What are you doing to feel less alone right now?
I’m alone and living in a city where I don’t know anyone, so I’m alone all the time and don’t talk to anyone face to face... I facetime friends and family (9 hr time diff), but I think the isolation and lack of live human contact and interaction is really getting to me. I think I’ve been coping with overeating and constant screen time. I feel so out of control.

How do you bring up to someone you’ve known for a bit that you have feelings for them? (Friend from college for example). Every time I’ve told someone I’ve had the slightest liking toward them, they backed away and we eventually lost contact. I don’t want to give off that I’m “obsessed” but how do I say I’m interested in them past the general compliments friends give each other?

I recently met my close friend’s boyfriend and he made a good impression…until he tackled me. Now I don’t know how to raise it with my friend. My friend and I live in different parts of the country so I was looking forward to both of them visiting me since it seems like her happiest relationship. We were enjoying a picnic in the park by the lake and I don’t even know why but he started saying he wanted to rassle me (or however wrestling would be spelled in a fake accent) but (Cont…)

SO says I don’t acknowledge things for what they are and I try to find excuses. It’s been a big red flag for him and he sees it as immaturity and shadiness. I think he takes what I do the wrong way, and only try to explain my intent. I don’t know how to fix this

Looking for advice on personal space in a relationship. Been in thus relationship for 6 months. I date here and there but have not been in a serious relationship in a long time. Been working late M-F since COVID started. I usually call my gf after work or before I go to sleep and we talk for an hr or so each night. And on Fridays I go to her place right after work and stay the weekend. I’m finding a lack of my own time because it’s either work or her throughout the week and weekends...

Cheated on my ex here and there throughout our 2 years together. When covid hit, I broke it off after a few months bc we couldn't see each other for who knew how long and it was causing a lot of fighting.

I've tried hooking up with random girls but none of that helps fill the hole she's left in me 😞 idk if I'll find anyone as perfect as her again

I’m depressed. Nothing unique about my depression - I’m in big law, my career defines me, when I’m not working I can’t find the will to get off the couch, I’m sad or I’m numb…I know I’m the only one that can make a change to my life…I’m on antidepressants. Just extremely unmotivated and paralyzed. Self-help books are not for me, but I am curious - has anyone tried a guided depression/anxiety journal? Any recommendations if so? Or, if you have experienced the same, what steps did you take?

I’m so depressed

My parents are likely going to get divorced - I am worried about my dad. I am fairly confident he has anxiety/depression (I struggle with anxiety and we lost cousin on dads side from suicide) and refuses to get help. I don’t know how he will manage when he lives by himself. Has anyone dealt with divorced parents, especially those with mental health issues? I’m only 24, I work 50 hours a week and cannot take care of him. Extended family members are not in the picture.

Girlfriend has very obvious high functioning anxiety and body image issues that she admits but thinks she doesn’t need therapy or medication and that reading self-help books will help her. It’s not changing in the last several years and it’s impacting our relationship. Anyone have experience with their SO dealing with untreated anxiety? I know I can’t control her but would like to express my feelings without sending her into a spiral. For context, I’ve been in therapy for 12 months and medicated

I got promoted, but so did the other guy. We’re on a small team and all I can do is compare myself to him and obsess over what that conversation must have looked like. Who was closer? Who was better? Etc.
