I have one friend whos well connected and i never get invited to parties lmao

I gotta figure out a way to insert myself into his groups cause im bored

f*** that simp s*** and f***em

Yeah im amazed at how many low points i survived to get to this point. In HS i was rewarded for sticking it out because i had my first girlfriend after years of depression

alot of people in this thread seem like they hang around some losers

it takes time and its hard but u gotta find family people who care about u even if u like different s***

i got some friends who have bad senses of humor and lots of problems but at the very least i know they're there for me

mood swings suck tho i cant be stable

people dont get this isn't a choice fetishizing depression and then shocked ur not suddenly better

but yeah im lucky i have people who care for me

I have friends as individuals but not as a group like most people i know. When u have a friend group they usually hangout often to kill time and do fun s***.

When its just one on one they just wanna sit around the house and chill

u need to get your groups connected man

really helps s*** out all my friends know all my friends

need to take a step and be the organiser

just organise a drink with like as many as you want and they'll get along

Yeah i tried that in the past, didnt work lol. Its a good idea dont get my wrong, but i think at this point i have to insert myself into another group

dam why didn't it work?

i just dont like the idea of "inserting yourself" into a group

then you'll be stuck around some c***s you dont like

like my friends have some friends who i think arent great but i dont really have to see them on the regular (luckily)

one of my friends has some loser friend who tries to fight me every time we drink what a c***

trick is not to let them get u down and being more of a positive energy than they are will have people like u more and get them ostracised instead

shout out to all my non-violent people internalising their self-hate

s*** gets better all you can hope for is gathering a good support system

It didnt work because these friends all have their own issues they internalize. I dont even talk to 3/4ths of them anymore anyway because they were distant.

And yeah some people turn into a different person when drunk lol. Gets annoying

But in terms of inserting myself into a group im good at talking to people, even though i might not have a lot in common. Im just looking to have new experiences tbh

nah that guy was a loser sober too, just gave him an excuse to be s***ty but i got him removed from all our groups

i know what you mean the hardest thing is seeing your flaws in someone else that s*** is hard af to deal with so sometimes cool people just dont work out

but seriously work at it and its never the ones you expect (both linking friends and meeting people)

most of my best friends i met thinking we would probably never talk again after the first time things just work out randomly

really overthinking is the enemy

even if someone has nothing in common with u just bring them out for a drink or a j my fave thing is just to go to the park listn to some music and talk about whatever and thats prety universal

anyway can someone point me to the girls/dating thread i gotta vent

Im like 50/50 on optimism. Way my life is rn I feel like I can only go up

That time again

I just love sitting in the quiet. Constant sound makes my derealization worse

finally got some closure on how what i experienced recently was psychological abuse

I gotta come outta my shell n express my self one day. I’ve been quiet and timid for too long like I’m experiencing everything for the first time. I’m 18 and need to get used to this s*** already. F*** it imma start forcing myself to be uncomfortable till I get comfortable, life is too short for this bs and I need people in my life that will make me forget how useless I am.

Everyone in mental health chat should have a group fund for benzos. Like carpool but for d****

no wtf

im tryna get off these s***s

Bro

depression

nobody
