  • Finding strength through creativity — how poetry and hobby programming help me live with mental illness

  • You touched upon a very important point about current AI use, I think. It made me think we need more empathy for imperfection, rather than technology that would help us avoid criticism.

    But I can see your point of not wanting to be rejected (let alone abused!). In this sense, if using LLMs gives you some comfort, I take my words back. Write however you like, just know that some people (like me) will appreciate your uniqueness better even when it shows in your mistakes.

  • I meant that this post sounds suspiciously like it was written by ChatGPT. As such, it makes me angry to spend time with something a machine generated.

    I am not discouraging you to make use of programming or poetry to improve your wellbeing. If either of those help, do approach it in whichever way you like, AI or not. I am also sorry to hear of your experience of feeling unwelcome in programming communities. I can imagine how someone telling you to read the manual can be unhelpful and demotivating.

    What I tried to say was that I would much rather read about all this through your unfiltered words. Even if your thoughts are not always perfectly organised, I would apprrciate them better than anything an LLM can generate.

    What do I do when it gets to a point where I just wanna dissapear

  • Dear canadianchik, just to add that if you want to get in touch with your ex again, you can do it; he'll tell you himself in case you annoy him, no need to anticipate his feelings. I also read that you applied for therapy, that's a great step! Even if it's online and it takes you a bit more time to open up, it might really help you long term. Again, I am keeping my fingers crossed for you!

  • Hey benignintervention! Just wanted to say I really liked your view of things. I am so glad things turned out for the better for you. I am sure you still have your ups and downs, as we all!, but it is so encouraging to read what helped you and what did not. Even though this reply was addressed to someone else, it really brightened my evening to read how you handled things - for better or for worse. Thank you so much!

  • Hey again, canadianchik! Thank you for going into some more details about your situation. I feel like I could understand you a bit better.

    It sucks when you can't really connect with your parents. It's a bit funny, but it really doesn't matter how old we are, we always seek validation from parents. The good news is that this relationship can also change, but I do acknowledge it's not easy. We are so caught up in our parent-child roles and there is a lot of history to overcome.

    As for your ex, I get that you finally found someone nice in him after all those years of heartbreak. Now, breaking up with him hurts so much more because of this. I am really sorry to hear this, I am! I also noticed that despite you saying you made a mistake, you also mentioned you are still friends. To me that proves your mistake was not as grave after all, even if it caused your break up.

    In both of these situation, I would just like to encourage you to accept your emotions as they are. You might be jealous of your siblings. You might be scared of your dad. You might miss your ex. You might be possessive of him. To all of this I say: so what! These are your feelings, your reactions to what is happening to you. Knowing that time will heal or that you have "high functioning" depression does not change your experience one bit. So, own it. For now, this is how you feel and that's alright as well. ❤️‍🩹

  • Hey canadianchik, your post touched me. It seems like you are overwhelmed, there is so much in this post alone to unpack. I know how much it hurts to lose a loved one. When you are so close to someone, it is very difficult to imagine life without them. We would do anything in our power to keep them close. Compound this with family who don't understand and being lonely, and you've got a perfect storm! I don't have any good advice for you (I'm sure others will), but I just want to send some nice thoughts your way. Even when it does not seem so, your situation will improve and your life will get brighter. I am sure of it! Until then, I am keeping my fingers crossed for your days to be light.
