I know it’s a lot more empty but, even so, there was loads more cooperation, discussion, and just plain kindness here than on the other Place. It feels good man.
This. I appreciate people saying “you have to be selfish / take care of yourself” but when you have depression, focusing on your self-improvements feels overwhelming or difficult. I have been there - helping friends was easy, but doing things for myself (like cleaning my room, getting rid of junk, or organizing my files) was hard-to-impossible. When I got on SSRIs, that helped me a lot. I ended up switching to microdosing because the SSRIs were interfering with other parts of my life, but SSRIs got me there.
If you can’t get to a mental health provider, sometimes you can get friends to help you, like you have helped them, but this won’t always work and isn’t a long-term solution.
😭 yeah… It’s such pain to have to fight someone who’s fighting dirty. You either have to figure out how to beat them anyway, or get dirty yourself, and dems weren’t ready to get dirty yet.
Why? Why release someone on house arrest who is a FUCKING RAPIST AND HUMAN TRAFFICKING GANG LEADER? How is that in the best interests of anyone but this POS?
If they only would have let Obama appoint his justice! Then RBG could have retired instead of dying on the bench trying to hang on until a dem president. That whole shit was so underhanded, and then the GOP called it BS when dems tried to keep out a literal rapist.
After making a comment like you did (rather proving the previous commenter’s point), I would say yes. But are you happy? What kind of person do you want to be - one who reacts because you care too much about a supposed flaw, or one who defies the stereotype and doesn’t even recognize a “short man syndrome” comment because it’s so far from your reality? You choose.
Yeah, I get what you’re saying, but between more money and a ping pong table, which do you think most people would choose? If they wanted to imply a more casual/fun/less-stress environment, they should have said that, but implying a ping pong table would motivate people to stay is like thinking dangling your keys in front of a baby to stop its crying will keep it happy forever. At least a pay raise is helpful to me.
Listen, speaking as an American, we know Danes have better quality of life, but we’ll be damned if we will sacrifice capitalism to get there! Our motto is “if you’re not working, you’re losing money!” That only applies to the lower ranks, of course.
Seriously tho, I would love to live in a society that expects companies to hold the well-being of their employees over profits (not that these two are mutually exclusive), and the culture is changing slowly, but we’re not there yet.
