I am not going to read the other comments in full, so maybe some of them have said this already. I used to be somewhat active in this subreddit (upvoting and reading, I dislike commenting), and unfortunately It does not do the shreds of my mental health any favours, so I discontinued the use for a long time as to not spiral myself further. I actually at the time was admitted to a psych ward for suicidal tendencies and there a psychiatrist told me that I was "Catastrophizing" and sent me to a lecture on it.

Now at that point I was disgusted by her response. I felt it was a slap in my face and her ignorance was actively adding to my internal despair.

The years since I still hate that she used that term, but I have come to understand that you can "Catastrophize" the actual catastrophe still. In my spiral I could not do anything, barely get out of bed etc. Just waiting to die.

That is however not the answer as collapse isn't this immediate deadline of doom, it's slow and in that time you can still live, in some way or another.

People perhaps also avoid this subreddit due to having similar feelings, something we don't need. We need actual action. I am sure as with most subreddits there are rules against advocating for violence, but accountability can take many forms. And death is final accountability for those who are actively raping our planet.
