Whether you're ugly or not has no bearings. It can't be helped! Worry for your physical fitness, and not your appearance.

At least she didn't tear off your skin, and wear it on her face. :)
You shouldn't care so much about being embarrassed. While it is very cute, it doesn't hurt to feel shameless about something so innocuous as dancing to good music.

Guys, I think I'll just stay alone.
I know I just graduated from school and I have all my life ahead of me but..wow.
I never really tried, like, finding a boyfriend, due to my insecurity about my height.(5'9)
Every guy I start talking with it's just meaningless. All they care about is sex and how many girls they'll fuck, so they can show off..Nobody is really romantic and my circle of friends is just surrounded by fuckboys and stacies, so theres really no chance of meeting a decent one. Listening to romantic songs and watching all these innocent romance anime made me realize that I'll never experience anything like that. It just physically hurts me. How do I cope with this?

I feel so dumb, everything recently has been affecting me so much and i don't even know for what reason, every minor thing makes me want to curl up into a ball and just cry.
I got used to basically feeling nothing thanks to my depression, i don't know if this means i'm getting better, but it still feels like hell going from feeling nothing to feeling things all of a sudden.
I feel like i'm letting my emotions take the best of me and i'm just ruining everything around me like i always do.

diary.jpg

I've realized as someone in my mid 20s that I've officially lost a lot of my childhood and teenage memories.
Even if I can recall some of them I don't remember the details as vividly and I'm more than likely misremembering a lot of it.
I remember as a preteen thinking how my 39 something year old mother couldn't remember things about her prom or childhood…and I'm starting to know what she meant.

Also a part of me is really salty I never kept a diary that might've helped me remember things now. Mom broke my trust as a child about keeping one. She shamed me for what I wrote in one once, and read it out loud as she held me back. After she was through I remember tearing out each individual page and flushing it down the toilet. She was a teacher too, she should've known how damaging that was..

I haven't kept a diary since, and whenever I did/do feel like writing down personal thoughts on paper I always write as if someone were to read it…just in case. I'm still this way as an adult which is why I don't keep one, I don't even feel okay knowing people would read it after I'm dead and buried tbh. The shame is too real.

Anonymous 8388

>>8386
That's horrible, anon. Never being allowed to write down your own thoughts, having no peace of mind. It's absolutely cruel. You should start writing now, while you still can. Everything you can still remember is still worth keeping close, anon. Don't fear what cannot reach you anymore.

You are so kind, anon, I don't know how to explain myself exactly without giving too much away, but, i just feel like i'm not allowed to be happy and every single time i achieve anything nice i manage to fuck it up one way or another, i feel like my emotions are self-sabotaging me because deep down i believe i don't deserve nice things, i feel like a constant failure.
I got so used to the numbness that this whole thing just feels overwhelming.
I'm really hoping it'll pass.

Anonymous 8395

You have to make yourself pass it. Not wait for it to pass. You need to lift yourself up. Don't worry about "too much" details when you're venting here. Just don't state anything obvious, like names, locations, etc.

Anonymous 8396

>>8386
I'm so sorry anon. You didn't deserve to go through that as a child, it was cruel that your mother did that. I agree with >>8388 that it's never too late to start writing a diary. Perhaps try different writing styles, as if writing a letter to yourself, or first person, or an online journal. I sometimes open up a word document and type everything that's on my mind and then not save it, or disguise it as something with a pretty boring title. I hope you figure out a way to express yourself through writing.

This is fucked up, but yesterday a guy on the street was calling me sexy and that I had nice legs. It actually made me feel good because my fiance never compliments me and I feel horribly ugly around him with some things he says. Plus, I never get cat called or anything. Around here I usually get told "Fuck you bitch, keep walking."

I'm ugly but at least I have a decent body I guess. I keep asking my fiance why he's getting married to someone he's not physically attracted to and he gave me the whole "you're beautiful on the inside" thing.

Why are you marrying someone who is not physically attracted to you? He is going to cheat down the road.

He might like the almost absolute control he wields in the relationship. Seems pretty narcissistic.

