Sorry, I'm not quite sure what kind of help you are asking for. I do know one thing though:
You really should leave that place if you can. My experience is similar to yours, i also feel like crap after spending time there. Quitting that site and never looking back was a relief i hope you can share.
If you're talking about being surrounded by reminders of a system you hate, i can relate. Can you talk more about them without doxxing yourself? If that's not what you want to talk about, then maybe
Are you asking about help with anxiety and sensory overload issues? Cuz i can relate there too
somewhat like how to cope with this, i..e, I don't want these things to get to me. My life is in shambles and it's in a good part due to the lack of opportunities in my country and I know for a fact that it ain't gonna change anytime soon.
I first used to think lemmy is kinda mehh! But this thing is much more peaceful than reddit!
I don't actually want to talk about it, but I have lost hope. I used to think things would get better when I was younger, but they never did. I see the desperation and resentment in my people and the things they do out of it. Resentment is never a good thing! Never! I have seen people delude themselves, live shitty lives for pennies in salary, I used to judge these people, but troubles started when I stopped judging them, I realized these were people just like you and me, if they were in a better system they would be doing some meaningful work and if not that, they would have money for their medical bills (it's much worse than US here, so no comparision)
It's not their fault, but their lives were destroyed, they don't live their lives to the fullest, they didn't reach their peak potential because of the system they are in. It's not their fault! This was my wakeup call! This made me sad beyond belief, I tbch miss the time I judged my people, but I can't go back.
It's a part of a bigger problem, but yes, it would be amazing if I didn't fucking listen to all these machine noises 24/7
Huff.... It felt good to vent, haha... sorry, you helped by asking how you could help!
