Off My Chest
RULES:
I am looking for mods!
1. The "good" part of our community means we are pro-empathy and anti-harassment. However, we don't intend to make this a "safe space" where everyone has to be a saint. Sh*t happens, and life is messy. That's why we get things off our chests.
2. Bigotry is not allowed. That includes racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia, and religiophobia. (If you want to vent about religion, that's fine; but religion is not inherently evil.)
3. Frustrated, venting, or angry posts are still welcome.
4. Posts and comments that bait, threaten, or incite harassment are not allowed.
5. If anyone offers mental, medical, or professional advice here, please remember to take it with a grain of salt. Seek out real professionals if needed.
6. Please put NSFW behind NSFW tags.

I’m sorry you’re feeling this way, what would be most helpful in terms of support?
I have a “solution-oriented” mindset, so what follows may not be what you need or are looking for. I’ll leave it to someone else to chime in with a different flavor.
Your imagination is your own worst enemy here, resenting or hating others for having a good time isn’t going to fix anything.
Everybody’s got problems, getting drunk at a club or campfire guitar in the woods could be two different formats of escape from the chaotic world we’re all living in.
So, ultimately, I ask of you - what are you going to do about it?
If you’re not finding fulfillment here, make a change. Go observe nature, take on a new hobby (like guitar!) sign up for a class or workshop to forge new connections. If you’re unable to go places and truly confined to the internet, seek out community for things like online tabletop gaming.
If you prefer to dwell in the negativity, that is your choice, but that’s where you’ll stay unless you do something.
