DaBlist Posted May 15, 2017 Report Share Posted May 15, 2017 Happy Five year anniversary to me. I cant believe that today marks Five years since I joined Ratsun! Due to PTSD and depression I went through a couple of years where I was drinking heavily and my head was definitely in a bad place and whislt not making any excuses or wanting to garner sympathy, it made me lash out at a lot of things and behave like a douche, including on here. Kicked my demons now, though like any good Aussie, still love my beer. Heres to Five (and many more) years. P.s. If you ever get diagnosed with any mental illness, dont be afriad to get help. Hiding it away and thinking you can ride it out wont do you any good. RW 5 Quote Link to comment

a.d._510_n_ok Posted May 15, 2017 Report Share Posted May 15, 2017 Where's Azn? I've met him myself. About five years ago I bent one of the swasi rims on my A10 and looked for someone online to straighten it. I found an ad that looked good, drove to the dude's shop, dropped the rim off and went for lunch. When I came back an hour or two later to pick the rim up I spied a set of big and little rims that looked a lot like 1983 Datsun 200sx wheels but turned out to be Delorean rims. My wife is a welder and spied some really funky looking modded equipment in his shop and the two talked quite a bit. He made his bucks in the oilfield, saved 'em and used the money to open his business and my wife built frac tanks for Haliburton so they spoke the same language. Dude knows his trade, loves his work and is not the silly sidekick that the show makes him out to be. I had no clue the dude was anybody until I watched the show for the first time a few weeks later. It's "reality" TV so I watched a few episodes but not many. 5 Quote Link to comment

DaBlist Posted May 15, 2017 Report Share Posted May 15, 2017 Tried this to post a youtube vid using{media]www.youtube.com/your-video[/media}method that was described here on Ratsun.What am I missing? Edit: Got it, Thanks RW! Quote Link to comment
Ratwagon1600 Posted May 15, 2017 Report Share Posted May 15, 2017 Tried this to post a youtube vid using{media]www.youtube.com/your-video[/media}method that was described here on Ratsun.What am I missing? Havent read the Ratsun reccomended method. What I Do is select the option in Youtube to email the vid to someone. I Then cut the link out of the email and paste it into the thread. There may be an easier way to post vids but this is what works for me. Quote Link to comment

Hiding it away and thinking you can ride it out wont do you any good. RW The way I look at it 80,000 years of evolution has resulted is our keen development of repression. Like 'fight or flight' response. Just bury it down inside good and deep and.... no problem. Quote Link to comment

When it surges it's all I can do to keep my head above water. I disappear off social media. I have to go technically dark when it happens. You'll see my activity on here change significantly based on what I'm doing. 2 Quote Link to comment
