I've read (more like skimmed) probably up to page 4 or so. Apparently you are seeking help. Ok. Well lucky for you that you are clearly capable of helping yourself. Yep. You are arrogant but have attention to detail. You are clearly missing screws yet rather intelligent. Actually, you have to be walking the line of madness/oddity to some degree to really be intelligent anyways (at least in my experience). Ever wonder why you will ask a question only to realize that you instinctively know the response is BS or doesn't make sense? Well, you could only detect that something is "BS" if somewhere in your brain, soul, whatever you already know what isn't BS. Think about it. So again you are perfectly capable of helping yourself. I love astrology but even astrology and asking questions on this site will only just reiterate what you actually already know. So if your Gemini energy is bored or your Scorpio Asc feels like being cynical then do what you want. Well what do you know, a dollar just fell out of my pocket. Time for me to go back to doing whatever I was doing before this.

p.s.: stop with the suicidal stuff. You're Scorpio Asc for cat-sake, we don't do that.

Hello Teasel (I like that name, it's phonetically pleasing to me for some reason). I added on to my above comment based on yours. So here's the thing. Anyone is capable of feeling that way, but we all (no matter what we think) can get out of it. Especially Scorpio Ascendants like us whose very nature is to survive all things in life. We feel things so deeply so certain things can literally feel like emotional vivisection. However, that is the very reason why we are able to survive things. When you feel that deeply you begin to understand it better than most. It is always easier to figure out that which you understand than that which you don't. Teasel you are still here today, typing to me and breathing. You haven't let anxiety get you so down that you've become a vegetable or commit suicide. Of course, not everyone who commits suicide is weak or any of the other things ppl believe. However, what they are would be a person who gave up (whether for a good or bad reason) they gave up. The problem with giving up is that you will never impact the world the way you may have if you didn't. Often ppl who go through hardships develop a mind/spirit that could be of immense use to this world. It would be a shame for those brilliant things to never see the light of day if you will.

Another point is that natural medicine is a separate thing from homeopathic medicine, they are not the same. I am a bigger fan of Natural Medicine. However, modern medicine also has its merits. I have been sick all week and am off the roof grateful for three things: Ibuprofen and Chai Tea. I combined two things; modern medicine and natural medicine to help me through this.

I am against modern medicine suppressing the benefits of natural medicine and find it sickening and extremely unethical but I dont throw the baby out with the bath water. Modern medicine is great for trauma for example, if you were in a car accident then you will want modern medicine to sow you back up or do surgery on you internally if needed as that would save your life.

When speaking of mental health, modern medication is not the devil, it can be extremely helpful. I just feel it shouldn't be a permanent solution and you should transition to treating things naturally but sometimes treating things naturally from the start won't be enough. Also bc modern medication did not work for you it doesn't mean its not the best option for someone else and be the difference between being functional and not functional for many or be the difference between being an Fs, Ds and Cs Student and an As and Bs student.

As we continue advancing I hope nano technology will one day be able to restructure our brains so they function optimally curing schizophrenia and delusional disorders for example and modern medication will be obsolete but we are not there yet and have to work with what we have and take advantage of both natural medicine and modern medicine; keep all your options open, explore and try and then decide what combination of things work for you.

So take advantage of the benefits of both, modern medicine and natural medicine. Why do we feel the need to put one down in order to validate the other? I see both sides doing this, why not just say that both are great tools we should take advantage of while we continue to work on fighting legislation and laws that oppress natural medicine??

Oh and didn't notice he was unregistered. Banned I guess.

Thank you. I've just had a really bad week (and an exceptionally bad six years ), but I know people who are dealing with worse.

I have been staring at this for a few minutes now and I can't help but smile. Warning: it has a calming effect, will uplift your mood and make you smile:

@darksoul, if you're listening - we'd all like to know how you're doing..

Speaking of bans, was lundan banned too or did she just stop posting?

Maybe being that explicit about violence, even to one's self, is prohibited here.

He was so off, I could imagine him going through with it. Couldn't sleep for a long time, I was so disturbed by it. Well his Aries moon-Mars energy is very aggressive and in-your-face, and my 8H Pisces moon picks up on it and emulates it back, so I had to work to dismantle the feeling. Plus I was just worried about him and his family.

In that thread he stated the following:

"You could just ban me. That'd probably work just as well."

His ego got hurt.

I wouldn't blame Randall for banning him. I wouldn't let people on my forum talk about blowing their heads off.

It crossed my mind that there could possibly be litigation issues if his parents decided to investigate if there was online bullying leading to his suicide (let's HOPE he didn't of course!) and then this forum came under scrutiny? I think Randall wouldn't want to deal with that...neither would I.

Better to nip it in the bud.

Also darksoul doesn't seem to have gotten any benefit here. We tried our best to help and beyond "thank you" he didn't seem interested, and often turned around and mocked us. So....

I think he'll be ok. He needs someone to talk to yet kept himself a difficult person to talk to. He's kind of his own worst enemy in that sense.

There is nothing more annoying than someone who says they want help but clearly do not want any help and are just seeking attention and to boost their ego. I agree with the comment you left on the other thread but did not have a chance to respond to it.

BTW someone who is truly suicidal tends to not announce it and just acts on it, this is specially the case with males. This is what its typically called a cry for help except he doesn't want help, he has been offered help again and again but he refuses it bc he is an expert and knows better than everyone. He takes the route of not taking responsibility for doing what is truly needed to better his mental health and just blaming counselors and the health care system instead for not getting better. Our health care system is not my ideal but plenty of people do get help this way.

All he could have done is aggravate us, and himself, more here. And as you said, he seemed fine with being banned.

He was talking about doing that...!
Yeah, that's really disturbing.

Plus, there's only so much one can do by way of help, online. If the person in question is serious about what they claim they want to do, then it's highly difficult to get in their head and actually 'reach' them. Their minds are already closed off, as a sort of defense mechanism.

He was looking for a very specific *something*. While I don't know what that is, it seems he got disappointed that he didn't find exactly the line/thought/motivation/reason he was looking for. All else is white noise. Though, he appreciates the effort in a way - maybe it didn't resonate with something inside him.

Great points, I did not think at all about the litigation issues related to bullying and how it can come back to this site or Randall. Although I don't think he was bullied and if he was Randall cannot control what everyone does on this site, he can ban people and that is it which can get tricky too knowing when is fair to ban someone bc of freedom of speech.
