I've been in therapy for over 20 years but things keep getting worse, even though I take pretty much every antidepressant under the sun.

Not all people make it. Some are only here as a cautionary tale for others. I'm pretty sure I'm one of them.

I enjoy your posts. You have cute cats.

I'm kind of dumbstruck since I don't get a whole lot of positive interactions, so I needed some time to process. It's also hard for me to accept that anything positive could come from most of my doomposting and venting, but I did want to let you know that your comment touched my heart. Thank you.

Check out rejection sensitivity. 99% of shit is in our own heads. Maybe one actually sucks, but even that, they can lie to themself! 😂

Wrt to the doomposting. Caught up w a friend yesterday. Talking about hating reading news directly on sites without the social comments from these communities to yell angrily and validate we're not in our own vacuums. Thanks for making me feel less crazy and alone.

You’re welcome. Be kind to yourself and do your best, it’s hard out there.

Life is very hard and challanging but Your photos of your cats are very good.

I think that you didn't find the right method for you that works for your case, and not for n% of population. A change in treatment is needed.

I have snooped a bit and you said that you are interested history and archeaology. You could try to become IT help in some university so you could help with, for example Herculaneum Burned Scroll that need a lot of computers to unravel their mysteries. You have some skills and I am sure that some archeologist needs your skills to do their job well.

I believe that there is still hope for you.

If you perish, life will never improve. Self fulfilling prophecy.

The brave thing to do is to try to change for the better. Your life is yours to make into whatever you want it to be.

Anyone with ideations of self harm, please, I beg you, on behalf of everyone who loves you, live. Find someone to talk to, work through, around, over, under, whatever, but get around it somehow. Find a way. You are valued.
