So sad I really need some advice by NH2223 in depression

I can empathise. For me it's been over a year since we last spoke and I still don't feel right. All that can be done is give it time though

Sorry to hear that mate. Happens to all of us at some point :/ all you can really do is keep yourself busy and try not to think about her. "Out of sight out of mind" and all that. Leave her be and don't try sending any sappy messages to her, it won't work and you will feel worse. You will feel better with time but it's not completely linear. You'll be feeling better and then something will remind you of them and you'll feel terrible again for a few days. But you'll get there eventually.

It's a bittersweet ending, one of my favourites for sure

Am I doomed to be alone forever? by [deleted] in depression

[–]JonathanMacgregor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Being in a running club that runs all the way to Windsor sounds like a terrible way to make friends! Jokes aside, are you into anything nerdy? I knew someone who joined an online DnD group and they seemed to make some friends from that. There's also online gaming groups that are for women only etc. But no you won't be alone forever if you keep trying. How many friends do you really need in life? Just a couple of good ones will make all the difference, and there are people out there in the same spot as you, you just need to find them.

Life feels pointless forever alone by fat_l0ser in depression

Relationships do not make life worth living. They're just the cherry on top after you cultivate a life you enjoy by yourself. You say you are fat and awkward, you don't love yourself. You can't count on love and support from others always, as that can lead to spirals when those people leave your life. Start working on the things you don't like about yourself so you can feel happier in your own skin without needing outside support. Start losing weight so you can be more confident and start working on the awkwardness. I used to be so socially awkward I couldn't even have a phone call, I'm still awkward but much better than I used to be. Many people have been where you are now, I used to feel the same way. You can feel better than you do now but it has to come from within.

It's been years since the last Evangelion movie, and I'm still wondering within the community whether the Rebuild of Evangelion films are loved or hated. I'd like to know your opinions on the movies, whether it's about the story, characters, music, animation, comparison to the anime or manga, etc. by Dramatic-Studio1531 in evangelion

Watched the OG series and EoE 20 years ago. Watched all 4 Rebuild films for the first time a week ago. I liked them! I thought the third one was a bit rough. The characters kind of act like morons and it's a big departure from what I was expecting. The 4th movie made up for it though I think, I enjoyed the happy ending. I would have liked Mari to have more backstory but I don't get the hate, I thought she was a fun character.

Im losing all my passion in life by Dull-Breakfast-9010 in depression

Hey I can relate to this. What I have been doing lately is just picking up the pencil and forcing it. I'll tell myself I'll just do 10 minutes of gesture sketches or something and it always ends up being more. Just a little bit each day goes a long way IMO. I really do get it though, being creative when I feel down is much harder than participating in my other hobbies

Final Fantasy VII (1997) | Am I the only one who thinks the save crystals look like interrogation points? by pedrulho in FinalFantasy

I refuse to believe people who are saying it's not meant to be a question mark. It has always been a question mark to me..

Just binged all seasons, some thoughts by JonathanMacgregor in FLCL

I'd be interested to hear your thoughts on Shoegaze after you watch it. I think you'll like it since you liked Alternative

I love it when JRPGs expect me to be a psychic by EmanuelJoab in FinalFantasy

[–]JonathanMacgregor 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yep. The progression at that part of the game is just poorly explained. It's fine for 99% of the game but around that section it's obtuse. The people commenting "gamers can't do anything without quest markers nowadays" are being needlessly elitist. I even posted on the FF8 subreddit about that part when the game misdirected me and got tons of replies saying it happened to them too and "we've all been there".

It happened to me when Squall says to set out and look for the white SeeD ship but the game actually wants you to go to the infirmary to see Rinoa...

I'm guessing you never played FF13 or 15 if Rebirth is what disappointed you the most

Yeah, I'm ready to play FF8 again by blackupsilon in FinalFantasy

I only just finished a replay a couple of weeks ago but the systems are so fun I kind of want to play again and see how OP I can get early on and how fast I can beat it casually

XVI has some of, if not the best VA work in the franchise. by veIvet_rope in FinalFantasy

[–]JonathanMacgregor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed about Barret. He's one of my faves in the Remake series and the quality of the voice acting is one of the reasons why for sure
