Loneliness, depression and anxiety .. and steam
Hi All,
sometimes these forums is my only outlet to express the way I feel. Having fellow gamers cheers me up even if I have never met them.
I am wondering.. do you use steam as your main sort of social contacts when you are lonely, depressed or anxious. There are plenty of people to talk to here..
I have about 25 friends on my FB but I dont really connect like I do with other gamers.

Online, I can find something nobody has the confidence to say to me in the real world, brutal criticism. Not everything about myself can be improved from the narrow viewpoint of first person, I've always been someone that finds lifetime satisfaction from improving and adapting to situations that others might find challenging or near impossible, be it justifying hard viewpoints or proving something that someone else might struggle on, people offline don't like to argue or debate things, I learn nothing and walk away with a fruitless and shallow conversation.

Improvement quells all negative emotions in my life, should that come from the most plentiful source of knowledge, the internet, so be it.

I do understand you. Do I speak about my problems to random people I've never met in my life and who wouldn't even realize if I wasn't there anymore? No, certainly not. From time to time I make some remarks about life in general and get roasted by users who write about their intellecutal superiority and how they have to tone down their standards when talking to inferior and stupid people in those high-IQ threads, and two months later they boast about their humilty in other threads. Boasting about how humble you are? What an oxymoron! However, there are simply too many of these around here. Do I want them to know about myself? No. Let Pedocrates tell his life story here on OT, but I won't.

Steam is the only platform I'm still using. When I still played Rust, I had a few friends here. Later I used to play Age of Conan with a few decent guys from Johannesburg, but I never got their Steam addresses. The only Steam friend I still have was last online 126 days ago. He was a nice chap from Aberdeen. We talked about that hellish roundabout they have over there. I hope he's alright, but I fear that this is some sort of epitaph for him. Farewell, mate.

Admittedly, I'm pretty complicated myself. Old school would probably describe it best. I've never owned a mobile phone and never sent an SMS in my entire life. I really think that friends should be people who you can trust and rely on in times of need. Well, while I was certainly friend to quite a few people, I had to learn that they don't automatically have to be your friends in return. One ran off with money she still owned me, another dediced that cheating on his wife and playing in a Slayer cover band was more fun than maintaining a friendship with a mentally disabled. Well, I saw that coming. As Marcus Aurelius wrote: if you know how people are and how they act, you shouldn't be angry when they act the way they do. The last of my close friends had a congenital heart defect and died in his early forties. That was bad luck for him. The last time I met him we talked about how his pacemaker went of a dozen times in a single night, and then he was dead. I've had a few acquaintances since then, but no friends anymore.

I agree with MegabytzZ, Grynn and Darkie here.

Life is not as simple as the poster with a ♥ portrayed above.

Like Oceans, life has too many ingredients to simplify and formulate.

I think Lonely, depress and anxiety is the result of a mismanaged life.
Depression is a sign of a mismanaged life? Anxiety?

Well my Psychology degree told me something else.

Mind me asking where you come from? That might be the reason why you have that kind of hot take, it is usually a cultural thing.

It also apparently told you that Seasonal Affective Disorder was misinformation spread by "Trump supporters". Worthless. Stop larping.

Still salty I deleted and blocked you because you were sexually harassing me? Unlucky. Imagine spending your time running after me in the forums although you knew what you were doing, actual disgusting human being.

I've said it before and I'll say it again; Please seek consultation with your physician, therapist, and/or social worker for any real life conditions such as depression and anxiety.

Although the opinions and views expressed on Steam may offer input consider that there are many (oftentimes free) resources available in your community and online from accredited health professionals who may be of more assistance in addressing personal concerns.

Just an idea. And always have a pleasant day!

If you had any decency left in your soul, you'd leave me alone. You're disgusting. Just stop harassing me.

I am Irene from South East Asia.
My age group is 20+.

I have a friend who have committed suicide. I know how serious depression can be. He appears to be normal, he told me he heard voices in his head often and one day he did it. There is no scene or drama, he is gone, just like that. I've also had another friend who will cry out for no reason. They could not control themselves. Those are depression. The mind is no longer controllable.

No doubt serious depression is a clinical issue. It is only common sense. Why do I wish to debate it differently? At my current age and my experience, I strongly believe depression is a result of a bad, untidy lifestyle. I have observed the people.

It happened because they have not tidy up their life, and it leads to a life experience which overwhelms their brain. That friend of mine did not study. He failed multiple exams. Society gave him a lot of realistic rejection and pressure. The other is stressed by the family. Parents, children and work overwhelmed her.

They all have a reason to be depressed.

Now, as I visit forum to give my fair share of opinions, I won't just go "oh you have depression. God bless. Consult an expert." I will strongly advise to tidy up life. get things rolling, be positive. And after putting that empathy and effort to write about it, the "experts" will then go booo irene what about those that are poor and have depression yada yada and carry on to give a lot of sarcasms. It is quite an unhappy read. Thus I comment it's unfair to attack me that way since my comments are good efforts. They could have handle it better if they disagree, such as "ok irene tidy is good but I have another view because depression is actually a very big challenge..." with that, I will only give respect. I will only give award and smiles. You claim you have a psychology degree, so I believe you understand why I gave a different opinion.
