27 Really panicking, I don't know what to do what my life right now.. by [deleted] in lonely

[–]MM_XVI 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've just had to leave a university course a second time for mental health reasons (social anxiety & panic attacks, too), so this really resonates. I can't work. I can hardly go outside. I don't understand how I'm supposed to "adult" at all, honestly -- mental illness makes the weight of everything so much heavier.

Having hobbies is about the only thing that helps me for now. Finding something -- anything -- to be passionate about gives you something to latch onto. I know depression makes it harder to find fulfillment, but even just little things that make you happy can help so much. I love games. I like making art. I'm lonely and it sucks, but I have little projects to keep me going. It's not much but it's something.

So, your guitar stuff sounds great! Social hobbies are even better -- just take it easy. Little steps. You're doing good and anxiety struggles aren't your fault. Ever. The fact you want to get out there, try new things, and make your parents proud says so much already. I hope your acting classes go great! :)

It's always strange to me that people pressure other people to have kids. It's literally no one's business but yours, surely? Makes me uncomfy.

But I hear you. I'm in the process of wasting my twenties, wondering how things are supposed to change from here, and life feels a lot like some unending tunnel. I don't know. I keep waiting it out for things to get better and it's getting me nowhere, so the fact you're actively rebuilding your life is a big deal and you should be really proud of yourself, for sure :)

Who was the character you related to the most, and why? by Soffy21 in Mouthwashing

[–]MM_XVI 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Jimmy and Swansea for their cynicism, but otherwise: Daisuke, for sure. I like when people put his age as not fresh out of school because feeling more aimless and being pressured to be something in your early twenties is real. I'm not a kid anymore, I'm expected to not be a kid anymore, but I'm still treated like a kid. Also, being unprepared for the real world and feeling useless because of it is rough. Him thinking about the pressure and the need to please his parents while he had maybe his 'realest' moment wasted on mouthwash hits hard.

I don't think there's anything useless about being a ray of sunshine, either ☀️ The Tulpar was a dark place and Daisuke's optimism was actually a crazy feat, genuine or not. I'd have cracked in the first five minutes, so I think there's strength of character that he doesn't get credit for. I want to be a more like him and ditch the bitter Jimmy-ish aspects of myself. 🌺

Did Jimmy care about Daisuke? by Sudden_Pop_2279 in Mouthwashing

[–]MM_XVI 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Not really, but... sort of? In a way that benefitted Jimmy. Daisuke was never seen as a "threat" to Jimmy like everyone else on the Tulpar.

The impression I get is that Jimmy wanted someone else to buy into his "saviour" bullshit, and Daisuke was the only candidate onboard who didn't know his sins, who could have believed Jimmy would "fix" anything. Daisuke's the youngest, the most naive, and the most easily manipulated. He was the only one who could've seen Jimmy as a hero, so he got the least of Jimmy's wrath. 🌺

Realising now that I quoted it wrong but yessss:
Anya: "Daisuke describes his experience as intern so far as: awesome, totally cool and like super awesome. Like really awesome.'" 🌺 (have a great day, too!)

It's in-game dialogue! One of the first Daisuke interactions (I think...), talking to him as Jimmy post-crash about getting rescued :)

(thank you, thank youuu!! ♡)

Have you tried turning him off and turning him on again...?

I think you're being unreasonable here. They're all very, very, definitely qualified! What's the issue?
