(TL;DR 39/M USA/Georgia. Divorcing, doesn't want to CTB but life is guiding me that way, would like to meet female with alike situation)

Hello, new to SaSu. 39/M USA/Georgia. Married, living separate, going through a divorce currently. I have 1 son, he is staying with his Mother.
Diagnosed with ADHD/Anxiety/Depression. And It's pretty safe to assume I can tack on Social Anxiety. Though I have been known to overshare and break out of my box once I get to know someone. (Blame it on my A.D.D. baby )

Currently, I don't have imminent plans of CTB, though I do feel waves of very intense loneliness/depression/rejection currently. I'm trying to hang in there day by day and see what the Lord might put in my future, because up until this year when I started feeling very distant and 'final' vibes from my wife, with demands of distance and no intimacy/hugs/etc - I felt that she held that title. We have been together since 2010ish, married since 2015, but I've begged, pleaded, been ignored WHILE begging/pleading, etc. - and since she has recently filed divorce, for my own interest, I need to stop fooling myself and try to move on as well.

I am heterosexual, and my main problems are feeling those unshakable, usually daily vibes of loneliness and no control over the outcome of the matter. That, mixed with my social anxiety and general homebody characteristics leave me with little hope for finding anybody - which leads to worsened depression/anxiety when I let it get the best of me. I would love to become acquainted with a likeminded female in Georgia who doesn't necessarily want to CTB, but is a lonely soul. My love language is touch/love - unfortunately my wife, and very soon to be ex, was gifts/acts of service. I don't know what happened first, but over the years I became starved of my needs, which inevitably mirrored in a gradual lack of return, or vice-versa.

Oh, for my interests/hobbies.. self proclaimed computer 'nerd'. Love watching movies of wide varieties, playing online games with my son, tinkering with random tech projects, loving on my two dogs. And, anything else that doesn't require leaving the house, but can ramp up my ADHD lack of pleasure chemicals .

Not even sure if we can PM yet? I'm very new on these boards, but maybe if both people agree, that is unlocked? Not sure how that works. Anyhow, I have yet to make a formal introduction on any other posts, so I guess this will be mine. Nice to meet ya'll, and hello.

 

[stayedtoolong]

Hello,

I go by September NB woman and in my late 20s. I am also not in work or education as my mental illness prevent this. It would be nice to have someone in the sameish position so we could connect.

Although I do want to connect please understand that I will not be available all the time due to the depression although I would like to have casual conversations from time to time and see where that goes.

As doomer as it is, I would love to connect with someone who wouldn't mind talking about our issues together and just listening to each other as I feel like I can only be open online. But that is not all that I am hoping for (as typing out my MH experience and issues takes a lot out of me).

I do have BPD so it makes it really hard to navigate life, I have interests in creative things and anime (a little bit of manga) and tv shows and of course music.

Please be over 25 if you reach out as I am in my late 20s now. Also please know that I will never send selfies even if we were to move to another platform as this is a hard boundary for me. I do not mind voice calls but some conversation should happen before that.

 

[Darkhaze_]

Hey I'm Darkhaze, 27F, Straight, London.
I posted previously - still open to making some friends (M or F 21+).
The OP has extra info/details if you would like to know a bit more.
I can get pretty bored and could do with an occasional distraction, from the feelings that come with wanting to CTB, even though that is the plan.
I'm friendly and easy going so don't hesitate to reach out, it'd be nice to get to know each other.

 

[SteamaHorns]

Hey

I'm a 20M that's hitting 21 soon. Music-wise, I'm mostly into JPOP/Rock, Breakcore, and Ambient DnB. Gaming-wise, I can get into pretty much anything but have a preference for ones that are story-heavy and atmospheric. Narrative writing something I'm interested in but have abysmal experience in. I'm technically a college student but am not actually going through any courses due to financial debt that I have to take care of.

