    I’m using my phone data because my internet got turned off today, I haven’t eaten since lunch yesterday (mostly depression, not lack of food in the place), my wife is angry about money because I still haven’t found a job, my plans for the holidays are all but gone, and I have no medications or therapists available in the next 6months to help.

    I usually enjoy TPM memes but this just isn’t it.

    I do now realize what community I’m in, though. I wish you well.

      I’m sorry to hear that and hope things pick up for you soon. Depression can turn your day-to-day into an unpleasant fog, compounding the difficulty of trying to problem-solve stuff that’s right in front of you, much less more complicated life stuff. It’s important to give yourself grace and patience while working to make incremental improvements. I hope you find your way through it, friend. It’s always hard, but always possible.

      This sounds less like mental health issues and more like society has failed you. Society can make it difficult to find a job and then punish and ridicule you for not having one. It’s a completely absurd situation that lots of people are in including me. Even people with jobs struggle to make ends meet in the current economic climate and it in no way their fault.
