Is it just me or depression is taking over everyone especially at the moment?
Hello world, I'm getting to the point of my life where I can feel this weird chronic depression taking over my life, I don't really enjoy anything anymore, life's boring, no friends, overwhelming family, no event feel good anymore. I have some hobbies but I caaaan't, I lost passion and it's getting worse everyday.
I know many of you are experiencing the same thing, especially early mid 20s, and apparently it's even more disgusting when you hit older ages. Why does our generation have that much of mental health problems?, last ones didn't care much about them and yet lived the best they could (not everybody of course).
Is there any unknown / secret cure to this or do I / we just have to life like soulless zombies ?
Not asking for anything though, I just wanted to cry out to the world.

Why do vendors still use Riyal😭
Genuinely why do some vendors still say prices in Riyal? It sounds much easier for both parties to just say in Dirham from the start. Is it like a test to see if you're really Moroccan or what?

Stop scaring stray animals while eating!😾
Whenever i leave food outside for stray cats, i watch from the window to make sure they get to eat in peace. But almost every time some person walks by and try to touch or mess with them while eating. The poor cat gets scared and runs away without eating anything... it's frustrating tbh.
What annoys me the most is that some people only feed stray animals if they let them touch or pet them, like they're doing it for their own pleasure not to help.
Please people let them eat in peace, feeding an animal shouldn't come with conditions at least let them finish their food then you can play if they want to.

We might not be realizing this as english speakers but…
We are becoming the thing we feared the most…
I grew up in a poor neighborhood hearing bad comments about people speaking french, such as their arrogant or somehow use it a signal of cultural status… never made friends with french as language, hated it, ran into English who seemed to have open arms and prosperity with endless options to consume and enjoy and wide possibilities…
Many series, books, songs conversations later… I found myself unable to express myself in arabic or darija sometimes, especially when interacting with strangers sometimes I find out that the lingo has just vanished…
Suddenly started feeling as if I became the thing I hated in the past, only an english version 😂 and there is no escape from having a subset of commentators in the future that would indeed accuse people such as me of talking in english and using it a status symbol!
Except that this time, I think everyone is inclined to learn english, and there are way less chances of this happening cause unlike french, we didn’t get colonized by an english speaking country, nor is English language limited in terms of content and possibilities.

Aggressive Marrakesh
So my friend and I, both male europeans, just arrived in Marrakesh last night and were walking around the Medina today, without destination. We're even pretty tall and broad looking, not even wearing shorts, so never thought we'd have problems. Still, in broad daylight of 15h, around Av. Bab El Khemis (accoridng to google maps), had 3 guys come up to us and say the street we were walking on was "closed for prayer".
Never heard this before, but whatever. We turned a different way and kept walking. These guys came around and started doing the same and diverting us to some alley streets. Then at some point one of them starts saying that there's some bad people in this other street, to pass quietly and that he's there so it's ok. At this point I'm like ok, I'm just gonna walk straight out of this street.
After a while they tell us to go another way and then left to get to the main street (as if we didn't know from maps) and start demanding money. Literally going around us as we kept walking and demanding money for "the service".
Literally told them to fuck off and kept walking, but they followed us for a while still.
Wtf Marrakesh?? I've been to 40+ countries, including over 1 month in all of Tunisia, and never had this happen. Not even India had this type of pushing, but got it in Morocco in day 1.
Bit disappointed, honestly...

Need advice on what to do!
Hi everyone, I need your advice on this situation:
So I live in an apartment building, and all the residents here are to pay around 120 dhs a month for the 3sas that guards our building, the cleaning lady that comes a few times a week to mop the stairs, etc. But we have run into an issue: multiple residents don't want to pay the fee and are finding excuses to not pay. As a result, there is not enough money to pay those who guard our buildings and the lady that cleans the stairs.
The building held a meeting to discuss this issue, and before the meeting they threatened to remove these services such as the 3sas and cleaning lady that the tenants enjoy without paying. Mind you, these tenants are finding lousy excuses to not pay: they have the money but will come with lame excuses such as "there is a tree in the way of my window so because of this
'inconvenience, we won't pay." I also think we have some diaspora who live in our building that make late payments, but ultimately the main problem is the ones that live here year round and are finding stupid excuses to not pay. Despite gathering the building for a meeting and threatening to remove the 3sas and cleaning lady, these tenants refused to pay which is really infuriating.
Because of this, we now have no 3sas and no cleaning lady. The garbage is overflowing in the front door, the stairs are disgusting, no one guards our building, and no one seems to care.
There was a suggestion by some to increase the amount that those who pay are paying so that the building can still have maintenance, but many have called that unfair because why should the cost be increased because of some horrible people who refuse to pay, but there's also the issue that some people can only pay 120 dhs and not more. Increasing the cost would be a burden on those who can't pay more than that.
What would you guys do in this situation? I need some advice because this situation is unacceptable, and those of us who actually care and are paying are suffering the consequences of a few who refuse to pay.

Taxis are a curse to Morocco’s image
Context: I am a student, living in Morocco for almost two years now for studies, and i chosed Maghrib because of friends and accointances who praised the country’s education and expertise. I was aware of the country rich culture and landscapes, so i made my choice and loved almost everything.
Almost is the right word here cause there’s one remaining issue that still anger me: taxis behavior.
I took a taxi from work to home (5min drive and never went above 8dh), and prepared for the worst cause some drivers are reluctant at first to give back change (not everyone alhamdulillah) but today was special: the driver snatched a 20dh bill from my open wallet, while i was looking for change. He then told me that the ride was 16dh and gave back 4. Knowing that the fare counter was off since the beginning of the ride, i told him to give back my change, harassing him for a solid two minutes until he started to give me bit by bit. Thing is i was in a hurry, and in no mental condition to insult, so i let him take 2 dh and stormed off.
Maybe insulting or punching him would’ve been the solution, but i decided to let him go knowing that eventually, Allah (swt) would deal with him.
Today’s rant could’ve happened the first time i set foot here (the driver from airport went away with +100dh more the he should’ve have, but i was unaware of the usual fare) but now, i think it sad to see such a beautiful country and welcoming people have their image ruined by some individuals. But hey, every country has it flaws i guess.

Are we too clean ? 😭
Hi 👋
I (20F) live in Europe, and my best friend is French/Polish.
I asked her what she finds most annoying about Moroccans, and she said it's our "obsession with cleanliness and hygiene."
She actually complained that it's annoying and if we go any further we and our houses will be transparent. WTFFFF 😭😭😭😭
I was too shocked to even respond.
Do you think we really have a "cleanliness obsession" in Morocco or it’s just the Europeans that are dirty 👀

Help pleaseeee⬇️⬇️⬇️
Hey everyone,
This is my first time sharing something this personal. I’m a teenage boy, and I really need a serious solution. I don’t mean to complain — I just really need help.
I grew up in a toxic family. They were the first ones who bullied me and made me feel like my life wasn’t worth anything. I’ve experienced a lot of emotional pain because of them. On top of that, I was bullied all throughout my childhood for being overweight — not extremely, but enough to be targeted.
From age 9 to 11, I couldn’t even walk in the street without being harassed or sometimes physically attacked. I had no friends, I felt completely alone and scared most of the time. I started thinking about suicide at that age, and I even attempted it when I was 13. I’m still here, but it left a deep scar.
Now, even though I go to the gym, try to improve myself, and make efforts to connect with people, I still struggle. I feel like something is wrong with me. I’m always insecure and mentally exhausted. I just want to feel normal and stop carrying this pain.
If anyone here has been through something similar or knows how to truly heal, I’d be really grateful for your advice.
Thanks for reading.
