If you sit waiting for peace you will never find it. If you sit around simply hoping that life will get better that you will get a sign that there is a reason to continue, you will get nothing. ACTIONS, very important thing here. Without that you can’t expect anything. You have to do things to better your life and it’s not gonna happen over night maybe not in a week or a month or 5 months. Just think of it in terms of losing weight and getting toned, you can’t expect to be completely in shape in a month especially if you haven’t fully committed. Same concept here you can’t expect a better life or to be completely happy in a short period of time especially if you haven’t been committed about bettering yourself. It took me awhile to realize this even though it shouldn’t have because I should have known this. I love myself yall like I truly do I care about myself and it is such a beautiful thing. I am almost done with college this is my last year and I graduate. I am loan free so I’ve been paying for school out of pocket and intend on being debt free. I have a new job and I never thought I would find a job like this. I love it, the people their are amazing! I’m single still and I intend on being so until I am stable. I no longer hurt about my first horrible relationship I finally have peace. I haven’t shut love out, in fact I hope that some where out there is a person that will love me like I deserve to be loved or even better than I deserve. I can’t say that I believe in marriage right now. I’m taking baby steps and I would like a serious relationship eventually and I’ve even considered wanting kids in the future. My health is better and will get even better because I am taking care of myself. None of the negative things people say or do affect me because I choose to remain positive. There is a light at the end of the tunnel I swear, you just gotta work hard continuously to get there.

Nice constructive post. That’s good but I’m not sure its that easy for all. I’m a little older have less of a direction and has its grasp on me a little stronger. Then you may say fight harder. There is no real cure all for suicidal thinking I don’t think. You can try formulate and come up with solutions but in the end if you’re too depressed to fight it out and mentally unwell that’s another kettle of fish its sometimes a no hope just to either enjoy the good moments and to visualise an end to the solution when times are bad. I hope you do well in life though and take it easy choose the right person to fall in love with and continue being strong
I understand where your coming from. And believe me I tried and tried and tried all my life to get better. Sometimes people are mentally unable. It’s not as easy as “just go out and do it”. My mind crippled me from my earliest memories. I have Personality disorders of the Dependent, Paranoid, Avoidant, and Obsessive type along with major depressive disorder, Complex PTSD, and sever anxiety. I struggled with this all my life and will continue struggling because that is how my brain is wired.
I realized that there is no help for me. And even if there was do I really want to go though years of hell to get treatment? Hell no! It’s not worth it. I’ll order one shotgun with extra slugs please. Thank you!
just enjoy your life.
The problem is, it’s impossible for me to enjoy my life, just like it always has been because of how my brain and other people’s brains on this site are wired. Some are more flexible, others aren’t
Most of times it doesn’t depend only on the actions you take; the environment where you live, people’s actions towards you, your own mental and physical health. But yes, very true — things won’t get better if you don’t take action. You’re the ultimate owner of your life.
I wish you the best.
Of course not I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder and being that way you’re in a mental hell but you have to find ways to cope and become better. If you aren’t willing or committed then nothing will change. That’s a choice that we have so we can’t blame anything and everything else for it. Also I come from a negative environment one where I was sexually molested and belittled and ripped apart. People have caused me so much pain and disappointment but you know what I chose not to let it get to me anymore and instead of focusing on all the bad things keeping me from being happy I chose to focus on what I need to do to get to the happy place. Again it’s all choice I’m sure there are people that have worse environments but they had the will to do what it takes to make it out. Thank you all.
