Completely agree with your post. None of us would be here if we had active social lives that used up the majority of our free time. Well, maybe Faux would, but for completely different reasons ;-). It's strange, as recently as 2004-early '05 I was a complete social butterfly, ALWAYS out doing SOMETHING, phone ringing off the hook etc. Then....something changed.

I congratulate you for keeping busy rather than throwing a constant pity party, it is the wise choice in a shitty situation. You're right about the exercise thing; I frequently get on the bench/treadmill/eliptical machine/etc until I am so tired I am not bothered by bad emotions, I just want to rest.

Relationships are doomed to fail, it is Entropy in plain sight, everything & everyone moving further away from one another.

Best advice ever. Between 2005 and 2007 I was basically a terminal alcoholic. I'm talking staggering home from the store at 8am to continue drinking from the night before, falling down and injuring myself, etc. It made everything exponentially worse. SO awful. Thinking about it in retrospect makes me both both ashamed and terrified that I am capable of sinking so low (again), DON'T GO THIS ROUTE...
