Then dust yourself off and try again

Yeah, the "mood altering drugs" do change the brain for good so its better to NOT start them in the first place so I do think you both are fortunate and I'm trying to come off of a lot and hopefully one day be free from the prison of medication.

EDIT: I meant NOT - typo city today.

Sometimes I wonder if reality would be more bearable if I was intoxicated at all times rather than experiencing raw brutal as-is version.

Today, a school shooting happened in Graz. It already got an entry on Wikipedia! I wonder if the shooter was genitally mutilated. If so, I completely get it. Someone had to pay for that crime. If not, well, who says supposed victims weren't scum anyway? Never presume innocence in other people. Don't be fooled by fake smiles and other facade.

I wonder if the shooter was genitally mutilated.

Knowing/reading your other online posts, are you seriously suggesting that the school shooting boils down to Biblical "Jew versus Gentile" ???

I don't know, I'm 'cut' and I guess I just know nothing else and I rarely think about it.

EDIT: Ok I just read the Wikipedia and I guess he said (the shooter) was a victim of bullying a that school that he never graduated from. I was bullied all through school for being autistic and gay and effeminate and I never shot up a place, but this shit does stick with you and till this day I remember all the bullies names and I hope they suffered in life for tearing down my self-esteem. That being said, that experience made me more empathetic to teen bullying and who knows what turns a victim into a killer. Ok, I won't lie I would've loved to beat the shit out of them till this day in public but that is about it; but I'd love to spit on their graves.

Sorry needed to fix mistakes because that made me a bit emotional.

Well, at the risk of alienating myself from new friends, I shall only say this once.
I too was bullied as a kid. THANKFULLY !!!
Yes, you heard that correctly !!!

There comes a point in life where all YOU do to YOURSELF is hold yourself back if all you EVER do is look in the rear view mirror and claim victimhood.

As an ADULT, I *LOVE* that I was bullied as a kid !!!
One of the *greatest* lessons of life I've ever had to live through !!!
D@mn straight I mean every word of it !!!

Where the H#LL would I be now if I lived in a PLASTIC BUBBLE growing up with ZERO TOLERANCE POLICIES ???
Don't answer that! I'll answer it for you - I'd still be a CHILD not able to be an ADULT, that's where I would be.

That's my two cents. So the h#ll what if I was bullied as a CHILD. That says NOTHING about my ADULTHOOD.
I am no victim and I will never play that card!

...Well, at the risk of alienating myself from new friends...

Well ... you won't alienate me; I appreciate an honest opinion and you had a lot of good points - Being stuck in the past sucks and I wish I didn't have PTSD.
