Empathy
I read a lot of things about natural selection and how people value beauty over substance. I started thinking – I’m gonna do my own research! So I went on YouTube and looked people who was crying out for help, mainly those ones who use flash cards. The “attractive” ones got all kinds of support and sympathy while the “overweight” and what society views as “unattractive” got mocked and made fun of, even if there issues where more serious. It’s sad! Empathy being induced in the human mind based on physical attraction…….another example of the insane majority.
I consider myself to be an Empath. You might be one too. It’s been extremely difficult to live and function in a society where people don’t really have empathy so it’s hard for them to really feel what somebody else is going through. And that’s why so many people are ruthless and cutthroat, you know. Being and Empath is like having a finely tuned ‘Bullshit’ Lie-Detector. It’s really strange to have the ability to really feel what other people are feeling because I don’t know how to handle and cope with it. Now, staying away from strangers is easy enough; I just don’t go outside […]
Hi, I’m new to Suicide Project.
I really seek for empathy and love.
I feel that I’m a total failure. It sucks how people can hurt each others. This world is messed up. Nobody understands me.Â
If anyone needs real help, I’m here. Â We’ll stay strong together.
After 3 days I know why I post here. It’s because I can say whatever the fuck I want to people who can sorta understand what I’m going through. I don’t have to interact with people. I just can throw stuff out there and never have to deal with conversation. My three friends (the only people I could actually call friends) know a lot about my MDD but not everything. It’s too much for me to give them details. It hurts them more than it helps me. One of them, Abigail (no last names), suffers from an anxiety/depression disorder. More anxiety than depression though. She […]
Many things people think about sociopaths is that they are dishonest, narcissistic, and unremorseful. We are, but I promise you I’ve never killed a puppy. Nor am I a serial killer. I’m most certainly not Mr. Sherlock Holmes. I am very intelligent and clever, though. To be honest, I can fake empathy very well.
Believe it or not, sociopaths can be depressed. I am living proof of that. While I cannot feel sorry for you, I can very well feel sorry for myself. It’s all in the level of psychopathy. I admit it, I’m self centered. I won’t be naive and deny it. My therapist says that […]
I haven’t posted here in two years. Sadly, nothing much has changed since then. I still want to die. But even in this moment of pure agony, I want to extend my arms out to all of you and hug you tight. You all deserve love, empathy and trust.
And I have no idea why I’m posting it here but, I am. I’m exhausted. The only true smile that has come to my face in the past few years was just before my attempt several weeks ago – the rest of the time it has been this forced curvature which, I must say, I’ve become quite the expert at creating. The sadness. The consistent failures. The burden I’ve been to so many for so long. Iit’s just so tiring.
For almost 30 days I’ve had no contact with anyone in my personal life save three individuals one being my “brother” who lives quite literally thousands […]
Set your gazes to the sky,
Look your sadness in the eye.
I don’t believe you want to die,
Silly, crying child.
Brace yourself against the ill.
Stand strong and ignore the chill.
Placate the monster with a pill.
And you with life will reconcile.
Warm yourself in rays of sun
Set tasks that can be done
And then you’ve normalcy won
If you go that extra mile
Bring yourself to places new
Take great care with what you do
Beget another friend or two
It will be easy after while
Build it up, build it high
Your life should now reach the sky
Live now not as a […]
I want to die, but I don’t want to fuck it up. Helium hood, pills, slit wrists, even asphyxiation with semi suspended hanging and other variations, drowning….so much can go wrong i don’t want to wake up in the hospital with my world in even worse ruins. I’ve been there 8 times to date. I’m done with that. I don’t want sympathy, empathy, anything, I just want to die. I can’t get a hold of a secure source for cyanide or ******** as they can steal your money and leave you dry–already lost hundreds that way. I don’t know what to do. No subways where […]
**Disclaimer: don’t do drugs mmkay. It is not my responsibility if you do, be safe, be careful, be responsible. Don’t do stupid shit.**
Guys I have been there. I want to show you what it is like but I can’t, I can only describe it. It was so intense, some might have been afraid in my situation, I thought even the bad parts made it better.
I took presumingly 140 microgrammes of LSD (well that is what the guy who sold it to me said). I took it at home by myself to explore my mind (not recommended, especially if it is your first experience with psychedelics. […]
Hey everyone.
I am so unbelievably unhappy that words cannot describe the myriad of emotions (or perhaps lack thereof) which plague me with an intensity that is almost incomprehensible. However, I currently have the urge to try to do so for reasons that I do not know. Â I am not begging for attention, sympathy, or pity. I am merely using this post as an outlet for my own thoughts and emotions which I cannot express by any other means than by writing them down. Then again, perhaps I am subconsciously attempting to incite empathy, to offer others a glance at my own perspective with the intention […]
Every time I see you I want to end it sooner. Because of you I can’t even watch tv without being jelouse even if it is all guarbage. I don’t have as much empathy for thoes distraught over a brake up (sorry). I try to give you a friend cause you post I’m lonely but have a spouse. Even now thirs a young couple to the side of me happily sharing one anothers company. I hate you. It’s just too beutiful.
I won’t share my personal drama, since I’m sure most of you have enough with your own shit and I find it pointless to vomit a self-indulgent wall of text which screams “my life is shittier than yours”. I simply want to share this suicide-related issue and see if any of you are going through similar stuff and how you’ve dealt with it. Please refrain from posting “at least you have friends”-style crap.
I’ve already planned my suicide, even saved money for all the stuff that is required when someone dies (funeral and that stuff), and I’m always writting suicide notes telling everyone that this is […]
I’ve been visiting this site for the past few days, and have been wondering why. Why am I here? Why am I reading other peoples’ stories? Do I want to post my story? Do I get some sort of kink out of the misery of others? Do I enjoy other peoples’ pain? Do I hope that I might be able to sympathize or empathize with them? Why? The reason I post this now is because I think I now know.
Is there anyone out there like me?
I’ve been wanting to die for six years now and have attempted suicide seventeen times, but that’s not want I […]
I don’t know what’s wrong with me. I have almost no empathy. Everyone tells me and I don’t know what to do.
The best way I can explain this is that my sister has been through some pretty bad stuff, she’s been sexually assaulted and she’s got anorexia. But I don’t feel sorry for her at all. All I feel is inconvenienced, like this is affecting my life and it’s just annoying.
I know this isn’t how I should feel.
What is wrong with me?
Oh, look, Molly wrote something again. Let’s make fun of her wishes when she’s really being serious.
For all of you who feel like joking, it’s not funny anymore. In fact, it never was. Every time I have written on here I have been serious about what I have said.
Yes, I do plan on killing myself. The questions are “how?” and “when?”
More than likely it will be soon. I can’t take this anymore.
And the sad part is that I expected a little more empathy from the people on here.
So how about I make a joke now?
For all of you who don’t care, stop commenting
and go **** […]

People are so miserable, arrogant, and in most cases, idiotic. Why should I have empathy for any of them?
I was watching this movie called My S.O. Has Got Depression about a Man who gets depression and struggles to deal with it and how it affects his relationship with his wife. What I liked about this movie was how it well it depicted depression but for me what really made it hit home was Tsure’s (main  character) feelings of uselessness and how some of the people around him wouldn’t understand his depression and would approach him with a “you need to toughen up” approach to things. After watching the movie I read an interview about Tenten Hosokawa the author who wrote the book that […]
