  • It fixed my mental health and helped me begin to recover.

    Throughout my whole life I had thought that I had some form of brain injury or screw up, or maybe I was just being lazy. I couldn’t write properly, I was weird. I was an outcast. I tried to be normal which I hated and even then it failed. Even my demeanor I couldn’t change. Eventually as a teen I went into a really dark place, and ended up getting a psychiatric nurse.

    He suggested to me that I might have autism and referred me for an assessment, I waited three years for it, but I got diagnosed. It’s like everything made sense now, and it gave me permission to be myself. Anyone who had an issue with that was being ableist, as long as I don’t intentionally try to annoy or harm anybody, or make people uncomfortable. I’m allowed to like what I like and not do what I don’t want to do.

    I still think I have issues from growing up with undiagnosed issues, mainly related to confidence and self esteem.

    No. This is not an okay thing to think or want. There is no such thing as dying with dignity in this situation, and what awaits you after death may be worse than the life you have now.

    Try thinking outside the box. You can do something drastic but not this drastic. You’ve got a good passport, try utilising it to find a foreign spouse or something. Become Walter white. Try a religion. Try becoming a hermit in the wilderness. All of the above are better options than killing yourself. Ideally you probably shouldn’t become Walter white though.









  • It’s easier just recommending the distro rather than Linux in general.

    I know someone who was starting to dislike windows, I sent them the Linux mint site. Had a much more positive interaction compared to when I had just previously said “what about using Linux?”

    I actually think this is a similar way to push the fediverse. Just recommend a good instance instead of trying to sell them on federated technology. The federated technology will show them content and “how does this actually work” could be a conversation for later.
