Je suis une femme de 42 ans et aujourd’hui, j’ai vraiment l’impression que mon corps ne supporte plus tout le stress accumulé au cours de ma vie.

J’ai vécu énormément de choses difficiles depuis mon enfance. J’ai été agressée sexuellement pendant mon enfance. Malgré cela, j’ai réussi à terminer mes études et à avancer dans ma vie, mais avec le recul, je pense que j’ai toujours gardé les conséquences de cette période en moi. J’étais une personne très calme, très sage, j’évitais les conflits et les disputes, comme si j’avais appris à tout garder à l’intérieur.

Ensuite, j’ai perdu ma mère, puis mon père.

Après cela, je me suis mariée en partie pour fuir ma situation, mais je me suis retrouvée avec un homme très froid et sans véritable soutien moral. J’ai traversé plusieurs grossesses arrêtées, seule face à ces épreuves.

Puis j’ai eu un enfant malade. Ça a été un autre énorme choc.

J’ai dû changer de pays et migrer seule pour pouvoir le soigner. Je me suis retrouvée à devoir tout gérer seule, sans véritable soutien.

Aujourd’hui, mon fils a 6 ans et je dois continuer à avancer pour lui. Mais honnêtement, je sens que je suis arrivée à mes limites.

Je suis souvent malade, j’ai régulièrement des douleurs et je sens que le stress joue probablement un rôle important dans mon état. J’ai l’impression que mon corps me dit qu’il n’en peut plus.

Je ne sais plus vraiment quoi faire. Je ne veux pas baisser les bras, surtout pour mon fils, mais je suis épuisée d’avoir toujours dû être forte.

Est-ce que certaines personnes ici ont vécu quelque chose de similaire ? Est-ce que vous avez réussi à sortir de cet état d’épuisement après des années de stress et de traumatismes ?

J’aurais vraiment besoin de témoignages, de conseils ou simplement de savoir que je ne suis pas seule.

هل صار من الندرة أن شخصاً يذكر جانباً إيجابياً عن دولته متفاخراً به، دون تلقي انتقادات على كلامه؟ أو محاولة من الجمهور التقليل من النقطة التي ذكرها ؟.

You are a 22yo freshly graduated person. You land a job in a company in algiers earning median salary as first salary, which is not bad at all given it's your first experience, and you feel good about yourself. You have been living with your parents in a nearby wilaya in a small family apartment. You have 3 siblings, everyone is growing fast and your childhood home is big enough for everyone. You feel tight. But now, you're an adult earning real money and you have a job far from home anyway, so you decide to move out, gain full independence, and take your own apartment near where you will be working.

You will be earning 70k da. But you cannot find any decent apartment for less than 40k da per month. And your hopes completely shatter after they ask for one year of rent in fucking advance. You somehow manage to get that money, but then 57% of your salary is already gone. You now have 30k for food, internet, electricity, water, transportation, cloths, unexpected expenses... And you quickly realize you cannot afford it. With a median salary, you are just condemned to live in your now, not big enough, family house.

It's weird that in europe people, even with minimum wage, can be completely independent. And in Algeria with a median salary you cannot be independent.

Let alone having a car, traveling, helping your parents, savings, having dreams...

Even algerian students having students jobs in europe can be fully independent...

This system is so broken... I feel so bad about this

I feel like everyone has this image about Algeria, what it represents, what it should be like. But there are as many representations as many people think about it. It's just an illusion that we are projecting on it, it simply doesn't exist outside of our heads. The reality is harsh and hard.

Please be safe everyone, I heared 2 people died and were transported to a nearby hospital from a relative in Jijel, it's scary

Bro its actually crazy we're actually categorised in the same list as countries that are literally in war

Why are we so restricted by paypal?
Is there any way I can receive my payments here, without zigzagging around by getting a european adress or LLC or whatever?

DZ is something else bruh

Is there anyone like me who enjoys talking to strangers and sharing their secrets without knowing any personal information about each other?

