    You are very welcome, I’m glad you’re doing better. And yeah, people can be awful, but you’ll find people who will be supportive, even if it’s just a few. My dogs help me personally, they know how to get me out of depression funks.

      Seeing as I’m 36 and yet to find such a creature who I’m not paying hundreds an hour to listen to me trauma dump… I’d like to politely advice you to not use any definite sentence on what I will or will not find.

      I would love a dog, I’ve had many as a kid. None from pup to gone though. My grandmas sofa wasn’t older than me, then when we got our own dog when I was 12, he got ran over by a truck (and I saw it very close, and picked him up after he was driven over by a full semi tire). Then our next dog was done which was a sort of rescue, but from a trainer. He was my best friend ever.

      I’ve cried more over my dead dogs than I ever have for any relatives.

      So yeah, I’d like to get a dog, but as I live in a bedsit and am kinda depressed, I don’t know whether I’d be justified in taking a dog… There’s better homes for pups to go to.

        I’m sorry about that, I can be overly optimistic sometimes. And I’m sorry you had to witness that, especially at such a young age, losing pets is awful. I’ve lost many myself too, I get it. But I hope your depression improves, I know it can be really tough. Again, I wish I had better advice to give. I just hope that I could make your day a little better at least.

          Thank for the empathy. I can’t overstate just how meaningful even a slightly empathic message can be. I’m grateful.

          Honestly, like had the guards had 1% of that empathy, I would’ve never been abused like I was. And Finland wouldn’t be as ass if the general population did as well.

          Edit who the fuck is downvoting you lol

            That’s good. :) I mean, I tried spreading positivity on a political post once, and someone downvoted me then too. Idk, people are weird.
