There are approximately 73 million people in my country and I'm one of a couple of long time regulars from the UK on this forum.What the fcuck is wrong with me.

It's not about the nature of the forum, it's about whether or not this is somewhere you feel comfortable talking about yourself and your issues and somewhere you feel you belong. Who cares what the title of the forum is. It's much more important than you found somewhere you feel welcomed.
In the grand scheme of things that's pretty damn special, if you ask me.

Thanks.I really just don't know how to reply but thanks.Depression is a bummer for me when I can't drink to get through it. The worthless numb feeling sucks.

It's okay. Depression has been hitting hard for me too lately. You're not alone. DM me if you wanna talk.

Likewise @kaetic and @Just Games

Last week the depression was hitting me hard too, for several reasons.
I was just kind of spazzing out, engaging in unhealthy habits (doomscrolling).
Like a moth to a flame, the stuff just has a pull on me sometimes.
It was bad. The weekend going by my Mom's and snapping out of it, has definitely helped a little.

I feel like I’m sitting under a troll bridge.

Relaxing after working all weekend and cleaning my place.

The original song was actually in my head earlier and then I see this.

I think attendance would go up if they stop playing doctor Phil in the break room...

I got in another online fight this morning, that started off my day on the wrong foot and set the tone for the whole day. It's getting fewer and further apart that I get into those things, but when it happens it still gets me mad.

I knew how it was going to go too. These things are predictable now.

It was totally stupid, I knew what kind of person I was dealing with and I knew that I shouldn't be spending time on this because it's pointless, it always goes the same way.
I think their views are smug, sh*tty, and toxic, but it always brings me down to their level.
I call them out on their offensiveness.
Of course they always want to get the last word in.
And I want to tell them to f*ck off.
And around and around it goes.
An hour goes by.

I guess once I get the sense someone is like that, just avoid the topic, hit Block/Ignore/whatever it is, and be done with it.

This is very similar to my response about how you handled that guy that come kept around. Don't engage in useless things that waste your time & energy. You may be doing it because you're bored, but it's a waste of time.
