Carpe Annum

This was originally a comment on J’s post Oki Syndrome in its later, malignant stages

The desire to cease being, and have all these little problems just go away, is fairly common. I’m willing to bet it occurs much moreso than suicide, and that these fealing are commonly dealt with by ignoring them. Which, I suspect, is not very healthy. Yet, I suspect, the population’s majority is in this state.

Time spent ignoring the self (worthless trash that we are) can seamlessly be also spent watching tv, or being a good happy consumer. I don’t think the powers-that-be really want to deal with empowered people. *unplug*

Simple silly things like getting a job, starting a career, making decisions, planning your life, eh? These things you call simple? We’re all having the same problems, don’t forget that. The least we could do is support each other. There’s a severe lack of support networks in place (at least for anything outside angsting), I found. Time to start building them.

Carpe Annum.
