20M looking to make close friends

By close friends, I mean talking regularly, having deep conversations, and getting to know each other in ways no one else does. I don't do ghosting, and I'm willing to put a lot of effort if the other person is. As someone who knows what it's like to be abandoned, I take relationships very seriously. I’ve had multiple hours-long conversations on here, but people either abruptly stopped responding or deleted their account without warning.

About me: I’m very self aware and pretty nonchalant about practically everything. I like psychology, ethics, creative writing, game design, and coding (especially writing).

I don’t have any preference for M/F or time zone (though I'm EST, so similar zones are easier), but please be 16-26. I would also prefer someone who's mentally ill as I think it'd be easier to relate to them (I'm a little bit depressed :3). I'd like someone who's loyal/"clingy", able and willing to talk daily and not just disappear after a few days.
