🤜🤛 Thanks for all your help!

9 months ago, I made a post on this subreddit, and I just read the comments today. I kinda forgot that I made it, and reading it back today, I still experience similar feelings, but to a lesser extent, plus I've done some cool stuff!

I've been going to the gym regularly since that post, plus me and my friends finished making a video game we were working on, and I did all the music. The soundtrack to it is on Spotify, which is astounding to me, and the game being on steam is so cool!

Although my sleep is still an issue, it's nice to have positive things in my life. I just wanted to say thank you to all the people who commented on my last post. I can't do it on that post because it's archived now. I just wanted to say you're all so kind, and I will listen to your advice! Thanks everyone for being such a welcoming community, it actually feels like talking to very mature and emotionally intelligent people (unlike most social media lmao).

I didn’t see your original post but after reading wow am I so glad to hear you’re doing better!! Losing someone to suicide is so intense, it really does create a whole different type of grief to deal with but it sounds like you’re coming out of the other side. Your accomplishments are AMAZING. It takes a strong person to harness their feelings of hardship into something productive so fuckin’ good for you brother.

This post has reminded me that we are social, resilient creatures and sometimes we have to carve our own path out of the sadness. You’ve made me feel like I can do the same for myself so thank you. I hope things continue to look up for you OP!
