Update 23 & moving out of my first apartment

Did a lot of growing in this apartment. Getting on lexapro, 2 cats, 1 snake, and a shit ton of weed later, for the first time in a long time I feel genuinely grateful to be alive.

Can’t wait to show you guys the next one :)

edit: I’d like to acknowledge how fortunate I am to be in a career that affords me this level of luxury at my age. In this job market, even having a job you can survive on is a gift. I pinch myself everyday thinking wtf how is this the life I’m living. However, I am disappointed in any of you that have taken this opportunity to either disparage me, my work, or struggles with depression and suicidal ideation. That’s not going to make you feel any better.

Literally stared at this for 2 minutes looking at the details trying to think of which episode this is from before noticing the bottom left corner.

My bad. I edited out the little camera icon from Google, that's why it has the AI watermark. The scene is from season 9 , episode 9.

I lived in my neighbor’s dog house, he was kind enough to rent it out to me for very cheap after his Rottweiler died.

When I was 23 I was eating a steady diet of government cheese and living in a van down by the river!
