I'm in a similar situation. I have nothing and no one. I barely exist. I don't know how healthy it is but the short interactions I've had with y'all have felt kind of real, like I'm actually talking to people who have the same thoughts I've had.
It's probably common to hear but I used to feel like I was losing my mind. Didn't relate to anyone at all and had no ability to express my worldview without getting called a psychopath. Now I often go into a thread to say something and I'll see three other people have already made the same comment I was going to say. It's kind of nice.

Same here. It's amazing what interacting with leftists and like minded people actually feels like.
I will never forget a time during the subreddit days when I was talking about how terrible the job market was, and a cth user hit me up saying that his company's looking to fill this 60k job. They flew me down south for an interview. He said he felt bad about my situation and that the best way for us to get actual power is not be broke. I didn't end up getting the job but it was a great reminder of why I'm still a leftist
It's sad in that it only serves to highlight the alienation I feel in daily life, but without this site, the sub, the discord, and other places that spun off, I don't know how else I'd be coping with all the shit that's going around me and to me.
Careful, comrade. As you well know, spooning leads to forking.
I love you too! Hang in there, we're gonna win some day!
