I can’t believe I never heard of her before.
She is the the actual singer of Never Enough from The Greatest Showman

Whelps, it’s real folks. We can actually die from heartbreak.
“In 2018, researchers from the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center found that a person’s risk of suffering from a heart attack increases by 21 times in the first 24 hours after losing a loved one.”
And if we can die from heartbreak, I’m sure we can die from loneliness, depression and despair too.
But sadly for depression, it is SLOWLY killing us, slow and torturous, rather than the instant peaceful death many of us wish for.

from author of this video…
“We live in a world plagued with toxic optimism where people are pressured into taking the position that “life is good”. Those who claim otherwise are labeled “negative”, “defective”, or “mentally ill”. We are programmed to feel ashamed for even entertaining the idea that life may not be worth living.
This is why I came up with the “honk experiment”. A part of TRTNLE is to create an environment where people can speak honestly about their distaste for life without judgment… even if it is communicated by a simple car horn.”
Here is the video:
What do you guys think?
I feel that reading the lyrics to DSBM songs helps me to understand my depression and feelings of despair more.
I think this genre of musick is so beautiful but sorrowful, and full of deep emotional pain and Catharsis.
Home again, safe, and everything is calm, quiet even.
I always thought I was anti ascetic, self denial seemed like an easy escape from failure… and I’m not saying that’s wrong.
What I’m noticing is how going without makes having the sweeter. I won’t impose it on myself, we’re entering the season of spiritual fasting, lent. Silly, silly idea. I just lived without my bed, my dog, and my computer for seven days. It wasn’t too bad either, because we were all dealing with missing our comforts of home.
I saw an awesome concert though! I also got to listen to some live music while eating amazing pizza […]
There is an incalculable amount of eternities and infinities outside of time.
But, There is to much inner work that needs to be worked through and dealt with, as a human being in this point and time (especially when feeling heavy and depressed), to die.
If i commit the act of suicide my soul will be forced back in time against my will by Higher Forces, and i will be in the same situation i am now, but i will not have known my Soul was sent back after killing myself. I would have split into a new timeline, but one where i stay alive. The Inner […]
Leona Lewis- Run
so hauntingly beautiful…and so sad
the lyrics hits deep
If only I had that someone who care that much for me…
so I just had a complete breakdown, in the middle of writing about what’s wrong with me, SMU
I basically had a fight with my missus. Not really convinced it matters why, just we were both tired, I hit some unpleasant conditions for her….. and she was mad at me as a result.
Luckily/unluckily we’re sharing a house with our friends this week, so they got to be in the middle of it… and they were very supportive…. we don’t deserve them…. but that’s nice I guess.
I feel like crap right now. I can’t eat, because of the above conditions. I got fluridly suicidal for a short […]
1- Why is everyone here depressed? What is your root issue?
2- What things would actually help to make you less depressed?
taking care of oneself is a pain too, always having to eat, getting food, etc.
living requires maintenance. every day things exhaust me, grocery shopping, brushing teeth, showering, etc. i have health issues so even the most simplest of things become a chore. not just a chore, like climbing a mountain every day. it’s exhausting.
Sharing events n my life and in retrospec i fucking hate myself. Pulling the curtains and i dont feel like i have redeeming qualities. Shes rght, im satan
Tomorrow is my seventeenth birthday. Technically it’s in 1 hour, 23 minutes, and 7 seconds.
I should be happy, grateful even.
I don’t really know if I am allowed to be underwhelmed, but that’s the truth.
I feel so selfish for not wanting to celebrate or do much. I’m not trying to, but in reality I’ll just end up ruining it for everybody. My heart is as heavy as stones, and it’s dragging people down with me.
What a bummer, I know.
I’m in my third year of college, I can’t get a job for the life of me and I can’t actually learn anything or keep up with the school work, I can’t drive because I get panic attacks when Im even close to another car but my city basically requires them to be able to function, not that I even have a life outside my room. I feel like I’m on a countdown till it all blows up, everything I do seems to put me in a worse position than when I started. It all feels like a trap made for me to die in
3 different jobs within the past 12 months. All were steps up for me, but having to adjust so many times has wrecked me. Each new place became intolerable in its own way and as I suffer through the 3rd one now, I of course already recognized it’s me. I can’t fit myself into the ways and structure of society. I’m an artist at heart and every day reminds me I can’t do what I really want to do and expect to survive. But I can’t continue trying to fit myself into the roles expected of me either. It’s agony trying to make this work […]
We are all going to leave our body vessel and the Earth Realm eventually, at some point. That is certain.
There are 2 ways to go;
either something else will take your life. diseases, someone else taking your life, the elements of the earth breaking your body down at old age.
or you can just do it yourself.
i feel thats the most honorable way to leave this place. You take the personal decision yourself and claim your own body, and you decide when you “shut off”. that is true self-autonomy.

And what happens when you have NOBODY, not even ONE close relationship?
This article says relationships are what makes ppl happy. Yes, that is common sense. But depressed ppl generally have problems MAKING friends to begin with. Are ppl depressed BC they can’t make deep connections with others, or BC they are depressed they can’t make connections with others? It’s a chicken and egg scenario.
It’s a vicious cycle- those of us who are depressed are generally very lonely, but bc we are depressed, ppl don’t want to be near us, so we become lonely…which makes us more depressed….
