What did we do to deserve this? I don’t get it. I don’t understand. And how does someone get the idea that they know what someone else is going through. And therefor they think they can tell them what’s best for them. “Don’t kill yourself, it get’s better” Sorry, but I’d beg to differ. I’ve been in this sheer torment and pain for 13 years of my 20 year existance. For some of us, our destiny is to live in pain and then die at our own hands. I will never tell you what you should do with your body. If your heart can’t take the pain anymore, than it can’t take that pain anymore. I respect everyone’s decision, whatever they choose: because it’s THEIR FUCKING BODY AND LIFE! Sorry for my depressing and ranty style post. Just had to say that.

Because humans are egotistical pricks who think they’re so smart and above others. That’s why people just “know” what’s best for someone else. And also, people just LOVE mandating what people can and cannot do with their own bodies.
Chosen? By who, or what? If you believe in God, I guess that’s a hard question to answer. If you ask me, we weren’t chosen at all, we just rolled snake eyes too many times when genetic traits were being combined. You certainly didn’t do anything to deserve it. Just like kids living in war zones, they didn’t do anything to deserve being born in a war zone. It’s all just random, really.
And yeah, I hate people telling me what I can or can’t do as well. Nobody owns me. I don’t see how the people who brought me into the world without my consent have any right to tell me that I can’t leave if I want.
I do believe in God but I’m not here to force my religion down your throat. Thank you for saying I didn’t do anything to deserve it. In further thought, shame plays a big part in depression, as you probably know. Would you think that I, or anybody else born in a place in which you don’t have to worry about someone dropping a bomb on your house, deserve to feel depressed and anxious and all the other shit we have going on?
The thing is, if I did live in a place where someone might drop a bomb on my house, I don’t know that I’d be too worried about it happening. A lot of the time it’s kind of what I want to happen.
So does that mean that we DO have the right to be depressed and anxious and blah blah blah?
Other people telling you “it gets better” really do make you feel worse because it highlights the fact that they aren’t in our predicament and have no real concept of it. Unless they’ve experienced real depression themselves they probably think you’re just feeling a bit low with “the blues” or similar. Unfortunately that demonstrates just how separated we are from everyone else in our private hell and makes us feel even worse. I know they mean well but it can be detrimental in our frame of mind.
AHHH. Someone get’s it. Love you, Epilogue
