Off My Chest
RULES:
I am looking for mods!
1. The "good" part of our community means we are pro-empathy and anti-harassment. However, we don't intend to make this a "safe space" where everyone has to be a saint. Sh*t happens, and life is messy. That's why we get things off our chests.
2. Bigotry is not allowed. That includes racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia, and religiophobia. (If you want to vent about religion, that's fine; but religion is not inherently evil.)
3. Frustrated, venting, or angry posts are still welcome.
4. Posts and comments that bait, threaten, or incite harassment are not allowed.
5. If anyone offers mental, medical, or professional advice here, please remember to take it with a grain of salt. Seek out real professionals if needed.
6. Please put NSFW behind NSFW tags.

As a lot of people say, it’s hard making friends as an adult. My depression tells me that I should be alone. I know that sounds irrational but it seems to be true. I don’t know how to break out of the loop…
If you need support, don't hesitate to seek help. It may be easy to say, especially as a French person, but it's important to remember that loneliness is not inevitable. Many adults, regardless of their social class or gender, also experience loneliness.
By addressing feelings of depression and focusing on regaining your vitality, you'll find that you can go out on your own, relax, and enjoy a drink. When you take care of your health, you'll be more open to meeting new people and connecting with others.
Good luck friend
Thank you for your thoughtful response. Letting this all out has me feeling a bit better. People actually heard me, which is all I’ve wanted for a while I guess.
To be heard and understood is a necessity for us, humans.
Have a good day 😊
You too, my friend!
