[Setting: A grand debate stage in the heart of Eternia, adorned with flags and filled with a buzzing crowd. Scyther and Skeletor stand at podiums, ready to engage in a battle of words and wit.]

[Intro Music Starts]

Moderator: “Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Eternia Presidential Debate! In this corner, we have the incumbent President Skeletor, seeking re-election. And in the opposite corner, challenger Scyther, presenting a fresh vision for our realm. Let the debate begin!”

[Round 1 – Economic Policy]

Skeletor: “Yo, I’ve kept Eternia strong, economy’s on fleek,
Cutting taxes, boosting jobs, that’s how I speak.
Scyther, you’re green with envy, can’t handle my plans,
I’ve built this economy with my own two bony hands!”

Scyther: “Ah, Skeletor, your economy’s a mess, a disaster,
Tariffs and trade wars, hurting every worker and master.
I’ll innovate, elevate, small businesses I’ll empower,
A new economic dawn, where every Eternian can flower!”

[Round 2 – Healthcare Reform]

Scyther: “Healthcare’s a right, not a privilege, let’s make it clear,
Under my watch, every citizen’s health will be near.
Affordable care, coverage for all, no one left behind,
While you, Skeletor, leave our people in a bind.”

Skeletor: “You think you’re the cure? Ha, you’re just a pest,
My healthcare plan’s solid, it’s truly the best.
Pre-existing conditions? Covered, no fuss,
You can’t match my policies, Scyther, don’t fuss.”

[Round 3 – Environmental Policy]

Skeletor: “I protect Eternia, its lands and its skies,
My environmental record? Oh, it surely flies.
Clean air, clean water, I’ve got it all in check,
Unlike Scyther here, who’s all talk, just a wreck.”

Scyther: “Skeletor, your policies, they reek of decay,
Our forests, our oceans, you’ve led them astray.
I’ll champion green tech, renewable energy so grand,
Saving our planet, it’s time to take a stand!”

[Round 4 – National Security]

Scyther: “On the global stage, I’ll forge alliances so strong,
With diplomacy and grace, I’ll right any wrong.
Skeletor’s saber-rattling, it’s a dangerous game,
With me as president, Eternia’s honor I’ll reclaim.”

Skeletor: “Alliances? Ha! They’ll crumble under your reign,
I’ve kept Eternia safe, that’s not just a plain.
Strong borders, strong defense, that’s how I roll,
Scyther, you’re weak, you’ll never reach my goal!”

[Final Round – Closing Statements]

Moderator: “Final words, candidates, to sway the hearts of Eternians!”

Skeletor: “Eternians, I’ve led with strength, wisdom, and might,
Re-elect me, and together, we’ll continue our flight.
To greatness, to glory, to a future so bright,
Skeletor’s the name, Eternia’s beacon of light!”

I’m going to be 20 and my mental health has definitely improved in the past few years but I HAVE been su***dal since I was 10 and as hard as I try I can’t stop the su***dal thoughts. I know I need therapy because the medications barely helped. The truth is that it’s been so long since I’ve had the thoughts that they feel like they’re just part of my brain chemistry now. It sort of feels like being able to read – you can’t just unlearn how to read, if you see words you’re going to automatically read them in a sense, and that’s how it feels like with the thoughts. They just keep coming. I don’t know if even therapy will make them ever go away. I’m scared and I’m tired and I wish I had received help sooner before an entire decade went by. Maybe I wouldn’t have those thoughts now if I had gotten help sooner. But this country doesn’t want you to talk about that. I just have to deal with my broken brain for the rest of my life. I’m trying hard to want to live, to actually live, but my mental health is taking a huge toll on my body and I have too many health issues because of that, which is obviously making life harder. I wish I could take a break from life to just relax and work on my mental health for an entire year, maybe 2 years. But that’s not how it works here. I’m just so exhausted. Even my headmates are missing, they don’t talk to me anymore. I can’t feel them there anymore and I wish they were back. It felt better when I wasn’t alone in my head.
