You can do something big! Volunteer; do conscious small acts of kindness; learn to paint or play an instrument or write poetry or a story and share it with people here or irl just for the sake of sharing - these things may seem small, but they are things not very many people actually do, and I can confidently say the world would be a better place for your doing them. I know its easier said than done, but starting small is always the very first step to making a big impact.

I havent been diagnosed with schizophrenia, but I have dealt with psychosis for about 7 years now, and I really struggled at times with the feeling of detachment and the importance vs. unimportance of things becoming muddied and that making it hard for me to care about anything at all. Doing things where I can see another persons benefit from it helped me rationalize things.

Unless a diagnosis of schizophrenia means you need to be careful about the kind of media you consume, I'm like 99% sure anime isn't your problem. Anime featuring Truck-kun sending an ordinary person off to a fantasy world where he or she will either automatically awesome or have a second chance at becoming awesome in a world of high technology or fantasy are popular for a reason. The cost of living is skyrocketing, wages are stagnant, there is a housing crisis, a looming climate crisis which we can already feel, the political situation is tenuous in America, and there is a war on that features one country constantly threatening and then unthreatening to use nuclear weapons.

You can bake a cake or fly a kite all you like, but at some point, the stress starts eating away at most people to some degree. I live in a small town, and the other day, I swear every single person I met while running errands was close to Morbing out. Hasn't been this bad around here since COVID started.

Try stepping out of your comfort zone, do your best, and see someone if you need to. It's all any of us can do, really. Also, if it doesn't bother you too much, try dipping your toes into one of those cute girls doing cute things shows. Or give Stardew Valley or Story of Seasons or something a try if you haven't played those kinds of games. I've always found immersing myself in relaxing, slow-paced media I can control very helpful.

have you watched attack on titan up to the final season?

Bacon always makes me happy

Do you see a psychiatrist? Things you used to like suddenly feeling joyless can be a symptom of depression and you might benefit from meds.

But what kind of stuff do you normally watch? Maybe try to push yourself outside your comfort zone and try something from a genre, creator, or audience you normally ignore just to see if it'll spark something. Or maybe look into literature, too.

My boy bout to go straight Buddhist.

Stop watching that anime shit

I'm absurdly curious about what the left conspiracy theories are anymore.

You're just the person I'm looking for then.

So like, do you ever get into arguments with right-wing conspiracy theorists and call each other's conspiracies BS? What is that argument even like?!

they are hard but they can work and be free of toxicity, mine started ld and we now live together years later. ask yourself what's going to happen if she's not back for good and one day like maybe 1 to 2 years from now she suddenly has to move away again? will you give up on the relationship and not even attempt to maintain a long distance relationship? if both people can commit, they can be successful

Hey I broke up with mine for 18 months.

You can still do a long distance relationship.

I would absolutely fear the shit out of that thing, if it existed

No because Pokmon hasnt interested me since the ds games and the new ones arent very good imo

The amount of people you know can probably be counted on one hand
