Here i am, 2 and a half months after i fell back into a deep depression. I am young, tired and now ready to pass on to the certain nothingness. I am to talk with the love of my life in a few hours. The very last time I believe I will hear her pulchritudinous voice… I am a young male with OCD, It had lead to a deep depression several years prior. How you may ask, one word, certainty. I am absolutely absessed with certainty, while nothing in life is certain except death. I can only feel comfort when i am certain, my 2 year relationship felt like a dream of certainty, everything I ever could want would be achieved with her. (she also is OCD and has been depressed for just as long as i have). I am the pickiest man alive, I know I could never move on, never try to live without her, never settle. I crave and need the best. This discussion that is so near is merely of whether we can be friends, if this was to work out, i know one day we could be together… However, she (who always wanted friends the day we broke up) is now almost unsure, she believes the damage of having me as a friend to me would be to much. I have reassured her that the only damage that would be done is if we were to completely sever any ties. Still she insisted, however I brought up any strong logical arguments that she decided to think on, but I feel hopeless that they will change her mind, she is as stubborn as me, strong and unyielding… We both know that we can’t move on or have anyone else, but without being there to help her, i feel more useless then i did prior to our relationship. I feel death is the only certainty that I can no longer feel this pain that makes me unable to function. I have explored almost every possibility, every option to help me cope, and i know my death will hurt her, but she also “feels” less then most other humans. I know she can get through it, I would write a lot more but I am to lost in my mind. These thoughts are random and all over the place and may not seem to make sense, i know there is VERY important details i have left out that makes this hard to say anything about.. I am just to tired to continue writing… so much easier in my mind… I will possibly write more later. hopefully then this’ll make more sense…. ugh how I can’t wait to welcome death and its warm embrace, long ago I have accepted it, I welcome the pain prior to death, it is a test of my strength, of what I can withstand. The final test of my life… so wonderful

crewde, you are young and while I understand to some degree what you are feeling and contemplating I will remind you that you are young. Youth is a beautiful thing. Youth is promise and opportunity without being bogged down with suffocating debt and no options. You have options and choices to make. Don’t squander your youth being miserable, there are tons of crazy things left for you to do. Good luck, mate.
Hey but death is not certain either! In death you have even less control than you do in life… It’s interesting you have this obsession with certainty but I’m not sure if yr certain you are ready to die…
Youth is not something i prize, i am not one to be crazy. I am not like other males my age, while i am considered good looking, great built and in great shape, i am friendly only to the extent of being friendly, i do not wish to make anything more of friends, i do not wish to hang out, i could care less to maintain friends. I merely care only for things i can control. Numbers are my friend. Death is my best friend. While yes death can not always be controlled, while I am young i have a lot more control on my end then do those that are much older if i so wish. While I do not believe in anything after death, in death I am certain there i will no longer have to try day to day, appearance or try to do well in uni for a better future. I can be certain there is nothingness. Yes i am not certain if the time is right, i await to see and judge based on my discussions with the ex to see the possibilities, if they do not go in any which way i know i can handle (because it’d just be a continuence of what i already am trying to handle and failing at). I am already willing, and ready to accept death and any pain just prior. I have the means, the will, and no fear. I only have lasted this far because my ex is quite intelligent, she knows me quite well, but not as well as she thinks, thus I slowly work at her to answer what i must know.
The only thing that has made me able to be strong enough is when I’m fighting this battle alongside her. A companion on a neverending journey, one that is destined for death. I like to think of it as a co-op campaign, it is much more cheery and prone to last longer with those that completely understand, know and move with you without so much of as a word. This time right now is here a bridge, between the continuence of the journey or the end of a journey.
Don’t let a situation where it did not work out in a relationship dictate your decision on life and death. Your life is just that…yours. no one elses. Believe it or not i understand what you are going through as I have been there. Only I was in a hospital over a man I was in love with who did not love me back and ripped my heart and soul to shreds. The thing is at the time I did not want to live. I did not want to deal with life without someone who obviously could deal with life without me. It took me three years of my life to realize I was worth something and anything he or anyone said about me and my bipolar disorder could never understand the battle I fought within. Never. Stop. Fighting. No matter how tired you are. No matter how much you lover her and feel that you need her. Life needs you that much more.
@crewde: Oh the irony. I hope this helps, I really do. You said:
I merely care only for things i can control.
My dear crewed, control is an illusion. Have you never heard the words of the old bard, William S. Burroughs? Ah Pook is Here!

Control is all an illusion. You control your thoughts, your actions, your responses, nothing more.
