    I’ve lost the things that make me happy. My wife, my dogs, the closest things that I’ll ever have to children, and I’ll never have them back. Every day seemed like a frantic chase to a goal that I’ll never see, and as I plod along, I become an emptier shell than the day I was before.

    What would be the point?

    If you are happy you are a target, you still haven’t lost hope and you still have something that can be taken away.

    I’m lonely and hate myself, and I hate myself too much to move towards not being lonely.

    Also I’m in the Navy, and I work insane hours.

    Almost every issue I have right now goes back to billionaires, fascism, or capitalism. The last two years have been the most difficult of my life so far, and literally existential. I just nearly avoided statelessness and now I can’t legally work following a layoff, so I’ve been living off of savings

    Because 46 and lost remote job, and after working a year from home dread having to go into work. Especially with gas what it is and I live in shit hole state with no public transportation. Add to the fact that I must try find work in this economy while dealing with ageism. Just fucking hate this shit.

    just found out my boyfriend of nearly 9 years has been emotionally cheating on me for the last 3 months, thanks to a drunken slip-up. what’s funny is it would’ve been fine if it was just sex, but no… boundaries had to be tested.

    I miss happiness
