Need to die

I wake up every morning really wanting to Kill myself and go to bed every night wondering why I didn’t. Just need to put myself out of my misery 😓😓
“And when they look at you, they won't see everything you've been through. They won't see the **** that turned to scars that began to fade with time. They won't see the heartbreaking things that shook up and changed your entire world. They won't know how many tears you cried or even what it was you were crying about. They won't see how strong you had to be because you had no other choice. What they will see though is how compassionate you are because you experienced pain. What they will see is how kind you are because you experienced how cruel the world is. What they will see is how good you are because you've seen how bad things or people can be. The difference between you and your experiences are who you choose to be, despite everything that could have turned you cold and unkind.You are the good the world needs and the best of us.” ~ Kirsten Corley

    Hey Shaunie, just here to send you some more hugs. You might not be able to see it yourself right now but you’re an amazing person and you deserve to be in this world.

    I’m the same at the moment , but I have kids so it’s not really an option , but I’m in serious torment , there’s always someone out there worse off bud , go look at kids with cancer on YouTube and you will probably cry , then you have to work something out , join a gum , give up any drink or drugs ..

    help your mum or dad out , get a hobby , I know it’s hard , at first just tryi long walks

    Can totally appreciate the well-intentioned place this comes from @John144. :) That said, it might be more constructive for @Shaunie to focus more on how real this feels for her and how these feelings are valid, regardless of any possible comparisons we could make. Comparing ourselves to others - while sometimes useful for perspective - can also be quite destructive for mental health.

    It sounds like things are feeling pretty dark right now @Shaunie, and I just want to say that, although we might not always be able to help you out of it, you'll never be in that dark place alone. :star:    

    You're capable of getting through this. I know it might not feel like it, but you really are. You've broken down a lot barriers in your personal life while you've been in this community, and it is possible for that to continue. You're still that person, with the same determination, kindness and courage.
    The truth resists simplicity.
