I& #39;m properly depressed about what has happened to the UK.

I& #39;ve not slept properly for about four years now. All I think about is how to get away from here.

Nobody in the real / non-Twitter World seems to be taking any real notice of the chaos going on. They "keep calm" etc
I& #39;ve been told to "stop watching the news and reading about politics. You can& #39;t make any difference, stop trying, accept it" and "The Government wouldn& #39;t do that, that would be stupid" whenever I& #39;ve pointed out actual facts and policies.

I want to escape from the UK, but can& #39;t
I was hoping the transition period would be extended, but now I can& #39;t see it happening.

I was hoping to escape in August, but that doesn& #39;t look likely either, with the pandemic.

I& #39;m 50 this year. I don& #39;t want to spend the rest of my life in Brexit Britain. Yet there& #39;s no escape
I didn& #39;t want any of this shit.

I& #39;ve locked down to stay safe. I& #39;ve done the right thing. I& #39;ve done my best. Tried my hardest.

Now I& #39;m gonna be stuck on this fucking island during a 20 year Brexit inflicted depression.

I& #39;m not sure I can do it.
