#All while I'm bracing myself to lose my Nana to cancer

I am legit about to cry over how fucking hard this fangame is. I've been enjoying Pokémon Pathways and it's been overall good for my mental health. But it has level caps and I need to beat 5 really fucking hard trainers 7 in game days in a row. I'm on the last in game day of this rage inducing bullshit and after 4 tries I finally beat the first of the last five trainers, but I forgot to save afterwards and then lost to the second trainer of the day. I seriously had to hold back tears when I saw I have to battle the first trainer again.
I've lost 5 more times now and I hate myself. I just want my fucking level cap raised from 85. I don't even like these meant for competitive players challenges because I'm not a competitive player. I actually suck at battling without access to my bag. I need my fucking max revives. I worked so hard on this team and now I'm practically soft locked, unable to progress until I beat a practically unbeatable opponent. The one time I managed to win was literally pure luck. And I do mean literally; it came down to how often my opponent missed. My team doesn't have any accuracy modifiers.
I'm screwed. If I let myself lose I'll have to start over again, battling 30 increasingly frustrating trainers all over again. I'd rather abandon the game, learn how to code, and hack the fucking game than start this bullshit over. Why aren't there fan games for casual players who simply want all the Pokémon in one game? Why are they all for competitive players? Why don't they have an option to be slightly easier. Just let me access my bag damn it!
#Rant#No I'm not okay#My depression med isn't doing enough#And insurance won't approve my ADHD med that's also for my binge eating disorder#All while I'm bracing myself to lose my Nana to cancer#She's like a second mom to me#Cancer has already stolen two loved ones from me#Plus at least two family members I might have loved if they'd lived long enough for me to know them#I really need someone to make my life feel good again#I know that objectively my life is overall good and I'm very lucky in some aspects#It just doesn't feel that way right now#And the one thing that has been a constant source of joy in my life is Pokémon#I don't know how to handle a source of joy becoming a source of pain#Don't worry too much about me I don't have the self destructive kind of depression#I just need to vent#And I know other players will only tell me I'm too sensitive#Which maybe I am but I can't help it#I didn't ask to be autistic
