if this twitteresque trending shit does not stop on my FB i am seriously tempted to kill my FB account. i do not care what movies most of you are watching at the very moment you watch them nore do i care if you if you watch some guy pop a god dammed zit.
I'm not on facebook very much so haven't noticed too much of that. I've only had fb since last year after the 2011 cruise - started an account mainly for keeping in touch with music friends....my fb friends are 100% people that I have a metal connection with (met them at festivals overseas, on the 70K cruises, are local metal friends, and so on). It's like my own little metal world apart from my non-metal friends and family). I don't think I'd ever delete my account, but I have found that it seems like it's the kind of thing one could easily get addicted to. I do pop on the news feed at random times (usually on my iPhone), and there are often fun and interesting things posted....but, for the most part, I've decided I just don't want to devote much time to that kinda thing. (plus, I already spend a lot (too much
) time here!
)

That doesn't sound good Capt!
Sounds kinda serious actually and hope you can find a way to chill. Don't know you well enough to know what would work for you, but I know that if I ever start to feel crappy or angry, I sit and relax (deep breaths and all that), and concentrate very hard on the things that are positive in my life and/or the things that make me very happy....and fairly soon, my mind switches over to the better state. After years of doing this, it almost always works for me....it's like a mind control game. This is gonna sound all spacey new-age-ish and all (and I'm big into
New Age* philosophy
) - but I think once you learn to control your thoughts in that way - it's really liberating and amazing. Hope things improve for you.
And re the
- I used to get high a lot in my later teens and 20s (and loved it) - but it was always a celebratory kind of thing - not to escape from something negative. Using drugs & alcohol in that way is never a good thing in my view.
