  • Can it take months to get over being laid off?

    Jump

  • This sounds like anxiety and possibly major depressive disorder. All you can do is see a therapist, or just keep forcing yourself to get up instead of laying down and tell yourself it will get better. Just small steps for now.

    Increasing levels of depression in Western populations over the last 50 years correlates with widespread adoption of UV blocking sun creams that inhibit vitamin D production in the skin.

  • Both vitamin B & D are linked with depression when levels are low, but my phone must've assumed I only meant B and omitted the D. -__-' AI isn't always helpful lol. But yes, a few minutes of sun each day can help a lot. Otherwise vitamins are a good way to supplement the two.

  • If you can question if you're bad or good, then you're likely good. A bad person wouldn't even ask the question.

    With that said it sounds like you likely have Major Depressive Disorder along with feelings of some guilt over the partner you've lost. My suggestion as a former psychiatrist, is you speak to your general physician, request a referral to see a therapist asap.

    In the meantime a good doctor will suggest you start a medication like Prozac (but it can take 6 months to take effect and there's alternatives like Celexa, Zoloft, Cymbalta). And all I can suggest try getting outside more and get some vitamin B and D, even if it means sitting in your backyard and reading a book for 5 minutes.

    Also, the next time these thoughts come up, try practicing controlling your breathing. These thoughts are common now, so you need to try reasoning with that part of yourself, assert yourself over your negative thoughts and calmly remind yourself; you are in control. You can still make changes and it's never too late for a second, or even third chance.

    I am new to Lemmy after trying to use reddit and being scared away, since most of you are former reddit users can you explain why reddit is run the way it is ?

  • Yup, spez is just a crazy doomsday prepper who has unprotected sex with cats.

  • Begging for all the Lemmy Audiophiles recommendations on computer speakers!

    Jump

  • Interesting direction, any recommendations? As I feel like I’m starting all over again these days lol.

  • Referencing what the user you’re responding to is actually going on about. Seen him remark on this at least once before, a few days back and realized when I saw his user name.

    His Lemmy server blocks the IMGBB service, it was used in trolling 6 months back. So he’s insinuating all traffic from there, is at risk of being child porn or questionable.

    But you could be on something, perhaps he somehow avoided the brilliance that was, King of the Hill.

  • See you in Hell

    Jump

  • Bingo. Sure, there were Redditors using IMGBB to post porn on Lemmy, but completely writing off the image server over the actions of bad removeds is overkill.

  • Legit or no? yep.com

  • It’s like fundraising, if you have to ask if they fulfill their promises, you should know it won’t be long before you hear they didn’t. Besides, this sounds like a con from the way they describe it. So yeah, that’s gonna be a no from me, dawg.

  • Good luck!

    Jump

  • Some people just need a reason to hate and avoid any personal accountability. They’ll take anything they can get, they’ve had a shitty day/year/life and somehow beating up on a faceless stranger feels morally acceptable to them. The truth is, they are in fact just awful people, looking to justify their shitty behavior by correcting grammar or downvoting a complete stranger. Trying their damndest to avoid looking in the mirror. Whilst the rest of us humans, have a shitty day but roll with it. Because if you can’t let it roll off, you will never be happy.

    Oh you definitely get used to it, you just randomly start hearing what you think is an old pay phone.
