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.

I highly recommend a gigantic pot of chili. It might just be that I am highly food motivated, but during the winter I get enormous comfort out of having a warm bowl of beanis and rice waiting for me when the day is over.

And it freezes great!

Had a bowl of barley and mushroom soup last night, was really nice!

That sounds incredible. Do you have a recipe that you could send, or do you just wing it like I do?

I think my secret autism power might be that I can just grab spices off a rack and know they're going to taste good together. I LOVE hearing about other folks' recipes so I can learn more!

Eh we just wing it. Wish I had more direction to point you in

Fair enough! Barley + mushroom gives me some ideas. I'll let you know how it goes!

Chili sounds great! But I need some corn chips with it.
