im stuck. that’s what i am. people in this world are moving forward, doing something in their lives whether it makes them happy or not at least they have something to do. i on the other hand don’t. i don’t even have anything that brings me joy ffs. the things that I do are because everyone else is doing them. i study because everyone does, I make friends and try to talk to people because everybody does and I live because everybody does. but never once have I felt like I’m moving forward. i constantly feel like I’m in the same place I was before […]
I’m completely burned out on my current job, and it’s my only way to make any money. I’m just going to do just enough to cover rent for now.
The US job market is a mess rn. Unless you have a specification you’ve worked on through whatever means, you’re basically fucked.
You can’t try to do anything entry level because they’re paying way below the average wages (I’m seeing it for tech jobs, but I’m sure it’s like this everywhere because inflation and saving money and all that). It’s driving me mad, I can’t even walk into the place without feeling like shit just being there. The […]
The only things I feel strongly about are either impossible, or so loaded with negative consequences that it would be wrong to attempt them. There’s nothing else in life I really want, or care about. Nothing feels that meaningful.
I do the bare minimum that I feel is necessary to survive, because I’m scared of the finality of dying. Otherwise… nothing. I try to escape into fantasies or the stories of those who have more of a reason to live than I do.
Forcing myself to work feels like pulling teeth. It’s dull, but the pay’s fine, and I can work from home. It would be OK, […]
“Not all races of the Hyper Gantry share the the sentiments of the Great Engineers. They belive a race born in and of the dark can choose the light…Their futile hope in the entropic universe is as effective as your human emotion’s were to create a civilization. for good.”
The old Earth Archive media plays, a video from a house long ago:
A bear had broken in, the two children were the first to be taken out, the husband dead outside, she tries to fight it off with kitchen knives but its claws have her arm hacked to dangling flesh in a single blow. It pins her […]
I can’t keep doing this. The thoughts repeat over and over and over again and they’re so loud I can’t take it anymore, I feel like it’s all pressing against my skull and I’m going to explode. I can’t. Literally can’t. I really just don’t want […]
Sigh…this is the life the elites want for us peasants. Only they’re still trying to squeeze what little is left from us. Their greed knows no bounds. And their callous indifference to human life and human suffering knows no bounds. We are nothing more than workhorses that need to eat to them.
I am listening to some music. One of the few things I ‘enjoy.’
Some people can sing.
Others can draw/paint/etc.
So many ppl can do such amazing things.
Hell, so many random ppl on YT can do some amazing things.
WTF can I do? I’m not “amazing” at anything. I’m GOOD at A LOT of things but I’m not an expert at anything or have mastery of any single thing.
I’m “good” at things that aren’t exactly marketable in today’s society (and by marketable I don’t mean being good for a stupid 9-5 wage slave job). I’m good academically- in […]
I wrote a thoughtful and nuanced bit explaining about my struggle with obsession and anhedonia, pressed publish and bang, the whole thing was gone.
so this is the quick and dirty version. Yes, I see the irony of when I write about that my memory and attention are things I struggle with being followed by the entire piece being deleted and me feeling all the more isolated. Touche internet, quite a picante indictment of my illness and issues proceeding from it.

Nothing like being used by someone you were trying to help out then you realize they are abusive lazy pos with no accountability. More than that this world is shit. I tried to get a new relationship but i keep on meeting women that either want to cheat on their partners with me or i end up finding their personality repulsive.
Once again, drove to the office. Did not step foot in there. Went on another drive.
Wow am I fed up right now. I’ve completely lost the plot. Bought a lotto ticket. Won $2. Used it on a second one. Nothing. I hate gambling, but when things get to this degree, I’ve done it. Want to give in to the vices of alcohol and gambling to try to feel better, but of course, it’s the wrong thing to do in a situation like this. Which is why I avoid it.
If I can’t find a job that pays more, it’s pointless. I’m a bit desperate […]
It’s been a while for me here. I always somehow find myself here again. I don’t think I am actively suicidal anymore, but I never am happy or ok either. I graduated from uni earlier this year and life feels even more empty. I thought to myself, trying to console it, that I do have a chance now. I have good friends, enough creativity, some sort of motive and means to get out of this shithole and find a life. But the world isn’t good enough. even if i decide to live, actually live, the world isn’t worth living in. It’s all a game to […]
As the Borg in Star Trek is infamous for saying “Resistance is Futile.”
It seems trying to resist the systems that keep us down and poor and trapped is like sinking deeper into quicksand. The harder you try, the more you sink.
I’m so tired of trying and never getting anywhere. And that was back when I *was* healthy and worked 120-180hr/week jobs.
Life feels so damn hopeless.
theres nothing left. im not anything anymore. what do i even do. there isnt a me that can get better. there isnt a way that i can. im tired.
I DONT WANT TO KILL MYSELF BUT I DONT WANNA FEEL THIS WAY! Life just feels rough, im tried, its constant pain and the one person I want to be there for me? Just isn’t, it feels one sided, I wait for the phone to ring for a person who i don’t know when they’ll call if they will, im in love and want to spend my life with said person but it feels pointless, im scared they’ve found someone knew, well, they say it isn’t like that. But that isnt easying the pain, or what I’m being told. Its been 5 years i trust […]
Couldn’t even step into the office. This is happening more and more lately.
I’ve lost it. There’s a mall not far from where I’m at. I’m just aimlessly walking. People work, and some may hate their jobs, but they suck it up and do it. Why can’t I? I haven’t been working that much at all, and at this point I don’t know what else to do. I just need to start something different and fast.
I’m at such a loss.
I feel so stuck.
I’ve been so depressed lately. I hate being alone because that means I have no one to talk to when I feel this way. I don’t have real friends to talk to. I have online “friends” but I don’t trust them enough to tell them how I feel. I don’t want to “vent” to my followers either because I know they don’t care. I’d just make them uncomfortable.
I can’t talk to my parents because they’re not that kind of parents. And I obviously don’t have a therapist to talk to. I’m not going to fuck with the suicide hotline either—I don’t want to get thrown […]
Are you ready to die if it were to happen without killing your self?
Anyone got any ideas on how to make extra money via non traditional means? ie not via regular jobs.
YouTuber- BUT I don’t want to expose my face, so that limits both what kind of content I can create and income potential. Hell, I wouldn’t even know what kind of content to create. I’m not good with computer stuff, video editing, don’t have a good voice…. So…YouTuber probably not really for me unless I can find what content I can do without exposing my face that will draw a good size audience worth the time. We only obviously see YouTubers who […]
I wish I was worse at getting out of bed….. and I’m not good at it. Lately I’ve been sleeping until noon, then I’m up until about 1 AM, wash rinse repeat. So that’s 11 hours a day asleep, and I prefer it, turns out
Today I was supposed to have a therapy appointment, and so I woke up at 8 AM. This was after waking up at least twice in the night, and every single time after a nightmare… so I dragged out of bed, got ready and drove to the appointment. Any other day, that’d be it, the sum of the misery associated with […]
Wouldn’t it be nice if @mindlessgamer got a better job and pay and didn’t have to work at his shit call center anymore? How much of his depression would *instantly* be lifted if he just had a better job with better pay?
Wouldn’t it be nice @heartlessviking could move into a nice house by a lake in Michigan or Canada where it’s nice and cold, where he can take walks in the nature with his dog? How much of his depression would lift if he could move away from a crappy hot humid state to one that was nicer?
Wouldn’t it be nice […]
