Re: Mmm, meds.
Ero, I hope you don't mind if I re-post this as the body of a new blog entry. If you want, I can remove it, but seeing as you posted it as a comment, I'm not gonna chase you down to ask you.
The following was posted as a comment by Eronarn in reply to my previous blog entry:
That's scarily like me. I think the only (major) differences are that you're on medication, and you're older. I wonder what life will be like when I decide to show my real self for once? I haven't yet, perhaps to one or two people, though perhaps online is the most true version of me, the one closest to fact. And you're right about people calling out screen names. I would respond to Eronarn sooner than I would to James, as it is the name I am more comfortable with. What use is a name to me if it doesn't identify me? A generic name (on the top 25 in the country!) is useless, so I would prefer to have one of my own. Wait a minute... this is YOUR blog... why I am going into deep topics like this in it?! O_o
Sadly, our situation is similar to too many people's. It shouldn't be this way, but it is. All we can do is survive (some of us do not) - I treat it like a war to be won. I can't see the end of the war, but the end of a battle is every night when I go to sleep. It's the victory every day that keeps me going - and folks like you - the #en gang.
