I'm still alive. Sorry for worrying people.
I haven't been posting recently but someone brought to my attention via PM that people have been worries about me:
Thank you guys for the concern, it's nice to know that people are thinking about me.
To be honest I haven't been posting because there hasn't been anything good to post about. I'm trying to stick to the old "if you don't have anything good to say, don't say anything", for fear of alienating everyone with one whiny post after another.
I've been in a pretty dark place this past month or so. I'm not actively suicidal, not planning, but I have to admit I think about it all the time. Have had some issues with binge drinking as well. All I do is sleep and eat, have my night and day reversed. I'm living like a mole. At any rate I'm seeing a new psychiatrist on the 4th and will see where that goes. Sorry to worry everyone.

9. please please please please (did I say please enough ? lol )......
see a trained psychotherapist. For psychotherapy. That typically, but not always, excludes board-certified psychiatrists. Why ? Dispensing medication in 15 minute increments for $100 is a lot more lucrative ($400 an hour) than charging $150 an hour for therapy.
The degrees to look for (in the USA anyway) are MA, MSW, MS, Ph.D. and Ed.d. Yes, SOME M.D. psychiatrists are good at therapy and don't charge $150 an hour, but they are few and far between. Shrinks are great at what they do, but they do not do therapy by and large !
I really need to shut up on this topic from now on. You're a nice guy Loct0s but your posts do worry me a tad. I'm only trying to help, honest.
Well, it looks like we got a contender for the top DUmmies who's recrudescencing; I was worried.
He won't make numbr one, but I'm sure he'll make the top ten.
It's nice to see new faces in the Top DUmmies.
I was actually worried about LocoNuts. I must be getting soft.
He needs to make sure that if he decides to commit suicide, he's at least logged into the DUmp.
Whoever finds him needs to be able to give the DUmp an update under his name.

It wasn't so much worry...it was a pool about your demise, and I'm out $25 bucks now. Thanks a lot. That's your fault!
--blah blah blah--

I'd say that was actively suicidal. (Puts money in a new pool.)

DUmmy stevenumbers is showing compassion on the slim chance that LocoNuts is female.

Have had some issues with binge drinking as well. All I do is sleep and eat, have my night and day reversed. I'm living like a mole.
If you felt that way, yes, you are getting soft.
Stop it; spend your softness on worthy causes, not on primitives.
That alone does not distinguish you from any of the other primitives.

Is this some kind of LOLcat speak? :-)
But let's hope that LocoNuts, among his final acts on this earth, logs in to the DUmp and posts a play-by-play account of his demise right up to the last second.
He really needs to think of his parents. All those psychiatrist (and cheeto) bills must be devastating their retirement savings.
I blame Frito-Lay for the increase of DUmmy mental health 'episodes'.
They introduced New Cheetos, with "half the lithium of our Original Recipe, but all the finger-sucking flavor".(http://i1299.photobucket.com/albums/ag72/conscave/CheetoGraph_zps1e8d501e.jpg)
Sorry, DUmmies. It's settled science. The graph says so.

The best advice I can offer to Locut0s is to stop the drinking and to take advantage of your nocturnal state by getting a night job and getting a gym membership at a 24 hour gym. I can sympathize about having your days and nights backwards, but then I work 3-4 12 hour shifts a week on nights. When I only have 1 or 2 days off between shifts, it doesn't seem worth it to switch back.
