I keep having awesome dreams where it's common to own a personal spacecraft that you can live on, and they're somehow cheaper and more reliable than cars or planes.Then I wake up, and realize that these things still don't exist. -

Ever since Iāve started trying to make my own music, Iāve started segmenting and analyzing things I like about the songs I listen to. Itās kind of a fun exercise!

Weekend with the girlfriend was wonderful. š„°šShe treats me so well, and there's nothing like cuddling up with somebody that loves you. ā¤ļø -

If you're struggling right now, please get help. There are people out there who love you, who are wondering about you, and would be devastated if you were gone. I can't pretend that prescription drugs or group therapy or healthy coping mechanisms will make all of your problems go away. I don't think that we should spend 100% of the time avoiding negative feelings or negative expression. But, I can say that support and treatment and awareness can help you deal with your problems better. -

Every day, I take more tiny steps towards healing. It has been a long walk back from seeking out help for my mental health problems. I'm going to lots of therapy and taking medicine and trying to do what I'm supposed to be doing.Reaching out is scary, especially when you don't know what's going to happen next. The stigma among enlisted troops is absolutely real, and many people avoid saying anything, out of fear for their careers, or out of fear for looking weak.I'm lucky to have the support of my family, of my friends, and of my shop leadership. Thank you to everyone that has been kind to me through some really hard times. -

Kinda torn between "haha, crypto is taking a huge shit right now" and "sweet Jesus, a lot of people lost a lot of money."Seeing Terra LUNA go from like $100 to $0.50 in a matter of days was absolutely wild. -

@pettter Yeah, perhaps so. It's just kind of wild to see a cognitive shift from "this speculative asset I've bought is worth x value on paper!" to "this is worthless, and perhaps always was". -

@kai I'm feeling that way about gamedev right now. If it's not something that you absolutely have to do, it's not unreasonable to take a break for a while?I'm not saying "you should only wait for the mood to strike you", but sometimes time away from a thing can make coming back to it all the more satisfying. -

Iāve successfully been discharged from the mental health clinic. I learned a lot of helpful stuff there, and my new prescription ought to help me moving forward.
Iām going to have to take outpatient therapy for a while to work through some āthinking errorsā in regards to the negative voice thatās always in my headā¦but, this feels like a new beginning.

The actual sessions themselves are uhhh, really fucking intense. These people have been through some shit, and even the military-exclusive sessions are that way. A lot of this stuff reaches into Deep Childhood Trauma territory, but also covers identifying maladaptive behaviors and triggers that have developed along the way. A lot of it is an open forum where people can talk about the day to day things that mess us up, the kind of things anybody could relate to.Overall, therapy is good. I'm going to need a lot more after I get out of here. -

The place basically functions like a big Day Care. The staff basically has to maintain an emotional energy that's really high all day long, which can't be easy. There's a schedule made up of entirely optional activities, so we're kept fairly busy if we want to be.You can also have a snack or take a nap or whatever. No judgement.But, we basically get scooted from one thing to the next, with periodic breaks for people to go outside, smoke cigarettes, and enjoy the sun.The food isn't great. It's cafeteria food. But, we had pizza today, and everybody got to have extra helpings, so it wasn't a bad day. -

One of the biggest surprises of being in the clinic is how nice the other inpatients are. The population here is a combination of military and civilian people dealing with self-harm, suicidal thoughts, or various forms of addiction.My first day here was weird and hard to make sense of. You have all these people from different walks of life, all kind of dishelved and nervous and anxious, not really sure what to think of each other. But, you open up and bare your soul in front of people, and they do the same to you. Some of these folks have been to prison. Some of these folks have been living on the street. Some of these people haven't seen their kids in years. Some of these people tried to kill themselves last week.We all look a little rough around the edges, but there's warmth and laughter and crying and comfort to be found. We've been singing and painting and watching movies and telling jokes and doing whatever we can to make the day a little better. It's a weird place, but we're all getting a little closer. -

Day 5 in the mental health clinic. I'm going to lots and lots of therapy and group sessions, and trying to stay upbeat. Doing all of this emotional stuff is exhausting, though. -

A guy said "putting the horse before the cart" while meaning the opposite, and I needed that.
