Alrighty then. First post here so let me jump right in. Iโm depressed. This winter has been harder than usual. Iโm struggling. Sigh.
So tell me something good. A funny pun. Something that brought you joy this week. What the best part of your week was. What youโre looking forward to this coming week.
Or just say hi.
Welcome ๐ค stick around! there is a lot of love and passionate people here. I hope we can cheer you up a bit.

Are you new to bitcoin or just new to #nostr? It's tough to be too depressed around this mad bunch , there's too much going on, too many rabbit holes.
Hi.
I was depressed for a long time, culminating in me, a dedicated workaholic ghosting work and family for a week. The folks here on nostr helped. My life is improving and I'm out of my darkest place. There are people here that are genuine and genuinely positive. Interact with people. Find ones that interest you and are also interested in you. Build a community. It's almost too easy here to build ones that go deeeeeep. Sometimes too deep. ๐ณ But, you have to want to at least put in a bit of effort. There's a very heavy emphasis on V4V (value for value), and as such, if you bring something useful, funny, kind, intelligent, or even super dumb, you'll be met with more than you expect. I like it. I think I'll be sticking around for a while I hope to see you around in the future.
As someone who has been helped by the community and kinship I've found on nostr, how about we help someone who is being honest about her struggle?
I have nothing particularly profound to say other than I hope you have a series of profoundly happy events happen to you in quick succession.
Hi ๐๐ผ have a good time here ๐ซ
I'm sure I speak for many that you are not alone. We have our dark moments, ones where we contemplate ways out of the immediate pain. Know that as sure as the sun will rise tomorrow that the past does not matter, and that our plans for the future are never certain.
Hi welcome. 
Hi! Welcome! Keep sharing; you and your voice are needed here. ๐

Going to the Jacuzzi and drinking a beer or two after a good workout is usually the best thing in my week. Like today! Hyaaa! ๐ค๐ฝ๐๐ฏ๐ป. You got this!!!!!

Hi Erica ๐๐ป
Welcome to the family ๐ซ
Welcome to Nostr. Sorry to hear its been a dark winter. You are not alone a lot of people are struggling. I hope things get easier for you. We are happy you are here though ๐๐๐ซ
Welcome to nostr. I was going to post a meme but then realized that I have a very dark sense of humor and decided not to post one on your thread.
Anyway, best wishes, I hope you come out of the darkness and start to feel the sunshine on your face.
Hang in there. Things change.
Hi

Hi! This week, my little one has been extra smiley. Example pictured.
Every time I see or hear my husband talking to her or taking care of her, my heart soars. There are some kind, honorable, amazing people in this world and one of the best of them had a baby with me, so the amazingness can continue into the future. This gives me so much hope; I hope it helps you too ๐ซ
If talking to someone about stuff would help even more, Iโm here ๐ 
Hello! ๐ Getting to hold nostr:npub1e2rd2k45ym2jmctnysfadxumrvrr57vqj69ck6trt2y62c40r0kqs9lx8t's and my little cute baby after a day at work is the best thing for bringing me joy. I hope her smile can bring you some joy as well! 
Hi, welcome. I hope you appreciate dark humour. ๐ซ
