things are in fact going extremely badly but we'll see if they pick up starting tomorrow night for reasons that will preclude me being here for about a week (seeing my SO)

I've been in a very dark place, mentally. I tried posting about it on a mental health community, and I attracted downvotes and trolls, so not good (some helpful people too, but not worth it imo)

I need to find a therapist, but I haven't had much luck in the past (had one who went on an unprovoked rant about how there's a MLK Day but no White People Day, and another who was obsessed with being so vocally anti-cannabis that I felt I couldn't be honest)

I'm thinking about staying with my parents for a while, but I can't afford to take time off work to go

I don't have any words of consolement, but I'd just like to say that you were one of the first lemmy users I found on beehaw and I've enjoyed your comments and posts.
