I say I haven't suffered too much from the lockdowns since I am kind of an indoors person and also don't really like going to parties and other events with lots of people.
But even then, I know the feeling of stress and the weight depression and anxiety can have on people. It is such an overwhelming and indescribable feeling, but it's good that you can come forward about it and discuss this with other people. Talking about it with friends and people you trust is often the first step to helping you overcome it.
Either way, Buddy, I hope that things will get better for you. And if you do think things are getting worse, you really should see a therapist. Even if it doesn't seem necessary, it may be the help you need in times of trouble. You can never be "too early" with seeking help.
"like are they really your friends if they never begin or start a convo but you are the one who always starts it?" @BuddyCroooock wow, this is really relatable. It's literally the same way with my friend group, and I have often felt the same way. Yet, if I'm honest, these people are still my friends.

We get along together well when we hang out even if it's only ever me who starts up the conversation. I can't say for certain why they never start of the conversation with me. Maybe they're super busy? It's just their personality? It's weird, and I don't get it, but we still get along well when we hang out, so I'd still call them my friends.

As for how I've fared in the Coviderate States of America, basically nothing has changed in my life. 1. I'm already a recluse. 2. School has been all-consuming. I would have been more or less under house arrest studying all day anyways even if covid had not hit.

Glad I'm not the only one that feels the same way about their friends. I guess you could say it's part of their personality, not saying all my friends are like that ofcourse. But the ones I hold/held closer to me, it's making me think.
It's very possible they're just not the kind of people to start conversations. They could be introverts or they could feel that communications isn't necessary to keeping a relationship going. I know my friend I've had since kindergarten is still my best friend, even if we only talk every couple of weeks.
eh, I feel like the worst has gotten behind me. Had a **** time when I was just past 18, but I always try to look at things optimistically. Whatever happens, I think I will always live a decent and happy life in some form.

That's a very healthy and positive way of thinking about it. I'm really glad you've moved past the negative aspects of your past and can look ahead.

Happy Early Birthday, scrub. Enjoy the Chinese take-out. Sounds great. Life's what you make of it. If you decide to, you'll live happily even if things are falling to pieces around you or you end up with basically nothing. Hopefully, it never comes to that, and I know it won't be easy if it does, but you still have a lot of control over how you process how externalities affect you.

I mean, I still have moments of worry and concern, but whatever happens happens. I enjoy stuff in the moment and will be happy with what I got.
Also, I don't think things will end up too horribly. I will always have something to fall back to (unless if everyone and everything I know goes to **** somehow.)
Also also, chine take-out is fantastic. I will eat so ****ing much of it I may just get sick lmao

@featherpaw welcome back to hell. Did you enjoy your time away? Pay no heed to Romke's kinks. Just make a mental note to never bring up the wooden spoon around him, mk? ͡ ° ͜ʖ ͡°
