Does anyone just try so hard to keep living...but just feel so helpless?!
Question: Like, you want to keep living..but you also get so low that it'd be easier to end it all?
And I feel so lost, like theres no one to help, as no one understands.
Any tips?
I usually try to focus on something thats coming in the future, to last longer..
thanks

yes i do..well..i don't really want to keep living, but i'm trying to hold on.
for help, it would be good to talk to your gp, as he/she can refer you to see a psychiatrist - it sounds like you may have depression. i went and got help, have been diagnosed with depression, and am now getting treatment - being able to talk about how i feel is really helping. please seek help before you get worse, we don't want you killing yourself.
i try to focus on things in the future, though some days even that does not help. so i just try to take each day at a time, just focus on the present and getting through. when you're feeling helpless either talk to someone about how you're feeling, or give yourself a bit of personal 'me time', where you take a break from anything stressing you out, put on some favourite music, and just relax and do what you want to do. focus on yourself and your feelings, and try to help yourself feel better. try to resolve any problems you may have going on in your mind.
i often feel lost and like there is no hope, but know this:that there are people who understand and care for you. me included. i understand what it's like. YOU ARE NOT ALONE.
feel free to email me if you want to talk.
stay stron, stay safe.
The main thing that keeps me going is my family. I see from your profile that you are only 16. Talk to people, any adult, email me if you want. Some find life much easier than others and sometimes there is no real answer to the questions we are asking. Keep active though and surround yourself with people.
I'm sorry to hear you are having such a rough time. After over fifty years of dealing with my own depression, I can tell you one thing for certain... the only certainty in life is that things change... always. So while you may be very "low" now, that will indeed change, and there will come a time when you are feeling very much better than you do now. There are some things you can do to help yourself feel better, therapy is one, exercising is another... email me and let me know how you are doing.
I was feeling like this way months ago. However, life changes when I'm back on track to focus on my goals. I told myself I'll certainly regret it if I live my life a sucky way which I dont enjoy. Times flies too, therefore I need to hurry to get my @** off to get the job done. Plan ur goals. This is what you hear alot. But its freakng true. Without goals, you aint got a direction to work towards.
ATM, my formula for life is hardwork+ direction = my success/goals.
Watch Little Miss Sunshine. I know, stupid answer, but just get through the day man with happy movies, music, or books. Think about what you are greatful for. And get help from a professional.
go find friends that seemingly have it together, your hormones are playing a part in this too....in time like all things, this too will pass. good luck, we have all been there.
There's an old saying'a trouble shared is a trouble halved' it's as true today as ever.So talk to someone, talking openly about how you really feel can be like opening a door. Talking puts you back in control and reveals the choices you have. Many people feel pressured into hiding their feelings out of embarrassment or concern not to burden family or friends. But hiding under a calm exterior only saves the problem for later and stress can build up until it becomes unbearable.
Sometimes it's easier to talk to a total stranger than your own friends or family,someone who wont judge you,talk down to you or want anything from you.Ring this number now and halve your troubles. 08457 90 90 90
awwww that sucks!! like a year ago i was feeling the same way i felt like bleeding to death [yeh ott] but i chatted to new people and got help from a family member ! it really helped just chatting made it feel better im still a bit down sometimes but i get over it!!
you can email me if you want i like talking to people about feelings [im strange] !!
oh exersize always made me feel better dont ask how ! or buy a instrement [if you dont already play one!] buy tickets to your fav band!! i also buy new thing yeh it's stupid things cant make you happy for long but it works for a little while ! think about what you want to do and think about your family and stuff lol!!
hope you feel better!! dont end it all something AMAZING might happen tomorrow !!
I get that feeling too if i've had a bad day or just generally feeling low, i think hormones and being a teenager plays a big part in it to be honest even if it doesn't feel like it.
By the way am always here dude if you wanna talk :-)
Someone once said that suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem. And I happen to agree with that. I can be feeling awful and having the worst day of my life, but what happens when you have got to go to the bathroom, "When you gotta go, you gotta go!"
And what immediately happens to the problem? It takes a backseat to more important things like not dirtying my shorts.
See how temporary a problem can be.
Freshman year seemed really important when I was a Freshman. But when I became a Sophomore, I thought, "Wow, last year was a breeze. This year's tough!"
But I thought the same way about my Sophomore year when I became a Junior.
I guess it's all a matter of perspective. What way you are looking at it now?
And more importantly, what way could you be looking at it? That's the real question.
Everyday is a complete uphill battle for me, what stops me from ending it is the thought of how much it hurt my family, I spend a lot of days just lying in bed so I cant tell you how to occupy yourself, just to think of others, even if u do think they would be better off without you
