Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.
As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.
Thank you and happy chatting!

I agree with using the school and being a student as an excuse. Take advantage of it. Most colleges have a gym and a library which can give you time away from home and help you recharge. You can nap in library (a straight 45 minutes will do wonders if it is nearly every day, or even take a caffine nap (which is slamming a cup of coffee and sleeping for 20 to replenish adenosine)) or you can make some more friends who can help you out, even potentially give you a place to crash if things get worse and you become close enough. Just tell your mom you need to study and point to the fact that she is making you go to school so you are making it a priority. Typically a school gym wont let non-students or non-alumni in, so you get a space your mom can’t even get to you.
