What, you think he's just stereotyping?

Consider the consequences of failing to help too many people, and taking on a harmful amount of guilt. It's a valid and fair warning.
You'll never self-actualize the subconscious canopy of stardust with that attitude.

You killed the thread by bringing Nazis into it.  ;D

(yes, I know, you didn't mean actual Nazis, just extreme feminists. Point still stands.)

My policy in life is that personal happiness is the most important thing.  And I don't let anyone influence this belief.  Now you aren't me.  You might value something more than your own happiness, and you may be willing to let others decide how you should feel.  But i think that if in order to be happy you need to kill yourself, I wont begrudge you that decision, and I wont think any less of you.  But I will miss you.

Thank you. I'm too weak to manage it, and I'm not sure that happiness fits into the plan. I see suicide as more a means to transition to
something pure, and outside the bounds of happy/sad. Actually, I strongly believe that suicide should only be entered into in a moment of
exhileration and joy, and to die under other circumstances will only spoil ones future.

Anyhow, I managed something fairly drastic. I e-mailed one of my profs, explaining my situation, and started the ball rolling. I'm
going to be heading back into therapy - not that it helps in the fundementals (I know this is misspelled damnit), but at least I'll have a
real human who is paid to listen, which I guess is important. Rather have someone with me who cares, but that ain't gonna happen anytime
soon.

esme, sorry about not noticing the PM (I don't check the e-mail account that I signed up with), but I was indeed tired.
Still haven't seen it actually. But hell, I don't mind blowing my shit out in the open.

EDIT: Err...for what it's worth, I don't see any PM options here. Anyone know how I can find them?

Go into a person's profile (click on their name) and hit "Send this member a personal message".

Check your messages up at the top by your av, where it says "Hey, calandale, you have (xxxx) messages, (xxxx) are new."

Why wouldn't therapy fix anything fundamental?

Ah, it was hiding under a little triangle. No wonder I didn't notice.

Anyhow, I am what I am. They're not going to change that. Only
I can. If I can't (or won't) do it on my own, their not going to
manage to convince me to.

Ah - makes more sense. And good luck finding one who would be willing to help you try, anyway. Assuming you meant suicide.

Though I'm a big believer in one's ability to change one's own personality. Have gotten into the habit of recreating myself every couple of years when I move into a new environment.
