Eh if the draino did its job I would’ve died already. It didn’t so everyday is like a gift. Even if I die 5 years from now that is more than I could’ve had.

Why doesn’t anyone tell me these things? The least they could have done was send me an e-mail telling me I’m dead. Do you mean I’ve been walking around in public for the last two years thinking I’m alive but I’ve actually been dead? How embarrassing!!!

Yes!! Love this
Just keep buggering on.
Here here to that @Hedgehog . I’m really jealous of u, i still have 22 long painful years till i’m as old as u r. But on the bright side, being 28 and according to the statistics, i’ll be going through my mid-life crisis soon.
I’m 25 and I have a long ways to go. I want to create manga before I die but who knows.
I’m 16 and it feels like this past year has taken a decade because it’s been just so action packed.
I’m 26 years old and I keep hoping I die in my 50s or younger. The thought that I’m already halfway through my life is a comfort to me. I hope it is true. I don’t want to get old. I’ve already told my family that if I get cancer I’m not going to get treatment for it. I’d rather die in my 40s of cancer than at 80 of dementia.

I have been extremely depressed in the past but I’m better now (thanks to my anti-depressant) and I would love to see 100+. I was an athlete in superb health before I became ill a year ago. I am still in really good health. Statistics factor in everything, including suicide to get the ‘average’. I think if you don’t smoke, keep your weight as reasonable as possible considering the anti-psychotics and you exercise, you have a good shot at old age. My Dad is 75 and he is nowhere near old. He is in great health. Still golfs all the time, works on projects, just painted a friends house and recently refinished my brothers basement. He functions like he is 50. Granted he isn’t mentally ill, but he is an example of health in older years. He’s as sharp as a tack. BTW: I’m 47 going on 29.
Hmm Australia has the highest taxes on cigarettes in the world. They know who’s suffering the most the mentally ill. Stop smoking pills conflict with my meds or with a history of psychosis and depression too much of a risk to everyone to try me on them. E-cigs are also illegal in my state. Trying to see if I can find some sources in that area locally.
I tried a pipe to good effect for quite awhile. I didn’t need cigarettes. Smoking a pipe does take a lot longer than smoking a cigarette, so it’s not the greatest for a busy lifestyle. But you don’t inhale (seriously don’t it hurts) and pipe tobacco is dirt cheap (at least here in the US)
If the new negative and cognitive symptom meds don’t come out soon I’m hoping for death sooner rather than later.
Tbh I think I will be quite tired by the time I reach 60. This stuff takes it out of you.
For me?.. im 41 and I have done pretty much everything that life has to offer ,aside from taking care of a kid.
Im looking forward to the next level.
Once my great grandmother was told that she had 6 weeks to live so she went and lived for six more years instead while giggling about those silly doctors
