What keeps you from giving up

Well, I drive around for no reason what so ever, I smoke cigarettes, I also talk on the phone.

Not a lot really. It doesn’t take much for my mood to plummet and suicide is on the table. I get really low - especially at the weekends when I have no work to occupy me

Music is about the only thing that inspires me.

Giving up is not an option for me. I’ve been suicidal often, though. I still sometimes think of offing myself, but I keep plugging away.

It’s baseball cards for me. I frequently review my 5,000 card collection of 1991-1994 Donruss baseball cards.

That and a healthy lifestyle

I like movie memorabilia, but it’s not the cheapest of hobbies.

My collection is mainly statues of LOTR characters, but I also collect framed film cells, and cool Sci-Fi posters.

Recently I lost interest in watching films.

I used to have a couple shoeboxes full of baseball cards, but they were stolen in a burglary. The burglars didn’t see my binder full of my best cards, though.

I remember you got robbed a whole ago and someone went through your pantry and stole you’re food?

Hope your in a district with less crime now

Yeah there were 4 burglaries, in 2017-2019. I live out in the country now, low crime.

What was so shitty about the baseball cards being stolen is that I had them since I was a kid, started collecting them in the late 80s. I held onto my cards all those years, only to have them stolen by some piece of ghetto trash.

It’s kind of instinct not to give up for me. I get a feeling that things will get better and also I feel like a fighter; I like to think that I’ve been through the worst of it now, But in all honesty, I don’t know about all of this. Except for that I have a drive not to give up. If that will change, I don’t know.

Life has returned to a livable state for me, since the rough years. It’s not as great as before I was sick but it’s doable.

I think my ability to smoke cigarettes keeps me kind of alive. I don’t know how long it takes till I’m dead. Like anybody doesn’t know it. There’s not much more to get me out of bed.
