    That’s the only logical fucking thing - you wanna fuck, you have sex, you feel good. How fuck the won’t that solve anything??

      So… I’m not an expert on the brain, but I love to read about mental health, and I’ve learnt that the brain craves that level of stimulation when things aren’t right (outside, inside, or both). It may be an addiction, a cope for depression, hormonal imbalances, etc. Maybe many things at once. But I assure you the solution to boredom, the craves, the feeling of nothing being enough, and more, is not sex (not even relationships, although they might help when you’re in your way to recovery).

      Seeking a good health (mental and physical) is all we can do to feel good at the individual level, honestly. All other paths (fame, power, sex, drugs…) are really traps, or that has been my experience and the conclusion I also reach from my readings. I know it’s not easy, not only emotionally but also on other aspects (money, finding the problems, finding solutions or treatments, etc.), but it’s a bet you can place outside the Kurt Cobain option. I really think it’s worth the tries (in plural, probably).
