I think a mental health PSA is sorely needed in this thread. I wrote this as part of other comments I was going to make, but I'm not fully moved to share my personal opinions. That said, this PSA should not wait.
While this thread has benefits in providing cathartic release, it is nowhere near sufficient for aiding your mental health by itself. You are ultimately responsible for building your own victories. You can work towards your own victory with the proper help.
If you're in a position to seek help, then you should consider doing so. EmuEmi, a prolific Sonic content creator,
vouches for mental health support in her YouTube video. In it, she supports
BetterHelp online counseling.
No solution is perfect, as BetterHelp has its
fair criticisms. But if physical access is an issue for you, then a licensed solution such as BetterHelp is better than an improvised one like this thread.
If physical access is not a problem but financial access is, then consider
Open Path Psychotherapy Collective for substantial discounts on in-person therapy. Or, your local city/county might offer such services to you for free. To find such services, you may Google "[your city/county] community mental health" or dial 411 in the US to ask for assistance.
Finally, consider asking your national suicide hotline for assistance; they're not just for last resort. Review this
international list and
FAQs for suicide hotlines. Or, you can use the
Crisis Text Line by texting HOME to 741741.
Anyway, that's a lot of resources and not all of them may apply to you personally. But they're there if you need them, and you should absolutely use them. Once more, no solution is perfect, but a licensed solution can provide many more benefits to you than an improvised one.
