I often wonder if I am still alive. I figured out a solution.

Apparently, I am dead, and death is identical, or at least,  indiscernible from life, thus, it really doesn't matter. I stopped worrying about being dead.

It was the tragic post count crash of '06... Saint thought it would be a wise investment to put our post counts on the stock market... it was tragic... people were jumping off buildings, running the streets sreaming with their hands waving in the air, created groups of organized crime in the underground... total chaos ensued that day.... I still have a nervous twitch caused from "post count tramatic stress syndrom"... allthough I can't get a doctor to put me on disability for it.........

By "people", mission means "himself", as in "he was the only one jumping off buildings, running the streets, etc"