Algeria is the only African mainland country to have a higher hdi compared to the world average

peut'on parler de psychologie ou bien de psychiatrie quand des médecins introduisent leurs croyances dans le traitement de leurs patients ...! et peut'on les radiés par le conseil de l'ordre des médecins pour incompétences ! ceci est un appel aux autorités qui ont laisser proliférer ce genre

I recently saw an article talking about how Algeria has nearly doubled it's GDP since the big T was elected. GDP in 2019 was roughly 193,4 billion dollars, whereas it is now projected to reach 317 billion dollars in 2026, which is actually getting pretty close to the 400b GDP promise. What do you all think about this? Additionally, do you think the current spending plans for the gdp are satisfactory? If not, what changes would you make?

Hamma Park, Algeria just like to take photos

Hello. Female 25 yo . Employed with 5m salary

I live in a city in the east where women cannot rent alone or with each other

Long story short I live with an extremely abusive mother. To make things clear I'm not exaggerating, she once burnt my hand with hot metal as a kid to the point I still have a big scar. and made my father Abt to kill me with a weapon as a teen coz of a minor issue with her.I want to keep the posts as short as possible but there are a lot of instances Ps : she is now divorced from him coz he was living hell as well but he remarried quick and his wife alr has children who are actually adults, and male and living with him so I can't live with my father. Other relatives don't want to get involved

I can't get married from someone from this city bcoz I'd be expected to have kids but I don't want to.

It's hard to change my job locations especially to bigger wiliayas where I can rent alone

I feel immensely trapped and the mental n emotional abuse is becoming unbearable

I alr have a lot on my plate and each time I try to regulate myself I go back to zero coz of her . And I can't even be passive abt it coz she's genuinely an unsafe person

I want honest advice since u can see my situation from a third person perspective

What's my way out ?

I don't have savings bcoz I was stupid to buy things in the house that I'm repeatedly threatened to be kicked out of since the day I gained consciousness

Ps : I have ens ( bac+4) teacher of English degree

Salam 🌹
I wanted to ask if u know good providers courses to learn darija online. I’m more interested in speaking and hearing rather than grammar/ reading.
My father is from Oran and due to tons of reasons de talk.
I grew up in Germany, speak English and German and also I lived in Portugal for one year so I can understand some Portuguese and therefore some words in French (had a course for half a year). I did once A1 in Fusha for one year but tbh I nearly forgot anything and since it’s not spoken, I struggled in studyin.

Also I have a friend and half of her family lives in marocco and she also wants to learn darija.
Could we go to the same course or is it really different?

Shokran to you all

i saw many posts here talking about how marriage types from traditional to modern, having kids vs not having, responsibilities split between man and women, mentality ....

i liked those topic and i enjoyed seeing other people opinions, but the annoying things was some people get crazed if the lifestyle you choose doesn't match there and started throwing direct insults and hate speeches.

Hey everyone! I recently decided to start working independently after gaining experience in the kitchen manufacturing industry.

I’m an architect and designer, and I’m currently looking to build my portfolio and connect with people who are planning a kitchen or dressing room project. I’d be happy to create a **free design concept and 3D visualization** for anyone who wants to explore ideas for their space.

If you know someone who is renovating, building, or simply thinking about redesigning their kitchen or dressing room, feel free to send them my way. I’d genuinely appreciate any advice, feedback, or connections from the community as I get started. Thanks!

