Today was very intense! a book worthy experience really, but ain't no way I am doing it all in this "lazy Saturday post" I could really catch a break today so I will share a highly condensed version there is also some 3rd party privacy matters here that I would not be at liberty to share that would make a post like that extra time consuming to craft.
Today I had some time off work and the kids see their mom and even though I always got a lot of house work, them side hustles and all the other various things I work on, I decided to take it easy so I had some R&R, I went on a nice date.
I realize my idea of R&R is very unconventional, If you been following the blog you probably recognized my unconventional ways.
We got some magic mushrooms from a dispensary and went to the planet earth art installation/exhibit called Arcadia earth, I am fairly familiar with the state of affairs so it wasn't anything new to me but seeing thing in this altered state presented with powerful art has a huge impact and I appreciate this "weaponization" of art for positive change and inducing much needed relfection.
The truth of the matter is that our society is very unstable and unsustainable but not only that also the majority of people are not satisfied with the status quo.
What are we doing folks ?
SUICIDE PREVENTION
It went way deeper too but as I was writing this post I got a call from a friend unfortunately it was not a great call he was saying some very concerning things, I did my best to try to speak life but things are not so simple my stance on suicide are not necessarily the best for suicide prevention because I don't believe in making people suffer and if it's the only viable option for them I support them even though it's would be easy for me to live with that loss it worth considering it may be harder for them experiencing all the suffering.
Some touching and vile things got said it was heavy shit, luckily it seems there is room for consideration and no drastic irreversible actions will be taken.
If you reading this we basically family I got you! don't ever think you not loved or no one cares I LOVE YOU, I CARE!
If you hella down don't hesitate to reach out, I promise the things we discuss are between us, I really want to make sure folks making the right choice because there is no coming back from this one.

@bitcoinman's bits of wisdom
- Invest only what you can afford to lose and be mindful of the potential risks.
- Unless you can accept delivery stay away from futures and stick to physical.
- Leverage is a great tool for losing money fast.
- Numismatics for the lows stick to smart stacking baby.
- Be cautious of new schemes in crypto, like ICOs, DeFi, and NFTs, do your research before investing.

