As the title suggests I don’t. The truth is I haven’t wanted to continue for a long time now. The only reason I do is because I know it only gets worse if I don’t wake up go to work smile and look normal. I’ve honestly and wholeheartedly tried to commit suicide before. Multiple times in fact. I always did my homework first. Had stitches and coma as a result. From overdosing to slashing my wrists I always chose a good method and I truly didn’t care how hard it was I was dead set intent. I was always well away ( or so I thought ) from the chance of being caught. But in the end some how I get caught 10 miles out in the woods or a peddle falls off my bike on my way out of town. I’ve been to therapy and had this drug and that shoved down my throat due to legal troubles when I was younger. Ive also tried therapy after all the trouble was over when I was in control. It never really helped. There are times when things seem a little better times when I begin to get a little hope but it always just falls apart again. While I’m kind of hoping for things to get better I don’t really want to try anymore. I lost my will to try a long time ago. Now I just do what I have to in order to keep things less problematic. Even in that I struggle. It makes a huge difference ,when u don’t really want to live let alone try, and u r expected to shower, eat, and take care of other normal daily responsibilities. I eat only to avoid a stomach ache, shower 1-2 times a month, clip my nails when they start giving me problems, and trim my beard when I have a sudden good day ( usually my beard has long since grown unruly, unkempt and beyond ).

I can appreciate the exhaustion in continuing in life. Every day is a struggle, every night an epic battle against inner demons. I think as we hit middle school, the rainbows and unicorns we thought life would offer disappear, and reality sinks in.. Without that ‘magic’ and sense of everything being attainable, our natural ability for energy replenishment slows.. I think when awful things happen to us during childhood, our ability to reboot energy stops… And that devastation leaks throughout us like a cancer. The heart, mind, soul, and body all shut down.
Walking corpses.
Ya know some people have nothing better to do in their life then catch people in a suicide attempt and I find that disturbing..
