Any of you all know what the word jaded means?

Jaded means to be influenced by something, or someone if your using it as a verb or adverb. As a noun it is a person of deceit or mistrust.

do you ever fully recover from being jaded? what if it affects you the rest of your life?

You're on the path to enlightenment.

You will get over all the shitty things happening in your life someday, and you will become a stronger person for it ... life goes on, continues, and you may feel jaded now but before you know it things will change, and time will pass, and you will be renewed.

At least that's what my totally naive, lack-of-experience, bullshit pathetic advice tells me to tell you.

Its gonna be okay brother. Hang in there

    I have been flying for over a week, spending a fortune on crap i do not need, even buying a few things twice because i forgot i had just bought them. luckily i stayed in the house most of the time although the dog must have thought i had lost my  mind. the crash started on Friday and is getting steadily worse - suicidal ideation is back after my first break from it for years. It is always worse...
