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.

I wish I could cry myself to sleep like I use to

i remember back in 2007 I was in turmoil. Even though I was still an atheist, I clutched my chest and pretended I was wearing a cross. Then I'd sing Amazing Grace over and over and over again while crying. Fucking kept at it until I feel asleep.

I'm an atheist, and I still fall asleep sobbing myself to exhaustion, begging/praying aloud to some Greater Sentience to just let me go, let me end, let me never wake up.
Do you think that if I convert to a religion I'll have my prayers answered? Might be worth it...

Well personally I'm an atheist so I don't believe that anyone's prayers will be answered because I don't believe that there is anyone "up above" to carry out our wishes. 6 million Jews died in the holocaust so I doubt I'm "special" enough to get comfort.
It was one of those "mini" nervous breakdowns were I basically played "pretend"to try and calm myself. Even though I knew there wa no god, singing that song and clutching my chest relaxed me back then for some reason. Whatever works I guess.

I'm also an atheist myself and don't believe in God or religion. I have a hard time trying to cry myself, sometimes I force myself to cry, but no tears come out yet I still feel gloom and misery all around. I guess when things really hit hard, then I would "naturally" cry.
As for going to bed, I often just try to let my mind wander far away and then eventually drift into sleep and fall asleep.
@TiredHorse I don't recommend wasting time or energy to convert to a religion. Personally, I don't believe there is enough evidence (let alone strong evidence) that directly points to that there is a God or that when certain things happen it is necessarily caused by God.

Oh hell no. I was trying to be sarcastic about finding religion. Religion demands faith I have never had, and does not provide any of the evidence that I would need to establish faith.

Me too. I didn't know this was a thing? I used to cry all the time as a kid and I think I just cried out all the tears I could have. It kind of sucks because crying is actually therapeutic and cathartic, elephants cry too to relieve stress.

God I'm so relieved to know it's not just me that has lost the ability to cry, haven't for 16 years and can't even in situations I want to, or situations I don't want to but know I should. I couldn't even last night as I wrote my goodbye notes to people, not a drop

You're definitely not alone buddy. I can only cry when I'm really drunk unfortunately. Doesn't take much at that point. Sober? Forget about it! Crying did make me feel better back when I could do it.

I use to be like that up till the late 2000s. Crying myself to sleep almost every night. For me, crying actually helped but I just can't seem to do it anymore unless I'm drunk. I feel too down to cry if that makes any sense.