Anonymous 8424

>>8386
As someone who had a mother like this, was always terrified of keeping a diary in case someone else read it, and now keeps a diary I write in regularly (at worst, once a month, at best, multiple times a day): really work on trying not to write about how you feel insecure about your writing because that ate up so many pages of my diary because I always felt like I had to justify how stupid my diary would "read" to strangers. Once I stopped myself from writing that and just focusing on what happened to me, my thoughts, my feelings, I felt much better about my diary because even if I still felt like my thoughts were stupid, at least they weren't muddled with so much fat from me worrying about how stupid my writing must make me seem (in addition to the stupidity that's already inside me).

Now I feel dumb mentioning this because I know that was stupid of me to do, even then, but it was such a strong compulsion of mine. I hate being so insecure and idiotic.

The bottom line: don't care about your insecurity, care about the future you who will be glad to have a record of yourself years ago. Hopefully, future you will be more understanding, confident, and kind to whoever they are, so they won't beat themselves up for writing cringy shit from the past. Even if you want to commit suicide or something, it's easy to throughly burn a diary beforehand.

Yes, because he at least hasn't cheated on me yet, or if he has he's incredibly sneaky about it. The last guy I dated cheated on me from day one.

I'm 28 and want to have kids one day, so this is what I have to settle for I guess, as an ugly girl.

What the hell, there is so much wrong with this way of thinking. Don't do that to yourself and your future child. How can you love a child if you don't love yourself? You not equipped to bring a new life into this world, your horrible self-esteem issues will rub off on it no matter how much you try to hide them. And Jesus Christ, before having a child, at least find someone who truly loves you. It's a fucking huge mistake even attempt to spend the rest of your life with someone you're not in love with. The child will know.

Okay I can relate almost. I'd really like to share what a fool I made of myself recently, and if I could undo it I would but there's nothing to do but shrug about it.

>sitting at bus stop, alone like usual

>feeling hyper and a song has been stuck in my head all day
>it's 'boss' by lil pump
>start actually saying it out loud
>start not knowing the already super simple lyrics and replace every single line with "suck my dick and balls"
>start actually dancing to this somehow
>another girl walks up
>has a facial expression of "wat" mixed with this half grin while biting her lip
>I got super embarrassed and then said outloud "oh well"

I stopped caring in like 15 seconds though. Maybe in some years you can not feel as embarrassed about things? It wasn't until recently I stopped remembering embarrassing things and cringing at myself in agony. It wasn't a conscious choice or anything it just suddenly happened.

Everybody does weird stuff when they're alone. And that lady saw everything and then read your expression and understood perfectly. Especially if she's fully grown she isn't going to care. It's okay to cry but what you did is totally normal behavior and the witnesses ought to know that.

It's good to feel shame, anon. You shouldn't just try to ignore your mind's own calls for improvement. It could lead to moments like that becoming more and more prominent, until people start giving you the shame you refuse to feel. That's something you should never face.

Anonymous 8462

I get what you're saying, and agree for many things, but there's simply no shame in dancing like a dork by yourself and maybe accidentally getting caught. There's nothing to improve on there. There's no need to think back to the time the movie theater employee goes "enjoy the movie" "y-you too", or saying good morning to a lady in the afternoon. Awkward =/= shameful

