RUFF THOUGHTS: “Avicii: True Stories”

I wanted to share this trailer for “AVICII: TRUE STORIES” because it may be a wake up call for others.

The documentary follows his journey as he rockets from dabbling with music to being the most popular DJ/Producer at the time. He enjoyed making music but he absolutely hated touring. 830 shows by age 28… out of pressure from fans, friends and managers. It made him seriously ill. As you most likely know, Avicci committed suicide.

There are a lot of good hearted people out there that do things for others despite their own likings. The pressure to do things so that you feel liked or a part of a community can be overwhelming.

Stop it. If you don’t want to go to every kink event, don’t. If you don’t want to be a part of a toxic group of people, don’t. If you’re tired of working to have the perfect body (to fit in), don’t.

You do you. Your own comfort and happiness is important.
