Hang on I’m going to need some help here I appear to have got myself into a logical loop.
I’m not depressed so I can’t play with trains but now I’m sad that I can’t play with trains. So I can play with trains? But now I’m not depressed anymore. So I guess I have to stop? Which makes me sad.
It’s a meme, guys.
Having a hobby and being part of a community is a very constructive, helpful, and effective way of beating back the isolation and despair that is killing so many young people.
I’m not following. Why is it being assumed this is to avoid therapy, and not just people doing an activity for fun?
People will bitch about anything someone else does that is therapeutic for them.
Learning to not do this was an important part of my mental health journey. I’ve come to realize I was raised by some very negative people. Very nice people that I see regularly, but always looking for something to complain about rather than something to appreciate.