I complained about it in the previous thread. I live with my sister and her family and feel like a burden despite making my own money, but it isn't enough to support myself on my own. I am so tired and I just don't neck myself because I am too much of a pussy to try it again. No one complains about it, but I feel bad and like a huge burden for some reason. I've always been depressed, but not like this. I did attempt to hang myself when I was younger and got to pass out briefly, but my hands were loose, so I chickened out in time to save myself. I always wake up wishing I would have let myself die. Everything is shit. I don't know why my mood is so bad now. This is really a big change from last year when I was in a much better place mentally wise even though things were shitty, too. I went to a nearby lake this morning and thought about my life and how I used to picture how it'd be like when I was younger. I've only ever dreamed of being a mom, having a simple life, my own little cozy place and other simple things. But I can't have any of those things, they were denied. I can't find anyone and now even my finances are fucked. I've tried to change my personality, but it doesn't work.
A while ago I watched a video about a guy who posted an ad that said "cannibal looking for a suicidal person. I will treat you with respect and kill you painlessly. I will not hurt you. We can have dinner and you will be granted your wish". How fucked up am I to think that this would be a great deal? I don't want to be eaten, that is gruesome, but since I can't kill myself I wish someone else would, if painlessly. Learning that I got to a point where I'm okay with being eaten if granted the sweet relief of death just made me feel worse about myself. I don't know what the fuck is wrong with me. I look in the mirror and I see a pretty, friendly, nice girl who has everything to succeed, but things never do. Whether the fault is entirely mine or circumstantial, I don't know, but it is too late to fix this shit. I've been trying to get out of the house more often when I'm not at work or running errands, but it is not enough.
I was asked on a date yesterday, but I don't know if I want to go out with this person. Things would have different if he'd have asked me out a year ago, but he ditched me for someone else, and I can't accept being second place and only getting attention when he is out of options. I always complain about loneliness, but when someone finally tries to reach out to me and asks me on a date, I feel this way? That I don't want to go? What the hell.
It is just really frustrating. Always shotting myself in the foot.
Almost every night I cry myself to sleep. I don't even know why I cry so much, but it is worse at nighttime. I feel so touch starved. I have some emotional support from friends, but what I really need is someone who would put their hand on my shoulder and say "hey, it will be okay, i am here and i am not going anywhere" and give me a hug and not let me go even if I start crying in despair. At the same time I don't want people to pity me, so after opening up I feel terrible. I don't want pity, I don't want people to give me attention just because they are sorry for me. I want love and to be loved. I want to be able to support myself without feeling like I am using my family, and feeling pathetic and like a leech.
I'm always finding ways to slowly destroy myself, but they're never aggresive enough. I don't even realize they are self destructive behaviors before it is too late. I hardly ever eat because of the depression and I feel dizzy every day. I don't even know if it has to do with my eating habits because even when I do eat, I feel like I'm about to pass out. Sometimes I go outside alone late at night and hope something bad will happen to me. Sorry for the edge, but the solution to my problem is a lobotomy.
I am way too tired of everything to try to improve my situation unless if pushed, and even when pushed, I shoot myself in the foot like with my date. I am going to press "post reply" and feel bad for crying here, but I've typed a long post so I should post it.

tl;dr broke, feeling alone. can't leave my sister's house, feel guilt over this. feel bad after venting because i feel like people only give attention to me because they pity me.

Anonymous 8578

>>8575
everything is going to be alright anon, all you can do is your best, you don't need to feel that guilt. those other things you want can come with time and some effort, and they will most definitely come. for now you should really try to love yourself as best as you can. you seem like a good person so please take care of yourself and eat. talk to someone when you really need to, and antidepressants or therapy could always be an option as well.

Anonymous 8580

You can find someone, anon. There's somebody who wants to have a family with you, to provide for you, and to love you. This guy you speak of is definitely wanting you on the rebound. I don't think your doubts of his character are too far. Please consider taking your life to church if it is so bad that you feel like taking your life. Orthodoxy would be the strongest option. Church events and charity could serve to help you, and you might even meet someone who wants to spend their life with you. Don't end your life, anon.

Thank you, anons. I hope so, too. I have no idea what is going to happen. I had good news today (related to a new job), but I don't want to get too excited just yet.
I wish you were right about me ever finding someoene. Sometimes I wish I'd just accept the fact I will be alone. I'm not religious, so I don't know if finding someone in the Church would be good, especially for them. I also have a hard time meeting new people. Maybe when I feel better.
I've been through therapy and I've tried meds, but I don't think I can afford those things right now, and getting help where I am might be harder without money.
Thank you reading my vent post, I appreciate it.

The meds are not going to help you. You're only going to become reliant on them, which will only leave you worse off when they are unavailable. Religion would seriously be the better choice to make with coping. You don't have to be alone.

I'm not even talking about myself because I have a roof over my head and my problems are ridiculous compared to other people's troubles.

Because there is an evil to this world that could only be wiped away with us all, and he doesn't want that. You have to believe, bear the pain, and live. You have said before that someone should help you through this, and live the life you've wanted before. You need to help yourself, before you can help others, anon.

Sometimes things that positive changes can still come with mixed feelings, especially for changes in life stages. For university, getting in is a huge moment, but it's also the commitment to work and study for the next few years too.

