There is way more suffering in life than pleasure

If you (or anyome out there reading this) truly feel this way, please seek professional psychological assistance. At the very least make attempts to find a better living situation for yourself, if it's your current conditions that are driving this belief.

This is blatantly disordered thinking, a sign of trauma, or a sign that there is something seriously wrong with the immediate conditions you are living in.

I'm not talking about the general doom spiral of the world as conditions, but things directly around you day to day. If you can't live your day to day without awareness of the general doom spiral, see what choices you can make to limit your exposure to it (in short: stop spending so much time online and reading articles about how fucked everything is).

There are always choices available to you to improve the world around you and your position in it, no matter by how small a margin. I've been where you're at, and things don't have to suck forever.

I don't want to misrepresent what you're saying, so correct me if I'm wrong, but are you saying that there is really is much more suffering in life than pleasure, and that the internet simply makes you aware of that fact, and that to improve your mental health you should try and forget about it and shut your eyes to the horrors of this world - but that they really still exist?
