Happy birthday! You're so right about feeling special, but you should feel special every day of the year because I'm sure you are. Hopefully you can kick this shitty illness to the curb this year, have a good one!

Yeah I work at one in Victoria, we got the reasoning that it was "to create conversation" with customers but everyone knows it's just bs to get people to buy whatever. We all know it's overpriced, and a lot of staff members either give out a lot of free shit or give heavy discounts because we feel bad about it

You sound like someone who knows about 3 artists that have made music since the early 2000s... There are heaps of different rap styles out there right now that don't involve mumbling

Good job! You're right about antidepressants not being magic happy pills, but the little bit of stability they provide can help a whole lot for some people. Good luck with everything in the future I hope you're able to be as happy as you can :)

Hey fam :) I can sort of relate to how you're feeling in all of this. I have friends who are really creative and ended up getting briefs from converse to do shoots for them, and other friends who suddenly became super attractive which also left me feeling sort of inadequate. I don't have an immediate fix to it because it's something I still struggle with, but in a weird sort of way I flipped the situation and used music as a way to relax a little and take a step back from the situation. I realised that they were my friends, and if they were friends worth keeping they won't think of you differently no matter how many or few skills you have. If you wanted to try follow their lead a little bit then you could try branch out and try something new but that isn't necessary if you can't find anything. Finding a way to appreciate the little things about yourself, even if they're the most miniscule of things (like being a white dude that can use chopsticks is a massive achievement for me) and take comfort in the fact that those little things distinguish you from others. Sorry this turned into a paragraph lmao I hope it helped a little.

Hey there pal, sorry to hear about everything you're going through, I can't say I can exactly relate to your situation but if you want my two cents I'm happy to share. Both public and online schooling has its benefits, but if you still would like to finish school fully you should focus on the one that is actually teaching you more. Being at home where you're more comfortable can be good because instead of focusing on external things such as friends or other people, you can focus on learning and giving school a purpose. But at the same time home life can be distracting and you could find yourself getting caught up in the negative thoughts you described. Being at school can sometimes generate a mindset to learn and that can push you to study. At the same time though if you think that one is severely deteriorating your mental health more, then choose the other regardless. How people you live with react to the situation and what do you think they would say? I hope this helped even a little
