Rules
- try to label triggering content and hide it behind a spoiler. In general at least make sure you hide mentions of suicide, self harm, violence, and sexual content.
- Don't discuss specific plans to injure or kill yourself or others. Discussion of general ideation is acceptable. Got something AWFUL to say? Try c/VoidScreaming
- Avoid requesting or giving medical advice beyond personal experience. Describing how you personally managed a medication side effect, for instance, is fine.

Idk if I’m the right one to help here…
But don’t take a permanent solution to a temporary problem. Maybe the 101st job will come through. Maybe your new bff is going to appear tomorrow. Idk.
The thing I do know is that nothing is permanent. Good or bad. Except death. Options are spiraling out into the future in front of you and this, too, shall pass.
Appreciate your past self - they overcame a lot to get you here.
Forgive your current self - they’re doing their best in trying times.
And trust your future self to make the best of what times come next.
Couldn't have said it better.
