Noa, thanks for your response to my post re:
Serzone. I've been reading the board and came
upon this thread. I think I know what your place
looked like. I have a very small house, I have
not permitted entry to anyone in about 10 years.
It's sad. I used to clean and have people over
for dinner. Even had a party once. That seems
like a lifetime ago. Now I live in a dark cave,
the blinds always closed. Cat hair and cobwebs
everywhere. My plumbing is in disrepair. I have
to close the water valve in the basement to stop
the leaking faucets. The ceilings are cracked
and falling in on me. A few years ago I did not
clean my cat's litter for several months. She
decided to do her business in the spare bedroom.
That door has not been opened since. I'd need a
biohazard suit to go in there. The exterior isn't
any better. I manage to keep the lawn mowed most
of the time and I shovel the sidewalks to avoid
being fined. Beyond that, it's just a matter of
time til the neighbors call the authorities.
Depression sucks. When anyone knocks on my door
I freeze and wait for them to go away. It's like
I'm a criminal or something.BTW, I made it thru the day. Now I'll try to make
it thru the night. Like Michael, I have weapons,
and I feel a desire to handle the one I've chosen
as my means of exit. So simple, so quick, forever.
