Look, I'm gonna lay this out on the line:

This place is fucking shit for my mental health.

It's that simple!

And it is *not* helped that any time I voice this, I get replies which one way or another make it clear it's my problem to solve.

I don't like being a whiny person, so largely I'm not. I recognize I've won life's lottery in lots of ways and have privileges many, MANY people don't.

But I am still a person.

And while I'm grateful for all the supportive replies I get here, there's sincerely about a 1:1 ratio between those and replies which push me away.

It is simply not fun for me to be here. And I'm damn sure that's not my problem.

@TechConnectify I just lurk and don’t reply. Oh no I’m replying. Aaggaggaghahahahhahggghhhhhhhhhhhhh. In all seriousness even if it’s a one to one ratio there are probably a bunch of other people who aren’t even going to reply who are definitely thinking yeah that guy is being an asshole.

He's being entertaining. It's called "having a sense of humour"
