Disturbing Text Messages From Disturbed Friends.

This is a thread I want back, but it screwed up my day, and my empathy for his traumatic self pity party has about run it's course.

This "Oh won't you please stop me from self-destructing." thing is borderline and a little feminine - like a passive-aggressive drama queen, of any gender, but im genuinely wondering if he's serious. Kinda like wolf cries with a little bit of emotional blackmail reading it.

Worth noting, is he's a self-proclaimed "satanist," which factors into this more than you'd think. Especially all the spiteful pride shit he did deliberately to keep himself alone - for control. No letting anything not dictated by him happen. Now, I'm wondering if the deprivation psychologically split his mind in a dissociative or even "demonic" way somewhere along the lines.

Freedom of religion is a right, so not going to judge.
However Crowley & Parsons stuff did not end well. Have run across more than a few folks who kept leaning towards the dark stuff. Problem is not everyone is cut out for it. It's a very fine balance that most can't achieve. You are absolutely going to have to "pay that piper" the real problem being if you've been 1/2 @zzing it & not good at the dark side was it really worth it? You're going to pay the same price if your 100% at it or sucky at it. 

Now I'm NOT encouraging anyone go this route, but if you aren't going to do the work, the education needed then you're just wrapping yourself in the trappings like THAT'S gonna work! Usually not, people end up miserable. Just as miserable as what they used the Dark Side to run away from.

* note;
Crowley & Parsons were actually using old Summerian stuff, same as Russell Targ an the guys at Sandia so not exactly "Satanic". A distinction most hobbiest self proclaimed satanists are clueless about. DUH!!!

Because being a self proclaimed @zz-hat my first inclination is to challenge them to show me what ya got! Usually they got nada. Which they have to face right there, right then. 
They may be able to impress a less knowledgeble crowd but not anyone who isn't door stop stupid. 

Despite your frustration with your friend's behavior people "get stuck" in loops an just need a push to right themselves. Or more time to finally hit their own personal rock bottom. Call your friend on their "snip" an give them a choice. 
Ya never know.
