Lots of situational reasons to be sad and depressed. I am learning a bit more about myself and have been making it into work alright so that is good. Living is so exhausting

I'm sorry you have been going through so much. I also get told I'm playing the victim. It's hard, I always feel like I can't express myself right so I don't want to try but not trying hurts my relationships more. I hope your week gets better and you start feeling better

A while ago I watched this video about tech careers and it mentioned that working at a big tech company is a huge benefit for your resume. So I mentioned to my SO that I think it'd be good for our future if I can get a job there and we live in California for a year or two. When I caused the argument I brought up California for the second time and just talked about two benefits I thought of at the time. My SO previously told me she doesn't feel like she gets any say just because I make more money. I thought we were just having a conversation but she felt like I just didn't care about what she thinks. It ended up being a good chance for me to grow, I've been working on improving my communication and I apologized.

It's also an Animal Crossing competitor that looked pretty good from the one trailer I saw. So people into animal crossing/Stardew valley type games are excited.

I've been thinking about my career too and it caused an argument with my SO the other day. I like where I'm working but I don't get to do much programming or circuit design, things I went to school for. I just got to one year being here and now I feel like it's time to start thinking of where I should go next

I found out I have ADHD after I graduated college. And I brought it up to a psychiatrist a long time ago, back in high school. It was relieving and a little annoying at the same time haha

Thank you for your kind words! I'm hoping next week will be better now that this one is almost done. It's exhausting dealing with my brain

Pretty bad, been feeling depressed for a while now and it feels like this week has been a new lowest low maybe. I made some progress in my mental health this week, along with just trying to enjoy spending time with my SO and not be so down all the time. There are some positives.

What kind of games does Activision Blizzard release besides the obvious ones? COD, WOW, and Diablo? I mainly buy indie games but I know those are giant series.