I spend most of my time just avoiding the things I want to do, or at least think that I want to do. I sort of just drift into doing menial things to distract myself from the things that excite me. I've come to a point where I've lost hope in ever overcoming this trait.

I'm honestly just looking for someone without having to filter the stuff that I have to, with the people I know in my life. Whether it be about the desire or plans for CTB or other kinds of issues. I guess I just want to know what it's like to be able to have those sorts of conversations with others.

I prefer DMs whether through SASU or some other platform. I'm also open to voice-chatting if we seem to get along, but probably not too often due to the fact that others live under the same roof as me.

 

[3/4Dead]

Realizing I've never posted in this thread lolol.

I try to give broad information, but I'm under 21, M, USA, planning to CTB next year around my birthday but I'm trying my best to get better before I do it, so if you're into recovery I'm down to talk about that as well, and would totally appreciate any tips. I'm a huge music and film guy, so I'm always down to talk about those. I've been told I'm a good listener, lol, so even if you just want a sounding board I'm here. I like to try to help. I'm pretty lonely these days, and figure it'd be cool to connect with some more people. Feel free to PM if you wanna chat, I'm usually online before and after work, as I prefer to use my laptop.

 

[hawkoflight]

Hey there! I'm Griffith, I'm 19M and from the US. I like old anime and manga and video games, mostly. LGBT people are preferred but not required. Feel free to message me!

 

[GuessWhosBack]

Hello

26M. Age and gender irrelevant to me, but I'd prefer people above the age of 20.

I am into math, programming, powerlifting, safe and legal driving , horror games, and recently want to get in horror literature too. I am interested in many other things but never had the time to explore them, such as art and philosophy.

I'm mostly looking to talk and listen to others in my last few months of life. I have been suffering from BDD for most of my life, and MDD and anxiety for the last 8 years.

 

[Lucid.44]

[NoHalfMeasures]

Hey, I'm in the later years of my 20s (FtM). Live in the US. I don't have many friends, but I think it might be nice to chat with some folks here. I enjoy making different resin arts, currently. I also enjoy playing Splatoon 3 though I haven't had a lot of time lately.
Right now I'm working 40+ hours a week, trying to move out of my parents place.
Cats bring joy to my life so I'm always happy to talk about or look at cat and kitten photos.
: )

 

[Gangrel]

Hello, been a little while in this site, i like to talk to people and know them better.

26, male, gay. Prefer to talk to other LGBT people but if not that's alright. Prefer if you are around my age or older. English is not my first language but i think i get by just fine. I like reading, video games, art, animals, photography, some fandom shit like furries and cod.

Currently, I don't have plans of CTB, though I do feel intense loneliness/depression/rejection. I can be very needy and a lot sometimes because i speak a lot, make a lot of jokes, memes and such, i also can be very affectionate so i don't wanna come off as weird.

I'm kinda of a computer nerd, organized freak. I work 9 hours a day so please cope with me in having delays in this capitalistic hell.

Hi
I want to be your friend.

 

[AbsurdAbyss]

Retry, hope it goes better than last time :
21M, i'm here because i want to ctb and have no other options left - the loneliness is killing me, i just want to talk to somebody before i go. i like music(chinese punk rock, emo, hiphop, r&b, anything with good guitar but i also listen to a bit of everything), some movies(not much anymore, mostly those from the 90s to 10s, good ones from any genre except romcoms and fantasy and i find thrillers, psychological, neo noir, dark humor interesting), gaming(PC, single player, story rich, RPGs, action adventure, open world, FPS, visual novels - i'm the achievement hunter, completionist sort), reading(a bit of philosophy and literature, older conspiracy theories, unsolved mysteries, the paranormal, ETs and close encounters, etc.) and writing shitty poetry when i feel like it. i have trouble gathering, communicating my thoughts sometimes, might come across as insensitive, inconsiderate - ignore it if you can - but i'm a good listener so if you want to speak your mind, vent, get something heavy off your chest, you can trust me on my absolute discretion, only if you feel comfortable talking about it - no pressure and no judgements. i don't mind late replies(i can be late sometimes too) but ghosting makes me uncomfortable. Open to PM's and conversations with (preferably though not exclusively) those around my age. thanks for reading.

