I want to understand why you guys post on here and what you get from it. I feel like shit and feel very numbly depressed…. and that is pretty much the only thing i feel motivated enough to say on here. None of you know me…. you can’t truly empathize with my problems and you can’t help me. So what’s the point?
share your suicide story

It varies from person to person. I like the idea of sharing thoughts with like minded individuals. It’s passing the time until I figure out my next move. Honestly though, I can’t relate to most people here. The people IN warm up to are the ones that have exhausted plenty of effort and do not see the point in moving forward. The ones that have accepted this is what it is…..
You’re Paddington Bear – you’re a spectacled bear from the South American continent, in the deepest darkest jungle, and you wear a raincoat a lot. Of course we know you.
Heh.. but when you feel depressed, I can promise you that a lot of folks on here can emphasize with that, and whatever struggles you’re going through. There are a fair share of people from a wide variety of backgrounds, in a large range of different circumstances in their lives – at least one must understand where you’re coming from, no? Plus, you’re a human being – unless you’re really a spectacled bear, in which case, I stand corrected – and you share those human universals we all have that allows for social interaction to work.
They might understand a little bit but not properly…. they also dont know anything about me other than the insight the little rant would give them if i was to post one… therefore none of you can help solve my problems… so to me this whole venting on a website to random people on the internet is pointless. Maybe just not my thing…
Human problems are usually easy to generalize and relate to – but you’re right in that nobody here knows anything about you, at the moment. Well, for the most part. That can change once you start getting to know others – they’re usually doing the same thing with you when you do that. It’s no different from getting to know people at a bar, or a coffee house – but usually you don’t have the ability to revise what you’re saying before you say it, and there are no commas or periods, and you don’t have to press a button to submit your reply. Stupid technology has a ways to go yet.
Also, if no one in your real life does not care or you simply cannot talk to, it just feels better to at least take it out of your system. On this site, there are probably more people that might be able to relate to the situation you’re in than those that are actually around you.
Anyways…it seems we both have some sort of interest on bears. BEARS!
so far, I’ve yet to meet or speak with anyone that can fix my problems. So keep those expectations at a decent level. I’m past the point of trying to fix my problems.
I have people to talk to in real life but they wouldn’t understand how i want them to either. I don’t think anyone ever will at this rate (including myself). I am struggling to find the motivation to produce a reply with much substance so i’m gonna stop typing now
Of course I will never truly understand nor be able to completely emphasize with your situations and pain. But you will never truly understand nor emphasize with my very own pain and situations.
The only person who can ever help you is yourself. Yes I can offer guidance, support, and be a person who is willing to listen and help organize and devise a plan of recovery. But ultimately its up to you to take that first step. Not me, you.
Your the one who is going to want to change. Your the one who has to realize you have choices in life and you have the power to change your life.
Yes I may never know you. You may never know me, but thats doesnt stop me from at least trying to gain a bit of insight to your pain and at least try and show you that some people do care spite the fact we have limited abilities to truly help you. If we could have the full authority and power to do so we will but we cant and that where its up to you.
I stay here becuase I was literally believed I was at the end of my road in life. Im trying to pave a new road now, even if I am uncertain will it lead to you, im still going to push forward and keep breathing. I try to help and reach out becuase I want people to know that they are not alone. That people do care and are willing to the best of their abilities help them recover and pave a new direction in life. I dont want any one to end up where I did in life and I dont want to see anymore die.
We are all here at SP for a reason. A very universal reason.
We are all in pain. We all want to or have wanted to die.
It doesnt have to be this way.
I will keep trying to help regardless. Everyone has already given up in these people in life, why do they need someone at their lowest to give up on them now. I just want people to step back and give their choices second thought. Even if I have to leave a thousand comments just to get one reply, I will do it. To save a life is worth everything to me.
