Living and killing myself are both just too hard and take too much effort. I am tired of exerting myself everyday, trying to appear like I’m normal and belong on this Earth. All I want to do is lie in bed, put blankets over my head, and somehow stop my incessant thoughts. If I did this though, I would once again be treated as if my personal rights did not exist. My space would be invaded once again. I wouldn’t be allowed to do anything again on my own. My overprotective parents wouldn’t let me sleep alone or do work in my room alone or do anything alone for that matter like they used to do. They think I’m better now (and luckily they do!) but in all honesty, I’ve only been fooling them. I pretend I’m happy. I lie that I don’t want to kill myself. I hide my self harm to the best of my ability. But all I want to do is collapse in a warm ball like a cat and do nothing. I don’t want to exist. But killing myself takes too much effort. And what if I fail? I will have to go through such torture and no one will leave me alone. I’m sick of everything and just want to sleep.

Mental health limbo dude, I feel you.. Well enough to know what you need, not well enough to get it. Dependant on someone who doesn’t understand how bad you are so they treat you as being better but if they did know they’d cart you off to hospital or wouldn’t let you get any privacy. I wish I had some great advice but if I had some, I wouldnt be in the same boat 🙁
Thanks Mad Hatter… It’s nice at least to know I’m understood. I, too, wish I could help you.
No worries man, and thanks for your well wishes too. Take care dude 🙂
Overprotective parents, torture, wanting to kill yourself… I’m rather confused but, then again, my parents were the type to go overboard when it’d come to punishment and would quite literally emotionally and psychologically torture me, not to mention the fact that they did often beat me quite a bit, especially my father… he was rather, overly abusive to me… 🙁
But, I think I understand, you’re sick of them pampering you, and you want to live life and take risks and chances. Try bike riding, parkour, exercise or something like that, it’ll more than likely help keep your mind off of other things that might be bothering you. 🙂 but, that’s just my opinion and I strongly suggest that you don’t go and off yourself, okay? Things could be so much worse! trust me… I’ve lived through worse things then attempted suicide and people watching you like security cameras. 🙁
