Full disclosure: my thoughts on yurt living are simply the result of my own personal experiences of wretched suffering. Your experiences of wretched suffering may vary.

What’s It Like To Go Crazy
I went mad once. I even was institutionalized and put under anti-psychotics. I was conscious of it, at first, I guess it was because I’m introverted. I noticed my mind was working awkwardly, logical actions started to seem illogical. Things like Why am I stuck in this line when I could just walk over that table and get to the door?

Confessions of a Male Domestic Violence Survivor
How long were you together when the physical abuse began and what did she do?
The physical abuse didn’t really start until a few years into the relationship. In retrospect, I can honestly see that it went in stages of her seeing how much she could get away with.
First, it started with constant criticism, then it turned to controlling my actions; who I could and couldn’t see, what I could do in my spare time etc… then it turned into verbal abuse and bullying and then finally it turned into regular physical violence.

Confessions Of A Former Armored Truck Driver
How big is the risk? Is there a rough estimate on how big the risk is of being robbed?
Messengers being shot in the back of the head while loading cash into ATM is a common thing. Granted, your head needs to be on a swivel. If you allow someone to walk up on you like that…. that’s essentially you signing your own death certificate.

Ramblings From The BIID (Body Integrity Identity Disorder) Community
1. I want my left foot gone. There’s a distinct line where I feel the stump should end. My foot feels like it’s supposed to be there, but at the same time it’s not. My foot, ankle or the lower half of my shin will tingle or hurt sometimes. Every day, I wake up and think: “Damn it, my foot is still attached to my body”.

8 People Reveal The Benefits They See From Practicing Meditation
1. The absolute best benefit is that I notice, within myself, when negative thoughts or emotions are arising.
I can see them before they get out of control, observe them and their causes, and adjust. I can think critically and evaluate my options before acting hastily.
Likewise, when somebody says something that upsets me, I don’t just react. I stop to observe it’s effects on me, think about why it affects me like that, and then consider the intention of the speaker. This helps me avoid unnecessary conflict due to misunderstanding.

6 Salesman Reveal The Best Salesman They Ever Been Around
1. The best salesperson I know is the owner of the company I’m at now. This is what I’ll say about him.
His sales technique is okay. He asks decent questions, doesn’t spend a ton of time expanding on pain points, and can even be sometimes annoying when talking to a prospect (he’s old and likes to knowledge dump).
But the reason he is so good at sales, is because he is wildly popular, and even more passionate about the product. If you’re in our industry, you know him. He’s a magnificent networker and very enthusiastic. Because of that, he doesn’t have to focus so much on technique. He has friends and referral partners that believe in the product as much as he does, and this translates to the customer.

11 People Who Gave Up On Their Dreams Reveal Whether Or Not They Regret Their Decision
1. Honestly turned out great. I realised my band wasn’t going to get a record deal after a few years and then after playing for other peoples bands for a while it starred to become less fun.
I got a ‘proper’ job, started working on my career and used my new spare time to start playing rugby again. Now I’ve got a really good job in a sector I enjoy working in, married, kids, nice house all that stuff and I still play rugby on Saturdays (pre pandemic) to keep things a little different as well as keeping in shape.
16 People Describe What A Dead Body Smell Like
1. “Understand that a pound or two of rotten meat only gives you a faint whiff of the smell of a full-grown corpse. The power of the smell is incredible. Personally, I’m not sure it’s describable. You want to gag when you’re fifty feet away. It can take years for the smell to leave a house. It just lingers in the background. Cars are totalled by the insurance company for the odor. And the guy driving the wrecker can’t drive fast enough to get away from the smell.
