i am aware how stupid it is to keep waiting for a person to magically appear and, just with his presence, solve everything in my life
call me morbid, call me pale... i do not feel like leaving my bed anymore
i always thought of myself as a man capable of figuring things out, come up with solutions to my problems (despite how easy or difficult they were), and not depending on anyone, but lately i feel like i am not that person anymore
i wish i had a savior... it implies so many inconveniences, though

Hi there halfaperson, Thanks for your post. I can definitely relate: there have been many times in my life when I haven't wanted to leave my bed and wanted a man to appear and make everything better. Life is tough, and having someone to share things with can sometimes make it easier to cope. I still haven't found a person to share things with, but I have found ways of bolstering my own self-esteem and focusing on my own wellbeing that have made life much easier. It sounds like you're being very hard on yourself at the moment. We all go through low points, and no one can ben expected to have the answers to all their problems. Just because you're not feeling quite as capable at the moment, doesn't mean that you won't in the future, however. There are lots of ways that we can all enrich our lives an encourage good mental health that can be done without the need for someone to swoop in and help us out. Though please, do ask for help from others when you need it, that's what friends, family, and other relationships are there for. It's also the reason that there are LGBTQ+ specific support services out there. Have you considered speaking with a therapist? There are some great LGBTQ+ specialists out there, like ELOP, which offers therapy to queer people across the UK digitally. www.elop.org/You can also call Switchboard, an LGBTQ+ helpline which is staffed by queer volunteers. Call 0300 330 0630, email chris@switchboard.lgbt, webchat switchboard.lgbt/I hope you find some of the above helpful. Please do come back and let us know how you're getting along. Justin |
