Venting The fact that I have to distract myself with the "fun'' things society offers, just to barely keep myself from going insane, is insane to me.

Fun things such as video games, tv shows and movies, music, drugs, alcohol and whatnot, etc. are just temporary distractions from this corrupt world. It feels like I'm being bribed into continuing living, to continue suffering. For everyone else, I guess they keep them from going completely insane. For me, they're barely keeping me alive. Just barely.

I guess having those things in life is better than not having anything at all. But still. I can only distract myself so much for so long before those things won't matter enough to seem like life is worth living anymore.

Indeed. And sometimes you get to the point where you no longer find comfort in even those things, alas . . . :-(

Exactly. I feel like I'm already reaching up to that point with a lot of things (but not all things, yet).

None of it distracts me anymore I'm really far gone. Wish I would've ctb decades ago.
