I do the same thing sometimes -- write out something I think is funny and then scrap it for being in bad taste or potentially offensive or just too much in one way or another.  (If that´s what you mean?)  On the other hand, what´s a little ribbing among friends?  I´ve got the feeling Earl Grey can take whatever we might throw at him and throw it back in style.

 

I think it was intentional on his part. He surely is clever like that.. 

 

Btw I don't know if it's the same, and don't know how much experience you have with being demonized for what's in somebody else's head, and how amazingly confusing it can be.

Well, Ms. Ilu, the thumb doesn't point forward either. You still have three pointing back at you...and the point is. Sweep your own side of the street before you tell someone else to sweep theirs. How about this, "don't spit in the wind." Try that and see if it works Or, don't take my Inventory if you haven't taken yours. Or KISS, "Keep it simple stupid" Or if you or your significant are worrying about what going to happen tomorrow just ask the question, "What day are we in." Or, if you or your SO are living in the Past and/or the Future "you're pissing on today."

The only reason I came back after a 4 year break is that I got bored and needed to fill up my time intellectually.

 

There are people here I like and have come to consider friends, and I love the connections and interactions - especially when they provide me with something I find interesting enough to personally or intellectually explore.

I felt I was possessed twice in my life when actually I was profoundly depressed. There is a lot of darkness and sometimes grey, but mostly darkness, dread, demoralization, lack of hope, lethargy (see Beck's Inventory on the Internet. Take it, it is an eye opener on how much we tolerate and get use to when it comes to depression). Depression is usually anger turned inward. Other kinds of depression are exogenous, situational. Most are chemical imbalance.

Most of the arguments on here are like that, I think.  People get an idea of who I am, often a mistaken and negative idea, and just run with it.  I´d like to be the kind of person who effortlessly disengages from the conversation when it´s clear nothing good will come of it.  That´s hard to do though, at least for me.

I am you, my friend.   Merged with you, yet with different conditioning.

[Jim D.]

I'm back kiddies. Missed you. Archery was fantastic. Thought of you as I hit the target. You know, you can shoot a lot of arrows in an hour and half. Say, have any of you participated in group therapy. I will tell you about Yalom's model. Look it up so you can follow along with me. First the group has to be homogenous, you know, all alike. It is good to have only 15 in a group. It is easy to manage, and everyone gets to participate. We start out with the group leader asking the group to come up with something they would like to talk about. Then the group leader asks who would like to go first. But before this happens, we set group rules e.g. no cross talking, no swearing, no high jacking the group, no infighting, no verbal abuse, and keep it on yourself. But you know what happens. There is a dynamic that occurs when a new person comes into the group (me). It upsets them. Yeah, someone in the group will challenge the group leader, and of course, the group leader has to reign them in and establish his authority and presence. Well you know, after a while the group gets use to the leadership of the group leader and they all settle down and act like the adults everyone expects to be. So far kiddies, your behaving in the manner I expected you to behave. I am different than you, and you want me to be like you so you feel comfortable and safe. Some of you kiddies are trying to be the group leader, but can't do it with finesse. I takes years of self examination to accomplish this. It would be a customary technique for me to ask someone in my past therapy groups to take the chair for the evening. But I cannot do that yet, because no one has proven themselves capable of that yet, but "it's a commin." I think that Mr. Grey has potential. In between the lines of anger, there have been glimpses of him and his issues. Mr. Walker has potential if he can only learn to ask for what he wants without being passive aggressive. But he has to learn to keep it on himself and not blame the group leader for the feelings that bubble up. For example, why is the Jim D. pissing me off so much. Mr. Rocky is new to the group. It is obvious he needs to establish himself through his acting out and adolescent behavior.  Our group community will need to work with Mr. Rocky on his lack of communication skills. Some of the words he has used, not chosen to use, is probably the way he communicates out in the world. Your see, a man's real self comes out when he feels safe behind a key board. He seems to hate himself for some reason. But if he can stop acting out and act spiritually he will progress nicely.

 

The people I helped were people in the System e.g. Juvie, D.U.I. , Domestic Violence Perpetrators, County Jail, TASK, DCFS, Parolees, Drug Addicts, Alcoholics...Now, do you kiddies really want to behave like the above, or do you want to work on yourselves and show us what you got, what you don't like about yourself, and what you want to change. Or are you happy with the way you communicate, and at the level you communicate which is adolescent or pre-adolescent...when you challenged your parent's authority. 

 

You know, Mr. Sean told me that the Bums were a weird bunch. Amen to that! But it is doable if you follow the rules of conduct. They're there for a reason. And that is to keep the chaos agents down and manageable. I guess we all need to read that memo again. 

 

P.S. Do you really think that you are going to be able to get over on me. I have got all the time in the world, and the experience to handle it. Your attempt to piss me off, or weigh me down is silly. You can't beat a powerful man who believes in himself. Like I told a Methadone client in Methadone clinic filled with retired or broken down gang bangers...a client who challenged me in a room that was closed and I was in the interior...the only white guy other than a white client...do you really want to go there???You see, you can beat me down to a grease spot, but you can't beat the right out of me.  

 

O.K. That's it for now. Going to watch a Netflix movie. Again, it has been entertaining as always. Thanks for helping me keep what I give away. And remember, Jesus is really all right with me!!! Or Buddha, or Shinto, or Hara Christina, George Harrison, Bad Finger...

 

Disclaimer: Anything said above is not an attempt to circumvent the rules about psychiatry, diagnosis, or treatment. Those that want to participate in a Mr. Rogers experience can at their own will. Examples given of my past experiences as a group leader were given as a matter of addressing unprofessional conduct of respondents that were less than polite, and down right rude and ignorant. Or should I say, "ignant!"

 

Your truly forever and forever...

How is it you are reluctant to look at yourself through Mr. Rogers eyes? What are you avoiding?

 

 

Based on the alarming amount of your assessments of others being laughably wrong (not just for me and to me, mind you), I think the way you think Mr. Rogers would look at me is quite different from how I would imagine he were to look at me. You remind me of the parents who think that their daughter is a little angel with all her good grades and focus on college and were so certain of themselves that they had no idea what we did on their kitchen table when they were out for the weekend, at her own suggestion, mind you. 

 

They were Christian, too, and some of the words that came out of her mouth made us laugh as we said that the best thing about being one with Christ is knowing that you don't need to ask for forgiveness!

Quote

Please stop all of this "insanity." You have proven my point about Emotions over Intellect = Insanity. Please stop! I am sorry I started this topic. I want to go back and rethink it, and not post my personal feelings and views of a person I admire as not afraid to stand up and fight back. Is he a little crazy, I think so.  It was all about my history of being bullied and not having the courage to stand up for myself. I wanted attention brought to me because I was bored. This attempt at entertaining myself was brief and very negative...not worth it if others are going to act out until they are not bored anymore. It is out of hand. I feel a lot of negativity and it is not good for me or anyone. It is becoming very dark in here. So, open up the box and let some light in. In a 100 years, what difference will it make.
