So, as I mentioned here before, my life has gone down the drain 
. I'm physically and mentally sick 
. This has lead me to conversations with people who are suffering like me.
Recently talked with a guy who is slowly going blind (Keratoconus) looking for a painless way to go out. He had apparently tried to approach VAD (voluntary assissted suicide) clinics in Switzerland 
but realised he was not eligible (young and no life threatening illness). Like this one.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dignitas_(non-profit_organisation)
Dignitas is a Swiss non-profit organization providing physician-assisted suicide to members with terminal illness or severe physical or mental illness, supported by independent Swiss doctors. By the end of 2020, they had assisted 3,248 people with suicide at home within Switzerland and at Dignitas' house/flat near Zürich.[1] They provide advisory work on palliative care, health care advance directives, suicide attempt prevention, and legislation for right-to-die laws around the world.
Interesting stuff 
.
So now, he's looking into south american countries like mexico and colombia because one can get pentobarbital (drug used in assisted suicides) at pet shops there.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suicide_tourism
A drug known as liquid pentobarbital, which is used by owners to euthanize pets, can give a person a painless death in under one hour. Due to the drug's availability at pet shops, tourists seeking to end their lives were reported to be flying from around the world to Mexico.
He says he has some money saved up and will travel in 2 months or so 
. Honestly, I didn't even a say lot to encourage him to live which says a lot about how far I've sunk psychologically. I sympathised with him and mustered up some words about how I hoped he can get some treatment 
that fix his issue but that's about it 
.
I also joined a telegram group comprised mostly of socialist guys from slavic countries and a few from the middle east and latin american countries 
. Nothing particularly interesting there. Just thought I share 
.
So, how have you guys been?

Ummm username does NOT check out
But seriously find some hobbies that really interest you and immerse yourself in those. If any of those hobbies involve getting offline and into your local community, all the better. A sense of purpose/meaning does wonders. God bless.

How do hobbies give you purpose/meaning? They help you release dopamine, but doing things for enjoyment doesn't necessarily lead to a positive societal change or give you a good social, family, or romantic life

Ok yeah that sounds unpleasant. But none of my suggestions really cost much and have to be somewhat applicable to India.

I have a bad mental vicious cycle going on. If I do something that's not actively helping me get a job I feel guilty. I have limited options right now and I'm attending a course in hopes of landing a job in a few months. But it's a boring/soul sucking field and me being depressed makes it hard to focus. So I don't even study properly. The only good thing is I'm doing better than my peers here but I'm still not confident of landing a job once its over
.
And I'm so broke I'm eating only one or two meals a day.
