I’m relatively new to this site, but thought I’d take my turn to publish a post. The reason I’m on here tonight is because I am really struggling at the moment. I am really having strong urges to end my life. I don’t want to kill myself, yet I don’t want to continue living this life that I have created for myself. Very contradicting sentence, isn’t it? I just feel so alone. And I know isolation plays a big part in it, but even with people I still feel incredibly alone. I hate myself so much. I hate my body and my mind. I wish I could just be fucking happy. I’m sure there have been times of joy, but I don’t believe I have reached a stage of complete happiness. I have no idea how to. I just can’t let go of all this shame I have for myself. I want to find love so badly, but it is impossible if I can’t even love myself. I never feel like doing anything. At times, I just want to stay in bed and sleep all day. I want to disappear. I want a different life. I want to be a different person. I wish I could change, but my addictions are much too strong. I have tried so many times that I am sick of trying anymore. Happiness is not worth all of this work. It is too much of a struggle for me. I am too weak. I feel as though no one truly understands me and who I am. I can’t stop comparing myself to others. I wish I could be happy like them. I wish I had a bunch of friends like them. I wish I was funny and outgoing like them. I wish I was invited to parties like them. I’m just so fucking sick of this life. I’m not sure where I’m going with this rant, but I needed to get these thoughts out of me. They are still here, but at least I shared them with someone…..anyone.

Don’t fret. I can’t agree more. That’s how I feel. May as well live out of spite. Dying is not the answer. Cherish the good moments.
Funny how we can all feel the same and still have no answer. We just live on another day and then we find ourselves taking yet another breath and we keep doing it and we keep hating it, but here we are. Doing it.
Nobody ever said life was fair.
But they all want to jump on the band wagon to say you can’t quit.
I read your pain and share it as we’ll.
The question is, now what do we do……?
