The 8th annual "What's wrong with UT" marathon, held every year at this time, ended suddenly today when I told everyone firmly that the session was over and thanks for their help but I was not going to participate in the discussion any longer.

The session was triply painful this year because I agreed that there are probably some big things wrong with me. At almost the same time, I described my life in terms of a slow, 30-year suicide whilst trying to make a point in a Facebook discussion. This convinced everyone that I might actually be suicidal, and this in turn permitted the session to go into long hours and hours of what is precisely wrong with me, and where everything went wrong.

Negotiations were held on who would pay to fix me and what the terms of that would be. The negotiations broke down when I refused to provide detailed reports on the steps I am taking to improve.
