The old outlook was just perfect, the new one is positively abhorrent. I swear if they force one more app to me I’m going to purposefully stop using it altogether

My realization came from DDLC. I learned about what other people can feel after you’ve left

Oh yes, definitely.

It wasn’t always the case. I started Journaling as a means to recover my mental health. The initial entries were really dark and I don’t read them often, perhaps less than once a year.

After I recovered, I started using it as a logbook for my own life. Initially I only just wrote events happening around me, or interesting world events, but soon I was writing my own desires to improve myself.

That’s when it really kicked off for me. Till now about 2 years had passed since I started Journaling. I would write about something I wished to change about myself, like reducing soft drink consumption, quitting cigarettes, or just changing my behavior a certain way. Gradually I would write about how I could go about realizing it, eventually I would do it.

Reading back I can see that today I am totally different from me a year ago. It’s really fascinating to me and it has helped me to stay way ahead of my mental health. I was able to recognize a relapse in my depression and address it accordingly.

That starting the work is half the work. I wasted a lot of time procrastinating, it took me shamefully long to realize that if I could just start an activity for 5 minutes, taking it to completion is then relatively easy

My app worked as I was mod of my own sub. Few weeks ago that stopped working, and I haven’t opened reddit since

Sweat, make yourself love it. Train your mind to enjoy it when your body makes sweat.

Be consistent, do not lose hope or motivation after a week, or s month. Try to keep at it for at least a couple of months

I’ve seen many kids well into their 30s, and I’ve seen many old souls just entering 20s. Maturity comes at different stages for everyone, and some don’t get it at all. Don’t Overthinking the age gap, what you really need is mental compatibility. If it’s there then you’ll be fine.

Yeah, I didn’t see that and selected the wrong choice smh

Lemmy for me isn’t even close to what reddit was. Careful selection of several dozen subs over past many years meant that I felt at home browsing the feed. On lemmy, I’ve tried to join similar instances as my subscribed subreddits, but so far it’s empty. The situation is improving and I hope to one day see better content here than in reddit

Would be funny if they can successfully counter-sue apple to stop using their logo

Been exploring, setting up my account, learning to use lemmy since 2am, this is the fundamental issue in facing, one that I cannot seem to wrap my head around.

I’m not sure (someone can correct me if I’m wrong) if my account is in certain instance, I can subscribe to communities in that instance, or other external instances. However, subscribing to communities in other instances is pretty tedious. I still don’t know how to reliably do it on PC let alone mobile. It’s a toss up for me if it’ll open in my account or a new page asking me to log in to that instance.

Hopefully in the coming months lemmy can take off and we can have something amazing on our hands
