I just got a message from Reddit Care Services for the first time in my 9 years on Reddit, saying that an anonymous Redditor was concerned about my welfare. First of all, whoever you are, if you’re reading this, thank you, I really do appreciate that there are people out there who care about me (even if they are anonymous strangers), and you did the right thing by alerting care services. You’ll be delighted to know that I’m fine, I’m not suffering from depression, and neither suicide nor self-harm are on my to-do list, immediate or otherwise.
I must admit, I am a little baffled though – I’ve looked through my recent comment history and I really don’t see anything particularly out of character. Having said that, if there *is* anything deeply concerning I’ve said recently and there’s something you’re worried about, please feel free to DM me. And if *you’re* going through a bad stretch yourself, there’s no shame in seeking help
I went to the open swimming pool yesterday for the first time. I thought it would be crowded and cold, but I was pleasantly surprised! The 50 m pool was actually pretty empty, and I had no trouble doing laps. Also the water was heated (just a little to take the edge off, not really warm).
I have to say, affordable public swimming pools is one of the best things in Germany. Swimming is a great sport, and just being able to go to a public pool in the neighborhood is really cool.
