My (locked) thread about how difficulty should be a decision for the developers, not the gamers.

Great story! Very uplifting! Society often puts pressure on us to hide our weaknesses and put a brave front forward but sometimes you have to open up in order for things to get better.

Glad you are doing better. There are people out there like me that can have a lot of friends if I choose but I only want a few select friends. Having a ton of semi friends is nothing compared to having a few close friends. Those semi friends are highly unlikely to come to your aid. Hell, even having close friends it is hard for them to come to your aid sometimes.

Basically, I'm just saying you don't need a billion "friends". You only need a few select people to care. It isn't a popularity contest like it was in high school.

Really inspirational stuff man. I'm glad everything's turned for the better for you, and you're out there helping other people now!

Thanks man! Yeah it's crazy stuff. One day I am suicidal the next I'm a known voice in the public debate.

Wow.

I think really, the best things in life usually come out of our darkest times.

I am 100% certain you are right.
