Top text: “I’ve never experienced depression” Bottom text: “But what you need to do is…”]No, see dad at this point you should stop and if you really, really, really think that a lecture about how I’m wasting my time and potential is the magical cure that will fix my bipolar, you should go get mom, who has experienced depression, and will maybe be able to reflect on her experience and find a way to give me your oh so important message in words that won’t piss me off quite as much.
Yep.
My dad has been nagging me too.
What I “need to do” is get a world outside of the internetz.
The internetz is muh therapyyy.
It’s not like I have any friends in Wahp anyway. I really don’t.
I dislike drinking, so you won’t find me at the bar.
Blah.
Heh yeah part of what I “need to do” was also having more social time off of the internet. That’s all well and good except that I don’t feel any emotional connection to where my parents live and none of my friends live here. That and it’s a bit ironic to be giving me this long lecture about how face-to-face interaction is important so I can hear tone of voice and see facial expressions when he spends every single “deep and meaningful” conversation (whether it’s about gay rights, my mood, religion, or any of the other many things he likes to “debate” with me) not even looking at me because he’s too busy playing silly games on his iPad. Maybe I would be more motivated to interact with people in real life if the people I interact with online weren’t 100 times less obnoxious.
