Some people ask me why I blast loud music at work.
Thereās only so much silence I can take, and thereās only so much I can take my own thoughts and the voices in my head before I really start driving myself crazy.

Do you think that these last couple of years have been a bad time for musicians - or,
is it that itās our generationās turn to lose a bunch of them, or,
is it that we know more now because weāre all online, vs 20 years ago, when it took days for news to get around the world?
Iāve had enough musician loss really - itās breaking my heart.

Also Chuck Berry. But I think that the worst year was 2011 or maybe 2012. Those years were too cruelā¦

I would say itās more heartbreaking for us because it has gotten to where the greats of our time are passing whereas at other times itās people we hardly recognize or the younger crowd which-letās be honest-donāt typically stand up to par to those passing away
Whoās gonna cry for Bieber? Lolā¦not to be an @ss, not literally but just making the point

Yay so happy about the win!!!
@framos1792 - some dude called lil peep died by suicide last week - I didnāt know even who he was, only cos before he died, he at some point played a LP song at one of his gig or DJ events. And he had previously stated on the airwaves that he suffered from anxiety. Which makes me wonder - does going public with your mental health issues - is it really a good idea? Especially if you donāt have the support network around you - but then, I thought CB had a decent support network surround himā¦so I dunno. Is there some belief that itāll make it easier by speaking out? Is there pressure to speak out, to become a spokesperson? There are so many trolls online, haters and narcisstic a-holes - if youāre a sensitive person, speaking out is not necessarily a good idea - it opens you up for major criticism - dunno, just blabbering - itās what Iāve been thinking about anyhoo. I totally get your Bieber comment!
But on a positive note - freaking YAY on the winā¦

I get what you mean, idk I mean being online, hopefully people realize that they need to have thicker skin than if theyāre talking to someone in person because people donāt talk the same way
As to opening up about suicide I think regardless of what opening up does, Iād only imagine people benefiting from opening up because they arenāt trapped inside their headsā alone
Letting those demons out or at least speaking about them ought to alleviate some of that strain within, Iām not speaking from personal experience though or nothing just an assumption though I can tel you speaking even if on here is a blessing compared to being socially awkward elsewhere so that benefit truly IS there
As to the Bieber comment though lol I just meant to say it wouldnāt bother us as much in that we donāt connect in the same way to his music-at least generally speaking-chesterās passing hurt like hell because we were invested to various levels in lps lyrics

Oh, exactly - and itās not like you are saying that on a Beiber fan page, or direct to Beiberās twitter account. Cos I too think Beiber is way too beibery for meā¦but yay for those that love him to bits, whatever floats your boat.
Itās those a-holes out there that think itās OK to say really vicious things, behind the relative safety of their keyboard, and think that doesnāt impact/hurt/matter.
My goodness, I mean some were harrassing Talinda for not wearing her wedding ring for whatever reason - who cares, leave her the fudge alone, sheās got enough shiz to deal with, you trying to kill her with your spite as well?
It makes me so ANGRY.
I think, that I think that speaking out about suicide is OK, but, itās hard - and you never really escape those demons - so, how do you know that youāre strong enough to take the hit from the public, especially when you hit a rough patch. Cos a lot of the time, itās inevitable youāll feel that way again. How do you protect yourself from that? I feel that the people that have come out about it - have been let down by their, I dunno - media advisors, by downplaying the impacts it could have. But then - nobody really knows enough of what that impact is. And youāre right - speaking out does help with feeling like you are not alone anymore. Butā¦sheesh, I donāt even know what Iām trying to sayā¦LOL

Currently running on three and a half to four hours of sleep. I got woken up early to cover a morning shift at work today (also going ten straight hours without food).
Why am I not tired?

Do not go public with mental health issues. Not public public anyway. Thereās degrees of publicness.
But do find connection to your friends. Not saying go totally secret, but basically nobody needs to open themselves up to internet trolls. In a space you control, where you can filter out people who are just there to egg your problems on, you can be open about it. To your real friends. Not to Twitter.
Thereās a tightrope here though. You canāt just dump your sorrows onto your friends, the sorrow will feed and spread to them. Other people have problems that they arenāt telling you, and if you shock them then their issues will flare up too. But if instead you gave your friends attention selflessly, asked them how their day went, a real friend would want to recripocate and they will support you back. To receive, all it takes is to give.
Something that I thought about a lot.
