I don’t really know where to start. I don’t even know what to say. I just need somewhere to vent.

I’m in such a negative place right now. It has been such a long time and I just cannot find the way out. I have tried so many different things and nothing is working. I have health problems and my depression drags me down and zaps every last bit of my energy. I have lost someone I truly loved and am absolutely devastated. I just keep having bad news after bad news and I have no one to support me. I’m not great at putting my thoughts or feelings into words and usually end up being taken the wrong way.

I have a very negative self-image and very low self-worth and when people pick on this and use it against me it hurts more than I can explain. The voice in my head is constantly firing negativity at me and when anyone says anything negative about me the voice picks up on that and fires that at me too, over and over again. Meaning I find it very hard to let things go.

I am terrified of continually getting older and still getting nowhere. I have nothing to show for my life. I feel like I'm screaming at people but noone can hear me. I feel trapped, broken.

I have tried going over everything with so many different doctors and specialists but they just don’t seem to be able to help.

I just don’t see the point anymore. Well if I’m honest I haven’t seen the point in a long time but now I really, really want to fall asleep and not wake up.
 
Well you're a stronger man (woman?) than I, if I lost the one person I can say I truly love I'm pretty sure I'd off myself before it had a chance to really sink in.
Can't really say I haven't accomplished anything yet because it's a pretty meaningless statement at the age of 21 but all I do most days is hang around with my cousin and get drunk.

Try not to care what other people think, with the way I grew up I don't even have to try anymore but I get honeysuckle from people whenever I leave the house and it doesn't really bother me at all.

You don't need other people to validate your worth, they are the ones being dicks to you so they are the trash and not vice-versa. Why the hell would you care what some random ******* has to say about anything? Live for yourself, not for them.
No need to accomplish great things in life, just create a situation, step by step, in which you can be happy and make sure it stays that way, that's what I'm doing right now anyways.
 
I am sorry you're feeling like that. I want to tell you I love you, but I don't even know you so that might be weird, and everyone says that word gets thrown around too much these days anyway. I guess what I should say instead is that I'm listening. I can hear you.
 
I don't know if this helps, but I have been reading alot on this forum and some of these people have accomplished more in their partial life-time than I would ever have the motivation to do in four of mine. But look around, they are here with you, feeling so lonely they needed to reachout also. Accomplishing things is not going to make you any less lonely. Maybe I sound like a broken record on this forum but I'm going to try it myself, maybe you should try volunteering? I don't know if it works but I think its worth a shot, lets face it what else do we have to lose?

Losing your loved one is dying. When you are 80 or 90 laying there waiting for the end the only things you will have left behind are the memories of how you treated other people and all you take with you is the same. When you choose to spend your life with someone a great deal of you and your life is with them, in their memories. You live inside their mind attatched to your favorite song, an old car, the smell of vanilla. It is devastating. Whether they are alive or dead you are still alive and if they are alive their memory of you is aswell. If they are dead you carry them with you. It is sad but its something we all have, or will face, and is survivable.
 
I've not enough time to write a proper response, itsmylife. But I just wanted to give you a good hug for now. Hang in there, come on now, every time you think of giving up, usually your are closer to getting it than you think. I hope this is true really.

*HUGS*

Take care.

I suspect death will always be lonely, even if you have your loved ones on your side. It's a place you better go on alone... lol.

I feel for you, you seem to be in a tough spot. Maybe you can try, to pay more attention to the positive things in your day-to-day life. I woke up with an annoying allergy right now and I'm out of zyrtec but I don't mind.. there's birds singing outside, the sun is about to rise, looks like it's the beginning of a wonderful day.

Hugs and heads up you. :)
 
Thank you all so much for your responses. They help me more than you realise.

When I said I lost someone I truly loved, he’s not died. He’s just left. Gone away, moved on, doesn’t want to know me anymore. I think it would have been easier if he had died. That way at least I would have known he still loved me. He was all I had. All it’s done is left me devastated and given my inner voice the confirmation that I really am as worthless and unlovable as I thought.

I have tried to do the whole positive thing. This is just another issue in a whole line of others. I just don’t have the energy or the strength for it anymore.

Sorry I know there is way too much negativity and self-pity in my messages. Just life is pretty dark right now.

Thank you again for your words. I really, really appreciate them. There are some good, good people on this site.
 
*hugs* you're not alone, girl. Just remember, we're here. And you don't have to go through stuff alone.. maybe interaction with people on the forum will help some?
 
Hang in there IML, I'm sure you are NOT worthless and unlovable.

I don't know what else to say right now, I've experienced the end of a relationship, it can be hard, you are grieving. Give yourself time, and when you are ready move on, you need to think about yourself now and know that a future still waits for you.

PM me if you want to chat more.

Take care.

You had love once you can have it again. You tell that inner voice of yours to go fresia itself and die.

I know what you mean though. Although everybody hurts after a break up, some people take it a lot worse than others. Usually takes me months, even years to start getting over them, with hours of therapy and medication and all that honeysuckle that comes along with it... I know, it's not just the break up, but it triggers my depression which in turn triggers every other **** thing wrong with me. But it gets to a place where it doesn't matter anymore. You'll find it, in time. One day you will wake up and he wont be the first thing on your mind, or the last thing you think of before you sleep.

You know, a lot of people feel good when they make sad people feel slightly better. So don't be shy, and help us help you :)
 
IML, I know how you feel. Sometiems the whole 'positivity' thing feels like BS and a complete waste of time. Also,I feel as worthless as you feel sometimes. Feel free to PM me we should talk.

That's exactly, what I'm battling right now. But.. I refuse to let those feelings take over me.
 
Itsmylife, you have some extremely good qualities within you. You're a good person and although I've never heard you play, I'm sure you're a phenominal pianist too. I know things went sour between us but I don't want you to give up. I'm sure the world would be a sadder place without you.
