Hey /kind/ how are you?

So, if you didn't know, the holiday season is statistically higher risk for instances of mental health issues. So if any kind Anons are feeling stressed out maybe vent about it here and maybe not in the psych ward and we'll try to cheer you up.

I've never really been all that close to them, so they didn't really care when I made the decision to opt-out. Mutual apathy. It's an odd relationship, I guess.

I mean yeah we do. That's kinda the whole point.

Actually I've heard it used to be even more kind before

No depression here. Christmas is fairly stereotypical for my family. Open presents in the morning (sometimes afternoon). Aunts, uncles, and cousins come over for dinner, and we all open more presents after. I've reached the point where I no longer ask for things and am just happy to see them. Though, as the night goes on, I do find myself looking for an appropriate time to go back to my computer.

I once spent Christmas Eve with a roommate I was mad at, because I didn't think they should be alone while everyone else in the apartment went home to their families.

I have like 3 family parties to go to (1 on dads side of the family 2 on mom's). I'm not much for parties and not very social in general, so it all kind of wears me out honestly. Still it's nice to see my family members and the food is always good.

If I have time I might bake cookies~

It's not even a sad, teary-eyed-filled "I JUST DON'T CARE ANYMORE!!", I actually don't feel anything about them anymore since she basically made them special single-handedly.

My family is crumbling apart. Returned home to be with and to work for my dad. Its just the two of us. The rest of the family is overseas and my mom has abandoned my dad after bleeding money out of the family business for the past 3 years.

We are not celebrating Christmas and we don't have any plans to go anywhere or do anything.

Happy to be home again. Things are a bit weird but it could be worse. I have meaningful employment, food, shelter and an income so all in all, even though my family is falling apart, objectively I'm better off now. I don't talk to my mom anymore as she is a pathological liar. I'm just glad she left before she bankrupted the business.

What is everyone else doing for the holidays?


 No.25012

>>25010

What did she do? Sounds like you're saying embezzling the funds.


 No.25016

>>24997

I suppose that makes sense, but maybe you'll meet someone one day that can make them special again. Or maybe you can follow her example and one day be that person for someone else. I'm sure she loved to make those days special for you and wouldn't want you to be sad even if she can't be there.

I mean that sounds pretty complicated. but at the very least, even if you're not going to do anything in particular your dad is probably happy to have you there.

I would let you have some, but the technology to send cookies through the internet isn't yet in existence, and it'd probably ruin the taste.

I'm alright i guess. It doesn't really feel like the holiday season despite having set up a tree, decor and lights.

I finished my first semester of college and i'm probably not going back to study next semester. I'm not really student material and don't dedicate time for it. I didn't really have any specific goal and just felt like it was a waste of time and money.

I should get a job in january.

I'm not really stressed, though i get bored and guilty at times.

Suicide rates rising around christmas is a myth, just clarifying.

For me its been very shitty days, and an even shittier year, honestly all holidays make for me is remind me that im stuck in my situation, nothing changes, at least not for the better. First my mom died a couple of months ago, its not getting easier but time does help, today 24 would´ve been her 59th birthday… The only thing I feel could help me is lots of drugs, sadly I dont have any friends who can get anything other than weed and id love to do mushrooms, lsd, cocaine and hell even dmt and heroin, fuck it all, I cant deal with this. Next I found im not made for college, gonna drop out next semester, my dad and the rest of the family will likely flip their shit because im supposed to be the smart one, though I do believe I can go through college but just not now. I didnt make a single friend of course.

I spent the last 4 years christmas and new years eve alone, just chilling in my room watching anime, shitposting and getting drunk and frankly I enjoyed it much more than every other night with my family. Thats because theyre a bunch of hypocrite friendgots bullies and abandoned my mom when she needed them, both financially and emotionally and now they expect me to gather with them like nothing happened? Unfortunately I have to because I cant risk breaking off all contact yet if I cant find a job for myself, as soon as I manage to be self sufficient with a place of my own, no matter how small and roach infested it is im bidding adieu to all of them. I hate families that do this, pretend that we get along and love each other despite all the evidence of the contrary. I just hope they have the decency to not ask their lets make fun of anon set of questions: do you have a gf yet? when are you graduating? oh your cousin just got a great job at this one company, what about you? yeah, fuck this


 No.25045

>>25044

I wasn't talking about suicide rates, some friends of mine who work in a hospital (who I might know from when I was staying there) tell me at their and other hospitals they always every year have a high number of people come in for inpatient mental health care treatment many of whom have no inherent or specific mental health issues but are simply overwhelmed by stress or depression do to outside circumstances.

