Wanting to die - feel sad and pointless

Another useless thread. I just want to die. I want to not exist here. I was to be invisible and free.

@MynameisJune - I'm not sure why but it makes me feel better that other people struggle too. Very lonely feeling like the only one who can't get it right, it just for a week or month at a time.

Aww @AnyaMarx that sounds soooo hard. I bet.your dogs love you a lot and vice versa :)
Sounds very stressful though, I hope things improve....please try and remember to update when they do.

Let's see what tomorrow brings.

Oh and you will be worthy of a username .

You are .

You're here talking to me - you are valued .

Stick around . I'm a realist but I do know there are people in rl who do value me . Might not be the people I'd like but hey ho ! Same will apply to you .

I'm happy to chat . X

I get you OP. I feel the same. Wouldn’t take my life but just want not to be here.

It doesn’t make us failures at life. I think it’s just sometimes the sheer slog and crap that comes our way seems pointless, exhausting and never ending.

You are worthy of a user name. It’s your depression and hopeless feeding you lies. It’s what it does.

Please talk to someone, if just getting things out on here is a way to just put your feelings into words, do that if you can. I don’t know which philosopher said “Most people live lives of quiet desperation “, but that really touched a chord with me. It’s so isolating feeling like this and it’s not hard to think it’s just you and that everyone else is doing a better job of living life. They’re not. And you’re not alone. None of my family or friends now I just wish life was over. I do not come across as someone beyond sad, weary and hopeless. Find something relaxing and calming on YouTube if you can. Distraction and just knowing things are always changing. We might feel like utter shit now but that’s now. Keep going OP. 💐

I have felt like this on and off for nearly as long as I remember.

The key thing is ‘on and off’.

It passes, sometimes it takes a while, but it does pass eventually. Your children need you. They really do regardless of what you think.

Can you meet a friend for a walk in the morning? . Get some fresh air and walk. It helps, even a little, but it might be enough to get you through a few days, until this passes again.

Thinking of just running away , disappearing. Anywhere just live on streets. I don't know

My philosophy right now is as I said - when you are undecided- do nothing .

I think this is good advice right now. Totally get the wanting to run away from everything but in our heart of hearts we know we need a proper plan to do that and living on the streets would just make things a whole lot worse. Does anyone in real life know how you’re feeling ?

Did you talk to anyone @Notworthyofausername
