This past week, I've found out the hard way that the nolinker and swinger memes aren't just memes. Almost every waking moment I want to scream, throw up, and cry at the same time. 2 days before link shot up to $2.14, I had a small stack of 537. I'm a poorfag, so this was something. Decided to swing the stack, sold it all to chase the rumored UOS pump from Korea Blockchain week. Nothing happened, so I would just withdraw and get my link stack back right? Wrong. My Shitfinex acc got flagged, got hit with kyc, can't withdraw. Then link hits ~2.47. Now it's ~$2.67, and it won't be long till it hits $3+ with all the staking and intel news. This was my ticket, man. I believed in Link, still do, but I missed the moon mission by greedily chasing a pump. Now my funds are stuck. I contemplate suicide everyday, among other reasons, and my brain is constantly trying to cope and doing mental gymnastics. I've refocused my attention to League instead of working out or dreaming of paying off my parent's house. Worst part is, I've told them about my investments, they've been supportive, and now I don't have the guts to tell them that a chink exchange fleeced me after I told them "I'll always be careful not to get scammed." I rant here because I'm scared of telling this to anyone irl. I need catharsis. Opening up here helps, and I'm sure some of you understand what this feels like. For those that got out of this mental and financial hole, share your experiences. Let's not be lonely right now.
