I was going to say something much longer, even had it typed out, though I figured I'd just keep it short. I was raised with that more old school style of discipline, and while I won't go into details let's just say that it caused a lot of problems that I suffer from to this day. So anyone that...

@Doveland Oh cool, I played the cello from 6th to 8th grade and If I didn't drop out of high school I probably would have kept playing. I even have a little medal my class won from like the 7th grade when we entered a competition. Oh hey The Long Dark is on Game Pass, I might download that. I...

@Doveland That's the song that plays during the end credits, and I've always thought it was such a beautiful song. The first Xenoblade had a pretty lovely song during its end credits too, written by the same person that did the Chrono Cross OST. Geez just reading the names of those old messenger...

Wow can I relate. Since 2015 I've lost both grandmothers, 2 aunts, my dad, and my favorite uncle. All the losses have really had a horrible impact on me, because like you said it's hard to move on without them. So I know how you must be feeling, because it can really be overwhelming to have to...

I've always had that sort of anxiety too, though for me it happens during thunderstorms. It's something I've dealt with ever since I was a kid. I'm also guessing I'll see some form of that storm since I live to the east of Niagara, then again maybe we are seeing that I mean I haven't looked...

@Doveland Completely agree with what you said about music in games. To me music can sometimes have a bigger impact than something like the dialogue, or even what's going on in the scene. For example there's a certain scene in Final Fantasy 7 where someone dies, and if I mute the sound the scene...

@Doveland Oh you must mean Vivi in FF9. Yeah Vivi is awesome, certainly seems to be a fan favorite character. Do you mean Blitzball in 10, that weird underwater game? If so, that can be annoying at times even when you get the hang of it. Then again with the right team you can really destroy...

Link to the Past is a good one, I would say easily the best of the old school 2D Zelda games. There are 3 main entry Xenoblade games then a spinoff, and the spinoff (Chronicles X) is the only one not on the Switch so starting with the first game might be good if you ever wanted to try. FF9 I...

I'm the type that prefers the older style Zelda games, but I did really love Breath of the Wild. If you play Skyward Sword it's going to be quite different especially the combat. What are some of your favorite RPGs? To name a few I like Xenoblade Chronicles 1 and Chronicles X, Skies of Arcadia...

Thanks for the reply. I've been a gamer since I was really young too. My favorite game franchise is probably Zelda. I also really like the Metroid games, Sonic, Mario, various RPGs and driving games, and quite a lot of other things. How about you, what are some games you're into?

You could probably post somewhere about the name change. I was looking in that Site News section and someone had a thread about it there, so maybe try making a thread about it in the Site News area. As for Australia, nope sorry I'm in the US.

@imsotired Yeah I find it especially hard to feel like I belong anywhere lately even though the only forums I've been using are places about anxiety and/or depression, which I should fit right in but I always feel like an outcast. It's the same with me too in regards to feeling isolated with my...

That's how I've felt lately too when it comes to places like this. I recently came back here after a long break, and also went back to a couple of other forums as well, but I'm starting to think I shouldn't even be on these places. I find myself worrying too much about whether someone has...

It's definitely not fun, that's for sure. I feel the same way about my age too. I mean I know it isn't that old, probably only halfway through life, but it feels so much older. And I think it is just as you said, and it's that we missed out. It seems we both missed a lot of things in life...

I don't like to say much about myself publicly anymore because I know that there are people that like to judge, even on forums like this, but I relate to a lot of what you've mentioned especially the rejection and feeling like you'll be alone forever. It can really mess with your self esteem...

Yep, and it's pretty much constant with me. I'm sure it doesn't help that I struggle to sleep, probably from depression, but even in the rare cases I do sleep well I still feel fatigued. Sounds just like me. You have no idea how often I just want to fall asleep and stay asleep.

I'm not here to give you advice because I know that what may work for one person could be useless for someone else, though I can relate to so much of what you've said. It's such a horrible feeling to look back and see what could have been, then look to see where things are and the harsh reality...

In some ways that sounds like my parents, except mine don't (or didn't in the case of my father) seem interested in talking to me. I also understand the depression aspect all too well, as it's something I've struggled with for 20+ years now. I've even tried explaining it to my parents, even...

I can't relate to your exact situation, though I can relate to how you feel. I've struggled for 20+ years now, and lately all I can think is that I just want it to stop too. It's a bad place to be in when you feel that way, and I know all too well just how overwhelming that feeling can be. So I...

I haven't been here in a while, so thought I would try and make a new introduction thread. I struggle badly with depression and anxiety, especially social anxiety so meeting people and making friends is a problem. Admittedly I came back here after a long time away because I'm struggling now more...
