Scorched Earth

“Scorched earth”. Destroying anything that might be useful to the enemy. The elimination of the enemy’s resources and possibly even one’s own. In my case, it’s the latter.

The enemy is Depression. I usually fall into a deep, dark, and lonely hole at least once a year. Usually weeks before my birthday, and I don’t know why. This year, it came several weeks late.

After recent bouts with feelings of abandonment, betrayal, alienation, neglect, loneliness, and “My life has no direction and I’m thirsty for beer!”, Depression finally kicked in. And I believe seeing Click on HBO may have been the catalyst for the other shoe to drop.

I shall now retreat to the shadows to contemplate. Eliminate all the drama that the enemy feeds on. Self-evaluate and all that shit. This won’t be a blog silence kind of deal. I’ll just put whatever post frequency rule I have aside. In short, I’ll just be winging it in this blog and in Face Rockery for God knows how long. I’ll be more quiet (and less annoying) on Twitter, Multiply, and Facebook too.

So, I guess this is where I say “Life sucks! Nobody understands me! I hate the universe and it hates me back!”. I retreat to the shadows nao.

YOU’RE depressed too? WTF? Why is everyone depressed?

Also, do you have a 1280 x 1024 version of that Batman image there?

I can’t believe this, you’re depressed?

*huuggggsss*

Oh no. I go through depression before/on/after my birthdays too, heck I’m depressed every single day of the year. I’d give you a sympathy hug but that’s me feeling close so I’d invite you instead to a drink session or sumthin’

@Ade: That’s the biggest one I have. I’m looking for a wallpaper version too.

@Euri: I am. =(

@Joiz: Tell me when you’ll be in LB. I’m thinking all this drama can be washed away by Agapita’s Red Horse.

Stupid CLICK made me cry last night too. What say we all go to this weekend’s party at The Mordo’s house and let’s drown that depression in sweet sweet beer? Huh?

Baddie :( *imaginary hug*

I think it’s the weather and the December blues, too. I’m feeling more hormonal and bitter lately.

@Steel: Click didn’t make me cry. It just poked my eyes, hence the tears.

@Helga: But this is MY weather. Gloomy weather usually makes me happy. But now it’s fuel to my Emo Machine. =’(

hey G,
sorry to hear about the big D visitation.
i am also battling it right now, (though i did not write about it)
and i am actually going to to see a doctor on tuesday before it gets out of hand. (you know being a mother and all…very difficult to just curl up into a ball and coccoon indefinitely. plus unlike Steel, i don’t really find beer “sweet”, but that’s just me)
you must be really Depressed if you even visited me–since you hardly do so–nag drama pa ano…
misery loves company-so know you do have company.

Come on, Chesca. I visit you even when I’m not depressed. Heh. Thanks for the company. It’s totally appreciated. =)
