Im just done. I tried being the nice guy. I did all the right things, said all the right bs, all to make everyone else happy. But you know what? I’m not happy. It ate away at me, piece by piece, until the only thing left was a walking corpse with my face. Every lie I told to keep everyone else safe. Taking all the blame, all the abuse and ridicule, all the punishment. I can’t do it anymore. Recovery is a lie that posterboys preach, a lie I’m done believing in. I’m depressed. I’m done trying to escape it, trying to treat it, trying to fix it. I’m done lying to myself that I’m getting better, that everythigs working out. It’s not. I’m done surpressing the side of me that just wants to die. The side of me that hates everything and everyone. I’m done pretending to be alright, cuz I’m not. I’m done. With life, with hope, with love and forgiveness. I’m done with myself and everyone else. I’m done with everything and everyone. I’m done being sober, I’m done being SI free. I’m done being good. I wouldnt change a thing even if I could, because this is my life now. I’d rather be depressed or dead than bullshitting my way through life. C’est la vie, adios mezzo mi, y es el fin.

Hi lostchild. I know what you mean about trying to be strong and happy for everyone else. I don’t think you can live that way,just burying your feelings and your pain,because it does eat away at you on the inside. if you need someone to talk to,talk to us. no one should have to bury their pain,it’s not healthy.I hope you won’t give up.what does SI stand for? I don’t think drugs or alcohol ever help anyone,truthfully. it just numbs the pain for a while and honestly makes it worse.please don’t give up.
Lostchild you sound like me for the last few years until recently.
And since my date is planned and my loose ends are tied I’m going to enjoy myself until my last day.
If you want to go I respectfully wish you a speedy end.
But if you choose to stay there are ways you can live life unconnected.
Be a survivalist, maybe tour the world working for room and board, etc etc.

I can relate to these parts .. family, doctors, psychologists, cops they can all shove their help up their ass-s .. I know this is how I feel deep down and I refuse to keep fighting to repress, censor the person I’ve become

…lying to yourself, pretending your better, acting as if your fine for the sake of others is the worst. i learn that when i just start crying at random times..if u wanna talk e-mail me at lol.wallace@hotmail.com
Darling i know It hurts but please be strong, i know exactly how that feels lying to myself and others constantly that life is worth living, well i dont feel as if it is, but please dont go, one day all of the awful atrocities will not matter and only your happiness, do what makes you happy, wheres that warrior ive discussed before, hang in there. Death isnt all its hyped up to be anyway, sure its an escape to total nothingness or perhaps heaven awaits, but life will get better, just hang in there please, I know exactly how it feels. <3
