Sad scene that. I was like that in real life when my grandad died. When I was at my nans I never sat in his old chair, it didn’t feel right. I’d sit somewhere else and find myself looking at his chair and his little table where he’d keep his remotes and his radio times
i listened to him read his book on audible only a couple months back (highly recommend it) and i was left thinking, how long can this guy have left. his addication has been essentially his entire life, from a teen to now, and it's crazy, something like 50 pills a day.
Can see it going that way for sure, it's a very candid view of addiction and I think anyone who hasn't had to deal with that could see it as very self pitying.Whilst it has a high rating on Audible, the people who have taken time to write reviews generally pan it saying he spends his time wallowing in self-pity and blaming everyone else... Will see what @SixTwoSix thinks of it.
No wya he blames anyone else. Not what I took from it at all. He may blame events, or say these events triggered this reaction, but he doesn't go blame Julia Roberts for instance for breaking up with him.Whilst it has a high rating on Audible, the people who have taken time to write reviews generally pan it saying he spends his time wallowing in self-pity and blaming everyone else...

Unfortunately not enough of us actually do ask "How you doin" and even more unfortunately when asked the stock answer is mostly "alright" even when it shouldn't be. I watched the reunion thing and felt quite sad for him, even in that he often looked a bit out of place.Unfortunatley so
RIP
Was fantastic as chandler and the friends reunion thing did paint a bit of a darker past for him.
Also goes to show that no matter how much money someone has they might still not be able to get the help/support they need.
Apparently we men do hide how were really feeling and dont really talk much about things affecting us
When was the last time you asked a friend ... hey... how you doing

Sometimes this is because nobody has listened to you when asking for help, or noticed that you need help and tried to provider support.
I remember hearing if you really want to know, you have to ask three times. Tbh, this could just really annoy some people though./ "Well, I was fine, then you kept asking me the same question and now I'm annoyed!"
Tbf, "Surviving" sounds more like a 'comedic' answer to me, if you know what I mean? We're all surviving after all. I mean, you might ask someone how they are that's just been hit by a car and they're bleeding very badly and they might not be surviving... but...
Hmmm.... not sure that's very accurate.
This is what he wanted to be remembered for the most.

I do remember someone once replied something like 'not so good' and tbh I didn't pick up on it and they called me on it. So grateful they did. It kind of made me treat "How are things?" like an actual question that I want to know the answer to, rather than just a casual greeting.
