[QUOTE="nlj, post: 630631, member: 17650"] Yes, that has been true for me too. It has also stopped me making assumptions about other people, I never look at a family group and think they look like a 'perfect family'. I always wonder what truths lie below the surface and what troubles they have had or have yet to come. I'm far more realistic and cynical about life in general, I often feel like I've had enough of life really and wouldn't be too sorry if it came to an end. Sometimes it just feels like a tough survival course that would be easy to drop out of and not finish because it's not worth the effort. I say "whatever" a lot more than I used to, as a response to things that used to generate a lot more emotion than "whatever". I take a lot more interest in homeless people and buskers and such and buy them coffees and don't judge them. I also wonder where their mothers are. I've become an expert in all the possible cures for insomnia. [/QUOTE]
