My depression and anxiety is really playing off my new roommates mental health problems and making mine worse. I want to move out but they always say how they need me and that they want me here they just don't show it. Idk what to do

@politeWatermelon3016, hi! Thanks for checking in!

Living with people is stressful, especially with roommates. Everyone has their own needs and habits, and on top of that when you deal with mental health issues it can really drain you.

I do not know the details about your situation, so I don't want to assume anything. Do you think it is possible for you to continue to live in the current place after making some changes? Is it possible for you to talk with your roommates about your own needs and how you can all accommodate the space and schedules to fit them?

Let us know how are you doing, lovely. Best wishes!
