Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.

As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.

Thank you and happy chatting!

Been dealing with depression lately. Anyone else feel like there's just...nothing for them? Anywhere? (hexbear.net)

No job prospects. The work I do to support myself is come and go, and im probably gonna miss rent again. The older I get, the less friends it seems I have. None of my hobbies/passions excite me right now and just feel like a pain in the dick when I think about doing them. Every day is the same goddamn routine unless I go stay at my partners place.

It's cold and I hate going out in the cold, so that just compounds stuff further. Everything is dead outside. I'm tired, im always so tired. I can never get enough sleep no matter how much I actually get.

Feels like I'm just existing and I hate it.

yuuuuup

no partner, community, or job and no way to get any of those without immense suffering and even if i tortured myself to try there's no reason to expect success. it's like a slot machine but you get a bone broken every time you pull the lever and the prize is still suffering under capitalism and all the other social ills marginalizing us.

What a good way of putting it. That really is what it seems like.

Yeah, I know I'll probably be more myself tomorrow, but for now it just fucking sucks

We could do a zoom call with people here to hang out and chat? Community is community...

opsec concerns aside, i'm the wrong king of neurodivergent for that.

i have some online friends and i cherish them but they are not adequate and hug.jpeg is not ~~une pipe~~ a hug