That's it for today's post thanks for stopping by your support is truly appreciated.
My brother committed suicide he was consuming too much alcohol. My aunt and uncle got him married despite his inability to work and his attitude to just please people around. My parents did the same to me but I moved out of house and also built career but remained single and now in next few years reaching 40s. I have all the reasons to commit suicide considering nobody will look after me in old age. I have no idea why I am even alive for.
None of the dreams, none of the happiness ever met. But I am just alive like zombie for god knows why. World is never fair but the thing is that you can't fight in this world all the time. You burn out and become zombie. I am just living a day at a time and waiting for death. Suicide is possible and rightfully should be done but I have no idea what is stopping me. Living in 3rd world life is even more harder.
I like how suicide prevention places are there but if only world becomes less threatening and less competitive, people would not commit suicide. And maybe they will just have some space and pace to live with others.
You are doing good work, knowing this side of the life, I can't say about success but yeah godspeed.
Many times I have felt like you, and maybe worse because I am 55 years old, without family, friends or people who care. But I found a purpose here at hive, talking to people, and interacting.
That has helped me a lot, I think you can dedicate yourself to what you like, I would love to have someone who could explain to me when and how to make moves in the world of trading, that is an interesting area.
And I'm sure other people are interested, have you tried giving a talk about that? If you do, let me know, I'm interested in hearing what you have to say.
Hey there "old man" I am over 40 and I tell you when I got married: A year ago. Nobody has to die alone if you are afraid of that. Some places give comfort to people who have nobody else. You do not have to be alone. You can go out there and explore the world around you. Your life is not over because you are getting close to 40.
Please reach out for help!
Reach out to a local helpline. Just call them and share your post with them.
Find your doctor and get a subscription for psychiatric help. It is no shame to ask for help. We all have been to dark places in our mind.
Thanks for the kind words. My family is kind of toxic and me being their financial ATM, its something they don't want to see me getting married. And I approached doctors who said you can always go to old age house just take care of family and go to old age home and don't get married. So this whole scenario is like I am on my own to save myself. As the society is rigged in favor of parents despite them being toxic. But god knows what is keeping me alive and with blind hope that everything one day will be alright. Me just find internet hopeful and crossing fingers.
Family is something we can not choose, however there are a lot of different dynamics. Try to talk to your family, explain what is on your mind and how close you are to harming yourself.
They are not the type who listen. Only way out of this is death, either mine or theirs, and they being evil they won't die, it's either me or nothing. People around me knows this and they are kind of sad to see that it's the only way left for me. But they are just kind of secretly hope that the opposing side suffers so that they stop damaging me further.
The world does make it hard to be happy, I really hope you don't give up and feel free to reach out if you need to talk, I would love to help you find your purpose
You've clearly been through quite a lot in your life, and it hasn't been easy. Searching for meaning is an important part of everyone's life, and I think we can all relate to wanting to find our value in the world. I think that the process of life itself is often a search for such meaning, and that in searching for the meaning, we are fulfilling our purpose. Some find their purpose early, and others later - and that's ok because we're all different.
Some questions your message made me ponder:
What have you been doing with your life so far? What, in your personal view, would bring you happiness? Are you capable of doing something that would bring you the things that would make you happy?
Please do let me know.
I am working and paying bills, spending time in depression and rest on internet doing crypto. Tried relationship but those ended up more demanding than my family and so I had to bow out. If I do get married which is hard in future but I'd let god do the rest. I never experienced happiness of my own, I only chased achievements and reached them and moved to next. I can only think of travel that can change this depression but lack of money would get in the way.
Do you find any meaning in the work that you do? Do you think that you're providing some type of value to others in that way?
Relationships and marriage are definitely difficult and require their own work. However, they can also be quite rewarding when you find someone for whom you care and who cares for you as well. Loneliness certainly wouldn't help someone in your condition; consider that if you have a relationship, you may find meaning in taking care of your significant other.
Regarding the travel, that's actually a very interesting idea. What if you travel and find work wherever you go? There are people out there who live this type of lifestyle. It's not easy by any means, but it has been done. If you have nothing left to lose, maybe this would be a new start for you? Do you think that may be worth a try?
Yes that is the goal actually. I have started taking skills that would help me travel and take break an not get tied to 9 to 5 jobs. But age is catching up as I am in 40s and desk jobs have made me weak sitting for hours in bus commute then desk job. But yes what you is where I am moving right now, doing remote jobs and travel that's the goal, do it till I get tired and fade away. Relationship and maybe support for old age if I can get that would be god's blessing.
It does sound like you have a plan, which is excellent. Keep learning those skills as much as you can. Importantly, don't abandon your health - both physical and mental. Without your health, there's not much else. It may not be easy, but it's essential that you make some time for exercise and to visit a doctor. This can help keep you stronger longer so that you can travel as you wish to do.
It is within reach. I want you remember that despite your life circumstances, and even if things do not turn out perfect, you still have the power to lead your life in the direction that you're planning, and make the best of the cards you're dealt. You have to be brave enough to make it happen while you're still able to do it. Tel yourself every day, with vigor and sincerity, that this is doable. Do this until you truly believe it - and then do it!
I always had the plans, I am kind of like that cat that lives on it's own but I always got my plans punched in the face due to family and the circumstances. So no matter how hard I try roads get blocked. Hope I get peace.
First, I want to commend you for not giving up on yourself and opting for suicide, that shows how strong you are and that you wouldn't allow your present condition make you stop living life.
Although you said that you are existing like a zombie, I want to let you know that it is possible for you to live a beautiful life if only you can re - enlighten yourself and try to look at the positive things of life
Granted you are getting to 40 years with no family of yours due to the failed relationships, dear friend that shouldn't make you give up on love. Just know that if you love love, love will find you again. Give it another try.
I may not know if you usually spend time around nature - maybe taking a walk in the garden or just be anywhere that speaks of nature? But just know that there's always this peace and tranquility that is found in it. I'm sure if you try it, you will find out more
Do you know people from Hive who live nearby? It feels good to meet like-minded people.
Being alive is better than not. What is stopping you? You want to live more than die. Maybe a need to spend some time in nature and/or to find some purpose to fulfill, and new friends to enjoy time with. Think about when things were better and head back in that direction. Best to you.
Good you were able to go on a date to ease off stress,its always necessary,I guess your health is getting better by now.

I'm glad you got some time in to enjoy time away from the kids.
I'm sorry to hear your friend is going through a rough time, but I'm glad you were able to be there for them and they didn't choose to commit suicide. Life can be rough, but like you said, there's no coming back once you do it. Things do get better.
