What has happened to me in the past months

[Pyromaniac27]

well, for those of you who know me, i have been gone for quite some time but im back with some personal problems and crap. in the past months my family has lost two loved ones, one animal we have had for a long time, and our house. my dad is an asshole and im depressed af. i somt know how this could help but i feel like just putting this out there so i can get it in the open.

Well I imagine losing an animal is very tough. My parents had a cat, but it died when I was still quite young...so I don't think I grasped the situation like I would now. If I were in your shoes, I would just remember the happiness and joy that your pet brought you. keep yourself reminded with pictures and things like that.

And your house? What's going on there? Not really sure how to approach that one without really knowing what happened.

Basically, it really doesn't matter why the house is lost. Or whether a familiar pet died.

Above all the point is the feeling of a loss. In any case, whoever expieriences this must find a way that grief doesn't lead into deep depression.

After you had gone away I had hoped that maybe things in your life have improvedbefore a bit.
I'm sorry to hear those th8ngs happened.
We are all here to listen and all of course.

Everyone and everything dies. And that's okay. You can still experience happiness right now. That's the important thing. Try not to think so much about the past or the future because the past is gone and the future is unpredictable. The only thing in your control is the present. I've always found that the most fulfilling thing to do in times of depression is to meditate, realize the reasons for depression, and then give back to others in some way such that they will be less likely to feel pain similar to that which you have felt. By doing so, you are making an impact on the present world as well as yourself. You will feel fulfilled and others will experience less suffering.

Well im back so i think this should probably now be called what has happened to me over the past few years. I've gotten my life together: stopped drinking, got over my self harm problems, and became overall more happy. The key is to find an activity or hobby that you like and stick with it, surround yourself with people who love you or love being around you and to try to think with a mentality of How can i get over this? instead of a mentality of This sucks, my life sucks. Thank you to all of you for caring about me and being my friends on here. Especially Microcosm and Dalcourt

[Karkat]

Good advice. I've tried to keep that mentality lately, even though life has been complete hell lately. Good on ya
