"value": "I deleted TikTok several months ago when I learned about how it shortens your attention span, is considered a national security threat by the U.S. military specifically, and the algorithm deliberately targets underage girls and shows them suggestive material. I couldn’t be a part of it anymore. Sure there were good parts, but I couldn’t justify spending every morning mindlessly watching random crap. Now I’m stuck on Instagram reels, but the algorithm shows me less of the vapid spewings a of consumerist, brainwashed idiot and more of what I’m actually interested in and sticks to it. Not saying Instagram is good either and I’d totally like to do away with it also, but TikTok’s business model is scary and predatory, not just on young girls, but everyone.\nEdit: not FBI, but the military and the government in general consider TikTok to be at least a cyber security threat"

It takes so much strength and energy to open up about it, or just anything in general, when you've been conditioned to do the opposite. I'm 23. I don't have depression but it took getting infected with covid and going through so many breakdowns for me to go to a psychiatrist to have him tell me I've actually been having anxiety and panic attacks and not me being crazy, because seeking help is seen as a negative thing. Learning about mental health and seeking help should be normalized. In case no one else told you yet, you should be proud of yourself for opening up bit by bit. It IS a big deal and you're doing an awesome job"

The feelings and emotions your experiencing are real and need real solutions. Learn to ignore the people who don’t understand your problems and take what they say with a grain of salt. It’s not easy but focusing on positive people in your life and staying focused on moving ahead and dealing with your issues in the healthiest and best way possible. There will ALWAYS be people on this world without compassion. Don’t let that destroy you. My friend I personally know how these feelings can eat you alive. Find a good therapist, create a healthy diet and exercise plan and if medication is needed to don’t be ashamed to take it. Confide in a dear friend or family. Member you trust and tell them you need a support system. And then explain what kind of support system YOU need."

"value": "Finding something meaningful to do with my time here. After a failed suicide attempt, I began thinking about things that used to make me happy. One of those things was learning; in particular, I loved reading medical research. I came up with a plan to take any prerequisites I needed to get into a program in a nearby medical school for research. I started slow- taking one class fall semester to begin with, but I also found other things to occupy my time in meaningful ways while I started with this one class. I learned phlebotomy and volunteered at a fire department. Once I found some confidence in my ability to think clearly again that semester, I went full time. By the end of that spring, I got into the research program with the condition of passing summer organic chemistry. That next fall, I started at Upstate Medical University. 4 years later, I have my degree in medical biotechnology, I live with my fiancé, the love of my life, and we have plans to move to our favorite place in the world soon where I’m applying for my dream job researching cures for infectious disease. It was far from a smooth path from where I started, but I picked up more goals and interests over time. I probably won’t be remembered long after I’m gone, and I still don’t understand why I’m here or why I have so many issues. There may be no reason at all. I may have suffered a lot in my life for no reason. Regardless I plan to leave this world a slightly better place for having existed. Maybe I’ll find something in my research that doesn’t work, and someone will save time in their career because of it. That’s good enough for me. All I know is finding something meaningful to do with my life made all the difference for me."

Commuting, office life, being a 'key worker' but getting nothing for it, watching the governments scramble etc. Add to that the intense inflation that most countries are seeing and then the Russian invasion of Ukraine and the ever looming possibility of nuclear war... I really think many of us are - consciously or subconsciously - feeling like we have no power in this world and are just swept up in whatever the powers-that-be decide to do. People are reacting in different ways: some are getting generally angrier, some have become withdrawn, some have become desperate etc. Not to mention humans naturally fall into routines, and after lockdown forcing many to stay home, it's been extremely difficult to get back into the habit of being social and going outside a lot. Even very extroverted family members of mine have said how they feel like they've forgotten who they really are and are struggling to get back into the swing of things."

Or threaten suicide, because to the reader we won't know whether or not they completed it.\nTake shots at this or down vote me. I've been lurking and pulling back from here anyway.

You don’t know what other people are going through, all we can do is create the space for people to talk about it and treat people with objective, judgement-free kindness and understanding.\nNot everyone has a little bit of anxiety. My husband has zero anxiety, it is difficult for him to wrap his head around my condition sometimes because he’s never experienced it. Communication both ways helps.\nMental illness certainly shouldn’t be normalized but there are outside factors contributing to an increase in debilitating depression, anxiety and general loneliness in this generation. Don’t shoot other people down because you don’t think their condition is as bad as yours. Human connection is proven to help with this. Let’s be better and more understanding of what others are going through."

I was 27 going on 28 and had spent prime “figuring yourself out” years being co-dependent with this partner because it was comfortable (and the sex was great). At the time of my attempts, I was working a job I hated, lost in life, unable to process emotions, living with my dad (who is also not a good person), broke, etc.\nFast forward to 4 years later…\nIt wasn’t easy and I’m not here to tell you it is or will be, but I am SO much better off. I’m living with a roommate now in a nice apartment in downtown. I have two wonderful cats. A girlfriend who loves and respects me and is fantastic at making sure I always know that. I am working a job I mostly enjoy for a company I love working for and making the most money I’ve ever made in my life. I have a nice pre-owned car. And I am, overall, happier than I’ve ever been in my adult life.\nI still struggle with anxiety quite a bit and still have my depression days and mood swings from time to time, but nothing beyond just feeling mopey and/or sad and/or agitated.\nI’m happy I’m still here."

I have a wonderful partner, I'm repairing my relationship with my parents, I'm surrounded by good friends, I have two wonderful pets and we're planning on buying a house soon. Things are good.\nBut I never learned how to come to terms with my happiness. Every time we make plans for the future, no matter how good, I feel trapped. Don't get me wrong, I am so glad and thankful and proud for how far I've come, but I still have those days where I feel I never should have lived this long to begun with. Its hard to trust that I'm not on borrowed time or that u deserve the good I've been handed.\nSo, yes. But I hate it."
