This is so clever! I am definitely going to use your trick for my own crappy life circumstances. :)

That is an admirable coping strategy! I hope your third act starts soon.

That's actually really inspiring. I'm going to try it for myself too. :D Hang in there, OP. ♥

That's a wonderful way to look at hard times.

I love this secret and I love the picture you chose for it :)

this is clever. Keep at it, OP!

I hope you get your kick-ass third act soon! :-D

Good strategy, anon :)

This is a great way to look at things, and probably more accurate than you think. Here's to Act Three! :)

I hope things get better for you soon!

Good for you!!! I hope your fabulous third act begins soon! And if not, take heart in the fact that "Empire Strikes Back" is considered the best of the original trilogy. There's good to be found in every circumstance!

I agree with the other posters: it's a great coping strategy!

I hope your (and my) third act begins soon. ♥

You think that's dorky, I imagine that my life is a TV show and in an alternate universe fans are squeeing and making gifsets over the dramatic pain and suffering and so on.

It honest-to-god helped me with a terrible breakup recently to imagine the me/them shippers wailing and complaining and writing godawful fix-it fic, and all the me/everyone else shippers gloating and making fun of them.

I guess that's one thing my life has going for it: ship wars.

I've been going through a crappy couple of years myself and wish I had thought to do this. It sounds like an excellent coping strategy and I wish you luck.

My life has been really shitty lately and well, goddamnit, I really like this idea. Thank you so much, babe.

Good luck reaching your third act, OP, and may it be a much better one. :)

I completely agree with you. My OCD has flared up again after a big school-related rejection, and it's been driving me crazy since March. I was just thinking today at work about how in every superhero franchise, the hero has a period where his powers screw up and/or people turn against him and he's not sure he should be doing what he's doing and that's where I am right now.

So you're not alone in your feelings, OP! I'll pray for you and your family.

This is wonderful.

I'm sorry things are going so bad for you and hope you get your Ewok celebration at the end of your trilogy. Yub nub.

awww at this entire thread. I hope you emerge victorious, OP.

Thanks for this, OP. It's exactly what I needed to think about today. I hope your part three is awesome. <3

this is the most amazing and inspiring secret in a while. Go you, OP, and I sincerly hope you reach that third act soon (and that it's a long one, too!)

I've been right where you are, anon. It gets better. Just hang in there until the carbonite dissolves.

I suffered from OCD intrusive thoughts for a long time; I was convinced I was going to harm a child, even though I wasn't going to. It helped to imagine I was a character on a popular show or something and some fan was writing bad loli fic. I don't know why that helped, maybe transfer of responsibility or maybe just making the situation funny.