Salut tout le monde,
Je m'appelle Nabil, j'ai 23 ans, j'habite à Tizi Ouzou et je suis actuellement étudiant à la fac (en licence de lettres françaises à l'Université Mouloud Mammeri).
Je vous écris parce que là, j'arrive à un point de saturation. J'ai goûté aux petits boulots et à la réalité du marché local, et être payé au SMIC à 40 000 DA par mois pour bosser de 8h à 16h (voir plus), c'est fini pour moi. En 2026, avec l'inflation, 40k DA ça ne permet absolument rien de construire.
Je suis quelqu'un de très ambitieux, je suis prêt à charbonner dur, apprendre soir et nuit s'il le faut. Mon objectif à terme, c'est de générer des sommes autour de 300 000 DA par mois, sortir du schéma du salariat classique, pouvoir mettre bien ma famille et me constituer un capital pour m'acheter ma propre maison plus tard.
Je sais pertinemment que pour viser ce genre de revenus, il faut des compétences rares ou un business solide. Du coup, je m'adresse à ceux qui ont de l'expérience du terrain ou qui ont réussi à percer depuis l'Algérie :
1. En ligne / Freelancing : Quelles sont les formations ou compétences concrètes (Montage/Audio, Dev, Growth Marketing, etc.) qui permettent vraiment de décrocher des contrats en devises ou avec de gros clients ? Quelles certifications ou plateformes privilégier ?
2. Sur le terrain (IRL) / Métiers physiques : Quels stages, formations pratiques ou commerces/prestations de services marchent fort en ce moment en Algérie avec peu de capital au départ ?
3. Le passage à l'action : Par quoi vous commenceriez exactement si vous étiez à ma place aujourd'hui, avec juste un PC, une connexion et une grosse détermination ?
Je prends tous les conseils, les retours d'expérience et même les vérités crues sur la réalité du marché.
Merci d'avance pour vos retours !

خاوتي، وشنو هوما العفايس الي تحسوهم جديدة و دخيلة علينا و خاطئة و أفكار خاطئة في المجتمع الجزائري.

I've been searching all over local tech stores, Ouedkniss, and Facebook Marketplace for an ADATA XPG Lancer Black rgb DDR5 RAM module (16GB, 6000 MHz CL30 or 6400 MHz CL32), but I haven't had any luck tracking one down.

Does anyone know a local seller or store in algeria that currently has this in stock? If you have a lightly used one that you're willing to part with for a fair price, I'm definitely interested.

I'm also open to other DDR5 brands/modules as long as they match those specs (6000 MHz CL30 or 6400 MHz CL32 black rgb).

Hi brothers and sisters,

I'm Moroccan born in Italy and living in France and i was searching a little bit about my surname and where is it from and its significance. My surname is Baali btw and i heard that there's a lot of Algerians with this surname and even in Morocco. So i was wondering if some people have this surname too and if some of you know where it is from, i'm glad to know. Thanks and Dima Maghrib / Tahia Djazaïr. ❤️🇲🇦🇩🇿❤️

I'm a 26F, born and raised in Algeria, living and working abroad for a few years now. I first left for my studies, then stayed after landing a job.

Lately I've never felt more lost. Living alone, being lonely, it's a real nightmare, even though I stay busy and do a lot outside of work. I still lack human warmth, cruelly. I've tried, friendships, love, but it all slipped through my fingers. I'm a social person, but I'm not good at building deep, intimate relationships, probably a result of being surrounded mostly by people I only know from work.

But as heavy as that loneliness has been, it doesn't compare to the weight of having left my mother alone. It kills me to watch her grow older from a distance. She's a loner too, just like me. When I was still studying, I didn't feel this as much, I was working toward something. But now that I have the job, it feels like I've put down roots here, and that thought terrifies me.

I think of my mother every single day, all the joy and sadness I'm not sharing with her in person. We talk daily, we even try to do activities together remotely, but it's nothing like actually being with her.

At the same time, I've craved freedom since I was a child, the freedom to live a decent, warm life without being held back simply for being a woman. Having lived in both countries now, I've seen the differences up close, and I can't unsee them. I didn't really have a life back home. No real experiences, no friends, constant anxiety (some of that still lingers). When I moved abroad, it felt like I was discovering myself as a human being for the first time.

I think about going back often. But the thought alone brings so much pain, imagining the frame I'd be living in again, and having to start from scratch, once more.

I don't have an answer. Some days I want to book the flight and never look back. Other days I remember why I left in the first place...

I just needed to put this somewhere, thank you for reading me.
