You’ve been really active here! That’s great. Nice to have people shaking up the place.
Now, to your question: pissed off and dangerously on the edge of blowing, with no apparent reason.
Thanks qyron! How longs the pissed off feeling been going on?
Not long enough to be worrisome.
That’s good. Lean on us, we got you
Not great.
Last night my house flooded and I’m still cleaning up water and nasty shit. Everything smells like piss.
It triggered a fight over the fact that I still don’t have a full time job despite months of looking, and we are stuck in this place until I find something better than 3rd party labor.
My vehicle is leaking gasoline while running and the shocks are fucked but I can’t afford to fix it. My wife’s vehicle needs transmission work.
Also… gestures wildly around the US
Depression is a bitch and I don’t have insurance to go to a therapist or get my broken tooth fixed.
So yeah. Not great.
Damn dude, life is kicking you while you’re down, I’m sorry. Keep your head held high whenever you can.
I’m mixed.
I’ve had depression off and on, it cleared up early last week but came back this weekend.
I went to a friend’s and we went for a walk and played Uno with their kids and it made me feel a bit better, but I spent most of the weekend just laying in bed.
I’m stressed about Canada’s election. And the tariff mayhem and how that’s going to affect my job. I tried diversifying my finances, but seeing my assets drop hurts.
My wife is starting a new diet with her gym, so she’s doing all the cooking lately and honestly I’m missing that creative outlet.
I don’t know, just a lot of headwinds right now. I’ve been very lucky, but it’s rough out there.
You’ve got a lot going on from day to day food to finances to the bigger picture of politics. It’s bound to ground you down.
Can‘t recover from the death of my cat in october. It totally devastated me.
I feel you, my cat died August ‘23 and I am still having a rough time. I have since adopted two kittens and I love them both so much, but I really miss Polly.
I hope it gets better for you.
If you have some spare time, you might try visiting an animal shelter, just to give the animals there some playtime and affection. We are much longer-lived than our pets, and it’s our responsibility to make sure they have the best lives possible. I bet you did that for your kitty, and they were thankful for it.
She was my best buddy for 24 years. I‘ve rescued a kitten already and my now older cat is the best mother she could be.
The next shelter is a bit far away, though, so i am not that often there as i used to be
Remember when Elmo asked and everyone dumped their collective grief him? Ya, it’s only gotten far worse.
I’m so fucking tired
I made a phone call. I’m proud of myself.
That’s not easy! Sometimes the smallest thing can be the biggest mountain. You’ve done great 👌
Discovered my young daughter is self harming so really not great at the moment.
you can’t make me, and, doesn’t matter anyhow. Reading the news is enough to give you depression, and no amount of sunny disposition is going to make the next four years of existing any less shit. Assuming it ends in four years at all.
I’m at the point even my anger and sadness got bored and fucked off and I just don’t really feel or think at all.
And that’s what’s fucking scary to me.
Being desperate and sicker was worse physically and exhausting, but at least I believed in something. Now I just don’t fucking care.
Better than usual. Which is not saying much, since I’ve had suicidal thoughts almost every day despite all the therapy and meds. But I did an hour of work today on a project that was due May 2024 (now trying for the 2025 deadline), which is more than most weeks of the past 9 months. I’ve been keeping myself from new Linux installs and other major time sinks for all that time, hoping I’d find a miracle cure. But nope, looks like I’ll have to fight my inattentiveness and depression the hard way. At least I’m motivated to finish the project so I can get my laptop running the way I want.
What’s the project?
Bachelor’s thesis
In the dumpster, six days ago i was involved in a pretty severe work related accident which landed me in the hospital. Crushed right leg plus three broken ribs and a collapsed lung. So my mental health is rough right now.
Take that company for everything you can dude. If they are like 99% of companies they will try to limit things you are entitled to. Might even want to talk to a lawyer.
My union (Dansk Metal) is taking the case and theyll drag everyone through hell and back, so no worry. Dansk Metal is one of the most powerful unions in Denmark and will stop at nothing.
Between Tai Chi and meditation and yoga and resistance exercise and hiking, and better eating habits to stabilize blood sugar and overall health… everything is fine. Things are chaotic online, but people in the real world are happy and cordial around me and are living their lives all the same. Another thing that helped was not being chronically online. Looking at Lemmy/Reddit/etc/etc every day is depressing. Turns out tuning out more often increases mental health for me.
Awful, depressed, worthless, financially ruined. Currently sitting on my friends couch after sleeping here because my wife and I had the worst fight we ever had over the past 2 days, and I don’t we will recover as we both decided it’s probably best to just part ways but not sure how to make that work yet due to kids and schedules. This is a fun weekend…
Am adhd and autistic, so i never had a lot of friends, but i kind of learned to keep going with it.
Right now, i am very tired, but also hopeful because all my essay writing training is starting to show up.
My dreams, such as writing novels and creating an entire video game about my personal universe, seem to be more and more feasible on reality.
Also, my social training allowed me to meet some very nice persons, not in social standarts, but genuinely for me.
So I am as always lonely, tired and silent, but the world seem always to show more and more colours to me, which is nice.
(also maybe just because i stopped drinking the social media crap and the worldnews junk food, but hey, it’s what gives us the most anxiety for no reason, so why bother)