I've been on the brink of bawling all day and I can't even start to put everything into words because I know the floodgates will open and I just can't afford to let myself go right now, I'm already at rock bottom and if I lose the last bit of control I'm holding on to, all is lost. I'm at a very precarious stage of my life and if I continue to fuck up, I might as well die.

But here I am, grieving the death of an ex, grieving the youth I lost, the life I fucked up, the person I could've been and wondering why I even still try when I can't see any single way for my life to still turn around.

Every time I find an online community for weebs and loners I still feel like an outsider. Even the users who are neets and on the autism spectrum seem to handle socializing better than me. It makes me feel so bad and even worse than being without any kind of communication. I'm also bothered by the fact that all the new friends made from those communities already have hundred other people on their friend lists. How could I possibly be anything else but a random name on that list? I have 7 online friends on my discord, 3 on my steam, but none of them feel like actual friends and they never respond to my private messages.

The people in these communities have always been nice to me, they're nice towards anyone. What I wish is more intimacy and personal contact. Direct messaging with people I find interesting would be ideal way to get to know them better and become actual friends. When talking with them in a general chat room it's not as personal and thus less meaningful. I think they find it meaningful even if it's told in a large busy chat, but the truth is the relationship between us can never develop into anything more than casual chatting.

There was a story of a boy named Chris who discovered his father in fact had a second family he hid from his "main" family that he only saw on business trips, and he bounced back and forth and lived a double life somehow.

Finding out about this news got to him so much that he dropped everything in life and went minimalist mode and backpacked across north America to eventually die in Alaska.

That must be overwhelming.

But what I will tell you from personal experience is that you can be your own person and have pride and dignity even if every member of your family does terrible things that make you feel ashamed. It doesn't have to reflect on you even if it's shitty.

People can take divorce hard but that sounds more rough, I'm sorry.

Then I seem to not get on with work colleagues, classmates, it feels like in public people are more rude, bumping into me, uncomfortable situations, new people who i'm introduced to are shit.

OK so FUCK my (and definitely her) liiiife. I've got my best (only) friend here and her relationship with her bf is so shit man, so shit it stresses me out. He's got her wrapped around his little finger and I've tried to talk sense into her but she just won't have it. He starts up arguments out of nowhere, seems to be able to ignore her fine when she's in distress but she hangs on his every word. He makes accusations that's clearly projecting, and literally called me a bitch and said i'd pay because he found out she was telling me about their arguments. He's forbidden her to talk to certain people (and she obliged!) and most recently walked out after getting mad about a specific thing that he didn't oblige to tell her and is doing this vague shit where he's acting like they might break up. And I KNOW he's doing it for the thrill of being able to upset her, because I've seen and experienced similar before.
But when I'm trying to tell her this she's all like oh he's just sad/emotional/going through a hard time but like no good person would treat someone else like that no matter their condition! And I get that if I go on the attack she'd go on the defense but she blames herself for everything somehow. It's disgusting.

With all this he's also unattractive, unfunny (pol tier humour), shit in bed and fuckng boring to boot. His two best friends are full on alt right and she won't make the link. I honestly don't understand it but I think it's down to emotional manipulation.

I often lip sync to songs or put some pizzaz in my walking if it's an energetic tune, it's happened to me a few times and I know the feeling. Worst that'll happen though is they'll mention it to a friend, but in the end who cares?

Anonymous 10221

The husband likes to imply he is in charge of everything and needs to remind me of everything, when in fact the opposite is the case, I take care of literally everything and every once in a while he gets hit by sudden thoughts, decides I boss me around and gets all riled up if I get angry after having to tell him that everything is under control and I take care of it multiple times.

I don't know what the fucking problem of men is. How they are so fundamentally unable to perceive the reality of situations and then with such confidence assert that they're the only one who know anything.

So often, I have said "If I'm so bad, I'll leave, I'll do my thing and you do yours,let's see who has things under control" only to then get accused of starting fights.

I guess history wanted us submissive because everyone knew men are good for nothing and women are both more capable of organization AND of carrying the burden of emotion, and society functions best if men are just kept busy with simple linear tasks and given the impression they are important.

