    I feel you, I’m in the same boat. However

    Fuck, sorry, I’m a lot better mentally nowadays

    Your profile picture does not signal this. Are you ok?

    I like to tell myself that it’s fine, and that I can live this way, and justify it with knowing this is not a privilege. Probably I’m hiding my mental problems well enough for others not to see it, but they are there. I know I’m not fine, and another thing I know is that I would tell otherwise when it comes up.

      Yeah, I’m on dating apps and actively trying to make connections these days. I still have some dark times, but they’re about as bad as my baseline was a year ago. Things are so much better in general, and when they aren’t I can handle it much better. I appreciate your concern!

      This is where the pictures originally from, I cropped it and touched it up a bit. In context it’s not as bad as it looks but it does resonate with me
