Thank you stranger. The past few years I've been through the cycle of trudging through the mud until the sun comes back out so many times. And every time the trudging starts over it's like I'm deeper in it so it's increasingly more difficult. I need to stop trudging to just sit and catch my breath for a while, but with the way this society is I never get that chance.

I was in an ickthe last three months or so. Barely got out of bed, drank a lot. Put on weight, let myself go. Got off my ass to go hiking today. The being in nature is nice, the Ick fell away for a bit, I could think again, and I think I have the Will to do it again tomorrow

Tl:dr go outside it might help

Dude running in the middle of the night is the absolute best thing ever. Literally nothing can beat the peaceful silence and solitude, accompanied by crickets and the occasional opossum depending on which part of the neighborhood you’re in. It’s the reason I love the summer so much, when it’s warm enough to do

I'm currently having a depressive episode. I'm worried about my future concerning money and family. It hit me that I'm 27 stuck at 8.5k a year as a part time school cleaner, scared that my autism and the traits I inherited as a result (combined with my anxiety and depression issues) will make a full-time job unbearable since I'm only good at video games, cleaning and singing (but have major stage fright) and don't have many strengths as a result (other than high empathy and kindness from other peoples accounts), the fact I live in a small village with very few opportunities and ever increasing house prices, I'm scared to drive because I get migraines (both from triggers and by complete random that will render me mostly blind) and with all that it's making my life dream of starting a family and fathering a child of my own seem more and more unlikely since I'm scared I both won't be able to afford having a child or won't be able to mentally handle having a child (or both).

I hope I can't get through this, seeing this post does make things a bit brighter
