I know a guy who's friend hung himself and they caught him before he died but unfortunately he had gone too long with out oxygen in his brain and suffered irreversible brain damage that left him paralyzed so they ended up pulling the plug anyways.

Now he's fun little anecdote I get to share.

Anyways, I guess people just assume you're dead when your heart stops but that's not really true, is it?

Art Is Dead. Buy My ****.

We might want to move to a different thread if we’re going to get into it but you’re right that’s not really true and accurately pinpointing the moment of death and even defining it has admittedly become much more difficult. It’s a huge subject and a fun one to talk about. The differences between alive and dead and living and non-living and all that. But no one comes back from the dead. Anything more on it and let’s go to bitch box or your day or one of the conversational threads.

Do you know how embarrassing it would be to be the only one who went through with it and now Frownland and OH are cracking jokes about you dying alone anyway?

Saw the doctor today, I let her know a little more than I wanted but I hadnt ate yet and it was 215pmish. I asked for the benzo type pills and she was all about it but remembered I smoke marijuana and she explained she cant for that reason So she gave me gabapentin, anyone got experience with it? I took right away and with not eating, my anxiety and hangry level was peaking The reason is to take before my CNC class in hope of helping. Plus social events and basically leaving the house at any time.


I want to be positive and think its going to help, Whoop whoop!

I'm sorry, what are you on medication for?

When my doc increased my Zoloft from 50 to 100mg a day I lost a lot of weight. Back down to 50 and got my appetite back..

You sure you need to go down the medication road, Mindy?

Anyway, I’m actually glad you didn’t get the benzos although i can’t imagine wtf weed has to do with it.

Yeah, if this can help me stay positive in any way and be more mindful in real life than Im willing to take. I might actually take two, one at 3pm when I eat and then one at 6,7,8pm when I eat again. She said I could take up to 300mg and to test it out. I think she honestly couldnt give me a benzo or she would. Or maybe shes just trying something first before she gives out a controlled substance.

Just be careful because the medical profession is totally broken and can’t be trusted to treat our mental health problems.
