Hello,

I'm 28F from India, and I'm looking for a writing buddy.

I don't write professionally. It's just something I genuinely enjoy. I have been writing since I was a kid, and I actually wrote two novels in my native language when I was around 14. They weren't perfect, but they made me fall in love with storytelling.

My writing style is pretty simple. I don't use flowery language or fancy words just for the sake of it. I like writing emotions, characters that feel real, and stories that make people feel something. So what I struggle with isn't writing itself. It's ideas. Sometimes I get stuck, and that's exactly why I'm here.

I'm looking for someone who's passionate about writing and enjoys brainstorming, discussing plots and characters, exchanging honest feedback, motivating each other, and even writing together sometimes. I read and write across different genres, so I'm open to pretty much anything. We will meet on discord.

If you decide to message me, please include a short piece of your writing (around 10 lines is enough). It can be from anything you've already written or something you come up with on the spot. I'd love to see if our writing styles and creative wavelengths match.

Also, please don't just send "Hi." Tell me a little about yourself, what you like writing, and what you're currently working on.

Hopefully, I'll find someone who's just as excited about storytelling as I am.

I don't even know how to explain what I'm feeling anymore. Lately, I feel incredibly hollow. Not just sad, but empty. Like there's this huge void inside me that I can't fill no matter what I do. I have my parents and friends who love me and support me. Yet, I feel incredibly lonely.

Lately, I have lost interest in almost everything that used to make me feel alive. Reading books, watching movies, anime and everything I genuinely loved. I used to get excited about starting a new book or discovering a new film. Now I just stare at them. I pick up a book, read two lines, and put it back. I open Netflix and close it within 5 minutes. Nothing holds my attention. Nothing feels enjoyable anymore. I don't even feel like studying at all which I should be doing at any cost.

I don't look forward to the future. There was a time when I had plans, goals, things I wanted to achieve. I was full of dreams, potential and lots of ambition. Now I just exist. Every day feels like I'm simply getting through it rather than living it.

My mind feels like a constant battlefield. It's never quiet. There are always thoughts racing around, but I can't even tell what they're about anymore. It's just constant mental noise. I feel restless all the time. I'm always fidgeting, unable to relax, yet at the same time I don't even want to get out of bed. It's like my mind is running a marathon while my body has completely shut down.

I've also noticed my sleep has changed. Some days I sleep too much, some days I can't sleep properly, and even after sleeping I don't feel rested.

I cry so easily now. Sometimes there isn't even a reason. I'll just suddenly feel this wave of sadness and my eyes fill with tears. It's like I'm grieving something, but I don't even know what.

I have become so emotionally sensitive to the world around me. Whenever I read about horrific crimes, violence, wars, abuse, or people and children suffering, it affects me so deeply that it stays with me for days. It feels like I'm carrying the weight of everyone's pain, even though I know I can't do anything about it.

The loneliness is probably the hardest part.

I do feel alone a lot, but at the exact same time, I dread conversations. Replying to messages feels exhausting and draining. Meeting people feels overwhelming. I hate conversation, people and the world in general. I don't understand why I'm like this.

Even existing feels exhausting. Getting out of bed, brushing my teeth, taking a shower, doing basic things. Going for studying, walking, doing my hobbies, it all feels like climbing a mountain some days.

I want to be clear about one thing, I am not suicidal, and I have no intention of hurting myself. I love my parents more than anything, and I could never put them through that. I also don't want to give up. I just don't want to feel like this anymore.

I'm thinking about seeing a psychiatrist because this has been getting worse, but before I do, I wanted to ask people who have actually experienced depression or other mental health conditions.

Your help will be truly appreciated.

Thank you for reading.

Hello,

If you got Berserk, One Piece, or Spy×family manga volumes that you want to sell, please reach out to me.

Thank you!!

Hello all!

I am 28F from India, and I am looking for a STRICT accountability partner.

So, I have ADHD, and if you have it too, you probably already know how ridiculously difficult it is to stay consistent with daily life. I can spend hours hyperfocusing on something interesting, but I struggle immensely with everyday tasks that actually matter. I procrastinate, get distracted, and often need external accountability to stay on track.

I am currently preparing for competitive exams, and I am genuinely trying to get my life together. I have a few daily goals that I absolutely need to stick to such as studying, keeping up with current happenings, reading around 80–100 pages, walking 10k steps, meditating for 10 minutes, eating properly, losing some weight, sleeping on time, journaling, and even watching at least one movie and anime every week. Basically, normal adult stuff that somehow feels like climbing Everest.

The problem is, I make excuses. A lot. That's why I am looking for someone who won't let me get away with them. Not in a rude way, obviously. But if I say, "I'll do it later," I want someone who'll say, "No. Go do it now." So basically someone who will be actually very much strict. And of course, I'd do the exact same for you.

Here is a little about me-

I am a huge reader. Like, I have a personal library at home, and buying books is probably my biggest personality trait and source of dopamine kick at this point. I love reading thrillers, literary fiction, fantasy, classics, horrors, philosophy, true crime, etc. I also love watching movies, TV shows, anime, sports, and, honestly, I am curious about everything under the sun that catches my interest. If it's interesting, I'll probably disappear down that rabbit hole for a week. Classic ADHD, I know. 😂

I used to be a complete extrovert, but I think life has turned me into more of an ambivert. I still enjoy talking to people, just not all the time. I would take a deep conversation over 10 small talks any day.

I am looking for someone who is smart, nerdy, around my age or older (I just tend to get along better with older people), communicates well, and is genuinely serious about improving their life. You don't have to have ADHD, but it would definitely help if you understand what executive dysfunction feels like.

We could do daily check-ins, share our goals, focus on studying/work together sometimes, have reading sprints, maybe watch something together occasionally, and most importantly, keep each other accountable.

Now for the important part.

I AM NOT LOOKING FOR A RELATIONSHIP.

Please don't message me hoping this turns into something more or thinking you'll change my mind. You won't. Never.

Also, if you're someone who disappears after two days or only wants casual chatting, we are probably not looking for the same thing. I genuinely want to build a long-term accountability system with someone.

And please don't just send "Hi" or "Hey." Tell me a little about yourself. If you have read this entire post, start your message with your favorite book, movie, or anime. At least I will know you actually read it. 😂

Hopefully, there are people out there looking for the same thing.
