It's rigged to fuck with otherwise peaceful users. Cynicism ahoy!


Avast. I think what's up is that this program is used to dealing with methheads and I'm not a methhead. I don't have boundless, nervous energy all the damn time, and I don't need to be directly doing something all the fucking time. I truly enjoy being able to sit and relax, and not getting to sit and relax makes me *SURVEY SAYS!* want to get fucked up.
Then I tell my counselor that AA and NA meetings make me want to get high and she's like, "You're full of shit."
And I'm like, "Okay bitch. When I'm in jail because I got high because you're making me go to meetings, then we'll talk I guess."
Sitting around other drug addicts talking about what makes them want to get high does in fact make me want to get high. If you want me to be sober, I should be around normal people who aren't constantly talking about being sober/high.

Ten thirty?! D: Dude, unfair! That's like, when I start thinking about getting up.


I get off work at nine or ten, so basically if I want to hang out with a friend, it either has to be before noon (hint: that's when my friends wake up. At noon.) Or only for an hour, then I have to bolt home. Then the drug court is bitching at me to hang out with people more, and I'm like, "Right. So. I have no time for anything, but now you're telling me that if I don't make friends you approve of, you'll send me to jail. If I make friends you don't approve of, I go to jail. If I don't complete my obligations, but make friends you approve of, I go to jail. If I go to jail I get fired, and if I get fired, I go to jail.
WHAT THE EVERLOVING FUCK?"

What the fuck? Like, seriously?

And how do you go about getting "approved friends" anyway.


Basically, they can't be people who use (everyone I know uses something, mostly booze or prescriptions) they have to have beaten Nethack, and then only while the planets are aligned, and they have to be a merperson.

Man that sucks, I really hate when people's problems are being caused or exacerbated by the flaws in the system and in society. That's like my rage button, right there, though I don't rage often, mostly just sigh in resignation.

-sympathy snip-


Firstly, that sucks. :/ High school is a tough time. I can't really recommend much, as I've never had that drive to do something particular, so I don't really know what you're going through. I hope it gets better though, and you get better too. Just gotta keep trying as hard as you can.

Secondly, they're not all bad. My counselor cut down my classes and meetings drastically last meeting I had with her, because I mentioned how much stress and discomfort it's been putting me under. But still, my points stand, for the most part. They're not all bad, but that doesn't mean they're good either.
I believe it was Thomas Jefferson that said, "Government, even in its best form, is a necessary evil. In it's worst form, it is an intolerable evil."

Basically, they can't be people who use (everyone I know uses something, mostly booze or prescriptions) they have to have beaten Nethack, and then only while the planets are aligned, and they have to be a merperson.

Hehe. I like your edits. And yeah. The hypocriticality, the unrealistic demands, the enforced sleep/recreation deprivation, and then taking away my only source of stress relief has not been pleasant to deal with.
I've also got ahem. Shy bladder syndrome. I can't pee around people. And so the urine analysis that I have to do daily aren't a minor inconvience like they are to most other people. They're like a damn monumental obstacle that I have to fight past within an hour of waking up. I just don't have the energy for this.

Quote from: Chesterton
For, in order that men should resist injustice, something more is necessary than that they should think injustice unpleasant. They must think injustice absurd; above all, they must think it startling. They must retain the violence of a virgin astonishment. When the pessimist looks at any infamy, it is to him, after all, only a repetition of the infamy of existence. But the optimist sees injustice as something discordant and unexpected, and it stings him into action.

Meh. Go outside, stare at the moon for awhile, relax. I guarantee it will help.

... providing you're not somewhere like florida. Outside here generally just means "hominid bug buffet". Mumblemumble mosquitoes muttermutter fleas grumblegrumble ticks gnashing-of-teeth etc.

Then there's the humidity. And the heat. Bright side it's looking like it's vaguely starting to cool down for the year, which is... something. Relatively cool down, anyway. A little.

Just woke up to a phone call that my closest friend's wife died last night. She was only 29, and they'd only been married a couple of years. Still in shock.    :-[
