to much to type really, I am only human and can only handle so much, I'm at the end of my rope
I feel like giving up, permanently

[farewell]

Maybe all of this is just how it’s supposed to be. Maybe things won’t change and that’s just how my life is supposed to play out. It pains me to know that I might just be wasting my time sticking around.

i wish i could just get away from everyone.
just my partner and me honestly. and not have to deal with anyone else.
it's like no matter what we do we can never win. im tired of the constant criticism and im tired of trying to please people just being thrown under the bus.

i worked my butt off and did everything my sisters asked of me but it wasnt enough and all i was to them was a coward, trash, a runaway. i constantly took extra shifts at work because none of them would ever show up but all i was to my coworkers was lazy, good for nothing.

everyday it's someone saying something to me or about me and i can't do it anymore. im a weak person and everyone has nothing to say but bad about me when i did nothing but try to please.

im just tired of life man. when does it actually get better bc at this point it's just getting worse by the day and im tired of everything.

I've been doing okay for a while
but tonight
I feel the surface sad
and I feel the down of depression sneaking
back again and I'm not looking
forward to it

I honestly wish I could try a therapist again
but I can't, thanks lack of insurance
and I feel awful talking to one of my friends about it

I hate feeling like I drag them down too

[loulou800]

i really have a complicated sense of self-worth.
like one minute, i'm king of the world. everybody loves me, and i love everybody.
then, my brain just decides to rear it's ugly head every so once in a while and hits
me with that sweet, sweet depression. and it's never just "okay", either. i'm only
extremely happy and positive, or i'm crying and wallowing in self pity.
it's life's saddest see-saw. and i'm buckled in tight, friends.

I always feel the same and I hate it, I hate that I've never bothered to do anything about it, and I hate that every day I wake up thinking it'll be different and I'll succeed and feel decent when I fall asleep, yet I fail every day and I become more miserable every day and there's an endless list in my mind of things that I wish I could be, it keeps getting longer and longer and the only thing that comforts me is plastering stickers all over my bed so I can be reminded of the only time in my life when I was truly happy and pure, I never know what to do and if my life goes on like this for any longer I'll go mad

hey you two, I totally understand your feelings and where you're coming from :c
I'm so sorry that you guys are feeling this way because it absolutely sucks. ahh
I, too am feeling a similar way and it makes me feel beaten down. Like, you think
you're progressing in things, but in a split second you're back to where you started.
Or i think that I will be better one day but instead I don't do anything at-all to make
me feel better so i just wallow in sadness, loneliness, and yes, self-pity.
I think something that helps me a lot though is when I listen to empowering music,
and when I make the effort to hang out with friends when all I want to do is stay home.
I'd like to say that I'm extroverted, but the things that weigh me down make me not
want to do anything at-all. So when I don't want to go anywhere, I think it's okay to
be sad, and it's okay to cry and to find comfort in being by yourself. but finding
a space where you can relax and try to feel just 1% better is better than nothing!!
Some of my favourite songs that I've found during this period of feeling like I'm gonna
go crazy, or if it feels like I'm gonna be in a rut for a long while are (and the songs I
chose for this list here hopefully are quite general, so it can be focussed on your situation):


"Don't Kill My Vibe" - Sigrid (she's like my all-time favourite)
"Overnight" - Maggie Rogers
"Rainbow" - Kacey Musgraves
"Sometimes People Suck" - Ashe
"Forgotten Love" - AURORA
"comethru" - Jeremy Zucker
Please don't hesitate to reach out if either of you would like to talk!
Admittedly, I'm not the best at answering messages, but I will respond to your
message with time, and would love to talk c:

I'm super duper duper anxious about travelling alone at the end of this month, to the point of where I can't sleep. If someone with experience travelling alone could PM me that'd be more than awesome

[houndoom]

having adhd is terrible and lately it's just not getting better. i cant study for my exams, i physically cant. and im going to be graded poorly and im going to disappoint everyone and im going to start hating my damn guts again and so on and so forth... you get it.its a vicious cycle. i just wish i could HYPERFOCUS for Once in my dumb life on something i actually need.

[kanata]

no, mother, i'm not mocking you when i explain to you that i can't do things as fast as you.
i genuinely can't. i take 40+ minutes to get ready for school, and when you mock me for it and i explain myself, it's not being rude.
please. just stop.

A while back I made a vent on here about some creep who stalked me and my friend around college and stole my college ID card (he was never caught, but in the previously mentioned posts, I go into a lot of detail about all the evidence piled against him, specifically the creepy amount of attention he drew to the picture of me on said ID card.) and for several months now, he has left me and my friends alone completely. I was just recalling the incident to someone today, when I remembered an encounter I had with him the other week, which, at the time, I had completely brushed off considering the fact he hadn’t said anything. The more I think about it, the more uncomfortable I start to feel, as I hadn’t really considered just how weird it had been, and I really don’t understand why I hadn’t, considering who he was.

Me and two of my friends (one of whom became our friend after the incident, and was unaware) had been heading off to lunch, and on our way to the canteen, we saw him. Not really strange, considering that since the initial incident, we’d seen him a lot (the college isn’t really that big) and since he never made any attempt to speak to us, we didn’t take much notice other than to instinctively speed up a little to move away from him. That was when we started queuing up for lunch in the canteen. My friends were just starting to pay for theirs, and as I was waiting to be served, I felt like someone was staring at me. When I turned around, there he was, standing directly behind me. I’m talking like, inches from my face. I almost jumped out of my skin and quickly turned around, and he tried to act normal. I got my lunch, and me and my friends ran out of there as fast as we could. Afterwards, we explained the situation to our other friend, but all of us ended up brushing this new incident off and started a new conversation topic.

This was over a week ago now, and it’s only just starting to settle into my mind how... off it was.
Again, I’m probably just over-exaggerating it in my mind, and it was likely a coincidence he was there, but considering the past, I can’t help but feel really uncomfortable about it now. I never told my parents about it because by the end of the day, I had completely forgotten about it, only probably remembering it now.

It’s probably nothing, as he seems to have taken to the staff’s warnings to stay away from us, and I haven’t seen him since, but I really just needed to get this off my chest.
