Hi mate, just saw your posting again. Bloody terrible from all sides.My mother died of apparent accidental suicide on Sunday aged 66. She was caring for 2 of my adult brothers (mid to late thirties), one with severe mental health issues and the other similar but also raging alcoholic, in and out of rehab. Their Psych says to be prepared for them not to make it - saw him yesterday to make a plan but he was shocked by mums plight. I have my own young family to look after so can’t do a lot (and it’s hard to grieve worrying about so much shit) but we’ll see how this NDIS thing goes and assisting living etc. Brothers are raiders fans but mum supported both Tigers / raiders. Don’t know why I am sharing here but there you go.
There are no failures, only lessons.Just a tinsy story of hope.
"At age 17, she was rejected from college.
At age 25, her mother died from disease.
At age 26, she moved to Portugal to teach English.
At age 27, she got married.
Her husband abused her. Despite this, her daughter was born.
At age 28, she got divorced and was diagnosed with severe depression.
At age 29, she was a single mother living on welfare.
At age 30, she didn't want to be on this earth.
But, she directed all her passion into doing the one thing she could do better than anyone else.
And that was writing.
At age 31, she finally published her first book.
At age 35, she had released 4 books, and was named Author of the Year.
At age 42, she sold 11 million copies of her new book, on the first day of release.
This woman is J.K. Rowling. Remember how she considered suicide at age 30?
Today, Harry Potter is a global brand worth more than $15 billion dollars.
Never give up. Believe in yourself. Be passionate. Work hard. It’s never too late.
She is J.K. Rowling"
Be strong.
Be you.
So there's hope for Balmain Boy?There are no failures, only lessons.
I reinvented myself at 40. It's never too late.

Sounds about right. They want you being productive until you're in the ground.
My Dad is 76 and still works. Not out of necessity it keeps his mind sharp.Sounds about right. They want you being productive until you're in the ground.

Having employment that allows you to do that is great as well you dunce.
Hope you're doing well.F*ck you schizophrenia. I wish you were a person so I could smash your face in!! You're not winning this battle even though you have robbed me of everything I once enjoyed.
Man ,some people don’t earn enough to save , nor are given the tools on how to in the first place . Not to mention , usually , they have a lower IQ so many of the higher paying jobs are simply out of reach for them .It does help having a job. It also helps making an effort. It's probably a good idea not to worry about what "they" want you to do as well.
Or you can get all angry at the world. Your choice.
Another terrible disease... I've very little knowledge on it other than having a neighbour once suffering from it... Meds made him better but awful side effectsF*ck you schizophrenia. I wish you were a person so I could smash your face in!! You're not winning this battle even though you have robbed me of everything I once enjoyed.
