I think Lemmy, Reddit and all the rest are making me angry, depressed and hopeless (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

It's just, too much, so much bad and evil happening and I can't take it, nor can I look away.

I use these platforms to distract from the gnawing constant loneliness I feel that never goes away.

I can't spend more than 5 minutes without a video playing or checking some kind of media to fill the void.

I'm feeling so suicidal nowadays, but I'm stuck in this existence for the time being.

I've spent a lot of this week blocking news communities and anything related to politics, ongoing conflicts, places that hate me because of where I live, and just anything that puts me in a mood.

It's been getting quite slow on my front page as a result.

If I want to be pissed off and anxious about things outside my control, I have another account on a different instance. I used to be a prolific commenter but since I made this account I've been using the other one less and less. It just gets me down.

Block things. You won't regret it.