Hello, new to SaSu. 39/M USA/Georgia. Married, living separate, going through a divorce currently. I have 1 son, he is staying with his Mother.

Hello DraggingHeart, welcome to SaSu.

The ability to send DM's will unlock after an x amount of posts.

Hope you will find a friend!

 

[Cyber4ngel!]

I'm 18 and gender fluid (she/he/they) I'm bisexual. I'm from Argentina and speak both English and Spanish, though Spanish is my first language.

You can call me Angel or Angelina!

(Not my real name, just a nickname.)

I enjoy video games like Terraria, TF2, Hotline Miami, The Binding of Isaac, Retrowave, games from the PS2, Don't Starve, Garry's Mod, and I've recently started Jet Set Radio. I'd really like to play Project Zomboid sometime. I prefer co-op games
I'd love to find a friend or a friend group to play video games with over calls or simply chat about our days. ( I'm not very good at video games despite enjoying them you have been warned lol

)

I am a big fan of the vaporwave/retrowave/synthwave/cyberpunk aesthetic.
I have 3 cats they are my world!!
I enjoy 80s music, though I listen to almost everything.
I like horror movies

I'm autistic, have ADHD, depression and anxiety. I suspect I might have BPD, but I can't confirm it. I'm not planning on CTB at the moment, but I know that will be the route I'll take eventually—whether that's in years or sooner, who knows!

I'm slowly learning to play the guitar and want to feel more alive by trying thrilling things and exploring new experiences.
I use a translator when writing long texts like this one, so sorry if I don't sound very human sometimes!!

I don't have preferences regarding age or gender as long as you're over 18!

This is an LGBTQIA+ safe space. If you speak Spanish, that's great, but don't worry if you don't—I might just talk a bit wonky on calls because of bad pronunciation.

 

[pain6batch9]

I'm always available to talk, so long as I'll be here. I hate talking about myself, so why not PM me and we can get to know each other that way? Located: London, UK. 41M. Life has rather washed over me like a stale tide of shite, but maybe I've got one or two life lessons in me.

Please be patient if I don't reply straight away. I might be trying to remove a thought about some hideous thing from my head. Oh, yeah, I'm a chronic weirdo. Sorry about that.

Age and gender not important, as long as you can stand to read me babbling on like a deranged clown…

 

[slamjoetry]

Hi! You can call me Joe, or Dee, or whatever you want really. I'm 23, male, and from the United States.

I'm passionate about movies of any era and genre. I love metal and punk rock, but I'll also listen to pretty much anything (I know everyone says that, lol). I like video games too, especially old school Nintendo games. I'm also interested in basketball and my favorite team is the Phoenix Suns. I also like to perform stand-up comedy and karaoke. I don't have any pets but I love animals and nature.

I dislike phony people, politicians, bugs, and myself >~<

I'm on this site because I'm suicidal (duh), mostly due to loneliness and financial issues. I don't have any close irl friends and few close family members, and nobody in my life who understands me.

Looking for someone to talk to who knows what it's like. Someone who I can relate with on a deeper level than everybody else. If a friendship comes from this, that's all I could ever ask for. Gender/orientation doesn't matter at all to me, but I'm only looking to make friends with adults 18+. Sorry kiddos!

 

[Eternal Eyes]

Male, 25. UK. Northern England specifically.

