Hello PIMD Just came on to make this thread, I’ve been a long time player (on and off for about 5 years) I’ve made friends I’ve lost friends. Lately I’ve felt so alone, after finding out my mom has cancer, and I’m busy struggling to get through nursing school. I feel like some of my rl friends are the only thing that keeps me a float. I’ve came back to the game with the anticipation of making new friends! So I wanna start a Friends make Friends thread. Not intended for relationship like this game is know for😘 much love and I hope to enjoy chatting with y’all!
That's awesome! It definitely sounds like she's got loved ones that will support her. Maybe her struggle with provide some personal motivation to complete your nursing, too. I know when my dog passed this year, it motivated me to get to work on the veterinary work I had been setting aside.
This is gonna sound so insensitive, but well happiness comes from within. The more we start to depend on people around us the harder it gets when they are not around us. It's good to have friwnds but people are not usually all that reliable and especially not the ones in some game who will just one day randomly disappear. As for your, may you have the strength to get through this and I hope your mother gets better with time or lives a good life no matter how long it is. I lost my mother to cancer as well in 2012. Things have never been the same. You get stronger and better though. Don't let the world make you a butter person. I would only like to say one thing: THIS TOO SHALL PASS.
Agreed. ^ Friends are great and all but when your happiness depends on whether you have friends or not: you set yourself up for a reality check when you realize that they rly don’t care. But hi, we can be forum friends. I.e we only speak in forums
The title of this post could've been worded better. Here's my rant: There's this chick that I know, and her parents died. She got custody of her teenage siblings. Then she takes them to the Dr and has them put on antidepressants. THEY'RE DEPRESSED BECAUSE THEIR FÜCKING PARENTS DIED! They don't have a chemical imbalance. They're sad and they have every reason to be, and treating it like a mental illness is doing them 0 favors. It irritates me. And that's why the title of this post irks me. I hope your mom's condition improves op.
I feel like a lot of mental illnesses are over diagnosed because of things like this. Rather than looking at the situation, ppl just assume something is wrong with them because they're not happy.
I honestly feel like the overdiagnosing is because pharmaceutical companies give doctors handouts for prescribing more of their medications, aka bringing the pharma companies more profit. While I am not against medication, as I find it to be very necessary for helping me live productively, I do think there is an issue with overdiagnosing and overmedicating ー and not necessarily just in the mental health field.
