I’m honestly really frustrated and don’t understand this change. I used Reddit a lot, but with the new age verification rules I can barely use it anymore. Even DMs and message requests are locked, and a lot of basic features suddenly feel restricted. I understand that age verification for NSFW content makes sense and is probably necessary. But I don’t agree with basic features like messaging and normal interaction being locked behind it as well. I’m not really comfortable with giving away personal information just to access basic functions. At this point, it feels like there’s not much point using the app anymore if so many features are blocked.

Im not feeling well I have so much in my head I just want to talk with someone cuz I feel so lonely right now I have no one to talk to and I just wanna cry

I genuinely don’t know what I’m doing with my life Im wasting my time Im gonna be so depressed this summer i wanna distract myself myself through the day but end up rotting in bed Im trying to find work but I have no energy Im sad all the time i don’t know what’s going on with me since this year started I got so depressed only bad things happened to me I just cry all the time why do I exist my life is completely useless if I keep this up no one is gonna love me I feel so so empty writing this i don’t know what to do Im so disappointed at myself..

A while ago, when I was going through a really difficult time, I made a post about how depressed and overwhelmed I felt. A guy reached out to me and asked if I was okay. He was struggling too, so we started talking about our problems and trying to support each other.

He had been through something truly terrible, and I always tried to comfort him.

We lived in different countries, so the time zones
were completely different. I never minded if he replied lateI was just happy to hear from him whenever he could.

A few days later, I was scrolling through my chats and noticed that his Reddit account had been deleted. I don’t know if he deleted it himself or if it was banned, but ever since then I’ve been really worried. We didn’t talk every day, but I genuinely cared about him. Not knowing what happened hurts so much. I keep wondering if he’s okay, or if he might have tried to hurt himself. I really hope that’s not the case.

I just want you to know that I haven’t forgotten you, and I truly hope you’re safe. 😞❤️‍🩹

Idk if I’m the only one but this year is so bad literally nothing happened good this is the worst year ever I got so depressed what the hell this year feels like a waste of time I did nothing special I couldn’t even make friends I hope next year will be a better year

I thought maybe if I opened up to people and talk about my problems would change something or get comforted but no all they do is misunderstanding me the pain remains Im so tired I don’t wanna survive i wanna live i don’t know what to do I feel like any help i get doesn’t work maybe i don’t deserve to get helped Im just a pathetic girl who needs attention to get help i don’t know how else I get help but i don’t need it anymore I think I need to accept faith i don’t know why I exist to feel al this pain Im only thinking to end it I got many night where I couldn’t sleep only planning how to commit it I guess I gotta say goodbye my friends…..

I can’t take this pain anymore Im completely useless and a failure my dad just hurt me with his words Im so sensitive and crying the whole time I wanna run out of the house I just wanna cry in someone’s arm and hide my face in his neck i just wanna hide in someone I hate that he has so much effect on me just one stern look it makes my heart ache but I don’t know how much pain I can take it hurts so much Im so damaged I don’t wanna live anymore he is destroying me and I’m just silently taking it like a good girl

I’m so tired of myself and I just need to get this off my chest. I’ve never hated anyone as much as I hate myself. I’m just a messed up child. I wish I didn’t exist.

I hate what I’ve become because of him. I hate the way he raised me, with so much anger and so many strict rules. I’ve become nothing but a failure. I’m so childish. I feel like I’m never going to grow up and truly feel like a woman. I’m just a lost girl.

I’m scared of taking responsibility. I’m scared of failing. I’m scared of everything. I’m struggling to find work because I’m scared all the time. I don’t want to work. I don’t want to do anything. In my head, I’m just a little girl who wanna be taken care off and get whatever she needs.

I’m so sensitive that I flinch whenever he raises his voice at me. I want to depend on someone all the time, but I don’t want that at the same time. I just want to be a normal girl. I don’t want to be needy all the time. I constantly crave attention from men, and I hate that I’ve become like this. I wish I didn’t exist. I feel like I’m never going to be a good wife or girlfriend. No one is ever going to love me. Im so so disappointed in myself I never thought I would end up like this…I’ve been depressed for so long and struggling with staying alive one thing I will never understand is why do I have to suffer so much..

I’m a complete failure.

This is something I’ve been wondering about for a long time, and I honestly can’t find an answer that fully makes sense to me.

Nowadays we know that people can struggle with things like depression, trauma, anxiety, personality disorders, or even issues caused by how they were raised. Some people have serious daddy issues, mommy issues, abandonment issues, or other problems that can affect them for years. What I’m confused about is how this fits into Islam. I’ve tried looking into it, but I mostly find answers about making du’a, reading Qur’an, having sabr, or doing ruqyah. While I believe those things are important, I find it hard to believe that they are the complete answer to every mental or emotional struggle.

Were these kinds of issues discussed by early Muslims or classical scholars? How would someone during the Prophet’s time have understood a person who was deeply depressed, traumatized, or emotionally affected by their childhood?

My mental health is really bad Im depressed for so long and since It’s getting worse the pain hurts more in my heart I have no one to talk to or be with and I’m worried cuz I can’t even cry no privacy I just wanna cry it out it’s the best way but I have no where to go even under the shower i can’t and my heart aches so much I just don’t know what to do with my life Im getting crazy I feel like I’m losing myself….

I wanna write but writing makes me cry and beside I throw them in trash in the end so no one can read it I tried to go for a walk but the thoughts just haunt me I don’t know I feel so helpless Im so fucked up cuz I’m trying to comfort myself with watching gore or ph to distract myself I do forget and get distracted by it Sometimes but I don’t wanna make it a habit Im so scared of what I’m gonna become I just want peace i can’t find it in my home I wish I had a home…

Can someone please help me ways to distract myself or out my pain then crying cuz I know I won’t have privacy anywhere 😞
