So I got stuck in a depressive rut once again and I’m making a fresh start. Give me advice!
I’ll move. My plan is to find a cheap place somewhere in France, but anywhere in the EU’s good. Having like-minded roommates would be a plus. Anyone wish to bask in my glorious presence? I’m a very accommodating roommate (I’ve complained about exactly one thing in two years of rooming with various people, and never refused a request), respond well to nagging, tend to keep to myself unless prompted, don’t have many irritating habits I can think of (maybe I use too much dish soap?), and am generally good with kids. And if you’re a mentally odd person who could use a bit of live-in help, boy are you in luck!
I’ll poke around at jobs until I find one I can reliably handle. That means not having to focus too much and no heavy responsibilities. Working from home is best—programming or web dev or translation or editing. For meatspace jobs, maybe tutoring. Anyone have a bright idea? Anyone want me to normalise the tags in their music collection for a pittance?
I’ll try to develop better mental hygiene. That includes hounding psychiatrists, maintaining my network of friends (social life is the one thing I’m really successful at these days), cultivating new hobbies, and tinkering with useful habits. Anyone have deep wisdom, or an old lockpicking kit to send me?
I’ll make some long-term plans. Taking up my studies again and going for that cool engineering career is the obvious choice, but it might not be a reasonable goal by then. Anyone want to recruit me for seasteading or something?
I have enough savings to last me for a while and my parents haven’t cut me off yet, so I can afford a few failures before my life’s in order again. Other than that I can’t predict very much about how dependable my meds, any of my friends, my shiny new boyfriend, or my own brain are.
Help me refactor my life
