Is there a community for talking about heavy topics?

There are a couple of heavy things running through my head I kinda want to get off my chest (nothing deeply personal though) and discuss with people. It's more than just casual conversation, so I can't post there.

Are there any alternatives?

- I hate you so much right now.🤣
- Lemmy doesn't have awards yet, but you'd definitely get one.
Confess your sins to the CRIME SKELETON

- Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: [email protected]
  
  Thanks
  
  Good bot.
- Great! Thanks for the recommendation. I think that's just what I was looking for
  
  Indeed, crime skeleton absolves all.
- Lol, I see we have similar feeds.
- I understood that reference
- please, the link to CRIME SKELETON is not working
  
  CRIME SKELETON isn't linked at all.
  
  But now it is:

Offmychest was the Reddit equivalent, I see there is a goodoffnychest on lemmy, one of the topics was "I hate my mother", so seems the right kinda place?

Also worth noting that your country probably has some kind of mental health/suicide prevention hotlines, and if your problems are more serious, you should use those services. Even if it doesn't feel that serious, it's what they exist for.
I think you need to be a little more specific.
I think it would depend on the subject matter.
[email protected] welcomes you if it's that type of stuff
- Aaaand... I'm off to deep dive. Thanks for the link!
You can search for communities via https://lemmyverse.net/ and see what would meet your need. Good luck.
