People really do get off on watching you struggle. Know what it is? It’s the modern day version of gladiatorial contests. They get to watch the blood and gore then go home. I fucking FEEL this article. Two deployments, a divorce, addiction, prison, and several hospital stays, bankruptcy and foreclosure, and people get addicted to watching the shit like it’s a fucking cinematic event, forgetting you’re a real person trying to off yourself with pills.