I like football, but other facets of it than just playing it, I am a volunteer at an amateur football club. I like video games, namely RPGs like Skyrim and Oblivion, but also JRPGs like Pokemon and the older FF games. Also LOVE the Animal Crossing games. Currently playing Stella Glow and Oblivion, and want to play Persona 4 Golden soon, favorite consoles are Nintendo ones. I used to watch a lot of anime years ago but not so much now (last one was Love Live about 8 years ago). I like history and geography and different cultures. I'm autistic, depressed, and probably have either BPD or bipolar mixed in along with general anxiety. I am also a failed pro wrestler too (how's that for a random curveball?). In recent years I have tried to spend some free time watching hockey, I followed the Arizona Coyotes (press F to pay respects) when I did (would love to meet a hockey fan here as literally none exist where I live). I also like animals and nature, and I was a keen birdwatcher. I like walks in the countryside and forests. Have an eclectic taste in music, currently listening to Goodbye Horses - Q Lazzarus, from Silence Of The Lambs.

I'm not always great at replying. I prefer the PM function opposed to the conversation chat one (you don't always get notifications for it). Also I can be extremely boring and even anxious online. I am not suicidal all the time, I'd say I am just lonely and lost in life, making connections seems to get harder each year. Don't worry, I probably won't hurt or upset you, I'll just bore you to death!

 

[Danby]

Hello. 54, male, near San Francisco, CA. Suffering from depression and anxiety, and also autistic. I am a gamer (historical simulation boardgames--wargames basically--though I'll play pretty much anything once); I build model airplanes, and like to read (alternating history books and Star Trek novels--the latter is my guilty pleasure/mind candy). In the midst of a divorce from my wife of 30 years; my whole world is changing and I am very afraid of change (I take comfort in routine to protect me from a shitty world). Looking for someone to talk to, and maybe more . . . one of my biggest worries (and one that contributes to my suicidal thoughts) is that I won't find anyone who put up with my eccentricities and geekyness as well as my soon-to-be-ex did. Also looking for someone to talk me off the ledge, so to speak; my suicidal thoughts ebb and flow along with my depression. I have good days and bad days; today so far is a bad day. Very very close to ordering the last things I need for my chosen method and starting the countdown.

 

[peaceandlove]

40 f USA I'm kind of traditional, I guess? But open-minded and also... not very traditional... I dunno. Ibarely make it through any day. My interests, passions are all kinda faded away. Not sure I'll ever be me again. There's nowhere but this forum to talk to people completely freely. I have a couple friends but it would be life changing to develop a real deep intimate healthy (ish) relationship with somebody I can talk to honestly. I am polite and kind and happy to talk to pretty much anybody about pretty much anything. Message me pretty please!

 

[mercutiomartis]

I'm Martis, I'm 25F. I'm diagnosed with MDD with psychotic features. I'm really just looking to make connections and talk about whatever really, I would be game to discuss serious things or to just chat about day to day stuff.

I watch a lot of YouTube, movies, shows, and play a lot of games. Still trucking away at TOTK. I also have been drawing a lot lately. I don't really have friends irl and would like to make some online connections to talk regularly with.

I can make you a playlist, listen to you vent, draw something for you, exchange movie recs, share life stories, etc.

Shoot me a message :)

 

[LionBoy]

I cant post anythign here about me and my ideas other than the basic info like my age male 37 the moderators would ban anything I say that doesnt fit their way of thinking, so forget introducing urself here. I'm not gonna write only half of me here, having to hide the other half, suffering having my opinions surpressed. One of my posts yesterday already got removed because I said that if a youjng son commits suicide it's the fault of parenting. Ya no, f that!

 

[donxtwait]

Hi, my name is Emery. I'm 23 and I use the pronouns she/her and they/them. I'm transgender, and that's where a lot of my pain has come from all these years of my life to here. I wish I could have done something to be who I truly was when I was younger but I don't know if that would have been possible even with my not always supportive and hurtful family that has caused me trauma.

But that's why I'm here but I love music and I'm very passionate about film and writing! I'm planning to finally move out and try to pursue my dreams of filmmaking away from my family in the New Year. I feel alone and depressed and miserable and anxious all the time right now and I don't know if I'll end up turning alright next year or if 2025 will be my last. But I could really use a friend. Just anyone who cares.

