I’ve attempted suicide 5 times and all that does is put me in a mental hospital and then my family hides all the pills and knives like I’m a child. I am pathetic. I do absolutely nothing but go to therapist and doctors appointments and get drunk on the weekends with my friends. Right now I’m drinking a bottle of wine hoping it’ll give me the courage to really end my life. I don’t see the point in living anymore there’s this quote I really like by William Styron “the pain of severe depression is quite unimaginable to those who have not suffered it, and it KILLS in many instances because the anguish can no longer be borne. The prevention of many suicide will continue to be hindered until there is a general awareness of the nature of it pain. Through the healing process of tand through medical intervention or hospitalization in many cases most people survive depression which may be its only blessing but to the tragic legion who are compelled to destroy themselves there should be no more reproof attached than to the victims of terminal cancer”…I really need someone to talk to that understands because I can’t go on like this. I’m such a basket case and no one understands or can empathize with the feelings I’m experiencing. Can someone please tell me what there is worth living for?

everyone has there own set of reasons worth living for.
how old are you?
are you going to school? work?
girlfriend? boyfriend?
I’d like to know the answer to that question too!
I think happiness is worth living for. Some people will never find it though.
Think of the things that would make you happy in life and try to attain it.. and if you never find it at least you know you tried. I think we owe that to ourselves.
I think I’m one of those people who will never find it….
Im one of those people who will never find it either, only in death and a new life :/.
everything has a set of reasons worth living for.

I’ve always felt I was one that would never find it either but that didn’t stop me from trying. Twenty+ years worth of trying.
I’m happy for the ones that do find it though.
You know enough that staying out of the system is probably a good idea.
Please consider in your times of desperation:
You have options. The one your picking isn’t the best one. You know this.
You ask what there is in life worth living and I have to tell you that it’s really all up to you. You die – it’s over. YOU and everything that makes you up is gone.
But why not try things you have never tried before? Maybe you need an extreme change like just moving – anywhere.
Dare to give a few wild (and harmless to others) ideas a chance! What do you want? Nothing? Then pick something strange and just do it for the hell of it. Most likely you have little money to make big changes, but you don’t have to. Do wild shit that people who aren’t dead can do, which is just about anything because dead people are pretty much useless. I’m not saying “make a difference” or “achieve grandiose goals” – that’s up to you. But will things like: taking a hobby you throw a dart at for choice, running all over town, reading something you’d never read, talking to people you wouldn’t normally talk to – be so challenging that you just offed yourself instead of trying them? If you have the “whatever it takes” to do that to hurt yourself to the point of death, then why be afraid to hurt yourself by trying stuff? Just do – whatever – y’know? If you’re willing to give it all up, then you might as well be willing to do just about anything else too.
