Daemons, dragons and life.

[outlier_lynn]

There I go again -- thinking.

Wanna compare lives? I don't. I've never fond the game of "who has it worse" or "who has it better" a fun game. Probably 'cause I've a ready to go default of "I have it worse" and I don't want to be dissuaded. :)

I right some pretty strong stuff in my journal. For instance my thoughts of suicide the other morning. I don't know, or care, if my journal speaks to someone reading or shocks someone reading. It's a journal for me.

Aerie watched Being John Malkovich yesterday. If you are reading this, you have found the trap door into my mind. You, however, will not be able to control my actions. :)

I have wondered though, if people reading my journal think I should seek professional help; if reading about my dragons and daemons worries or upsets folks.

Although it hasn't always been true, my dragons are mostly tame. I walk with them and seldom get scorched by their foul breath. My daemons scream incessantly but mostly they are just shouting at the wind.

What gets put in this journal about their snorting fire and shouting is just another way I remind myself that as bad as they are, my monsters are just dust bunnies under my bed.

it doesn't upset me to read about the things that go on in your mind. it worries me a bit, sometimes, but that's normal -- i tend to worry about friends when they're not doing so well. should you seek professional help? hm. i don't know; it doesn't jump out at me as an instant suggestion when i read what you say. what kind of help would be useful to you?

generally i just hope that you will find what you are looking for. in a personal sense, that is; some of the things you are looking for in a global sense will IMO probably never happen unless humans evolve into something different, *wry little grin*. which might be happening as we speak, and i sometimes suspect that certain people i meet are of a different breed already, but they seem to be a small minority.

so anyway, i think you're on a good path. if there is something a professional could do to help you either hold on to it, or to feel more steadfast, quiet the demonic voices, then by all means, look for somebody like that. you know i don't see psychological help as something only for "sick" people.
