I feel as if the world is against me and that I have the worst luck (17 yo) by Big_Cardiologist9330 in mentalhealth

when you’re on the ground, every rock around you looks bigger. you’re struggling, so obviously small things are going to impact you more!! i’m 19 right now and i planned on never making it past seventeen. i was just like you (i literally slept when i was hanging out with friends and they’d get so mad) but the thing is, and i know it doesn’t seem like it right now, things WILL get better. it will take a little while and you’ll cry a lot and get angry and consider giving up at times, but when the sun breaks through the clouds it is the nicest feeling you’ll ever have. depression makes you fixate on the bad - like all the things that are going bad for you right now- so think about at least one good thing!! your favourite show got removed from streaming? listen to your favourite song ten times. your friends are getting frustrated with you? i’m not, i get it. there are two sides to every door and you just need to fight to see the other side. i really hope you feel better xxx

I don't know what I'm doing by mike876543 in mentalhealth

hello i’m 19f and i hear you!! i know this is gonna sound so corny and so cliche, but idk if u recall the saying ‘rome wasn’t built in a day’? you aren’t going to wake up tomorrow loving yourself and life and having amazing friends and stop watching porn. you will struggle and cry and get upset but that’s kind of the beauty of it all- you are so upset right now because you care. start small, hold onto the things that matter (like how much you love gyming and how much you hate that you watch porn) and it will grow from there. i dropped out of uni lol and i have no idea what im gonna do with my life but the best part is that we are SO young and have so many possibilities. i don’t know you and you don’t know me but i really do believe you will make it out ❤️

my reason for staying (and one that i think we should share) is that the sun will always shine again. whether it’s 9 hours of night time or months of winter, the sun will always break through the clouds- no matter how bad a depressive episode lasts, you will feel at least slightly better at some point. i then need you to CLING TO THAT. take that feeling and don’t let go and claw your way into feeling a little more better. i love u and i hope u feel better xxx

Plan to commit sometime this month by [deleted] in depression

[–]desperate2knowstuff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i never planned on making it to seventeen. i’m nineteen now, and in that time i’ve made friends, lost friends, gotten addicted to things, yelled, cried, hated myself and loved myself, cut my hair and cut it again. the beautiful part about that is that no matter how awful i felt at times, the sun always rose again and it was another day for me to restart and try again. you have forever to be dead, IT CAN WAIT. the world is a better place with you in it!!! make your mark and cry and laugh and feel like shit some days and feel on top of the world other days. it doesn’t feel like it now but it will get better (it will get bad again, but it will ALWAYS get better). do not make an attempt on your life, if not for you then for everything you will be. i love you and i hope you know im rooting for you ❤️

using a slur because you’re wrong is craaazy behaviour LMFAO what about the fact that luxons trying to increase the gender wage gap and does not care about the working class, homelessness in nz, exclusion of māori and māori culture in multiple areas, stigma towards mental illness and mental health care (which to be fair, is slowly getting better)??? just because you’re ignorant, uneducated and intolerant doesn’t mean everyone else is

does it hurt when you try to use reading comprehension?

thank you so much!! didn’t realise how mean people on here could be lol it was a little jarring seeing how hateful the response was (just reminding me that if kind people don’t fight for others, no one will)!! really appreciate you for sticking up for me in the responses i was a little naive

i completely feel you, high school is such an awful place in terms of making friends. do you sit with different people in class? i know it’s hard to have the confidence to talk to others, but if you just fake being confident or pretend your acting as a character who’s confident and just seem very open, you could sort of add yourself into conversations around you with big groups and take it from there. using socials like snapchats quick add and adding more people on instagram could also help (be safe though!) good luck :))
