Hi ya all! I feel kinda silly it took me a while until I even noticed this threat and reading it through it has moved me to tears. I seriously hope you guy all the best and keep on the fight. I remember I was young and down on my luck also and went through some tough times and lot of stress also. Losing my house, no work, no money, having to withdraw from my recording studio and all that stuff. The stress was unbearable I had to just go numb and rid of my emotions. I think that is somekind of psychological survival mechanism that kicks in at that stage. Memory of me walking down a dark and rainy street with nothing but my guitar and backback full of my stuff, wondering wtf to do is still fresh in my mind. Back then I was lucky I got a temp job that turned into a fulltime one later.
Freedom4all, are you a vet? I get that you are and have some scars. I am ex-military also but never been in actual combat. I hear a lot of people are being laid off from work in US and the jobs are truly hard to come by. I also hear that they manipulate the unemployment statistics by calculating one person working for two part -time jobs as two persons employed. And I heard that happens a lot.
