It’s the non stop of talking absolute bollocks. I can handle it for about an hour max. Then it’s time to go.

Dubman Why do you come on here then?

seanc80

Dubman In fairness ive told some some amount of lies whilst sitting around coffee tables at 6am, bagged up the eyeballs. To someone that was sober, id be insufferable. At best.

This is completely different.

Ever thought it could be the weed that’s causing it. I smoked it every day for 30 years. Now I’ve stopped it I feel much better. I now only vape it when I’m on holiday in India.

Dubman i find weed just amplifies whatever state my head is already in. if i’m worried about life stuff, the anxiety creeps in a little. went through that last winter when i knew my dog wasn’t doing well and it went away after she passed. i also find low dose edibles with a 1:1 cbd ratio really helps keep the experience settled when need be. to each their own of course.

Dubman Honestly….no. I hadn’t. Because it’s always been able to calm me down. But I’m wondering now. Thanks for pointing that out 🙂

Haha.

It’s different here. You can’t just go and buy some 1.1cbd ratio. You just get what you’re given and it’s got much stronger.

Dubman haha yeah, i forget that sometimes. although, i don’t buy the legal garbage either, i’m sure any mail order over there isn’t as simple. my proximity to the quality product that comes out of BC is really helpful. just ordered a 1 ml RSO dropper, looking forward to it next weekend.

I’m well aware of your situation as I have a good Canadian & Us friends who tell me all about it.

Been a shit year for sure. I lost my mother to covid back in march. I couldn’t travel over to Blighty for her cremation due to lockdown. I haven’t worked for 7 months. I’m now thousands in debt with my landlord due to no income. No government aid from the french government due to having only worked 3 months prior(I’d just moved back to France from Hong Kong), where as if I’d worked 6 months I’d’ve been qualified to earn 80% of my salary. And just because life has a sick sense of humour the apartment above me recently had a burst pipe and my living room ceiling has basically crumbled. But a part from everything going to shit I’m keeping a positive mentality. Can’t say I’m more fucked up than usual. Although the death of my Mother has certainly woken me up to the fact that we’re not in fact invincible, and time definitely speeds up the older we get.

Anyway…Here’s friday’s mix for your aural pleasures. https://hearthis.at/2jgrqphy/161020/

Thom_Fuckery that’s a rough year, losing people can be a really strange thing and makes you rethink life a bit. keep your head up. 🙂

Thom_Fuckery Although the death of my Mother has certainly woken me up to the fact that we’re not in fact invincible, and time definitely speeds up the older we get.

My condolences. Losing a parent is rough at any age, let alone not being able to say goodbye. 🙁

I lost my dad when I was 18 (not looking for sympathy, just stating a fact) and it took a good two years before it properly hit me. We all grieve differently and sometimes it really takes a good while to process. Stay on top of it and don’t be afraid to speak to people about your mental health. I only say this because I didn’t and it bit me in the ass and the consequences were awful.

Shit, so sorry to hear that fella. Hope you’re bearing up ok mate

I’m partial to depression as is… It runs in the family. Being ADD, that can also drive it too when things don’t go right and there’s been a lot of things not going right during all of this! I was off work from January to July and my motivation was next to nil. It was fine from January-March, because I was actively job-hunting but then we all started living in the Upsidedown. The companies I was interviewing with decided that they didn’t want to continue with hiring and I was quite literally in the final interview stages with a couple. Luckily an old boss thought of me and brought me on, but I’m making $5.00/hr less than I was before.

I’ve barely made any music. I like to be fit and active, so generally I play team sports or referee them to stay fit (and make a bit of dosh on the side), but I’m not a self-motivator so going for a run or working out on my own isn’t something that works for me. I need a time and a place to be and the thought of letting people down if I don’t go.

I’ve put on about fifteen pounds due to the inactivity over the past while due to the lack of sports, so it’s a real shitter when I’m used to being pretty damned fit. The upside is that on Sunday evenings I have started playing indoor 8-a-side footy, but it’s not enough. I need a few more activities to get the weight off and feeling just a lot healthier. Winter is coming too, so I’m hoping that means I’ll be more motivated to do music because that’s also really suffered. It looks like we’re headed for another lockdown again here in my province, so fuck knows what I’m going to do to figure out how to work off the weight. My Sunday football game is precarious under these circumstances.

I really want organized sports to come back. They’re a godsend for my depression. The upside is that I have a little fella now that provides endless entertainment and umconditional love, so those dark moments are few and far in between. It’s just the physically feeling better aspect that you get with aerobic activity I’m currently missing.

I’ve also oddly been on a few dates and such, which is certainly different during these times!

loopdokter self motivation is a muscle that you have to work regularly. get a chin up bar, download the insanity videos, watch a david goggins motivational speach and get to it. took me probably 2 or 3 years, but i’m a bloody machine now when it comes to exercising when i don’t feel like it.
