I’m not the kind of person to tell someone about my bad day. Or how shitty and downhill my life’s going. I’m not the kind of person that can tell you that suicide crosses my mind everyday. I dont want to end up in a mental hospital, but i know i am crazy. I have fallen so far in this deep hole called depression that is overloaded with dirt and is slowly suffocating me. What are you supposed to do when that happens? I hate my life, and i’m still so very young. I smoke cigarettes, and weed, and nothing will ever escape me from this overbearing feeling that i just cannot go on. If only someone knew. If only.

You’re not crazy. Everyone thinks about suicide at some point or another. It’s a social stigma fueled by religion in Western culture. Again, you are not crazy. Down? Probably. Depressed? Not for me to decide. Reaching out is a start…
I’m not the kind of person to tell someone about my bad day. Or how shitty and downhill my life’s going. I’m not the kind of person that can tell you that suicide crosses my mind everyday. I don’t want to end up in a mental hospital, but I know I’m losing it. I hate blood and never imagined I would ever be able to cut myself, then today at work I found myself putting a rubber band around my wrist, for no reason. I snapped it, liked the sting. It’s still on my arm. For the first time ever, I understand why people cut.
I know exactly what you mean when you say “black hole of depression.” I feel it too. I feel myself pushing everyone away. This afternoon I started crying as I drove down the road, wishing a truck would come along and just end it all. I’ve been dealing with this sort of thing for years now. I’ve had some really low points, but I’m coming very close to surpassing them. I know it. I can’t wait until I have an opportunity to get away from my parents house and back to mine, where there is weed waiting for me. I’d be there tomorrow if I could.
I know what you’re feeling. I could have written this post myself.
You’re not alone. You came to this website for a reason, to see that you aren’t a one person band. There are a lot of us here that are suffering through similar things. Not the same things, but similar. A mental hospital sounds scary to some (me included!). I have heard it can be a break to get away from all this chaos and can be so helpful. But I realize it’s an individual thing depending on personality. So I am not saying it is the way to go. My hopes for you are to be open about any and all ideas that may be helpful for YOU.
