I'm 24. I think before I was born, I was chosen by the universe to suffer.

I was an introvert growing up, and hardly spoke with people.

Got bullied for most of my childhood till 7th grade.

Then again got bullied in 11th and 12th.

I've always been able to push through, work super hard through all of it, and now I'm working a job.

From the past 3-4 years, I've been super depressed and I've lost all my charm. I've tried super hard to come out of it. I chose running as my way to express myself, and everything was going on plan for me to attempt my full-marathon. Life tested me again by throwing an injury and tuberculosis.

I don't look the best (i.e have a lean body type), so it's pretty common for people to say something / the other about my body. It's not that I don't want to change, it's just that I can't stay consistent because of the depression.

Every night it's the same. I fake my personality the whole day, and suffer in the night. There's been days where I've sat the entire day in the dark and do nothing. Literally nothing

It's tough when you supress your feelings for your entire life. No one understands, even my parents don't think anything of it. Im at a point where I feel I'm gonna explode.

I wish it all ends soon.

I know I posted last week, but I wanted to test my luck again...

I was always confident, and super grateful for the way I was. From the time I've faced extreme depression, I've given up on myself, get triggered for the smallest of things. I was always kind growing up, and would be the first to help people out. Now, I just don't even care what's happening around me, and it pains knowing that this is not who I really am.

People around me just don't understand what I'm going through. And I think that's the problem. People in general don't take depression seriously, because they don't know what people actually go through during it. It's something you can't explain, and can only experience for yourself.

I was close to suiciding a few times, but idk why, I was able to prevent myself at the last minute.

I'm typing this while sitting alone in some corner on one of the busiest streets in my city lol ;)

I've gone through a lot from my childhood, in almost all aspects, whether it was bullying, friends, comments I faced, etc and being an introvert did not help as I wasn't able to share my feelings with anyone. I was able to push through and focus, and ended up getting a job. However, for the last 2 1/2 years, I've been super depressed, somehow counting the days pass.

I'm honestly wasting my time, and I'm scared what my future looks like. Last weekend, I just sat in my room in the dark for the whole time. I see everyone around me progressing, following their dreams, and I'm just there trying to exist.

Over time, I have lost faith in people, so I don't make any efforts to maintain relationships.

I don't have anyone who I can rely on if things do go wrong, and I wish life could end soon :)

Pretty much the title of the post. Maybe we could go for some bowling at Amoeba, or just roam & get some ramen?

Profile is open, so feel free to have a look. Drop a dm if you're interested :)

I'm into photography / running, tennis, pickleball / cooking, and I work as an SDE (i.e sadly just like the 99% of the rest of Bangalore).

Ps: Purely just for socializing & meeting new people outside of my usual social circle, and do not have any intentions of dating, etc. And yea, I'm 24M.

I have absolutely zero energy to do anything. Just walking or speaking a few words in itself, feels like a big task. It's honestly sad that it's come to this point. I was always very ambitious, had big dreams & goals that I wanted to achieve. But all I see now is time flying by, with me stuck at the same place I was 2 years back, and seeing everyone else move on with their lives.

I was an introvert growing up. Went through a lot of bullying, didn't know how to share my emotions with others, nor did I have people who actually cared. I get harsh remarks about my physique, even when I'm just minding my own business. I usually don't take things like this seriously, but the hate piles up within you over time, like a bubble that's about to burst. I don't even remember most of my childhood, cause of all the trauma.

I was able to work on myself through the noise for a large chunk of my life, but from the past couple of years, I've just given up.

None of the people who I know understand what I'm going through, nor is it worth the effort for me to explain to them. I just feel there's no point burdening others.

I just isolate myself from everyone, and the silence makes me feel better. I really wish that things get better, but at the same time I wish I die soon too, since I don't have the courage to end it all.

But anyways, hope whoever is reading this has a great day ahead!

I've watched way too many Japanese fashion reels on insta, so now I wanna try to make an outfit for myself 👀

Might be a silly question, but when you use Trial reels, do likes & shares appear in the insights or is it just views?

I've posted a couple of videos for the first time using Trial, but I see there are no likes so I was wondering.

Anyways, thanks.

Which do you think I should go for? I'm planning to use it for both photography & videography (i.e 60%-40%)

Sony a6600 + Tamron 17-70 -> 97,000 rupees

Sony a6700 + Tamron 17-70 -> 1,59,000 rupees

My initial budget was around 1 lakh, but if it is really worth it, then I will make the exception for the a6700. Is there a huge difference between the a6600 to the a6700?

I'm planning to buy a mirrorless camera, for around 1 lakh. Would love to hear some recommendations on which to take?

These are some features, that I would preferably like to have, but if most are met, I'm okay :

• Will be using it for both photography & videography
• APS-C sensor
• In-Body Stabilization
• Should work well with a normal SD card, and not only CFExpress.
• Dual-exposure out of the box (i.e although I've heard sony cameras don't support it)

My usual doubles partner can’t make it, so I’m looking for someone to team up with for a pickleball tournament that's happening tomorrow in HSR.

A bit about me:

• 24 years old
• Intermediate player
• Played tennis for several years
• Only a couple of pickleball tournaments under my belt, so my DUPR isn’t fully settled yet.

Looking for someone with a DUPR around 3.3–3.6.

If anyone's interested, send over a dm.
