You sound like you’re experiencing depression.
See a doctor/therapist. Shrooms pulled me out of similar feelings when I was experiencing what it sounds like you’re experiencing. But root causes can be different so you should see a specialist, and these kind of life situations are why politics are important being able to get the care people inevitably need.
Dont worry about the political labels, but as others have said empathy is the important bit. LGBT+ causes are just the latest example of people standing up and essentially saying ‘hey im here too, and i have different needs, would you mind shifting these few things around so I can live similarly to you?’ and being left wing is mostly just saying ‘sure bro’ and making those few shifts.
Often people treat politics as a zero sum game and it causes issues. Unfortunately the conservatives in the dem party dont understand the people that support them so they keep biting the hands that feed them.
