Well written and I feel/acknowledge your pain as a fellow failer/sufferer lol

Fighting is the only option. Life really feels a never ending fight. You get breaks every now and then, but the moment you stop fighting you lose and there is no winning. Winning is acceptance and realization, not actually winning.

You can still make the never ending fight easier though. Making small daily life improvements can really add up. Never give in nor give up!

Facts. One of the first things that gets neglected for me, but I am also sure many others, is self-care. Taking the time to clean up your living area, do a skincare routine, cook a healthy breakfast, work out... all of these things tend to fall to the wayside when you're in the depths of the struggle. They seem like small things, but they really are a large component of the driving force behind the stability we enjoyed and desire. Just doing "what you should do" can be the difference between spiraling deeper into the regret/guilt cycle and staying afloat. They are the foundation that allows us to keep fighting, as you said.

Thank you for the thoughtful and affirming response 🙏

Good to see you feeling better.

Still need to get revenge for you kicking my ass but I suck now. Maybe you play with one hand or something idk.

Also just realized I'm beginning to encroach on my own 10k :o

Hahaha it would be a shitshow for sure, I basically only play 2v6 comps on Blizz and sometimes noob-tier 3v3 BGH. I don't know any modern maps or meta. Officially washed af.

Looking forward to your 10k!

We should just go noob stomping on 2v2 fastest or something, but probably end up raging at each other when we do dumb shit.

Thank you for sharing; it was really cool meeting you and spending some time with you when we did; reading your blog makes me understand how I guess I have lived and am living similar ways to how you are, and not only us two - it makes me feel understood - stay cool man

I genuinely thought I was pretty prolific and you hit 10K in 2 years? :O

I can’t say I always agree with your takes, but I’ve always appreciated the way you articulate them, this post especially.

Had my own issues, my dad dying, having a kid, having that relationship and having a complete breakdown and a year in hospital in a fun 2.5 year crunch.

Hey 7 years later and I’m still not sure if I can get my old happy-go-lucky self back, but I sure as fuck can hang in there and be the best I can be, for myself and those in my life.

It does somewhat confuse me that our species is so afflicted with various neuroses that seem of little evolutionary benefit, or perhaps it’s merely our cultural constructions not neatly intersecting with our biology. Whatever it is it can be a fucking pain in the arse, to put it mildly…

Gonna stop before I go full ramble, but cheers for sharing and a lot of what you said absolutely resonated with me, take care man!

Great blog and self reflection post. I recently did a round of going through my old posts myself. Good and cringy memories. Good times and bad.

Anyways, thanks and glad you're good man. <3
So wait? I'm bad? =(

It's actually uncanny how from your 7th paragraph onwards, this feels like somebody put words on my current life.

Take care, and never stop fighting.

First I skipped through it. Then I read the paragraphs out of order. Then I read them in order again... lel
Congratulations on feeling good about life again and on the new 10K!

Everything passes.. Emotions (good and bad), ladder rank, gas, life..
Make the best of it! <3 <3 <3

As the Ancient NHFFA Wisdom goes: NEVER GIVE UP! NEVER SURRENDER!
If I can get D rank by SCV only rush almost anything is possible! \o/\o/\o/\o/\o/

Much love! <3 <3 <3
