Miss you all

I miss you all, so I decided to visit this forum today.
A few topics mention about positive thinking, yes, we truly need uplifting words in the current world.
I have nothing better to offer except to say that emotional and intellectual withdrawals work for me. In that way, no one can ever hurt my true feelings anymore.

Before the withdrawals, I often feel intense hostility towards strangers who I thought are disrespectful especially with their eye contact.

As a side note, my father and I are moving to another city from the capital city.
We could not feel neighbourhood love in our current community, so my father has decided to leave there.

I have many issues to complain but I just keep it to myself. Unemployment, poverty, disfellowshipping, mental illness- all are hard to bear without the financial support from my beloved father.

I hate it when people with mental illness use employment to compare their mental well-beings among themselves (elsewhere, not here) although I know people need to earn a living, and I am still looking for another job myself.

That’s a good point, I hadn’t thought of that before.

Thank you. It is common for people around us to ask “What do you do for a living”, but I have never expect it from mental health community (not here).

I remember when you posted once

the mental intrinsic capture

you worded it so perfectly, very rare insight.

I felt overwhelmed but I’m glad you did it.

There was one guy who called it Auto Pig,
go round and round in that trap.

His name was Alan Barker. Maybe you can find it.

Many not here believe him, and have the same.

I think you are referring to my emotional and intellectual withdrawals. I have never thought someone like you would remember what I posted before.

I do not encourage others to try it because I afraid the “mental intrinsic capture” would actually discourage new information learning capability.

But a big thank you for your concern, Daze.

I agree. sometimes, a man needs to just step back, withdraw, and give himself some time to recover and rest. Short-term and long-term isolation can be a somewhat helpful recovery method, and even a method of re-awakening, in some situations.

I defer from Allen Barker

and that supposed community.

there’s no one.

But your own self, brain, and impulse.

The schizophrenic brain is used against them
to create a reality that doesn’t exist

of actual people, places, or weapons.

If there is a map of the human brain,
it’s a driver lost and needing direction.

Allen has every classic symptom of schizophrenia.
I til know it til I came on this site.

I missed you too @Plumber. I’m glad you’re back and I’m sorry you have to move but I understand what it’s like to not feel community spirit and want to leave that place.

I’m also sorry you felt uncomfortable on another mental health board.
