How are you doing? - Kiwi Farms Wellness Check

I had to say goodbye to a coworker I really liked. We weren't really too close and we had a growing distance between us so I can't claim much more from them but I really liked them anyway. If I were more ambitious and stable then maybe things could have been more intimate but we both had other things in mind and I can only call myself a coward in the end. I'll miss her either way. I guess she was too good for me when I had the chance.
 
My mother thinks I have Seasonal Affective Disorder and I think that is possible. I never noticed it, but sometimes you can miss gradual, slow changes in the personality like that, especially if not extreme. It felt like my mood suddenly lifted a few days ago with a spike in the brightness and warmth outside. But the fundamental problems of my life don't go away because of that, nor have they in the past. I'll probably fail out of my program in about a month. I was one of the best candidates in it - got an award - and I know my salary and employment prospects will shoot up if I just do the bare minimum to get through this semester and then the bare minimum of one more year. But I'm very tired of it and I don't fear, in any intense way, the future anymore. I don't know what I plan to do.
 
I just read the latest chapter of the Deathworlders... only to discover it was the last. I don't know how to feel about that, I've been keeping up with the new chapter every month for a very long time and now it's over. it sucked when Schlock mercenary suddenly ended, and this is starting to suck.
 
doing alright today. nothing exciting happened except the typical fearmongering news tbh.
 
The last couple weeks have sucked on every front.

Can't really go into it, but goddamn I need a win.
I'm not going to get into it either, but I swear every time I have a few months of good times the shit hits harder to make up for it.
 
Despite getting so much done today it's been long and draining. Dumb shit galore, got to learn all about what a subpoena is and now that all adulting for the day is done - beer.

I'm seeing a therapist tomorrow for the first time in many years. I've been in a depressive rut for awhile, but ever since my grandmother died in February it's been so much worse. Interminable, an almost physical weight. I'm still able to get out of bed in the morning ,but it's a titanic effort. I don't know how much talking about it, or trying to talk about it, will help. I figure it can't hurt. I'm not losing anything doing it. But the despair I feel runs deep, deeper than I can sum up in words, and the future has never looked blacker.

Sometimes establishing a routine activity can help things better. Even if it's just going for a short walk or swim.
 
Lonely. Just lonely. Got no one to talk to about little things like hobbies, both online and real life and I don't want to put up with the pozzed shit infecting said hobbies just to MAYBE find one person.

But I tell myself that I will find a person to talk to one day. Just not today. Sorry for the gay PL.
Just hop into kf chat, watch for a moment and randomly interact. You'd be surprised - not everything here has to be an edgy meme
