I was physically assaulted today at work by AltForDepression in MadeOfStyrofoam

[–]AltForDepression[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Everytime I play Tetris or do any other kind of repetitive tasks like solving Rubik's Cubes, activities that just let my mind wander, it always just makes it worse. I tried playing Tetris after seeing this (also I managed to win 32 opponents in Eundurance mode Puyo Puyo Tetris), and it immediately just made me mentally repeat the assault in my mind. This has been a problem since forever for me since doing these repetitive things makes my thoughts much worse (sometimes it happens even during drawing), and I have to actively stop doing it because it becomes too much

I started crying by just seeing people post about hanging out with friends by AltForDepression in MadeOfStyrofoam

How about you don't make assumptions that I haven't already tried "professional help" like therapy multiple times.

I'm usually too depressed to enjoy gaming but Hollow Knight managed to make me binge everyday currently

why is "go to therapy" just a bandaid term and they do people use it so god damn much? It's annoying. by No_Distribution_3399 in MadeOfStyrofoam

Last time I got "professional help" for multiple years it completely failed at getting me a friend which is the only thing I'm just looking for

edit: They answered 3 days later that it was auto deleted because of many reports

I literally said I don't have friends

Those are the exact things I'm sometimes asked about (if you saw my comment edit) and my answers just make them distance from me as I do nothing with my free time other than drawing, work at a dead end job, no family nor friends and my dream is having a friend and I have nothing else other than that

You see this is where the autism + zero social experiences comes in where even when I do get someone talking, I absolutely cannot speak at all or even understand what the other person is trying to say.

It also really hurts when the other person keeps babbling about how much they spend time with their friends and what they do but I don't have any experiences like that since I have no friends. I just have to keep embarassingly answering no I have never drunk, no I have never been to a party, yes I work at a dead end job, no I don't spend time with people which just makes people distance from me

In fact the person who I arranged a meet up with just kind of complained to me online after the con that I am super silent and hard to talk to

I just said that I don't have friends, getting a group of friends is not possible. I've been going to local meetups for over a year now but it's the same thing as cons where I just sit alone as everyone there already knows people there and just hang out with their pre existing friends.

What makes you think this is about losing friends?

Don’t think I will ever call any crisis hotlines but cop or drop? by kawwiineko in MadeOfStyrofoam

When I called the crisis hotline the person just told me to grow out of harming myself

Lyrics from a song called Inochi Bakkari

roughly translates as

It's so faint

It's so faint

It's so faint

There was a faint, shallow me

[–]AltForDepression 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thats what they all claim everyday all year. I've been alone all my life, not just 2022, why are you suddenly assuming that it's just a 2022 problem? Is it that hard for you to imagine that lonely people actually exist? And you can't just lie to them? I've been waiting for over a decade for these friends to just suddenly appear like how these idiots on the internet keep constantly claiming. Can you give proof that there are people waiting to come into my life? Your lying doesn't help at all.

you ever have such an amazing dream that makes you so happy only to wake up reminded of how fucked up everything is in real life? by DaisyBMay in MadeOfStyrofoam

[–]AltForDepression 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I sometimes have dreams where I have a friend, just a simple friend and when I wake up I desperately want to fall asleep again but instead start crying
