Sometimes, getting up in the morning and brushing your teeth is the hardest part of the day - it all just hurts.

Mama: But something might happen. Something that might change everything. Who knows what it might be, but it might be worth waiting for! {Jessie doesn't respond.} Try if for two more weeks. Jessie:...

Share, share, share your experience, feelings, anxiety.

If your mental health is sound, then when disturbances come, you will have some distress but quickly recover.

Veeva should count her blessings. Three years ago it was cocaine and a year ago it was crack and lemme tell you, that stuff you got to have. You do anything for that high. He laughed again, savoring...

I almost wish I had cancer. Then I'd either beat it or die from it. But my disease, even if successfully treated, will never go away. And it might not kill me. But it will hang over me like the blade...

You who understand what a human mind can be, how can you bear it? I don't have the hundredth part of your mind and there are days when I think I'll go mad. I can feel it. Or hear it. It's more like...

Debbie Downer was one of the few sketches where I broke, and I remember watching Horatio Sanz laugh so hard that tears squirted out of his eyes. I still believe that sketch may be a cure for low-level...
