Recovery Partners Megathread

[Nowhere Anon]

30 F Brazil

I'm not entirely sure about trying to recover, but I might give it a chance and I think a recovery partner would be nice, I'm willing to help too in a dynamic of helping each other to get better.

22M - Sweden.

Im looking for someone to talk to, age and gender dosent really matter. I don't have a particular subject so we'll just see what happens. I'm a black guy, I like basketball and anime. I'm on Zoloft and I'm still adjusting, I'm having dark thoughts but I'm pushing though. If you're interested, pm me!

33 F - Somewhere in Europe

I'm looking for a recovery partner, I can support them back too if needed. I am trying my best to recover and am in active therapy, I've changed a lot in my life and on paper things are really good, but I am going through crisis, quite intense one and I'm struggling to find strength. I have some people in my life I can rely on to an extent but I have learned that I can't really tell them how I truly feel cause they freak out or get angry. And what I really am looking for is someone who I can speak to often, daily if possible, to rant and vent to so I can find the strength to keep going. Maybe it's a lot, but I can offer the same. Obviously no romantic interests etc. Just someone anonymous to talk to that doesn't freak out at the thoughts of CTB.

Middle aged male somewhere in North America.

I'm honestly just desperate to talk to someone and feel like I have a friend. Age/gender/race etc not relevant to me. Must be able to relate to marginalized and excluded failures. Must be able to criticize party lines of any variety. I hate lying and those who get others to lie.

Im not sure what can I offer... Im just tired of talking to people who dont understand this and say the typical stuff that I dont want to try to change and shit...
Im very lonely and never had any motivation to do anything...

 

[Mixo]

Late 30s female
I've managed to achieve meaningful recovery after many years of suicidality due to chronic, debilitating health issues, family rejection, and other life problems that most people would not come back from. Hobbies include computers, technology, animals, meditation, cooking, music, personal finance/investing, reading, self-improvement.

I'm happy to be a sounding board for anyone very interested in trying to get on a better path, or for anyone who wants an accountability partner when they lose motivation or slide into cynicism too deeply. Not looking to meet up irl but online conversations are cool with me. Probably best if you're around my age and not actively suicidal (I'm probably not going to be terribly helpful if you're currently wanting to ctb).

Hello, I'm new here and thought of making a post here just as I saw yours, after thinking about it I think I may need some help, I don't think it's serious but maybe just some life advice would be nice? And maybe I'm stupid because I don't know how to contact anyone on here.

20 F europe

I suffer quite hard from feelings of loneliness in my depression/suicidality. I'd like to try being recovery partners so I can combat this better.
I'm currently a uni student so anyone else in uni with similar issues as me would be really nice, otherwise I'm open to anything to make this stop.

26 M from Asia

I've attempted a few years ago and was on a somewhat good recovery path, got a full-time job, started working out, started going out a lot more, got a girlfriend.

All this until the covid pandemic happened and I lost my job and my girlfriend cheated on me, I still work out and do part-time work but I feel like I'm just surviving at this point. I've grown more reclusive ever since and my anxiety is at an all time high to a point that I can't handle interviews. I feel this downward spiral mentally, like everything is very slowly crumbling away and everyone is leaving me behind and I'm helpless to do anything.

It hasn't come to a serious point like a few years back where I viewed everything in a negative light and was bitter as all hell, and I want to have hope, I'm just not sure how. I guess I'm finding someone that I can be honest to and they with me, with no judgements but still voicing our opinions. I'm not looking for someone to give me hope, just company to maybe ease our burdens together.

My hobbies include Games, Exercising, Reading, Writing, and Horror. I used to be very into Anime too but nowadays I just watch what's popular. We can just talk about anything (if you want to vent too it's fine, I'd like to think I'm more of a listener). Or play games (Overwatch, League of Legends, etc. though I'm not very good at them) Or just watch a movie or TV Series together, I'm down for anything.

 

[franzhype]

25 M - Argentina, Buenos Aires.

Interests: Video games, reading/writing, violin/guitar, anime, kittys, long Discord calls, and watching funny or paranormal videos/TikToks together, studying computer engineering.

