  Not Dunkin’ apparently. He’s on the way back and looking no better. Maybe Starbies has what he needs?

    I’m sure one day God will let me enter his paradise… I’m tired of living life

  The only emotional support i have found is from myself. When friends/family say “don’t worry, buddy, it will get better” i recognize that they mean well but those sayings do nothing for me—in fact, they feel invalidating of my emotions.

    Exactly! In contrast to that, if I experience “it getting better” it’s a totally different thing.

    When a friend of mine needs help I try to be sensitive but it’s still possible that I’ll drop a “Don’t worry, buddy, it will get better” myself. It’ll be honest, though.
