Don't want to commit blasphemy here but I just had me first 'Shandy' today. Beer and lemonade. It was damn good.

honestly i go from miserable to giddy laughter with it then when i get out, somewhere in between

That's all good dude, but ya know, your avatar is giving me anxiety! haha

If you get the chance, try Death and Taxes. Yummy stuff, though only on tap in the SF Bay area. I never get tired of it.

Yeah, I hear that. I've done a lot of psychedelics and the first go-round I realized that it could potentially go bad but it turned out to be awesome. This time it was more like...revealing of subconscious thoughts I had, I guess, because if you asked me four days ago if I was depressed I would say absolutely not, even if things are just kind of neutral. The trip itself wasn't very intense at all. It's more like thinking about it afterwards that has me re-evaluating things.

Lots of new and interesting research being done again in the science community regarding psychedelics/psilocybin, aimed at helping people suffering from anxiety and depression. Done in a controlled environment (safe setting and dose) with participant monitoring, learning from Q&A afterwards/writing about experiences. Hope it goes mainstream soon, outside of seeking out a shaman. Too many suffering these days.

Having the presence of mind to realize that you're not doing well, and being able to let the people around you know what's going on, is a big thing... Sounds like you're doing pretty good.

That's become a big thing for me... Realizing when I'm not doing well, and being able to realize what is a symptom of whatever crazyness my brain is throwing at me, and what is really going on. Being able to realize that when I feel things are hopeless, when I feel worthless, it's just a symptom of the disorder. Being able to rationalize it like that helps me get through it. It doesn't stop the feelings and thought from happening... But nothing will. It's all about learing to live around whatever your brain throws at you.

^^+1^^ for self- awareness. when I get too deep into a negative-thinking cycle, I try to interrupt it: i take some deep breaths and remind myself that I AM not the emotions.

it's usually my old thought patterns taking over, and instead it's a good choice to be gentle with myself and step back from "becoming" the emotions. i see an MFT regularly, not a psychiatrist, and feel that she is helping to support me in a much broader way than i could expect a friend to be able to do. i did not have a lot of emotional support and positivity when i was a kid, but sometimes this can be made up for later--and it feels good.
