Make A Friend megathread

[underduvet]

23M from the UK Birmingham.
I feel mostly bored, alone, anhedonic, sleep deprived, isolated, on edge and sometimes suicidal.

Lately my days revolve around lying in bed doing nothing, suicidal ideation, and wishing I had more friends to go out often with.

I have pretty bad anxiety, non existent self esteem, depression, and BPD. I've also SH'd in the past but I've held off it in order to let my scars recover, although the temptation is always there.

I have some interests but it's all surface level knowledge. I like fashion, music, games (sometimes), anime (well used to), cigarettes and cars (don't own anything cool tho).

Just looking for potential friends around my age (atleast 20+) to just yap about anything and hollow together with.

If you are interested, shoot a DM and maybe we can chat over discord.

Hi, unspecified age here from Russia. I am AMAB but I have been questioning my gender identity for multiple months, so I use any pronouns.

I am not looking as much for a friend as for somebody to simply be acquainted and on good terms with. I don't go on this site nearly frequently enough to actually properly communicate and overall my attachment style is not understood even by me. If you would like to get to know me better, you can look through my venting threads - in a nutshell, I am avidly waiting for the day that all loose ends are tied and I can finally ingest SN.

I am rather laid back and I have learnt to suppress most of my emotions, so I am not too expressive, but still empathetic and I am a decent listener (although not as good of a responder/supporter... sorry).

If you want to chat with me, please NEVER EVER mention anything related to cutting, veins, arteries and etc. If this is something that you are interested in or take part in, please DNI (not because I hate you, but because this is an extreme visceral fear of mine).

My interests include development (Java, Kotlin and a bit of Python and a tiny slither of Rust), mathematics, gender (genuinely just discussing this topic is very interesting to me because until a couple months ago I had no idea about anything regarding it), suicidal thoughts etc, DevOps.

I don't play any videogames that much, but my favorite ones are Minecraft and Detroit: Become Human.

I belong to some fandoms like Attack on Titan, Death Note, Terror in Resonance and some other animes, and also My Little Pony (I haven't finished it yet though!!! I just started season 1, so no spoilers please).

Some of my favorite bands/artists are The Neighbourhood, Imagine Dragons, Billie Eilish, Charli XCX, NF, Phantogram, Call Me Karizma, grandson, Penelope Scott, 100 gecs, Chappell Roan, Ado, 2hollis, midwxst, Chase Atlantic, Sleeping wolf, Twenty One Pilots, Set It Off, RADWIMPS, Joji, The Weeknd, Panic! At The Disco and some others
I also like Russian music - pyrokinesis, Земфира, Би-2, Noize MC, Монеточка, mzlff, Валентин Стрыкало (Ukrainian band but Russian-language music), Дора, катя милтей, zhanulka (also Ukrainian) and some others.

Overall - I am not looking for anybody actively, but if you feel like we could get along, I think it's worth to try. But again, please note that I am not quick to respond because I don't visit this site even daily, but rather on unplanned occasions.
Have a lovely day ;)
