Looking for a friend to message

...See more Hi there, I'm not exactly new here but I haven't really used the app that much despite having it on my phone for some time now. But I guess by that virtue, I would be considered new. I'm looking for friends, or a friend, to message or text back and forth with, maybe play games together? Full disclosure, I'm not the best at immediate responses so if you want that maybe I'm not the friend for you, but I do make an effort to respond at least daily, and I'm hoping we can build a decent friendship. A little about me, I'm 34 and an avid gamer (right now I'm playing fields of mistriaI and palworld) love to read and I want to learn how to think more deeply and really build some critical thinking skills. I like to think about hypothetical situations, are there ruins other planets? I'm open to talking to just about anyone, the isolation is starting to get to me tbh.

How do you know who you are?

...See more I've recently come to the realization that sometime over the past few years I've completely lost myself. Or maybe I never knew myself to begin with, since I was a chameleon in high school and generally my entire public school career. This lack of identity is contributing to catastrophically low self-esteem which leads to suicidal ideation and increasing depression, as well as pushing my partners away and not fully trusting them or allowing them close to me. Suffice to say, there are hurt feelings all around and I don't know what to do about it. I want to do better and be better, but in order to do that I feel the increasing need to figure out who I am. Because after all how can I authentically relate to other people if I don't know who I am at my core. Due to this though sense of self, I lack trust in myself and others. Because it can't trust myself, how can I know that my trust and others as well placed? How can I take them at their word if I can't take myself and my word. Have any of you gone through this, and come out the other side? I'll be honest, I'm terrified, and I don't know what to do.
