I genuinely owe a lot to all to you. Even people I don't generally care for, you still played a role in me getting as far as I did. So I thank you, all of you, from the bottom of my heart. See you crazy kids on the other side.

Um......I mean ok?

 

I'll try to find someone with genuine sympathy to come to this thread because this sounds a bit off, but I can't be bothered to express false feelings.

 

Don't die dude?

I always take shit like this seriously.

based on Skiles recent behavior this seems to be serious

Dammit... I was asleep during all of this, nobody fucking texted me ... :(

 

What would you do?

 

I think everyone needs to chill the fuck out. He's starved for attention... I hope for the best and wish him well... but dude is gonna do what he needs to do.

Talk to him, like I have done with him and others in the past.. at least for my own sake, if not theirs. I've known the dude for like 10 years...

K I'll say it like this....

 

You're a friend and not a doctor. If he is truly ready to die... so be it. He owes nothing to anyone.

 

I wish him peace... but good he doesn't remain to suffer because of other people's personal interest.

I'm not saying I am a doctor, but he has had his bouts before (Not quite as bad as this one) and usually in his case, talking to a friend helped him get through it.

 

Also, it's not an interest. I genuinely care about him.

I hope he does too, sometimes people just need to work stuff out, I'm sure Sawdsy is right and he's fine :)

On our best days, we make about a million mistakes.  We're limited in our abilities, our understanding and our processing.  That doesn't mean I disagree with the concept of someone choosing the time and place of their own deaths.  But I think there's a difference between perception and reality for all of us, and a decision of such finality, which can be ill conceived or ill considered, no matter how passionately or resolute one may feel in the decision, isn't like your garden variety "whoops" type mistake.  Or even "well I made a mess I guess" kind of mistake.

 

It's undoable.  And it can destroy people left behind. 

 

Generally speaking, it's widely accepted in social science that people who reach out don't really want to end.  They just don't know what to do, and have sort of painted themselves, by process of elimination, or some other method, into a corner, or pinned themselves down to do something they're ultimately not as sure about as they might think.

 

Seeking attention isn't always about "look at me".  We seek attention for a lot of reasons.  Sometimes because we need help.  And we might not always even understand what it is.  But something in us wants to reach anyway.  Attention could just be attention to some problem that a person needs assistance with. 

 

And attention of others is never really yours to command.  I mean, you can reach for things.  But other people outside yourself will react to that however they react. 

 

Some with disgust, some with pity, some with industry or good intentions, some with simple observation, even with malice.  People will come at it from all directions.  Because they are made up of different experiences and different wiring.

 

On a selfish level, reading Skiles posts is something I would miss.  It'd be one less opportunity to get a laugh or a thought out of the day.

 

But that's my reaction to him.  The good part of that comes from him.  It's like a gift.  When he writes something that makes me laugh or react or think about something.  He's given me a lot of those. 

 

And I feel like, you know, all the issues he has to deal with, be they personal or chemical or medical or whatever, are part of who he is, but all that other stuff, all those little gifts he's given to me and others, all that humor, that perspective, that's all him too.  And it would be a loss I think to everybody here.

 

A lot of us don't really know each other well, some of us better than others, but I feel like Skiles has a definitive spark to him.  It's unique.  It's a gift.  And the world would suck a little more without it.

So many hypocrites. When buddyroe blantantly boasted about trying to push people to suicide none of yall batted an eyelash.

we did ::]::

 

but unfortunately that's not against board rules....so complaining about it does no good

Welp, he's alive and getting help which probably means going to the hospital again... Not saying he's fine, but.. yeah.

 

good to hear, just talked to Duzi as well who spoke to him a little.  She's pretty relieved and so am I.
