So another note, I watched this touching video. She had suffered mostly the same problems as me and she has inspired me to fight my depression and bipolar furthermore.

 

Depressed or not, this is worthwhile to watch:

Thank you for sharing Shane. I agree that such issues are severe.

 

I have a few friends suffering from depression, and it is a painful thing to see people you care about suffering, especially when you are trying to help them.

 

It's a good reminder to have every now and then that people all over the world are suffering from issues we typically do not even think about (or at least ignorant people like me).

 

It makes me thankful for the little I have.

I was depressed for a little bit. I discovered something new, helped calm the nerves and now I'm not depressed... but still crazy.

I can't watch the video; it says it's private.

 

But yeah ... I also suffer from depression, bipolar II, social anxiety, and a number of other things I won't go into. It's like mental disorder bingo!

It says it for me now too. Strange how a video that had a million views and supporters just turns private... I'm going to take it this was a side effect on Google+'s end.

 

I suffer from social anxiety too. It's not fun.

Related to the above post, I tend to suffer from being very pessimistic and irrationally harsh on myself. I wonder if I might be suffering some type of depression myself as I am quick to punish myself for making petty mistakes that nobody else would care one way or another about me making. There are also times I get completely paralyzed by fear and do nothing out of fear of messing up. I am generally socially adverse as well, being very reserved most of the time although I'm pretty outgoing once I'm no longer afraid of a new situation. Joining here for example took me a while because I thinking the worst case scenario that everyone would be mean to me here. Now that I see that's not the case, I've come out of my shell somewhat, although I'm generally not one to talk unless I am spoken to first.

On a more serious note, I seem to have no mental illnesses and whatnot, according to my doctor.

 

EDIT: Though I may or may not be at high risk of being a diabetic since my father's side of the family has a diabetic history, so I'm more at risk of a physical illness instead of a mental one.

People look up the most strangest things...

 

Anywho, I look a little bit less of a wreck-who-gets-nervous-break-downs-every-day. I refused to take medication and just fought it. Sometimes though I feel like just staying in bed all day though and I'm still having trouble being a part of a society. Eye contact is something I can't do no matter what. My mom says she's sorry it got passed down to me. One of my older brothers has this problem too.

 
Also found the same video that works. I think.

I'm looking around at peoples' signatures, and I see things like "Quest progress: Dungeons: 50%. Overworld: 100%. Bosses: 2%." and I can't help but think to myself, "what if I saw something like: Overworld: 4%. Dungeons: 150%. Bosses: 335%. Quest: 4%."

I enjoy breaking things that can't be broken. I am 115% sure of this.

[Nathaniel]

Bosses 335%.  That's a lot of spare parts waiting to be used in other quests.

[ShadowTiger]

Hahah, wow. That reminds me of this. I mean, how can a person have 150% overworld. "whoops, I accidentally built way more overworld than people will ever see. Oh well! Director's cut edition.

[KingPridenia]

Wow, that's strange. Perhaps the other 50% will get dummied out in the final product or hidden in some very obscure place that requires a very detailed set of instructions to find? But in all seriousness, 115% of statistics are true.

My quest is 5.20,203,0.293,39.0.-89338.1% done.

I made a rather unique discovery today. I had to go to the doctor to get a couple moles removed that might have been cancer, and had to take some pill beforehand called Valium. (mainly to help with a debilitating fear of needles) There were some issues at the pharmacy, so I took the pill a bit later than I should have, and it didn't kick in before the doctor started. However, it's been a while and I've already gotten home, and I still don't feel any different from having taken that pill.  My parents are claiming that my eyes are dilated, and warned me not to get up, but I've been walking around for a bit and feel fine. It's supposed to mess with your head and stuff, but I haven't felt any different or said anything stupid.

 

So, it appears I'm mostly immune to Valium. It's supposed to be a rather potent drug, too. If this stuff is anything to go by, I don't think I'm ever going to take recreational drugs. I'd get too bored waiting for the high that's supposed to happen.

[ShadowTiger]

Valium, huh. Congrats. I'm immune to Vicodin. Three vicodin did nothing. Half a day later, two tylenol PM knocked me out like a light in fifteen minutes. Bawww.
