them. Free speech is truly the gift that keeps on giving, century after century. Our founding fathers were absolute freaking GENIUSES!!!!!!!

Love and hugs to all.
Not an American but ggrrrreat post

Much love

I have gradually become more and more agitated, lately. Little stuff has also been driving adrenaline rushes. I find myself almost screaming, when I don't really want to. Hubby has been drawing my attention to this frequently throughout the day. I'm in a state of mind where anger expressions are replaced by compulsive humor, and then repeat. It's not a good sign for me. If it continues into tomorrow, I'm going to take some extra Seroquel prn in the morning and/or afternoon.

The rainy spring seems to have caused all plant life to thrive to an extreme. With that has come massive amounts of pollen. Our deck and deck furniture quickly gets coated by yellow powder. We literally have to hose the deck down and clean the furniture every other day. My skin has started to become blotchy for some unknown reason. Maybe the heat? It has started to get hot...and humid. I have a heck of time dealing with such weather. I find myself lounging in the AC a lot, even with fans blowing at my face.

p/ a behaviour I still don't think that is me. But it bugs the crap out of me when others do it repeatedly Ouch. I do not like petty sneaky snakes How the hell are we supposed to heal and grow when we are constantly walking on eggshells EVERYWHERE ... its like trying to sleep on a bed of nails. I wish I had a bucket load of that serokill to put me into a nice LONG hibernation. And this is NOT a su post.

I just saw an ad ''therapy - a place to explore your feelings without judgment''

That is what therapy SHOULD be... but isn't always

This crap is not what is on my mind the most

I cannot speak of what is on my mind the most Just very tired.

Grrrrrrr

Respect and love to ALL

If you feel like you cannot "speak" of what is on your mind, Could you write it out for yourself in a journal? Maybe you have done so?

Maybe g to bed earlier and try to get more hours of sleep?

I do not like the heat/humidity either.

I hope you feel better tomorrow.

I got wined!!! apparently it's a thing. Somebody gives you a bunch of art supplies and wine. My daughter gave me a bucket of art supplies and a can of spriser, ,a cute little bottle of wine and one of those miniature bottles of bourbon. Plus a huge pack of canvas and painting supplies. Now I'll have to look up diy painting for ideas!

It's not really that I ''can't'' speak about it. It's more my internal censors. It's not anything I ''should be ashamed of'' or anything like that...

I do sometimes journal a bit..

Hey there!

Yes, that was a huge trigger.
Please be careful about how much you get triggered in a day.
There's no prize for exposing yourself beyond what's good for you.
I have to remind myself of this.
Maybe you can do a soothing activity before you turn in tonight?
It might lessen the adrenaline rush from the triggering?

(((((( Fuzzy ))))))

May you feel surrounded by Love!

What a great idea!
I am glad to hear you are having fun!
Maybe you could paint one of your dreams?
I'll bet you will find lots of ideas!

Enjoy!!!

The world certainly seems to have gone crazy with unrest and pandemic. Things are quiet in my little world. I got my dog in for her heartworm test. Negative yay! I took a shower today. A few things are getting done. Tired of COVID-19. Feel mildly depressed as per usual for this time of year. Just want something good to happen.

I got 4h of sleep at nigth and I am feeling better. IDK why those violent thoughts come to me (I feel an enormous urge to SH because It looks like the funniest things to do and almost like a duty. However, I will not do it. I do not want to end up in the hospital!).

I am glad you are okay OliverB.

I have to tell you that your posts re: your "violent thoughts" are not funny at all.
These "violent funniest things to do" posts are frequent in the depression forum. You post these "violent" thoughts and you then won't help yourself by following through on suggestions for getting help. None of it is "funniest."

Hopefully, whenever you are ready, you'll get help.

Maybe you could:

Start a thread regarding your violent thoughts. This way, members upset/triggered by your chronically "violent" content could simply avoid your thread. Members not bothered by the content can participate in your thread.

Just a thought.

Take care, Oliver B.
