JIM THORELL LUCID MEMES
Hello how are you fine folks doing? I hope everyone is well, I was away for a while due to bad depressive cycles and such, plus I got banned for a couple weeks to add insult to injury. I've been hitting the sweet molecule for three days now, and have yet to sleep. Slithering and weaving between worlds, I have seen many strange things. I saw a beautiful german shepherd puppy, but it ran away from me :(
Slender-bunnies, rosehips, fish, this thing made of 4 dimensional yellow triangles, giant amoebas, creatures from the movie “Cat Soup”, dogs, kittens, demons with sexy bodies but skull faces, spiders made of translucent metal.
I'll get past the things holding me back with support from those that stand with me. I'm ready to get to work and I finally have the time, energy (when my mental gremlins aren't attacking my brain that is) and best of all, I'm not locked into a downward spiral, so if I can help anyone out of the one they're in, I would love to do so. If I can keep one person from doing just a FEW of the idiotic things I did in my brash and sad session (Bloom of youth XD)
then I'm happy. Happiness is the shakiest of things and yet also most solid.
Shout out to ziggy, Molly beck, firetower and trelt!
