    I hate that it gets dark outside so early this time of year.

    One way I have managed to deal with this is to realize that
    as the days are progressively shorter with the dark coming
    earlier & earlier, once we get to the 3rd week of December
    with sunset right about 5PM-----after that, the length of
    daylight starts to increase.

    There's one positive aspect to January, for me.
    By the end of that month, there's more daylight.

    On June 21st I always draw a moon and a snowman on the calendar because it's the day where the days start getting shorter lol. It's so unreasonable that the days are getting shorter when summer STARTS.

    After being told by my entire family that my memory can never be trusted and that I have severe cognitive disabilities - I actually believed those lies for many years. I have been bamboozled and I was gullible enough to fall for it.

    I feel guilty because I personally allowed my family to keep on walking all over me and my boundaries for as long as I allowed them to. I was their easy victim, and I can only blame myself for that.

    But as innocent children, we don't know. We assume they will protect us and nutured us to be the best of ourselves. When you throw a mommy dearest into the storyline, all bets are off. All you can do is to start living your best life, and forget their lies.

    At least you got to this realization. Do you know there are adults who don't make it as far as you. They believe the hype spoon fed to them. I think you are remarkable.

    I heard many lies from my mother in the last weekend that were so blatant I did not bother to say anything about them. I wonder how she can sleep at night, then I remember she has to have her daily wine.

    That might be part of the problem. In my experience, the people who never want to grow up (emotionally) are the same ones who won't give sobriety a chance. You're much stronger than she is.

    You were gaslighted with lies. That's not truly who u are. You are a healthy guy, who is responsible, caring, intelligent , and deserves to be respected and treated with dignity. Screw your mom and her flying monkeys that fed you lies.

    I feel like screaming a wall of profanity at my entire blood family, but why would I want to do something that they would turn around and use as proof that I cannot be taken seriously?

    Why do families gang up together? Creepy.

    I hate the holidays and the family gatherings that accompany them. I wish I had a good enough excuse to stay in my house with my Xbox away from that.

    Safeway/Albertsons sells uncooked turkey breasts and heat-and-eat ready made stuffing. That's my Thanksgiving plan.

    Trader Joe's came out with a vegan meat in the shape of a small turkey. It was so adorable. Too cute to cut up. My guest coming eats meat, but picked my bean burger over ground meat. He tried both, and the bean burger was a huge hit. I love cornbread stuffing with cranberry. My mom always made it with sweet Italian sausage.

    Maybe you will like holidays if you spend only with friends, or just a quiet holiday with you, and gaming, some good food, R&R.

    I hate it when people pretty much tell me “hurt people hurt people” in order to justify the behavior of those who violate my boundaries. That’s crap.

    I do think the saying is true, but it still doesn't make it ok for those people to disrespect your boundaries.

    I feel like buying a cigar on the way home from work today, so I guess I will be doing just that.

    I feel like going out and seeing some live music right now. Nobody is playing live music at 2am near where I am now.

    I just found out that a German beer hall just opened conveniently on the way home from my office, perfect for a Jager schnitzel and a stein full of beer. I wish I did not know about that.

    Do you think they have non-alcoholic choices? Maybe check online menu. I have tried Heineken non-alcoholic beer. It's great.

    I just ran out of CBD gummies that were helping with my back pain. Time to buy more. They are expensive.

    CBD products are often so expensive! :-( I'm glad you have found something that helps though! :-) I hope you can get some more. CBD seemed to help with my pains a bit for a while but it seemed to stop working :-(

    Ohio is the 24th to legalize recreational marijuana recently.

    I gotta love how Facebook keeps promoting politics on my feed that are in direct opposition to my beliefs and my humanity.

    I wonder if they do that just to make more advertising money? I think people click more often on stuff they disagree with than agree with. Same with youtube, if you post a video with a very controversial headline I'll bet you get more clicks. Because people just have to see what it is about because they don't like it.

    Isn't there some way to turn that off/select preferences??

    I feel like I can totally relate to the lyrics of Metallica’s The Unforgiven.

    I loved that song when I was high school-the album came out when I was a junior as they used to call it (11th grade). Yep, so relatable. I remember writing up my plans for suicide later in my junior year and requesting that that song be played at the end of my funeral or if no funeral that it be played at my burial. Sort of a big middle finger to my tormentors.

    I am addicted to external validation after so many years of being completely dismissed. This can’t be healthy.

    I am tired of being my blood family’s whipping boy. Time for me to relocate.

    Once you can step out of your front door and go to work/errands without your past slapping you in the face constantly is wonderful. Trust me, I've lived it.

    I have lived through the kind of hell that many people choose not to believe. My addiction to external validation does not help. I know what really happened.
