Find people to talk to. If you can multitask taking to them while doing something, do it. But if you can give a good conversation some dedicated time it helps.
There’s ‘serious’ talk like a therapist, but even just basic ‘whatever’ talking with friends and acquaintances helps me get out of my own head.
From what I can see in your post history, you haven’t commented on a single one. I think I know at least part of why they’re dead. Maybe that’s a Lemmy account thing where I can’t see it though.
But I can’t say that I have gotten a few responses when I’ve been posting. Not always live during a game, but the beginnings are there, considering it’s still preseason.
