TLDR is accurate in that it is Too Long Did Read [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I have said multiple times before that I could never completely walk away from the siren song that is fentanyl until my connect literally ghosted me (worried he died…) forever. And I see buying Bitcoin and going on the dark web as too much trouble, luckily. But prior to that, having it available on a slow boring weekend day with just a phone call and a 30 minute wait (I call it Dealer time which doesn’t function like real time, Dealer time can mean a 30 min eta is really a 2 hour eta). With a great support system and strong willpower I could dose very carefully (always eating) and keep use to once a month if that. But I couldn’t walk away completely. Fentanyl the way it’s made here (which pops for fent, and a tiny bit of MDMA, and meth in drug tests supposedly) is the best lab made high man can create currently. It’s like a Dryad charm with -15 saving throw. That’s why I say, the best thing we can do for addicts is make drugs as annoyingly difficult to get as possible. Haven’t had it in, Jesus more than a year now

And in regards to asylums, yes they should come back. But it’s a funding issue. Or it would be. Shit’s super expensive. And continually depriving someone of their rights for a lifetime can be a legal nightmare

The desire to die is another desire. It's not meaningful nor is it helpful for the world mind.

However it should be respected and not be gatekept. Stay strong. There is meaning in helping others. In helping the world find inner peace and enlightenment. In growing the mind flowers of the many universes.

No drugs are necessary.

Cute.

Asylums could be nice. Butt they won't be. The world isn't quite ready. The asylum extends from a desire for safety and the unnatural extension of life.

Though helping the less fortunate can bring peace and contentment.

This is fear of losing control or freedom.

Or the desire to be in control and have power.

It's also quite funny.

Also psychotic people are going to suffer anyway. So even if the asylum system was horribly flawed. It would likely still be an improvement. Especially with all that psychiatry and psychology has improved. It's necessary for the greater whole to begin learning to heal and grow through enlightenment. Sometimes this involves suffering for longer term goals of reducing overall suffering. So. Yeah. Asylums would be nice. In general.

Asylums would also be a general overall improvement over the private prison industrial complex. Butt people don't seem to be ready to treat those with the severe cognitive disabilities that contribute to poverty, crime, violence, self harm and substance abuse with compassion. So improvement here is not expected anytime soon.

severe cognitive disabilities

Yea, from working with homeless clients for the past 17ish years, I think that the layperson doesn’t understand just how many of the homeless have mostly one single problem: very very low IQ

It’s not a medical problem. It’s not a mental illness, per se. But it is a life-ruiner. Someone with a very low IQ will struggle to get or maintain any job that requires remotely complicated instructions or tasks. They won’t understand how to manage money. They will fall for scams and con artists left and right

And they really have no protection. There are group homes for those with legal status of mental disability, but everyone just above that cutoff gets fucked. And asylums won’t be able to help them, or they won’t want to stay in one because they won’t feel they belong with the seriously mentally ill
