It's cool. I wish I could be happy.
But for me, this sort of thing just sends me further into a deep depression.
It ain't right. Pictures of food don't fix hunger.
I hope that we snap out of all of this soon. Writing these comments, just to leave a log, in case someone cares, if it all goes wrong.
I miss having the ability to miss. Having the feeling that others exist. Right now I feel that other people stopped existing.
- PraetorianGourd 6y agoDon't be afraid to ask for help, don't be afraid to seek support. We are all feeling this right now, some more than others. I am just some rando on the internet, but if you need to talk to someone let me know. <3

- PraetorianGourd 6y agoI think this is somewhat tongue in cheek, almost a form of gallows' humor. Sometimes people deal with this sadness, pain, and isolation with humor, others create silly shit as a way of distracting themselves. People are still people, we are just being told that people are unsafe, with an invisible enemy attacking. I think these lockdowns are too far, I think we can't hide from danger. Most people disagree with me. I can't say I've found a way to deal with this. I am depressed. I take medicine, but that only worked when things were normal. I am more depressed than I can remember, but it feels numb. When I was depressed in the past, I was actively sad, actively self-harming through excessive drug use. Now I am just, existing, like you said. But there is hope. We can get out of this mess, things are getting better. Hopefully things will be better soon.

- _uwiz 6y agoThe way things are going at the moment, I'll have to emigrate to somewhere "sane" like Belarus in order to even meet another person.
- pjc50 6y agoYou can meet new friends at the street protests against the dictator!
- possiblelion 6y agoEstonia is a better option. Bars and restaurants are open, all without a bloody dictator.
- Doctor_Fegg 6y agoAlso the highest Covid rate in Europe right now, I believe?
- 74d-fe6-2c6 6y agoMy s/o is Estonian. The thing is - yes, rates are high - but ... that's about it. There is not much going on beyond incidence rates being high. Which makes me question the panic.
- yao420 6y agoI feel the same in Texas, we don’t have strict lockdowns and I’ve been going to gym, restaurants, and bars since June. Sure our rates are ‘high’ but are on par with places like California and New York who have very strict lockdowns.
- FriedrichN 6y agoI've been joking that I don't know what a woman looks like anymore. But it's kind of true, if I see people at all it's either through a camera or they're wearing a face mask. I really miss just having a cup of coffee and talking to other people about nothing at all. Sure you can call people but it's hard to talk about nothing or just sit and look at the people going by on the phone.
