Hello,
Long time lurker. I’ve bought a few fields and tags so I’m not necessarily new to fields and such, def not advanced though.
I’m here to ask for some advice. I will try and keep this short as possible but I like to write so who knows lol. I know people don’t like reading novels lol.
I’m currently at THE lowest point in my life. Going through extreme depression due to money problems. I’ve been trying to run an online business, making and selling custom items for people (just to keep it short and simple) since around 2020. I have thrown just about every dollar I have into this store (easily more than 10k I would say) with redesigning it, getting good copy, quality control and of course spending on ads.
I’ve even consulted with a few experts trying to get my social media booming however it all just doesn’t seem to work in my favor. My store idea has been proven and others are making a killing in this niche. People always say they love my work so quality isn’t the issue. However for some reason it’s like every single thing I try to do never seems to work in my favor, I just end up losing money without getting results.
This has put me in a pretty dark place. Due to the depression I’ve become addicted to p**n… like really addicted in the past years, everyday for hours. It’s the only way I feel I can “escape” to get any kind of temp relief even though I know it’s probably making things worse. It’s hard to find the energy to even get out of bed. I don’t even want to work on the business. I’ll try and find anything else to do besides work on it because it just leads me further into depression. Hell I don’t even go outside anymore.
I have like a few hundred dollars left to my name with store bills and everything else stacking up. I still believe in my business, but its like there’s an invisible roadblock to success. I know I need to deal with the depression, but getting my finances in order is a big part of that.
Are there any recommended fields or stacks I need to be listening to? I know it’s a bit of a long shot, but maybe there is some fields that can actually manifest money or at least help bring in consistent sales to my store and have me back on track? Any thoughts or support would mean a lot.
