This is nothing compared to Peru's presidential crisis.

Man here, all I have to say is that men's bathrooms are awful.

Glad you escaped from those torture chambers.

No, I'm Latin American; Colombian to be specific. I hope you don't get along too badly with her and that she gives you a little more privacy.

No, soy latinoamericano; colombiano para ser específico. Espero que no te lleves tan mal con ella y te dé un poco más de privacidad.

I have a few friends; they are empathetic to the whole situation. Only a few know about this incident.

I felt anxious and a bit attacked by her; I guess she would have brushed it off and told me that I was crying for small, meaningless problems.

I'd love to serve at an NGO or something, just any excuse to not be at home; it's even better if I can do something good out of it.

Thank you!

I don't completely hate her yet, but I really don't want to keep dealing with her.

A friend of mine has proposed I move to Canada and start a life in Quebec; that might be a good chance to never look back.

I was very mad when I heard that from her, but I've heard the same from people of my same age. Empathy is rare these days.

I'd love to try Niri. The only Wayland compositor that I have used for a long term is Hyprland, and it was an awful experience for me; I found it a little difficult to configure.

Hey, I just wanted to thank you as another Colombian.

You are giving people an excellent and balanced report of the situation, very well informed and written.

To be honest, he's a crook.

Most of his companies have inconsistencies in their fillings and are not profitable, so he might be getting money from dubious activities.

It's hard to say; this guy is way more extreme than the other right-wing presidents we ever had before.

[–] buran@lemmy.today 2 points 1 week ago

That's a massive understatement.

Colombian here, people actually do support this Bukele/Trump/Milei wannabe.

Half of us are morons.

 

I haven't felt great since a few years ago. I had ups and downs, but I have always maintained myself functional enough to not worry my family and friends.

Likewise, I have always been very pro-psychology, and it has greatly helped me with my problems. I never had proper appointments with an actual therapy plan until this year. Most of it was talking and venting at the student wellbeing office in my university and going to sessions in another university doctor's office.

At the start of the year, I had my first appointment for actual therapy in the long run, and my therapist diagnosed me with a mixed diagnosis of anxiety and depression. Even though I was greatly glad to know what was on my mind, I started to worry about how much I would rely on the health system.

I went twice or thrice with her, but all sessions have been question after question, and I don't feel I can do much right now. She hasn't asked me to do anything right now, and her schedule is full, and our next appointment was supposed to be around two weeks ago. And my fears about not being able to keep this in the long run are worrying me.

And I couldn't vent or talk to the wellbeing office either because she has been incredibly busy, and she's the only person qualified in the institution to do that. I have tried to talk to her, but everything is rushed and talked about super quickly.

Currently I don't have any suicidal ideations, nor have I ever had them, but it's increasingly more difficult to keep going as things are.

Thanks to everyone who read my ramblings up to this point; feel free to comment; I'll read you.
