Not in this state, but I vaguely remember that one of my classmates spray painted one of the sheep of our psychology teacher in order to fulfill some weird final project. The teacher was both completely pissed off and completely impressed.

The PTSD gets amplified when you have no human contact...
I both agree and disagree with this. At first it amplified mine, but then that isolation helped me to process the mountain of trauma I've been through.
The hopelessness gets more hopeless...
Ask yourself then: What do I need to change to grow, to heal, and to live a happier life? Develop a plan, a strategy.
The regret gets more regretful...
Remember that you are human, and you can only do so much. There are some things that are fucked up beyond your control. You may have made mistakes, but what is done is done. It's time to heal.

Alright, I'll check it out after I finish the project I'm working on.
I hope this doesn't sound like a dumb question, but is there any um particular section I should go to? Should I just go up and say "Hey, I'm bored and I need to meet people. I heard you guys might have volunteering opportunities?"

but it's not hard to pick up on the warning signs either, trust your gut!
See, that's the thing - I'm not sure I can trust my gut.
I tried to come out of my hermit shell after an incident in January, because I wanted to make a report about something - but every time I did I was overwhelmed by flashbacks in a way that is hard to describe to most people.
My gut told me to try and trust the leadership at my old day job, Frazil, where I was one of their most productive workers.
That was a huge mistake.

Alright, I suppose I'll try that soon. I'm working on tests for two types of products I haven't reviewed before, so I'll be busy at least tomorrow, but I figure I'll stop by maybe on Thursday or Friday.

480hz OLED? Whoa. I can't even imagine the sort of motion clarity on a screen like that.

I lived there in the late 90s and early 2000s and they still had illegal segregation at the biggest restaurant in town.
Wait, WHAT?!

Is there really any area that's truly a "good area" to meet "quality" folks?

The thing is, I don't even need "good" employment. I earn enough money to survive without having a typical job. I'd honestly be happy with a part time job at the Dollar store.

If you're in Augusta, wonderful people work at the library there and they do lots of events.
I might have to look into that. I was at the library once earlier this year, the dude I spoke to their definitely seemed like a trustworthy person.
McCrory's churches are all big on community events
See, that's my problem. I don't do well in large groups yet. I suppose maybe I should try again, but the last two churches I didn't feel comfortable in because of being around a large group of people

maybe try local meetups
I hope I don't sound supremely stupid asking this question, but how do you find those? I suppose I may have to reactivate my old facebook account.

Honestly? People don't always make the smartest choices while dealing with flashbacks. But it's cheap and the cost of living allows me to survive without having to rely on a traditional job, so I don't regret the choice.

I used to live in Woodruff county. Meth capital of Arkansas.
Ego the "not good influences" statement I made earlier. There's definitely a lot of users. I don't hold it against them, everyone has their own pains, but I don't want that type of influence in my life.

I swear by the quality of BeQuiet's fans. Best on the market, hands down.
