It’s been five months for me, since the day after I graduated.
I haven’t been home for several days.
I’d also look into leaving the house, even if it is to just walk around the neighborhood.
What’s keeping you indoors? Do you have some humans or pets to keep you company?
Depression. I do have a dog and my mom and dad help me :D
Got a bagel this morning
Oh look at Mister-or-Missus Fancy Bagel Pants up here flaunting their bagel 🥯 wealth, oh and look it was fresh they just “got” it this morning so it was still soft and delicious
What flavor bagel?
I go outside and walkies because the meat husk needs it or something. So I went outside this morning for that.
most recently, i left the apartment to take the trash down to the dumpster this afternoon.
Yesterday?
When the UK supreme court released it’s ruling on trans rights I basically was too scared/depressed to leave the house for a month.
I am sorry for you OP that you have to go through this. I hope that you’re followed by a mental health professional which can help you. 5 month without leaving the house is entering in the hikikomori territory. I wish I could give you relevant advices, but I assume all the simple advise simply won’t work (Just like you can’t just tell someone with a broken leg to keep running)
If you get better and can go out again, what do you wish to do ? Is there a sport/hobby you want to try ? Is it available in your city ? is there a language you want to learn ?
Bruh. Why are you doing this? Severe vitamin D deficiency will make you wish for death. You legitimately NEED sunlight on your skin…
How do you get groceries? How do you make money?
Every day. I have a dog and a job so staying inside isnt an option
Yesterday. I work Monday-fri
Literally how? I leave the house and I don’t even have any place to go.
20 minutes or so.
Working sucks.
Yesterday, and only because I didn’t feel so good today
You should go outside for a walk or something
I was the same and have suffered to some extent since. In 2008 I was made redundant from my job of 15 years and couldn’t leave the house for the best part of the year.
If youre destined for the basement life, live it. Dont let these haters take away what joy you can find during this painful life we are all forced into.
Just be sure to do what you can to take care of yourself.
Look up body weight exercises you can do inside without equipment. And you dont even have to set aside time if you do them while you’re waiting for something. Microwaving food? 4 minutes of push-ups or planks. Got a few minutes while your game loads or something? Stretch. Little things can add up.
If you you drink or take drugs, make sure you drink your homework water and to give yourself time to recover before partying more.
Dont wanna diet? Fine, but make one meal healthy like a salad or oatmeal so your chimkin nuggies pass through your body within a week.
Or don’t. Its your life. Youre in charge. Do whatever
Very good advice! I have a tendency to be a shut in and during the covid-19 pandemic it was at an all time high. I learned that my mental wellbeing is helped if I sort of divvy up my living space into areas where certain things are done and others are not. Eating in one place, games in another, sleep in another, etc. Just in case that is applicable and/or helpful to anyone.
