Been dealing with depression lately. Anyone else feel like there's just...nothing for them? Anywhere? (hexbear.net)

No job prospects. The work I do to support myself is come and go, and im probably gonna miss rent again. The older I get, the less friends it seems I have. None of my hobbies/passions excite me right now and just feel like a pain in the dick when I think about doing them. Every day is the same goddamn routine unless I go stay at my partners place.

It's cold and I hate going out in the cold, so that just compounds stuff further. Everything is dead outside. I'm tired, im always so tired. I can never get enough sleep no matter how much I actually get.

Feels like I'm just existing and I hate it.

Eh we just wing it. Wish I had more direction to point you in

Update: winged it, it turned out incredible.

I did a pretty bog standard mirepoix of onions, carrots, garlic ~~AND NO CELERY WHY WOULD YOU COOK CELERY THE CRONCH IS THE WHOLE POINT HOLY SHIT I WILL DIE ON THIS HILL~~, plus some ginger.

Added some rosemary and thyme, added the barley and some soy sauce for salt, and let it simmer for an hour-ish. Then I fried up some shrooms in olive oil with some salt and pepper. I tossed them in at some point and I don't remember exactly when that occurred. At the very end I tossed in a bunch of spinach and a tiny bit of sambal oelek.

Thank you for the inspiration!

Fair enough! Barley + mushroom gives me some ideas. I'll let you know how it goes!
