I did. It's real good! Games about staying alive as long as you can stress me out, but "stay alive for ten seconds, twenty seconds for a bonus" is just the right amount. You do one room, go on to the next, it never overstays its welcome.

Accessing support is hard cause no one has the resources to meet demand and waiting for appointments feels like being in limbo. I know it's tough, it's also much better to have started the process than not

I'm just finding the process is getting me deeper into a dark hole. These people are mostly polite, but I think they could be a bit more sensitive. Today felt like I was regressing to some of my toughest periods.

i'm right there with you bud, bad days are bad but depression bad days are loving dire

i'm trying to focus on giving myself permission to say gently caress it and do whatever I feel like I need to do because tomorrow or the next day it'll be better and I can move on. it helps to try and remember last week when I felt okay as a reminder that "oh hey i don't actually always feel like this"

anyway i hope you find the right shrink, I went through half a dozen bad experiences before landing on someone who rules. keep at it! but not today, today you can just say gently caress it!

I've posted this question in a couple other threads, but never got a response, so sorry if you're seeing this again:

Has anyone had any experience with playing the Windows 10 versions of the Neo Geo Arcade Archives games by Hamster? Just want to know if the emulation is good/if there's any reason to pick up the other console versions instead of the Windows one? I know the Windows store/xbox app has its own issues, I'm just curious about the quality of the ports themselves.

In the spirit of optimism and good feels, I will say:

After spending about twenty-five hours in it this past week, I will declare that Hades approaches what I would call a perfect game, I can perceive no flabby bits, no bummers, no wasted potential, no misses of any kind. I love every single element of its graphical style, its voice acting, its character design, its dialogue, its mechanics, its gameplay loop, it’s rare to find a game that attempts to do so much and excels at all of it

Yes, Supergiant finally made a game I like

Can’t believe no one on this entire forum has ever spoken up about this gem of a game

SexRex talked me into it on New Years, it was a great start to the year. That dev has an incredible grasp of "come up with a dumb mechanic and wring it dry for 2-3 hours."

e: If it's not clear, the Disc Room dev also made Minit, my 2018 2nd place goty.

The only thing I wish Hades had was more dungeon themes. By the time I reached the end of the storyline, the handful of dungeon layouts overstayed their welcome and I was getting tired of seeing them. This is nothing new for action RPGs, but Hades is too small. It would have been nice if you saw different layouts, dungeon themes, and bosses on each of the 10 storyline runs, and then repeating dungeons for the end game.

Always remember that when it comes to therapy you are allowed to try out different therapists until you find one that you like. Think of a therapist like a pair of shoes. There are plenty of shoes to go try and some fit others better or server purposes that you don't need them for and there's a pair somewhere in your size that will suit your needs.

So if you have the opportunity to, try out as many therapists as you need until you find a good one.

I personally haven't done so to their face but I've definitely had bad therapists before (and bad advice/counseling from people who tried to go outside of their doctor-role and play therapist) and it has always been for the best to just switch to someone else if you're not feeling a healthy patient-therapist connection there.

If you can articulate why it's not working (other than "this person is an idiot" which definitely happens) then yeah. I actually got to my current good shrink by a referral from a shrink I didn't get along with at all.

Anyone who is feeling down, you are not alone. Please also count me in as someone who is willing to listen and talk if you want to.
I've been through some dark times before and really do want to help if anyone is feeling similarly.

This community is honestly generally pretty great :)

Every therapist is going to come to their work with their own values and have their own blind spots and that can often conflict with the aims of the client. If part of the reason you feel like poo poo is because you're working class on poverty wages and insecure job that's not gonna be solved by a therapist who believes in bootstraps (for example). You absolutely have the right to see a therapist that is the right fit for you and therapists will be able to deal with you rejecting them.

Like, if you broke your arm you wouldn't wrap the sling around your leg. It's the same thing

I mean, if you're a successful actress and you go out of the house in a skirt and without underwear, knowing that paparazzi are just waiting for opportunities like this and that it has happened many times before, then there's really nobody you can blame for it but yourself.
