I hate you too mom

[Pudd;]

I feel awful. I still miss him. I know you never get over a family friend or anyone you knew passing, but I just want to not feel like it was my fault. I haven't talked to that person for a couple years, but knowing that they went through so much to be happy, and so much to be clean, and then it gets taken away. I know they're in a better place now, and they're finally where they belong, and where they wanted to be. I just wish we were there for him. I wish we could of prevented it. I wish someone could have saved him. I know, though, he is in a better place. He is where he worked and wanted to be, and nobody could take that away from him.


Anyways, I hope everyone has a Merry Christmas and to cheer up . Try to stay positive, and remember that you are cared about and loved for by someone. You may not know it, but someone does truly love you and may not know how to say it. I wish you all peace and love all your days.

im not okay. i havent been for awhile. i cant talk about it so ill be really vague but i went through something very traumatic when i was younger and im only just now starting to deal with it, and just last year i told my parents what happened. its really stressful and a lot on my shoulders. my depression and paranoia has become increasingly worse because of it. im struggling to make up classes in school and i quit my job because i couldnt handle the emotional distress on top of it. its just a lot ya know? i have no idea how to deal with this. i dont know how to deal with amything. i have no friends to talk to. my parents wont put me in therapy. at this point i might end up in the hospital again lol ! funny funny

It may seem mean, so please don't think I'm being like that, but maybe it'll be better to be back in the hospital where they have to give you a Chaplin or therapist to speak with, and can prescribe stuff for your depression and anxiety.

I hope you get the best help possible so that you can become the best you possible, too!

I don't know what you are dealing with, but I hope that wherever you are, and whatever you decide for yourself, that you stay safe.

Please talk to someone, anyone, so you can get the help you need. You may be the person that someone else going through the same stuff is watching so that they know how to handle it. Or maybe you will be able to help someone later on who thinks no one understands though the same thing.

Talk to a teacher, principle, pastor, Chaplin, relative... Someone. please.

You are important. Never forget that.

very menial and probably nothing important but I really wish people didn't always remind me to "smile" all the time or that I look "scary" or "upset". Apparently being myself means I'm doing something wrong, I guess.

There is nothing wrong with you, I promise.

I used to do that, go around all the time telling people to smile, whether I knew them or not. "Smile, sunshine!" was my anthem.

Know why?

I was trying to hide the hurt I felt inside. Tried to hide from it, too. Didn't do much good, but I made some other people feel good. And there were others that hated when I did it.

I stopped when someone told me (in a very rude and unforgiving way) that I made them "uncomfortable". They assumed I was coming on to them, even though I said it to everyone. So I rethought it, and stopped.

I'm not suggesting to be rude or unforgiving, but maybe telling people straight up that they are making you uncomfortable when they tell you to smile will help them rethink their approach to you.

When they say you look scary or upset, look directly at them and declare "Nailed it!" Leaves 'em guessing!!

if i was dead everything would be better and she'd be happy

But you are alive, and that is the best revenge of all.

Things don't get better just because you're dead. It don't work that way. Please believe that. There is always consequences.

You can move past this, grow past this, and forget her if she's like that. Be a success! Its great fun! And you'd be a natural!

Just don't give up and make her happy. She don't deserve it, and neither do you.

I have had the crappiest Christmas Eve.
I work in retail and people have been so awful to me today and crushed my hopes while I worked my butt off to help them.
I need to see some good in people soon. I know it's there somewhere.

Retail is gotta be one of the worst places to be this time of year. Really.

Its like people lose all sense of themselves and become greedy and self-centered in their attempt to be giving. They can be the nicest people any other time of the year. And then by Christmas Eve they turn into viscous madmen.

Turn on a sappy holiday flick (I like Seuss' Grinch - the old animated one) and warm your toes in fuzzy socks, sip something warm, and call someone you haven't talked to in too long. Doctors orders for restoring your holiday spirit!!

This morning I went up to my coworker (who rejected me when I told him I wanted to go out with him last night) and asked him if we were cool despite what happened; fortunately for me he's probably one of the most chill people in the world, and he said we were cool and we did that side hug thing friends do. I had the same break time as him later, and I asked him why he wouldn't go out with me, and he said because he's already trying to hit up this other girl and because I'm on school leave for 3/4 of the year.

Now I normally wouldn't be so wound up about this - I've been rejected a lot, so I'm used to hearing stuff like that. But what's getting to me is just how cool he is about it. After I asked that I sat next to him and just chatted with him the entire break, in fact we lost track of time and ended up being slightly late back.

It just kinda sucks knowing I can't have him, and yet those small anxious butterflies keep coming back sometimes when I think about him. I wasn't head over heels for him, but I sure am attracted to him still. And I'm a pro at keeping things neutral and cool, but inside I just... he's got too many amazing qualities for me to forget him as easily as I've forgotten others.

just found out im no longer going to be an older sibling.
on christmas eve.

[chaney]

i feel like a spoiled brat being upset about this.. nobody needs to reply.

i received gifts for hanukkah. don't get me wrong—i'm lucky to get anything at all. but i feel like my family doesn't know me. they never get me anything personal or special, they just give me something basic like a visa gift card or money. and i feel terrible for thinking this, because i know people may think it's better and you can pick out things for yourself, but it hurts because that shows how my family doesn't know me well enough to pick out something personal for me. i've known them all these years, but nobody has taken the time to talk to me about my interests. and i just feel alone right now so a hug would be nice.

[.zombie]

i swear to god these people...
complaining about the gifts they got or didn't get.
I got nothin for christmas.
or my birthday. which is on tuesday.
we aren't even having a dinner.
my family hates me.


merry christmas, stay safe.

I'm posting this for a friend, because she doesn't seem to want to open up to anyone about it. For the past few months, her parents have shown extreme favoritism towards her older brother. Along with that, she struggles with the stress of school and her parents making high grades a top priority. She brushes it off with jokes when I attempt to speak with her, but I want to be able to do something about it. I know she's hiding her suffering, and she's doing a good job with covering it up. Her other friends don't seem to enjoy including her into their activities, so she's basically lived this year in isolation. Again, her parents overlook everything her elder brother does, including activities against their agreement, while she is scolded for the smallest of things. I just needed to post a rant here, because she seems to be even more troubled by it now than before. I'm afraid that it'll get worse than it already is, and she'll probably end up keeping quiet about it.

@Everyone else
I hope your situations get better soon. Please try to enjoy the rest of the year, try to find happiness in something.^^

My mental state has been pretty terrible lately and I feel really alone, barring my sister. I talked to her a bit and she's tried to understand, which I'm really thankful for. I think I might have bipolar disorder, but I don't want to seem like I'm exaggerating.

I feel so guilty this, because everyone has it so much worse. If you do need someone this Christmas, you can talk to me. I love you.

[OKULTRA]

He grabbed me, almost threw me. Why does he care about her? I bet he wishes he never adopted me. I wish I could just disappear.

But you know, it doesn't matter. I'll survive. I don't matter.

you matter tons, omg. i bet you don't know this but just by existing you're making a lot of people happier.
that goes for everyone.
if you disappeared it would be a terrible time without you. all of your friends would think, "why did they have to leave? it's so lonely, i miss them. i wish they were here." and tbh it would be bad for all of us.
i'm sorry this is happening and i answered this from so long ago but it caught my eye.
stay safe, please! <3

everyone, i'm really sorry for whatever is happening. i'd go through all of these and help you out but i can't ;;
please stay safe and remember you are all loved dearly!
