graduation depression rant
Depression Support / by coffeecherry

...See more I’m feeling really depressed. I’m on an antidepressant that works well for me, and having my ADHD medicated helps a lot too. But my primary goal in life was to go to college and graduate. School often left me in a survival state, but at least it provided a sense of purpose. Now I’m struggling to work through job applications and I barely leave my room. I’m playing video games to relax but all my friends are gone for the break and I just feel really alone. I feel disconnected with my religion but I know God loves me and supports me. I’ve just had it drilled into my skull that a lack of work makes life meaningless, so when I’m not working or contributing to society I feel worthless. It’s just a lot to carry and I’m afraid that even finding work won’t alleviate my feelings; I’ve always had school to structure my life and demand constant attention and productivity. It’s just a big transition and I’m really overwhelmed.

...See more Okay I'm gonna keep this short but basically when I was 14 my best friend was my cousin, who was my same age. let's call her Anna. we volunteered at a coffee shop together, where we both started liking this 19 year old. let's call him John. John pitted me and Anna against each other, basically making us compete for his love and affection. He secretly r*ped both of us, while still making us compete. it didn't stop until I left the coffee shop nearly 3 years later. Anna married John on her 18th birthday, in the middle of the ongoing police investigation, since I'd filed against him. Nothing came of it, he got off scratch free. I found out today that she's pregnant. We're both 19 now. Idk how to process it at all, but I can't help but feel like if I'd stayed loyal to her, neither of us would have experienced this trauma, let alone her getting stuck with the monster.
