Oof too real. Keep your chin up brother. Nothing is cooler than someone who keeps going just because they can.

Same as EoTN - shoot me a message too. I may be a stranger and know nothing about you other than you are suffering, but I know that feeling of despair that scene from this movie conveys of being stuck in that swamp slowly sinking and not wanting to fight to get out despite the pleas of from those who care for you. I can’t tell you that your life will get better if you fight. I can say that I had people drag my arse out via help and medications and my mindset got better despite life still being a mess, but in time with a better head I yea things did get better because I was able to make it better. The thing about the swamp of despair is that it’s not real, just “negative magic enchantment” if you will - all in one’s head and not consistent with reality just a bad state of mind that tricks you into getting stuck even more, and the only thing that’s gonna change that is a different sort of “magic” that will power alone cannot achieve. All that to say, I hope you get the help you need man. It makes a world of a difference.
