A family who constantly makes things worse for you. Call you harmful names that push you over the edge every night.
Friends who see what’s happening to you but never speak up. No matter how many hints you give they will never help.
Teachers who see you struggling but look the other way.
Coworkers who see your smile fading each day yet never ask questions.
Why?

Why? Think about that. Why would anyone do anything in this life? Everyone is only interested in themselves. Anything anyone does is only for themselves or some sick feeling of gratification or pleasure that they may get from any particular activity. Want to get even? Then deny their pleasure by being absent from the process. Just simply don’t care, don’t react, don’t participate. Just move on to the next task on your list and eventually they will move on to more interesting prey.
What else is there to move on to?
“Friends who see what’s happening to you but never speak up. No matter how many hints you give they will never help.”
Maybe you should question your relationship and how much of a priority you really are to your friends. But you must always remember, just because you can see the hints you leave behind doesn’t always means other people can see them as well. You must not resent them nor think their intentions are of ill will simply because they are oblivious to your “hints”. No one is a mind reader.
“Teachers who see you struggling but look the other way.”
How do you know if they really see you “struggling”. What if they just assume your grades are failing out of irresponsibility and carelessness? If you didn’t consult with them about it any issues and maybe asked for extra help, clarification on certain misunderstandings or inquired about possible tutoring, then how could they know you are struggling and not just being irresponsible.

Same thing applies for friends, maybe they just don’t notice or know you are in pain? You might also want to take into consideration that some coworkers value professional relationships more over personal relationship, and/or are genuinely too busy and overloaded with work to take notice.

Maybe its time to take flight and move on from such toxic people. Family or not, no one should have to tolerate any disrespect and belittling from ajyone. Especially if they are only pushing you to the edge and causing you much emotional trauma. Distance yourself, don’t worry about them and take the time to mend your wounds. You are much more than what they say and they are simply trying to knock you to same low point as they are (Misery loves company).
Your right, life is almost never easy but then why should it be?
Maybe its time to stand up for yourself, rid the people who pose no benefit to your well being and speak up. Find your real friends and directly ask them for help, after class go up and talk to your teachers or even seek tutoring in and around your school, ditch the toxic family and seek real friendship among your coworkers. Who knows, maybe any of these people might need your help too but may have been too afraid to ask.
Its simple….. the answer is…
most people in this world are selfish and self centered and will not go out of the way for another if it inconveniences them too much or they won’t benefit themselves from helping you.
That is reality.
I don’t favor reality.
Because life sucks and humans are for the most part responsible for the fact that life sucks.
Humans probably suck more than life itself.
