I have a question, I've been thinking of exploring religion. I know religion might not be the right word for spirituality, but I'm kind of bad with words/explaining things, so I will try to clarify as best as I can. I feel like there's more out there for me, not sure what.

But I've been looking for a place I feel like I belong, I've been trying out tarot and something about it has been sticking to me, I guess being able to ask for guidance and receiving advice that isn't biased.

I absolutely love nature, space, and the world around us. Does spirituality fit what I'm looking for? Or am I way off. Thank you for the help!

Age: 24

Relationship status: Engaged

Hobbies: Gaming, listening to music, watching YouTube videos, stargazing, arts and crafts, enjoying nature.

Games I like: Stardew Valley, Minecraft, GTA: San Andreas, Cult of the Lamb, Baldur's Gate 3, Escape from Tarkov, etc.

Others: I’m also not that great when it comes to being social due to mental health issues (Depression, Anxiety, PTSD and Borderline Personality Disorder). Some days are better than others, it depends on my social battery… so I apologize if I’m a bit quiet, or disappear for long moments at a time. Trying to work on that.

(That’s all I can think of as of right now on what to say about myself, but I hope you guys are having a great day/afternoon/night! Feel free to dm me, my dms are open! Only those above the age of 18 message me please.)

Hey everyone, I was looking for some tips on how to make genuine friendships. I hope this doesn't come off as me venting, I'm not so great with words... So bear with me.

I've been trying to make friends wether it's online or in person, but I always find it so hard to find people who are truly genuine. I don't know if I'm doing something wrong or not.

Are there any suggestions you guys have that might help? Thanks!

When I go to message someone it says ____ is offline, I know there's a fallback setting that'll have it where it sends as an SMS automatically if RCS is not available. But for me it doesn't seem like it automatically does it, I always have to wait a few minutes then press and old the message before forcing the switch myself.

Is that a bug? Or is there something I need to do to fix it.

Currently I'm dealing with a big wave of mental exhaustion, things just seem to keep happening and it's not willing to give me a break. To give a slight backstory, I deal with a lot of trauma and mental health issues (BPD, generalized anxiety disorder, ptsd, and depression), so moments like these aren't uncommon.

But recently things have gotten pretty hard again, recently all it has ever felt like lately is people only see me as a therapist friend, my mom sees me as a bank account. I feel like no matter what I do, no matter how hard I stick to my boundaries... and no matter how much I try, I can't keep/find anyone genuine. I do have a small group of people in my life that aren't like that, but we off and on talk (Not in a bad way, they're just bad with texting, just like me.).

Now... don't get me wrong, I absolutely love that people feel safe with me to be able to open up, but sometimes it becomes too much... I could talk about my struggles and they will change it to make it about them, or I'll say that my mental health is doing bad and they'll just dump everything on me.

With my mom, she constantly asks me for money, I could tell her that I don't have the money, or that it's not really my job to pay for every little thing when she has a job and I don't (My mental and physical health makes it hard for me to keep a job.). I'm not hostile when she asks, but when I say no to her, she gets passive aggressive and will try to guilt trip me.

I'm sorry if this is long, and if all of this is ramble... but I'm just... kind of lost.

Some of my hobbies are, gaming, listening to music, watching YouTube videos, stargazing, arts and crafts, enjoying nature. The games I like to play kind of flip flop depending on my mood, but some games I play are Paralives, Spyro, Super Mario, Stardew Valley, Minecraft, Farm to Table.

I’m also not that great when it comes to being social due to mental health issues (Depression, Anxiety, PTSD and Borderline Personality Disorder). Some days are better than others, it depends on my social battery… so I apologize if I’m a bit quiet, or disappear for long moments at a time. Trying to work on that.

I can't wait to meet you guys and my DM's are open to anyone! 🌸

I recently updated my phone to the 8.5 update and I've noticed my phone overheats a lot more than usual, sometimes when I'm just casually using my phone but especially if I'm using my cars Bluetooth it'll heat up to the point where it restarts itself I guess as a protection. I haven't had these problems before this update, is there anything you guys have done that have helped? Or is this a situation where you just have to ride it out until Samsung gets on-top of this problem....

This one might be a bit of a long or all over the place kind of post, and I'm sorry if it is... I don't really have a lot of people I can truly talk to about what's on my mind (I do have a therapist I talk to about these kinds of things). Life has just been so hard lately, I'll express to my friends or people around me that I'm not in a good spot mentally, yet all they do is come to me to vent. Don't get me wrong, I love the fact that they feel safe and trust me when it comes to venting, but there's a time and a place in my mind.. it just makes me feel like I'm not a friend but just a therapist. For example, my late father's 9 year anniversary was Monday my one friend knew this because I made a post about it and they know that July 6th will always be a hard day for me... and they vented to me talking about how their dad disowned them.

Another thing I've been dealing with is my mom, I don't feel like a daughter to her but a piggy bank. As a kid, my mother was always neglecting me... I used to eat a lot as a kid, but mostly because I was a super active kid. I practically lived outside because I was always outside, running around and being a kid... but she'd always call be fat or say I'll get fat when I'm older if I keep eating like that. She'd try to dictate how I dress, act, and sit.. almost like I have to be a proper lady. But now all I get is I need money, and if I say no she gets passive aggressive saying things like "Well if guess I'll figure it out myself, I have no money."

One last thing that I struggle with is insecurities and loneliness. With the way my mom along with other people or past relationships only being with me for sex and cheating on me along with just people constantly making jabs at how I look... saying either I'm too skinny and I need to eat more or I'm too fat and I need to eat less along with how small my breasts are. I absolutely hate the way I look... no matter how many people say I'm beautiful, I just struggle to belive it. And for the loneliness part, I absolutely struggle with making genuine friends who want to be apart of my life, not just for money, or for a therapist.

(I currently struggle with borderline personality disorder, depression, generalized anxiety disorder, and ptsd)
