I don't know what aside from what haven't already been said. Are there specific issues about yourself that you hate? Do you have things going on that aren't good but you'd rather keep to yourself (be it about you or others around you)?

I'm pretty open about it all really. Well, online at least, when I actually interact with people in person I try to bottle everything up and just poorly pretend I'm normal.

For specific issues, uhhh, I feel like I've been through most of them but:
  • My appearance pretty much as a whole, my weight is the obvious one but beyond that I don't like my facial features at all and my hair is horrifically thin up top. My skin doesn't look great either, I've got permanently bright red cheeks and shit, and some discoloration from a skin condition that leaves a couple patches unable to tan at all so I pretty much have to stay pale unless I want to look even worse. And can't grow facial hair at all, and even if I could those patches grow completely white facial hair as well so it looks real shit.
  • I'm still living with my parents at 27 with zero chance of being able to move out for another couple years at best. I'll likely be 30 and still living with them. And making it worse I don't get along with them at all, they feel less like family and more like people I just have to live with because I have nowhere else to go.
  • I graduated college after 8 and a half fucking years in December but my prospects for long term employment are pretty bleak currently. Gonna start going for my CPA this summer but that's gonna take a lot of study time and just time overall, maybe by next year sometime I'll have it and be able to get a job.
  • Social life is just entirely non-existent. Like, I haven't had social interaction outside of school or work in legitimately 7 years at this point. No friends, and less than zero romantic prospects in that entire timeframe (and for my entire life on the romantic front but yeah). I don't know if I'm even capable of it at this point.
  • Even if I somehow managed to pull some social skills out of my ass I don't think I have a single likeable personality trait in my body or brain or whatever.
  • I don't really have any hobbies to occupy my time aside from video games, movies/TV, and books, none of which I'm really even enjoying at this point and just continue to do because I don't have anything else.

nothing to it my guy. buy a tea infuser, buy tea leaves. boil in water. donezo. it sounds stupid i know but a nice cup of tea really calms me down, depending on the type of tea. i dont know what it is but it's like as long as i'm drinking that cup my tension fades away for a little bit
I think I will look into this

Yeah, but you dont have to feel like this. Nobody should have to and therapists can help you fix yourself mindset to get you back on track. You dont have to take meds, either.

Also, tea is what helped me beat alcoholism which improved my mental health by a lot. You just need hot water and a cup.
I think given how absolutely buttfucked my brain chemistry is I'm going to have to be on meds for the rest of my life

Nobody should have to feel like this but that doesn't stop it from happening.

And man I'm just so fucking skeptical of there being a therapist in my area and my price range that would even have a chance of being able to help me. I'm beyond fucked, I'd need the very best and the very best, one, wouldn't work in Kansas and two, would cost too much for me to afford

you don't need the very best. you just need someone who recognizes your wavelength and in turn recognizes how to diffuse it

Yeah, it can't hurt at least.

I'm amazed I've made it 2 months and only missed one day, considering how my mental state went from like a 4 to a -6 in that timeframe.

I'm really doubtful a therapist like that exists, I've got so so many issues at this point

Do you have insurance? We can try to help you locate someone in your area if you have all the info. If not, there are surely local resources.

that's similar to how i felt. I had been through 1 psychiatrist and 3 therapists before i found my guy, over the course of a couple years. but when i finally found one that worked my life tangibly improved within a month. i really dunno how they do it it's like magic. i don't get anxious in social situations anymore. it used to be so bad i puked anytime i left the house. i went from that to social butterfly. admittedly i had to fake it at first but it becomes so easy that it's natural. therapy did that. my depression was harder to undo but it was mostly undone, and the rest of what was there i managed to push out thanks to techniques and ways of thinking that my therapist gave me

i really think you should spend as much effort as you can muster to find one who works. i know that's probably impractical but the potential return of this investment in yourself is huge

As someone that suffers from horrible depression, I know what it feels like to be so conflicted. I suffered for years, just sitting here doing nothing but what you're doing - just feeling down.

It was only just this week that I looked outside, saw a small patch of yard that looked horrible, and I just turned off my computer, put my headphones on, [Portland legal], and just started to clean it up. Once I got going, I just kept going, and before I knew it, it was getting dark and I didn't even notice. For the first time in a really long time I didn't really notice the passing of time, and I didn't feel as depressed that night when I laid down to sleep.

But once I did lay down, I got really depressed again.

That's when I knew I had to just do that again. So I stood there looking at what I did yesterday, feeling proud of myself, and that motivated me to do even more. I worked that whole day and felt great the whole day. I didn't even take one of my pills. Again, I went to sleep happy and I stayed that way.

The next day I did it again. More time doing something to keep me busy, keep my mind off how terrible my life is, and it was making my yard look great, which made me even more motivated to make it look even better. Step by step, I keep feeling better and better, and I'm losing some of my extra weight because I'm digging and pulling and moving shit around.

It took me a long time to find out that this would help, and it may not help you, but it's worth a shot. And it doesn't have to be yard work around your place if you don't want to be around your parents. Before I started doing my yard work, I was thinking about picking up trash at locations around town. There was always either a Reddit MeetUp or just a MeetUp where they gave you all the stuff you need to pick up trash, all you hand to bring was you.

I wish I could help more, but it's really about you and what you think might help you stay distracted until you're in a position in life where you feel better about yourself.

It's rough, but it can get better if you can figure out what works for you

I graduated but I did no internships while in school and nobody will hire me so it's basically the same as still being in school

I made the same mistake. Nobody ever told me internships were a requirement to get a job. I was spending all my time on trying to get good grades lol. I do something completely unrelated now.
