    My pets. They deserve the best. They’re all so spoiled.

    I’ve started blogging about videogames. So I’m just enjoying writing about stuff and looking forward to my posts on Wednesdays. No one reads it but it’s nice to write my thoughts down about games that I play.

    I like reading books, having meals with my spouse, seeing friends, listening to music, dabbling with my hobbies, and petting our cat.

    Oh; and drugs

    Inertia, stopping everything and giving up would require slightly more emotional labor than the status quo.

      Do those really work though or do they take the edge off feeling absolute despair all the time?

        Everyone’s different and some medications work better for one person than another. I can’t speak for OP, nor can I suggest that your experience would be the same as mine, but finding an antidepressant that works was a game changer for me.

        It helps keep the “doom” thoughts from spinning in my head. That is, I can hear or read about something bad, but it won’t keep coming back to haunt me throughout the day. Ever lie down to sleep, but instead find your mind awake for hours with worries and anxieties? My antidepressant prevents that.

        An interesting side-effect is that it also keeps songs from getting stuck in my head. Again, YMMV, but note that it does take time (usually at least 2 weeks, maybe more) for the full effects to kick in.

    Because this is the only ride in town, might as well buy a ticket.

      You never bought a ticket, you were born on the train.
