Hmmmm, I believe I "am" making some meaningful difference. Even if it's just yelling at the fucked up shit. I will not go quietly into the night.

- Joe-Z 7y agoThen it seems you'll stay in this depressed state for a while longer. I agree 100% with what OP said, having experienced the benefits for myself. I never actually 'quit fb' or whatever, I just lost interest after realizing how constantly bombarded I am with stuff that has absolutely no relevance to my _actual_ life. I wish you all the best and brighter days in the future. EDIT: oh, btw your comment resonated with me because of the 'scream into the night' thing. That's also how I felt when I was a teenager who was into punkrock. There's this sense that your suffering somehow accomplishes a sort of martyrdom. But it really doesn't and it only helps to further one's negative thoughts.
- nixpulvis 7y agoHey man, did you hear Rage Against the Machine is making a comeback? Just because I'm depressed about these things doesn't mean I'm depressed. Or at least not usually. Life's weird.
- eric_b 7y agoI don't even know how to respond to this. Do you really believe "yelling at the fucked up shit" will do anything positive? There is no change without actual action. If anything whining in to the wind will just exhaust and alienate people.
- nixpulvis 7y agoCharismatic yelling is empowering, otherwise it's just whining I suppose.
