I'm probably going nuts here, but at the moment, can't say i really care.

Do you people think it's possible to escape reality somehow? To get away from all the pain life causes?
And if you do, how? How can you escape?

Is it possible to push all troubles away, in your mind? To forget about bad stuff that happenend?

Alcohol?

I seem to be quite good at pushing away all bad thoughts, actually (without the use of alcohol or drugs). I don't know exactly how I do it, and it doesn't work all the time (sometimes it can hit home) but most of the time I manage.

Don't push, though the laws of metaphysics pushing these thoughts away will only bring them closers thus defeating the purpose. Instead attempt to grab these thoughts and actually look at them. A lot of times this will kill them at least it works for me. Then again I'm a sociopath in progress...
Oh,well.

You have to replace bad memories with good ones, go out and do something dont dwell on the past...

That or Jack Daniels, whichever is quicker.

Embrace reality. Live it completely. Find out why things happen, and then act to make good things happen to you.

Let me tell you something if you think you have hit rock bottom, well rock bottom is a fuking myth made up by a dreamer. You will just keep getting deeper and deeper on step forward two steps back.

The only way to escape reality is drugs.....or porn.....or video games.

Try all three, it's fun.

You could go into a coma? There is always suicide? And...drugs...but in the end drugs make life worse. So I would recommend the coma one.

Why do things happen?
It's called causation. Generally speaking it is the interaction of objects. On top of causation there is a small layer where human volition comes in.

Nah, it comes in moods..
At times, it all just seems like I can handle it all, that it will get better somehow. And then there's the dark moods, when you want it all just to end..
