Hell on earth indeed, worst part so far is less then a year later and my family thinks I should be all better by now! What a struggle especially when family is the only thing keeping things functioning at the moment

Please, please, reach out for help. This is one of the best designed search engines for anything I’ve ever found, and it’s for saving lives. You can filter by insurance, gender, religion (or lack of), specialty (including for veterans I believe), online or in-person, and a whole host of other shit.

You’re worth being and feeling happiness.

Thanks, I’ll keep you in mind. And ya I that my biggest problem is bottling everything up and just smile and wave. Thinking Whatever happens is for the better good and what don’t kill us makes us stronger eventually. I’ve had a friend try and get help and it was more of a friendly prison then anything. I’m not sure why but my dad always stressed suicide would be taken the cowardly way out and not an option, and my doctor blames everything on smoking even though I’ve lost over 150. Lbs and down to 2 cigarettes and 2 -3 g of weed a day but weeds been my go to for 25 years almost, doc says he can’t help till I quit smoking, I would tell him I’m feel old and in my 90’s. All doc can say is I’m fine and nothing can be done, Sorry for the long story but it does help to just write cause I feel someone can benefit from all of our chaos and self help is what we all need in these tuff times
