I think I am seeing a horrid Psychiatrist.

Seen him since 2018
Still extremely depressed and I now think there is like a genuine 2% chance I end up dead from suicide or something in the next year.
Seeing him twice a week takes 8 hours. (1.5 hours travel time both ways for two sessions for just a 50 minute appointment.)
He won't diagnose me or give me medication.
He won't transfer me to a different psychatrist that is closer to me.

I think I need to book an appointment with my dr and get anti depressants.
Then if the anti depressants work and i am fine in about 8-12 weeks cut off seeing him as fast as I can and view him as a bad life influence who wouldn't do his job and medicate me.

My mental health is perfect, which I am very thankful for, since I see how so many people struggle with their mental health. My lifesytle of just going with the flow probably helps my mental health and my life is pretty stress-free as well, and unlike probably everyone else in the world, I have actively enjoyed living through the COVID-19 pandemic, which I currently profitting from since my job is testing people for COVID-19. Also, since I apparently like disorder and chaos, it seems the effects that climate change will have won't affect my mental health that much. Also, I don't suffer from climate anxiety, probably because I know I cannot do much to stop climate change, so worrying about it is useless.

So, my dad and my sister have COVID-19. Fortunately, both of them are fully vaccinated, so they have been feeling not that bad. Even though I live with them, I am not scared about catching COVID-19 since I am spend a lot of time away from them, and when we are together, we all wear N95 masks. So, now I am the only member of my immediate family who has not been infected by COVID-19.

When I was affected by Covid-19, I don't know that it is covid first 3 days but I stay with many people and none of them were affected. I don't have it for another time, I think that I am not the person who spread the infection. I am not vaccinated.

So, I was wrong because I got infected with COVID-19 and I am absolutely certain that my family infected me. Hopefully I don't get long COVID, but of what I have read reagarding long COVID, it seems to affect women more than men. I feel fine, probably because I am fully vaccinated and boosted, so this is a breaktrough infection and my only symptom is a running nose, with occasional sneezing.

You'll be fine! I'm curious as to when track and trace will be implemented to keep you safe.

Luckily for me, it seems that I avoided getting long COVID because I no longer feel sick, although I still have some symptoms, although now I only have an occasional cough.

Same for me, I got covid during the new year's eve and now, 20 days later, I feel super fine. In fact even better than before as I've started exercising as part of my 2022 goals. I think I got Omicron so probably it was because of that that I had very mild symptoms.
And, as always, bye bye.

No, our new house we moved into after getting kicked out by our last landlord because she wanted to sell is infested with bugs. My grandmother passed away who I was very close with, my friends mom died of cancer, another friends dog got killed by another dog, and I'm trialing hrt in like 2 days for a few weeks to see if it helps with my gender problems. All this in the span of weeks. What is this world. Surely this has to be it. I've been saying it for years now but surely things must turn up sometime soon here. Because as it stands I can't sleep.

Sorry to hear you are going through all this. :(

I think your immediate priority should be to fix the bug situation. Which bugs are they, specifically? What's your current landlord like? Is the building shared with anyone else?

Surely there's some legal obligation on whoever owns the property. And if things are particularly bad, you might be able to get temporary alternative accommodation elsewhere.

Once the bugs are removed, your sleep is bound to improve as you'll be less anxious/stressed.

Oh sh!t, I would've burned the house down.

It seems the transgender community is a place where they send agents for some reason. If the current FBI national security person who looks trans is any indication then it is one weird trend I've been noticing. It seems the full LGBT alphabet community won't be alone if that is the case.

Just a random thought that entered my mind when I saw you were trans.

Hope so dude because as it stands here in the USA they seem to send agents and other people there to temporarily satisfy the discomfort some ugly gremlins and goblins have against others. Transhumanism has nothing to do with transgenderism and as it stands transgenderism is being used to hammer down the last bit of women's rights for political purposes regardless of the percent of transgenders in the USA population. Once that is done I would not be surprised if it goes away and Transhumanism still stands since it is a robotics movement that will be very important in the coming decades.

I received an email today from "Clearer Thinking" that outlined all the different AI generators out there for creative content. While it didn't get to everything, I felt it was a pretty good summary of what's going on in the world with all this stuff. I was dissatisfied that they didn't have a good conclusion to the email though. I was hoping for some insights into how to deal with all the changes in all these industries...but I didn't see anything. Personally, I have since come to the conclusion that a lot of creative jobs in the world will disappear or vastly change much sooner than some of the dull, lower-paid work, and have adjusted myself accordingly, but it's still hard not to be disappointed/discouraged some days.

Another night of horrendous insomnia. Why do I keep waking up at 4am, every morning, on the dot?
