Just because I smile doesn’t mean I’m really happy. Just because I’m smart doesnt mean I’m mentally stable. Just because I wear clothes that cover up my body doesn’t mean I don’t have cuts and bruises from bullies underneath. Just because I am against suicide doesn’t maan I don’t consider it myself. Just because I help other doesn’t mean I don’t need help myself. Just because I like school doesn’t mean I like it because it’s fun.

Good post… I can see the direction you’re going. I paused on the line “Just because I am against suicide doesn’t maan I don’t consider it myself.”… I’m in the same belief cycle… When it comes to suicide, I’m against it… except for myself. It’s hard to explain… but you did.
Yeah. It probably comes from not caring about myself, but caring about others.
I know exactly how you feel. My heart goes out to others…
Yep… Mine too. Maybe more than it should, but…
Sometimes, yes… perhaps more than I should… But how much is too much? If I can’t find happiness internally, I’ve been able to find some externally… hoping perhaps the internal happiness will come in time. Knock on wood.
Yeah, that’s true, but I guess the point where not caring enough comes in when you don’t care if you’re living. I don’t know.
Good post.
And I no longer care if I live but hope others live well… if that makes sense.
Makes a lot of sense. Similar to how I feel. Thank you for your comment.