Currently in Ohio but moving to Utah in four months.

 

[FakeSmileGuy]

I'm FakeSmileGuy, 18M, in USA.

I'm pretty lonely, so I'm just looking for someone I can talk to. I'm a good listener, and I'll be happy to just hear you out on whatever you want to talk about.

I love to listen to music and some of my fav bands are Radiohead, The Strokes, and Sublime.

I also love video games but I haven't had the time or energy to play them recently. My favorite video games of all time have to be Katana Zero and Omori.

Tambien hablo español bastante bien, asi q si alguien necesita con quien hablar, aqui estoy.

 

[mrpeter]

18M going on 19

Looking for someone to vent about things but also interested in talking about interest.

I like video games, metal music, and tv shows.
Looking for someone whos closer to my age preferably mid 20s and younger.
I'm also open to hearing people vent about their own problems.

 

[tenshi天神]

hiiiiii im f18 from USofA

[Lady Laudanum]

Female, early-mid 20s, in North America. Currently in school full time and trying to find a new part time job, after booking a flight and fucking off to a low cost of living area. I'm fluent in English and Chinese, and also very in touch with Chinese culture. I'm also autistic as fuck and I'm aware that I can be blunt, but I interact with other users in good faith unless there is a compelling reason not to. I like downers, rock climbing, and body modifications (but obviously not at the same time). I hate @GuessWhosBack and @Gangrel because they're big dumb, as well as myself because I'm even bigger dumb. As I get busier with school (and likely a part time job too), I won't be as active on here but I'll still be around to cook spicy memes.

 

[QteStimBnnuy]

Male, 24 Scottish

There are a fair few things I can't and won't share in relation to living/irl life or specific interests. Have a psychiatrist and psychologist, very rare appointments. Waiting to get diagnosed (probably in 5 years if I don't go back to suicide, go nhs). Suspected schizophrenia, low suspect bipolar, guarantee adhd + horrible short term memory

I love information/learning and trying to understand everything (although admittedly avoid geography and politics for the time being(and in terms of official education, I'm behind from the lack of treatment)). Do enjoy sh and self medicating/testing drugs and I'm a heavy gamer- was more heavily focused into competitive for fps, but now I more or less struggle to stick to it. Always love rhythm games and I'm getting back into chess recently. Tend to never talk about it, but usually only ever read/own physics books. Listen to a lot of music, can vary from rap to deathcore to pure vibe, tech ect

Not always super responsive or active, but would be interesting seeing how the people here are

 

[Preh1storic_Rib]

20, genderfluid of a sort, but agender fits most days. Memory issues and I occasionally use a screenreader.

Music is cool though metal has to be a little funky for me to relisten (ex: igorrr - cheval), mostly enjoy stuff thats interesting to my ears :]
Escapism is huge so I read a lot of fics, but I also play Sky cotl and minecraft regularly. And when my brain can scrounge up some inspiration I draw, or sew, or bead, anything crafty thats not hard to start.

Looking for a friend I can be myself with and who wont judge if I rant about silly things sometimes.
I can't CTB for a bit and probably won't bring it up much, just knowing we both know is a comfort.

 

[shrobae]

i dont do these things often lol. im an 18 yo m from the us.

i make music, play xbox, and really just try to chill when i can but as we all know it gets hard these days.

i have a social battery but i love talking to people, i am very blunt and open when i get to know somebody but in the immortal words of Agent 47, "i am the very soul of discretion." i am kind of hard to read and talk to at first but i promise im not mean. im just not used to talking to people i dont know. it doesnt mean i dont enjoy it but its awkward sometimes.

i am the friend group therapist, so im good at that i guess. idk i just want a friend, i dont get to talk to a lot of people because i am in a very complicated situation. ill unlock my pm thing soon hopefully so ill respond when i unlock it. im really glad to have a community of seemingly likeminded people :)
