unable.

you need to get counseling if this is affecting you so much. if some dude died in front of you, quickly or slowly, i am sure what you saw was quite painful. posting on this message board isn't going to provide the help you need.

When a man's an empty kettle he should be on his mettle,
And yet I'm torn apart.
Just because I'm presumin' that I could be kind-a-human,
If I only had heart.
I'd be tender - I'd be gentle and awful sentimental
Regarding Love and Art.
I'd be friends with the sparrows ... and the boys who shoots the arrows
If I only had a heart

You're acting absolutely obnoxious, not to mention you deleted the thread that shows how fucking crazy you are in your reactions to your post.

I said specifically that it is really sad what happened to him, if that is what happened but that your vagueness made it impossible for anybody to actually understand the context of what you were saying until you finally provided a fucking backstory.

Just because you're acting like a fucking idiot doesn't mean I'm incapable of feeling human emotion. What happened to you is fucking tragic and terrible and you should fight to alert the masses of what happened.

What you shouldn't do is act like an obnoxious idiot who is essentially rambling and acting irrationally.

And I generally enjoy you as a poster and contributor to the forum but right now--you are acting kind of stupid.

Or he's just having a mental break...not like a breakdown but just a time out. I've seen people post drunk and they make all sorts of spelling mistakes unless they're smart enough to do spell check, and spell check would fix the grammar thing, so I doubt he's drunk and spell checking.

well, in his op in this thread, he told me to fuck off as well, and then later said everyone else but me could fuck off. he's not in his right mind, for sure, and it's clear he's got some issues with booze...which only makes mental illness or what have you even worse. either way, regarding Sean, he took something Sean said, twisted it into a million crazy pieces and then lashed out. no idea why he did it the first time, lol

A while ago, I got into a debate with him when he started ranting about Big Brother existing in the U.S. because how closely he's monitored after being released from prison. I never found out what he went for prison for but then he said he's been suicidal at times out of regret for what he did. From then on, I decided just to lay off of him

i recently read a couple books that i enjoyed immensely while reading, but in the days and weeks after reading them i found myself in a serious funk. i was thinking about events long passed and was feeling incredibly depressed.....i attributed this to my recent increased rate of substance abuse and the usual fall blahs at first (i've got a touch of SAD) and tried to write it off as nothing more then that.

the thing is that i normally don't get near a mental breakdown because of those things (at least not in recent years as i've learned how to recognize the symptoms and stop it before it gets to far) and i do not normally advertise my pain.....so this was something different.

i felt as though there was a mental fishhook in the back of my mind and that it was slowly driving me crazy......whenever i had enough time to reflect on anything my thoughts always returned to james woods.....and i couldn't explain it. i talked to my family and friends (who already knew about his lack of treatment and eventual death) almost daily, always ending the line of conversation by saying "i don't know why jimmy is on my mind lately, let's talk about something else".

then, a few days ago, it hit me. certain passages in one of the books i had read (the shock doctrine) talk about how you scientifically break a man's resistance to speak out. i'd break it down for you but i'm unable to do it as aptly as the book already has.

the short version is how in the right conditions you can scientifically break someones desire to resist and decry inhumane conditions. this involves shocks (mostly mental) that include sensory deprivation/overload, lack of physical contact, constant harassment, the threat of harsh or lethal punishment if you make waves, etc.

while i was not subjected to the more extreme physical treatments of electroshock and drugging like many victims of this treatment have been throughout the world, many of the mentioned techniques have been employed within the prison system in one form or another for various reasons. helping to break a suspect, and insuring that the inmate population doesn't unite and forcibly demand better treatment are two of the most obvious reasons i can think of........but i'm starting to ramble.

with this newly gained knowledge i was forced to confront (although i didn't know it at first) the fact that i let a man slowly die in front of me for no reason besides the fact that i wanted out, and i wasn't willing to rock the boat (much) if it meant i had to do another day in prison.

i did talk to the medical staff about jimmy's rapidly failing condition and did tell them that he ought to be in a hospital instead of being neglected in a cell of concrete, but when they failed to act, i and others did nothing for fear of reprisal.......in short we all sold this man out because we wanted out and we weren't about to let the fact that a man was being slowly killed in front of us stop any of us from getting out of the hellhole we were in as quickly as possible.

as someone who has made their fair share of horrible mistakes but yet still believes in helping their fellow man, and doing the right thing this realization brought on incredible feelings of anger and guilt.....which brought on an incredible urge to drown my feelings in whatever i could.....which failed, and brought on further mental anguish.......which brought on the mental pants-shitting that i've displayed on these forums as of late.

so i've decided to do everything i can do to make sure justice is done for james (and hopefully all those who are destined to follow him). i'd like to say i'm committed to this cause for all the mistreated, and unjustly beaten down of the world but it's mostly about alleviating my profound sense of guilt, and to remind myself about how easily a decent and caring person can be transformed into a shocked shell of a man that cares for nothing but self preservation.

i don't know if i've done a good job of explaining where i was coming from and i doubt if most can relate to or really understand what i'm talking about and that's probably a good thing......but i'm sorry for allowing my personal issues to degrade this forum (which is usually pretty good at provoking thought) and for any and all personal attacks of any posters personal character.
