for me - a combination of all these and more
i'm with you on the music thing ... it's always been a central part of my life, whether i'm playing it or listening to it. going out dancing/moshing to so very very heavy stuff really makes me feel alive and works out some of my inner stuff. slow, depressed music can be good when i'm low too ... kinda like musical icecream/duvet combination. lists and structure help when i'm either low or high ... ofcourse i have to have the motivation to use them ... but that's where my friends and family have helped before communicating with people helps no end ... chatting about random gumf, about feelings about green tomatoes ... whatever. it keeps me tethered to this thing we call the world

I spend most of my time either Cleaning or going to my local Library. It helps keep my mind occupied so I don't get as down so easily.

my friends help a lot... even the ones that don't know about my m/h issues.
but if i don't have them, then music helps me A LOT lol what i listen to vaires according to how i feel, but i can usually find something to make me feel better xxx the past is history, the future a mystery, now is a gift that is why it is called the present.

I think it's having my friends and family round me and being able to talk to them. except when they're all busy and unable to talk to me like today. then it's playing stupid games on my computer and crappy tv to distract me until bedtime!
Em Maybe i'm just scared to face the things i fear.
It's easier to walk away from everything |

i think to be honest all of those in no particular order and probably a few other things like eating nice things and sleeping lots!!!
Give me the song and I'll sing it like I mean it. Give me the words and I'll say them like I mean it

at the moment it's making the most of daylight... is anyone else finding the dark winteryness reeeally depressing and hard to cope with?

Hi Adam here. Finishing up my Access to social sciences ( about three weeks left) helps, as does kowing i will be at uni in september, having fought to get tot his stage, and knowing i write for various websites, including frontline books in leicester as an LGBT History month blogger, that really helps, knowing that i can get paid for something i enjoy. Its a whole new world for me, its fun, and it uses my time constructively. I am very proud of the below: Click here, and go to proffessional bloggers and click on Adam to see my blog Click here to view some of my other work currently in print So yeah, thats me, and what helps me get through my day. hope this is interesting, Adam Once a feirce Warrior ,now he was tamed, his muscles slack, his eyes blank, and his head was forever bowed.

On days when nothing else works sleeping it off is my only solution. When I wake sometimes I feel better sometimes not but sleep is good for you anyway or so my dad insists!

So far, way too much drugs, ALOT of vitamin B (beer) and vitamin C (smokes) and white knuckling this wheel.......if i can, i drive, like a maniac.......a hundred and forty down a 25 mph zone steering with one knee, and a beer in hand. Playing THE man himself in any of his bands, (pantera, DOWN, superjoint ritual, Phil Anselmo is the man who i model my life after....yeah, i know) Saw pantera play live once.
That was the day.......when i saw.......what you can become, if yer hard, and eternally F**ked up. Knowing this life can be forever down.......but i carry on anyway.....just to piss them off. If youv'e ever heard my band....Dead Season, iv'e spent hundreds of hours......ripping my chords up so i can sing like this, like Phil. Check out our cover of garth brook's Thunder Rolls....heh, and this is the third year battle of the bands in Maine......we are stronger than all. Music is like a drug, if youv'e ever screamed your head off to 10 thousand drunk people......hell, you know how it goes. Never limit your music, f**kin green day is another one to really get it on to..... Live at milton Keanes baby, i was there. Damn, i'm stuck in the usa..... a shithole. When the real love is in the UK man....... NOBODY throws it down harder than you guys.....(except me heh......) But i guess that's a small piece of where the will to walk on comes from. It's you people.....that really get me through, without you, i'm dead. You accepted me, when i'm majorly @#%$ up. That says more than any words can to me man. So......if you ever wonder if no matter how bad it gets......if this can be turned into something, it can.......you just gotta make your world, and live in the moment. I'm sick as hell.......the darkness is here again, and if i can get through today, to hell with tommorrow man. And if anyone needs a hard, but understanding old mod from the world of 20 years worth of SI.....you know where i'm at.....right beside you. |
