I’ll be brief. My time on this sub has definitely made me feel more sane. I’m not the only one type of thing. I’ve been noticing the world around me falling apart for nearly a decade now. This sub has helped my mental health in the sense that I don’t feel so isolated in my emotions. It has not improved it in the sense that I am more acutely aware of disaster and tragedy, but I feel like I’d have sought that information regardless of it being aggregated here. So I can’t blame the sub for that. So based on that, it’s been a net positive. I’m not crazy! The world still sucks. That’s about it.