And I definitely understand what you're going through with college being a shitty place to meet people and having a family I can't relate too but you can't really control everything you know you kinda just gotta play the hand you were dealt even if it's shit ya know? I wish I could help you out, theirs not a lot I can do from here, but life isn't as cut and dry as most people act like it is not everyone needs to get a long with their family and lots of people have trouble with college academically and socially for many reasons including that the way most colleges are run and operated in the first place is usually pretty fucked and impalpable to many kinds of people not willing to waste huge amounts of time and money learning almost nothing save how to follow directions unquestioningly in a shit social environment. So do your best anon but it honestly sounds like a lot of the shit you have to put up with isn't fair or anything you caused so don't feel too bad about any of it if you can't hack it because in your situation just bothering to try at all when faced with all that is probably commendable and outside of what a reasonable informed person would expect of you in a fair world.

Actually, only to last part of what I said that you didn't include was meant as a joke. To be clear I'd like to share the cookies with you lot if/when I bake them there's simply no practical way for me to get them to most of you unless you happened to live near me which isn't very likely.

Seriously college isn't for everyone. None of this is any of your fault I never get why people act like everyone needs to go to college especially when the quality of education provided at least in most american colleges isn't really all that impressive.

Plenty of people who are smart, talented, or otherwise, do perfectly fine if not much better going to community college, trade/technical school, or even just getting a job out of high school. College quite literally isn't for everyone I never really understood why everyone acts like it is. Plus lately many colleges seem not to give a shit about students or teaching as long as you pay the tuition they don't much care what happens to you one way or another and seem to feel little to no responsibility for how they affect your life.

Her name was on the children's account, dad's account and the business account. She was simply making cash withdrawals from all of these. So a lot of money is missing. She might have an outside man but we have no hard evidence. She still likes to pretend she is a victim. She also admitted to taking money from cash sales . So it's hard to get a proper estimate.

Dad trusted her to handle the accounts. This incident has been a big disappointment.

Sometimes I feel a bit left out on christmas or similar events,

thinking I could be having fun baking cookies with friends, decorating with friends or doing other christmas stuff with friends but my family has either already done these things without me or they're just not into it.

I wish I had more close friends irl who'd be like minded enough to do fun things like that with me..

no. but there exist a fringe part of society that believes in mumbo jumbo bullshit. But she was somehow stupid enough to throw money behind it.

She is seeing a psychiatrist now. She might have been mentally off and we didn't pick up on it. Or her hatred/envy against dad wore away her mind or believing in all this mumbo jumbo bullshit eroded her intelligence.

I… I dont know. Its not the "worst" day I have had, but at the same time its worse than the worst Christmas.

I feel more lonely and unloved than I have in the past. I miss my ex, I miss the closeness I had with her. I don't know if she left me because she was actually needing to know what it was like to date others or if she truly just grew tired of having somebody who would love and accept her despite her faults. I feel bad for phrasing it like that, but my logical side would have said to leave or avoid the situation if I knew about that side of her before having emotions for her.

I have been re-writing this a few times. I just wish I didn't feel so lonely like nobody likes me or wants me around.

Do you believe in magic?

In a young girls heart

How the music can free her

whenever it starts

And it's magic

if the music is groovy

It makes you feel happy like an old time movie

I'll tell ya about the magic

It'll free your soul

but it's like trying to tell a stranger 'bout rock n roll

If you believe in magic, don't bother to choose

If it's jug band music or rhythm and blues

Just go and listen

It'll start with a smile

It won't wipe off your face no matter how hard you try

Your feet start tapping

And you can't seem to find

How you got there

So just blow your mind

If you believe in magic

Come along with me

We'll dance until morning, just you and me

and maybe, if the music is right

I'll meet ya tomorrow

so late at night

We'll go a dancin' baby then you'll see

all the magic's in the music and the music's in me, yeah

Do you belive in magic? Yeah.

Believe in the magic in a young girl's soul

believe in the magic of rock n roll

Believe in the magic that can set you free

Ohhhh, talkin' bout magic

Do you believe like I believe?

Do you believe in magic?