So… my girlfriend recently left me. She was my favorite person, my closest friend, and the partner I thought I would spend my whole life with. She truly was everything I ever wanted. All my time revolved around her, talking to her, waiting for her, and doing things inspired by her, like playing video games together, making playlists, or writing. Now, I'm completely devastated and trying to find something to fill that empty space...

I'd love to make new friends to play games and chat with because I feel really lonely most of the time, and I am... I don't mind your gender, age, or anything else, I just value connection. I feel more confident speaking Spanish, but I understand English perfectly fine. I enjoy sharing photos of my daily life, having Discord calls until we fall asleep, and I would love spending time together while we try to get better and recover.

Feel free to DM me if you're looking for someone to talk with 24/7, I mostly use Discord, if you prefer talking on there.. I'm pretty much always online.

35 M from Spain

My main point is that I do not enjoy anything in life. Everything costs effort and pain. I always been alone, but I always needed a woman to give meaning to my life and to give it meaning... So I would have strength to deal with the pain of existing... The loneliness of not having anybody has always caused me huge pain...

About me... I do not like to socialize, or having friends, or going out, or traveling. I have depression and autism. Im always in front of my computer unless I have to do errands, although most of the time I am bored. I play or watch videos and stuff, but mostly single player.

Sorry to repost, thought to be more honest...

Looking for someone who wants to connect. I have had health issues for a long time and struggling with mental health on top of it. Im a good listener and I feel really alone.

Hope you guys can feel better in this hell hole.

22 F from Poland. I enjoy reading books and learning about fashion history. This week or next, I plan to try fitness and ping pong. I have depression, social anxiety and I'm very lonely. I'm self-employed, but I've worked very little due to my mental health. Hopefully, that will change soon.

 

[itbelikethat]

25/M usa. Would like to talk to people as myself, going through a difficult time atm.

I've cut off the people I hung out with irl because I felt quite toxic.

Pm if interested, we can make arrangements on whatever platform you wish.

50m UK. Going through a dreadful separation, been cut off from my family including the kids, living alone in a strange city. Have CPTSD. Anyone in a similar situation would be good to share and support each other.

 

[-nobodyknows-]

Hi. I'm a 25 year old guy in the Eastern US. I'd like to chat with someone who's okay with supporting me a little bit. If you are planning to ctb though and don't want any support please do not reach out to me. I cannot handle getting close to someone and then losing them.

While I've been trying to recover, I can't say for certain that that's the path I'll go down. I want to, I really do, but I just don't know if it's in the cards for me. I'd like to have someone who's okay with setting up specific times to chat on here. I can be quite melancholy when I'm having a problem so please don't feel too bad if I don't respond to your support in a positive way right away. Most likely I will come back later and thank you though. I do my best to be supportive of others, but I can be rather awkward.

I have depression and anxiety. I have been in treatment for nine years at this point and have done everything from therapy and medication to hospitalizations and ECT. At this point I've managed to get off medication and am trying to do normal things again, but being around other people is making things worse.

I enjoy anime, with some of my favorites including Angel Beats, Oregairu, Shinsekai Yori (the book is also really good), A Silent Voice, and the Heaven's Feel movies.

Feel free to look over my posts to learn a bit more about me. If you think we'd be a good match please reach out to me and tell me a little bit about yourself. I'm not really comfortable with a lot of people though so please don't feel too bad if I don't reply to you.

 

[sakakap]

21m from the netherlands. i recently went through a bad breakup and life has felt very tumultuous since. i've tried hard to recover, i even got a job but i keep feeling like i'm on the verge of collapse. i don't really have anyone to talk to, i can feel my eating disorder becoming more prominent again and over time there's been a significant increase in the amounts of time where i feel like giving up and trying to ctb (again).
i feel like i need someone i can talk to, who can help me sort my thoughts, give me a bit of a push to improve my life and who can make me forget about how bad things are atm.

sorry for the negativity, i promise that's not all there is to me .
