Feeling Very Nihilistic

Today, I'm feeling angry, frustrated, and deleted my instagram acccount. Now, after thinking it over and over, I'm wondering if I made a mistake.

I am disabled and housebound. However, I still want to find some way to make a career, online, preferably with art and music. I also have no means to socialize, outside of the internet. I am unable to just go out and talk to people.

Now, I am feeling very nihilistic, frustrated, and confused. I want to do without billionaire social platforms. I don't want to use a platform that supports genocide, steals data, etc.

But, do I have a choice? Is this just the world now? Am I stuck using these platforms (instagram, facebook, tiktok, youtube, etc) in order to socialize and make a career?

I know the fediverse is a thing, but for someone in my position, it can just be more isolating.

I'm feeling very hopeless right now, and like fighting this is pointless. I don't know what else to say. This is driving me crazy.

Anyone else have these feelings?

Is there an alternative?

Please share your thoughts and insights.

▲ 3 r/DID

Basically what the title says.

I'm living in Canada, at the moment. I am not happy here, and I want to leave. This is for personal reasons, that have nothing to do with DID.

I want to start a plan for leaving, over the next few years. The problem is, I'm having a hard time deciding which country to go to.

I decided to base my decision on which country will provide the best treatment and safety for someone with DID.

I am completely disabled by this condition, as well as physical disabilities. I cannot work or take care of myself, and I'm moving into a group home, soon.

I realize it's going to be difficult for someone like me to move and find care, if not impossible. However, I want to at least try and explore the idea.

Unfortunately, I think Canada really is the best option for this, at the moment. It seems other countries are not as advanced with treatment and care (according to my research, so far).

If anyone has any advice about this, please leave a reply.

Thanks
