I’ve come back to check your profile a few times since you posted, happy to see this comment :)

The replies have grown too since then, I see a lot of good advice and folks who are rooting for you!

I’ll add to this because I haven’t seen it mentioned… the fact that you posted here at all is telling. I’m no expert in this subject but isn’t reaching out for help a pretty strong indicator that you don’t want to do it, you’re looking for reasons to go on? Like, nobody really wants to, but sometimes the pain of life is just too much and people feel like they can’t take it anymore. So it’s not that you want to die, is that you don’t want to feel such pain. I’m sorry you’re feeling that way, stranger.

22 is rough. I’m 36 and me and all my friends agree that early to mid 20s were by far the most turbulent time of our lives, emotionally. I hope you’re able to make it to the better years ahead.

Completely reasonable arguments and not at all “both sides bullshit”…

Both sides bullshit is when someone is using that argument to imply that “both are bad so it doesn’t matter” or “x is bad so y isn’t such a bad choice”

You said none of that and just commented, very reasonably, that both of these guys are too fucking old to run a country. Idk why Lemmies seem to see everything in black and white… I’ll vote blue as well, but not because I think Biden is an excellent choice.

Have you tried any of the remote options like betterhelp or similar? I have a buddy who is employed through one of these platforms, the flexibility for both client and therapist seems really great. It’s not at all a case of having sub-par professionals on these sites, if that’s a concern.

If you simply prefer in-person, that’s understandable too. Just know that the options are out there, location shouldn’t limit someone’s therapy options in 2024.

Just wanted to stop back to this post real quick and let you know that this has been my phone background for the last 18 days and it’s great.

That’s all, have a great day and keep shootin!

Nice that he calls users to Lemmy at the end!

That’s really incredible, I love the deep reds and the contrast between the drop and background. Then of course there’s the capture of this millisecond of time that manages to convey emotion and elegance, somehow.

You wouldn’t happen to be an otter, would you? No judgement either way, just curious.
