Also, good morning.
While the forum and underlying server here are capable of supporting far more than that, upwards of several thousand, the practices from CF are being largely maintained and the thread is rotated at page 500. This is done by locking the old thread and starting a new one to serve the same purpose.

Thought so. Didn't want to go off my own assumptions though, because you know what they say. Assuming makes an ass out of you and me.

From now on I will fight it with every bit of strength I have, I will not go down without kicking and screaming!
That's good for you, but if it's such a major thing, you might need therapy. I'm no psychologist, but it doesn't seem like something you could do on your own.

Outside help has done jack shit for me.
This is exactly something that I need to do myself, and I cannot, WILL NOT, let myself grow complacent.

Well why dont you start doing something then? If you have all that... idk, rage, sadness, whatever, use it as energy for a task that you enjoy. Take up a competitive game, or martial arts, or something that you enjoy, and use those emotions as energy.

Good. Now over the course of the next month, live up to it. Actions speak louder than words. Prove yourself to be a better person, who isn't going to let trivial things get him down.
It will take time for people's views of you to turn around, don't get discouraged if they continue to treat you the same way as usual at first.

I've noticed also that listening to music gives me strength, so I'm doing a lot more of that.

I'm waiting for steam support for my modding files from the workshop for reassembly.

No, no... Something that's knee-jerk reaction inducing. Shock yourself into forgetting what caused the pain in the first place. Works for me. Same with the music thing. That's a great start.

Make a fighter character, take skills/feats whatever to let him cast low level spells. Wield a wizard staff as your primary and wear robes, hide sword under robes. Make a big show of being the party wizard, flashy spells, lots of bluffs, the like. When somebody decides that you're an actual wizard and tries to get close before you start hurling fireballs, pull out your sword and gut him like a pig.

This is the greatest idea possible and I must do this eventually.

And I must actually play DnD at all ever eventually.
