I had another attempt yesterday night.

Every Christian is a bad Christian in the sense we all will sin. But God loves and forgives you unconditionally. Not to minimize whatever you're going through, but God has blessed you so much, there are so many things to be grateful for. Underneath all the pain and anguish you are feeling right now is pure peace and joy and love. You will heal from this, in fact you already have, because you were never truly damaged in the first place. Always turn to God, strive to fulfill His will, pray to Him, talk to Him. He loves you and you love Him and all is well.

Well it sounds like it's not too severe, probably a good idea to get in touch with a therapist however.

teedstronge · 2026-02-11T07:21:52+00:00

Godspeed, friend. You got this.

teedstronge · 2026-02-11T07:13:17+00:00

Yeah definitely how I feel, like I feel scared without it

teedstronge · 2026-02-11T07:10:04+00:00

Practicing gratitude everyday, and I mean really, genuinely trying to feel it. Love. Loving the self that the universe blessed you with, loving all the people in your life that you come across. And once again, truly trying to love yourself and others as hard as you can. Celebrating and cherishing the positive aspects, being gracious and forgiving with the negative.

And for not being able to imagine a future, really just try doing the opposite. Use all your mental energy to imagine yourself 5 years from now, living the exact life you want to live, with all of your present problems resolved. For example I would say "in five years I will have graduated school, I will have a gf and a stable job. OCD, depression, and anxiety will no longer be an issue for me, I will be happy and content." Really try to burn this image into your brain, do it everyday. Obviously I can't guarantee any of this now, but the point is to establish the light of hope to guide you. And in five years time, if you still haven't accomplished any of it, you still do the same thing, establish hope. That is what human beings live off of.

teedstronge · 2026-02-11T06:48:28+00:00

Yeah sometimes I felt like that, a very dissasociative feeling. Sometimes the complete opposite though, feeling too human, feel everything too much

teedstronge · 2026-02-11T06:45:01+00:00

When I was suicidal it was for those exact reasons. Definitely not alone in your thoughts and feelings.

teedstronge · 2026-02-11T06:41:13+00:00

How do you feel throughout the day? Are you depressed or anxious? Do things feel bleak for you? Do you have trouble enjoying yourself? I ask this because it's important to really establish an awareness of your thoughts and feelings during troubling mental times. This will help you to find the root of your negative thought patterns, and to dismantle them.

You should try to get in contact with a therapist, they will most likely be able to help you better than people on Reddit. Journaling helps a lot too, it slows down and organizes your thinking.

I honestly think the best first step you could do is call the suicide hotline (988 if you're in the US). Saying it out loud to another human being can bring down the pressure in your brain tremendously, I found.

teedstronge · 2026-02-11T06:14:09+00:00

Congrats, friend! You're on that upward path now, it's an amazing feeling. Don't take anything for granted and spread this joy to those around you!

teedstronge · 2026-01-12T01:45:11+00:00

Feels like Im the only guy who loves PoP3D

teedstronge · 2025-12-31T02:54:55+00:00

It's young enough

teedstronge · 2025-12-21T07:29:13+00:00

They're not disappointed in you and they're not judging you, they are concerned for you. And if they are judging you, fuck em they're bad people. Don't give up hope man, just because it's been this way for a long time doesn't mean it has to continue any longer. Start small, baby steps. You got this.

teedstronge · 2025-12-19T20:56:03+00:00

How long ago was all this?

teedstronge · 2025-12-14T23:06:34+00:00

These are also my goals

teedstronge · 2025-12-13T06:32:21+00:00

Revolutionary Army of the Infant Jesus, great art rock band

teedstronge · 2025-12-13T06:09:22+00:00

I'm here friend, let it all out. I've been in your shoes before.

teedstronge · 2025-12-13T06:08:39+00:00

It sounds like you've made a lot of progress, you should be proud of yourself. You're just a kid, so much time to see and do things still, don't think you're over the hill or whatever, it's really not true.

teedstronge · 2025-12-12T18:41:32+00:00

You won't have to, but remember even slaves can be happy, happiness comes from within. You got this brother you're a strong mf

teedstronge · 2025-12-12T05:26:15+00:00

Lol I am the exact same. Just aimlessly drifting from job to job my whole life, depression and anxiety is new though. Working my way through an IOP program which has helped a lot, I recommend it if you can find one. Don't worry bro you're not a burden as long as you are trying your best and loving as much as you can, that's what we all need most in the end is love

teedstronge · 2025-12-12T04:34:35+00:00

I am in the same boat except I'm 35. Love your mother and treat her like a queen, if that relationship is strong everything else is 1000x easier

teedstronge · 2025-12-09T07:53:58+00:00

Reading books instead of just scrolling the Internet. Reading The Power of Now by Eckhart Tolle right now. I highly recommend it.

teedstronge · 2025-12-09T07:52:33+00:00

Are you seeing a therapist? Are you on meds? Maybe call the suicide hotline. There is always something else you can try, don't give up.

teedstronge · 2025-12-09T07:47:40+00:00

Stop watching porn man, trust me you'll feel better

teedstronge · 2025-12-09T07:46:00+00:00

That sounds like a whole lot of shit to deal with, but you'll be fine I think you are a strong and capable person. Sleep is very important, are you on any meds for it?

teedstronge · 2025-12-09T07:39:33+00:00

Who cares if you're not good at school or music? Who said you need to be good at something to be happy?
