Escape

Every human being has a fear of escape and therefore also of flight. There are those who escape into drugs, which can be divided into hard and soft, cheap and expensive. Drugs offer nothing more than a few hours of escape, and beyond that, profit for a company or cartel. When used excessively, they lead to dependence on these companies, which, like all companies in the world, want people to be dependent on their product and thus a steady influx of money. The brewery dreams of a world of alcoholics. But if you are strong enough to resist this and face the world soberly and see it as it is, then you can put on two pairs of glasses, one called optimism and the other pessimism. The glasses can help you move in one direction, but if you take the third path, the path of the realist, you will see a path in the world that is neither optimistic nor pessimistic. Although it may seem thoroughly pessimistic. A way in which humans as a species can still save ourselves. You will find literature and people who show the way or who have specialized in areas to change the world realistically. When I reached this point, I saw the ways, then turned around and looked at the people, the “average.” Then came the depression. I wasn't strong enough to recognize its potential, although I still find it difficult, especially when reading the news and Lemmy entries. I was ready to say goodbye to this world and save myself like a rat from a sinking ship. Suicidal thoughts came and remained as the only way out of this realistic world. I checked myself in, took medication, and had magnetic resonance therapy for three months. These drugs were prescribed to me to help me endure this world and give me the strength not to want to escape, to want to change something, and to find people who want the same thing. Medication and therapy pulled me out of the vortex and made me stronger. I have the utmost respect for people who manage to do this without help and have this strength naturally. To come to terms with the world. I understand when people flee and choose to take their own lives; they are not to blame for their death, no, they just see no other option. You can't say that anyone is to blame, but you can say that society can take responsibility for their escape. People who are more than well off, while there are people who voluntarily choose death because of the actions and effects of others. To those who see the future realistically and have lost all hope, I can say one thing: Write down your thoughts, share them wherever and with whomever you can, read books or articles by realists and like-minded people. There don't even have to be solutions; it's enough to know that you are not alone with your thoughts and “predictions.” That's what helped me, which is why I wrote this article, even though it will probably never be seen by anyone.
