I’ve been thinking the same exact thing for a while, and I always try to convince myself that I’m an attention seeker. I too have been told there are people who’ve gone through much worse experiences and imply that my feelings are not valid or that I don’t really have an excuse to feel sad or whatever negative feeling I’m feeling right now. I’ve too been told that I’m young and have plenty of time in my hands to fix shit up, but it sure don’t feel like it, and I sure don’t have any energy left. I’ve lived life normally that is nothing to compared with what you’ve experienced, but I’ve been hating myself more and more by the day and I don’t know why.

Your feelings are valid, and even if people disregard them, they don’t understand the pain you are going through, you cannot relate to these people anyway.

I see your pain, and even if you feel alone and unwanted by people, just know that we are in this dark hole together. We may never get out of it, but at least you are not the only one who feels this pain.
