• Hey Guest,

    We wanted to share a quick update with the community.

    Our public expense ledger is now live, allowing anyone to see how donations are used to support the ongoing operation of the site.

    Over the past year, increased regulatory pressure in multiple regions like UK OFCOM and Australia's eSafety has led to higher operational costs, including infrastructure, security, and the need to work with more specialized service providers to keep the site online and stable.

    If you value the community and would like to help support its continued operation, donations are greatly appreciated. If you wish to donate via Bank Transfer or other options, please open a ticket.

just rambling really, pay it no mind
recently both of my therapists and my family mentioned how well i'm doing right now, and how they're happy i'm this better
i can kind of agree to some level, looking back at the past 10 years, i'm quite ok-ish for a while now
last time self-harming or hospitalized was in 2018, i'm not even binge drinking anymore or doing recreational drugs
sobriety even seems feasible every now and then, some days alcohol doesn't even cross my mind
and yet a functional day-to-day life still seems so far-fetched, it's hard to stay optimistic while right now i'm only managing to stay alive and not hating it that much every second
i'm really giving it my everything but time waits for no one and i overstayed my welcome long ago
sometimes i just wonder how long much longer will it take, how much more can i wait it out and what even for
i don't even dare wish for happiness, i just want to be somewhat steady productive, financially ok and enjoy things once in a while
and even that i'm not sure i can ever achieve
feels like it'd take a miracle but i don't believe in those

i can only hope and put the effort in
