Bio

hey, i'm Rain, a non-binary creature ^^

i used to love creating, making art, reading, etc. but since few months now i feel so bad about myself, i feel depressed, bored and unmotivated about everything that i do, lost and anxious about my future (cause idk what i want to do of my life and I'm unemployed), and also kinda lonely...

and i have no one to talk to about it, so i'd be glad to meet and talk to someone here, who might who knows gives me tips to feel better again and/or shares the same struggles that i'm facing...

...See more I feel hollow, as if a black hole was inside me tearing everything apart from me. My heart's so tight, my head's so heavy, my body's numb. I feel paralysed in my thoughts, overthinking, feeling nothing and everything all at once, it hurts. I can't move, though I'd like to get out of bed, like making myself somethin' to eat for example but I can't. I feel so tired, I've lost everything: energy, motivation, creativity, self-esteem, joy, ... And I don't understand why I feel like that. And it makes me feel even more bad. I don't have such a terrible and complicated life. I feel guilty for feeling bad. And I know what you'll say "it's okay to be not okay", "everyone's experience is valid no matter how small or big their challenges are" and stuff like that but still I feel so ashame, bad and stupid. I'd like to stop this black hole inside of me but it's getting bigger and bigger over time... And I don't know how to stop it. I'm stuck in the void, even the tiny sparkles and stars I found on the way, that made me feel good for a time, has been swallowed up, lost in the emptyness of space.

...See more Hi everyone! I've lost the passion and motivation I used to have when making stuff. I used to love creating: costumes, photographs, illustrations, ... Since that I feel depressed (around few months ago), I couldn't actually enjoyed anything that used to make me feel good... And I wish I could find a way to have my passions back and feel happy again... Art was the only thing that kept me alive all these years, and I've just lost it...
How to build deeper friendships?

...See more Hi there, I'm Rain, 25 yo, non-binary and introvert creature ^^ I feel quite lonely. Even when I'm surrounded by others I feel lonely and I wish I had a close friend that I could share time with and feel understood. I've been longing for a deep connexion in friendship for so long. You know that kind of friendship where each one is always there for the other no matter what they're facing in life... Spending time together, sharing commun interests, doing projects, talking about everything and nothing, traveling around the world, you know... I do have some friends but we're not that close, and I know it's partly because of me... I do have a lot of trouble opening up and communicate my feelings, my fears, personal stuffs, etc. I'm very bad at understanding myself sometimes too and it's frustrating me... Also in general I'm so bad at socialising, I don't know how to approach people, how to build a conversation, and the few times I tried I felt cringe... I'm often really drained from social interaction due to my introversion, and most people do not understand what is like to be an introvert... And lately I've been wondering if I do have autism and / or ADHD (I'm not diagnosed yet, but I'm seeing a neurologist by the end of June) for multiple reasons actually anyway... And I guess all those reasons are what stoping me to build deeper friendships... Do you have maybe some tips for me?

...See more It's nice to meet you! My name is Rain, I'm non-binary and panromantic (also probably asexual) creature 🐸 I'd be glad to meet some queer people to talk to, I've been feeling quite lonely and misunderstood (like I'm mostly surrounded by cisgender and straight people my whole life)... There's so few people I've made my coming out so far, only my two sisters and some friends. But most of them still misgendering me or calling me by my old name... Also I still haven't the guts to tell my parents, they can be open minded on some things but what I'm afraid of is judgement like they could say things like "what is that again" "it's just a phase" ... But I hate my birth name so much, and I'd like to be seen as I truly am... But idk, do you have maybe any tips?
