@Kupiter_K Thank you, I appreciate all what you've said and I'm glad to hear you were able to overcome your depression.

[Sián @Knosstos]

My mind is completely burnt out and my body is starting to feel it. I'm trying not to give up but I can't keep up with this cadence, specially if there seems to be nothing at the end of it all.

Suicide is rearing it's ugly head yet again.

My strength has left me.

@Kupiter_K Battling with mental health issues for several years.

@Kupiter_K Exhaustion and the possibility of nothing coming out of it.

[Sián @Knosstos]

@kateofleninka I understand that. Specially the apprehension involved in opening oneself up for things such as love. I pray you overcome it. Poco a poco.

[Sián @Knosstos]

I wish I truly were Alyosha Karamazov.

@holyfaeri Good thing it's 9PM still

@kateofleninka @Keeshowbruh Question: do we have access to Valentinian hermeneutics or is it simply the group we have the most complete description of from their time?

[Sián @Knosstos]

@kateofleninka @Keeshowbruh I said laughable due to the remarks Plotinus makes in his polemic implying that just as they chose to come into the world they can leave. Besides that, it is unfortunate that we don't have access to their hermeneutics. Basilides' system is interesting even from what do we have.

@thisisninosway Something to meditate on, I guess

[Sián @Knosstos]

@thisisninosway I'll admit it is worldly thinking, yet, it is sometimes frustrating to have these responsibilities and - if you allow me to be dramatic - be tortured by them while these people might not ever think about us in any way

[Sián @Knosstos]

@lance_corporate Aside from him searching in the wrong place - these are indeed hard days.

@thaddeusthought I'm always astounded by his words, be it in books or recordings. They sound as if he were looking at the world today rather than 40ish years ago. What an insight he was granted.

[Sián @Knosstos]

@lovinqthelord I'm stealing that line, thank you 😂

[Sián @Knosstos]

@eikontheou May his memory be eternal.
I pray the Lord comforts you and his family.

[Sián @Knosstos]

Yet another month has come and gone, I have not done anything worthwhile and desperation is slowly consuming me. Must I do something about even if things might not change at all?
Help me most Holy Theotokos, cover me with your protective veil. Please.