I'm just not over the fact that we are actually supposed to treat them like little kids.

she treats the highs like he's the best bf in the world when tbh that's like the majority of a normal relationship (hanging out, sex, being nice to each other), and those times are when the bf decides. Like I've seen him (seen the screenshots of a convo) and he'll literally bring something up from the past out of nowhere and spin it into this huge argument while she's trying to defuse it. She can't end an argument, only he can because if she goes quiet he'll start up with another accusation.

Also he's doing it RIGHT NOW. Fuck my life this is going to go on till late i bet and I need to be up for work tomorrow morning. Why is this such an emotional drain when it's not even my god damn relationship?!
But she's such a good person it would suck to not be there for her, because it feels like not many people are.

I went to the hair salon to get my hair looking cute to surprise my boyfriend and they cut it too short. I'm still not used to how it looks and I feel so ugly. When he saw me and I asked him what'd he think about it he said 'It's not… so bad. I like you anyway'. I feel so dumb for being sad about my hair but it really impacted me. I miss my long wavy hair so much.

Because it's like this shit bf, he does these things to make my friend feel bad/guilty, then when she defends him saying that he fucking…got her a gift or some shit, like that doesn't negate the fact he's trying to hurt another person, a person who's vulnerable and close to him, you know?

I have legit autism and speech impediment, developed social anxiety later on in life
This year I was very, very lucky by having my dad help me to get a job, but I was fired in 6 months due to having panic attacks then going home early.

I recently got ECT to treat my depression, I'm more happier and am able to do things. I still get these depression episodes once a week or so.
What bothers me/scares me the most is that ignoring all the bad shit is the only solution for me. I tried that in the past during middle and high school but it backfired onto me terribly when I went to college for 1 year and I stopped going to class, outside, and became a hikki.

I mean mine has good intentions, I would normally not care about things that make me objectively inferior, but he points them out because he wants me to work on them, and when I get defensive, things get ugly.

Of course that looks manipulative af from the outside, but I know his intentions are the best.

I also know he just isn't capable to treating people will think respect due to the way he grew up.

And we have a really similar way to see the world, agree on a lot of issues, that would be difficult to agree upon elsewhere. He also is extremely intelligent and capable, and the good things don't boil down to "got a gift".

Also, I'm sure that if he were to vent,he would rightfully describe how terrible I am. His scope about what's acceptable might be skewed, but so is mine in terms of reaction.

Also: Everyone will exhibit behavior enough to define him as trash at some point. Everyone is trash in some way.

I have BPD and it's difficult for me because the person I'm in a "relationship" with says they love me no matter what I accomplish and that makes me feel absolutely worthless. I want to feel respected, not unconditionally loved. I don't think I deserve respect, though, so I understand why they don't, but I wish someone would think I'm worthy of respect.

alright friends, so–
this is going to sound like a soap opera but it's happening irl and i don't know what to do

a few days ago, a good friend of mine got in contact with me. we've known each other for several years, and we'd usually call one another about every other month or so to vent or just to chat. When we first met, there was a chance of us having a relationship (i hit on him during a vacation trip and we struck it off like a match to a flame), but it petered out because I didn't want an LDR. Despite that, we've been pretty close for the past 4 years and we'll call one another whenever we need a boost or to be talked out of a bad spot. He called me because pretty soon, he's supposed to be marrying his fiancee of two years and tbh it sounds like he wants someone to talk him out of it now.
his fiancee hates me because she apparently went into his facebook and e-mail accounts and found 'flirtatious' (friendly/humorous) emails and messages dating back from before he knew her. plus at one point i sent him a book of short stories that she got angry about because she said she'd never been able to make him as happy as when he was reading it. I really wish that I could make amends with her because I honestly never wanted to come between them; when he told me he was getting engaged, I was really excited for him and wished them the best. but more and more i've started to think that maybe this woman isn't a good match for him. besides going into his private social media/email accounts and searching them for evidence that he was cheating on her with me (there was none), she's also maxed out his credit cards without his permission to buy things for her own private business. she's from a society family and the wedding that they have is going to be MASSIVE (800 people on the invitations + guests) despite the fact that he's incredibly uncomfortable with this. he wants a much smaller event, and to use their budget on a nice honeymoon instead, but they're going to be wasting all their money on impressing her family's friends instead.
The problem is that even though I don't think she's a good match, I think he does love her, but they have nothing in common. Their wedding is about two months away and whenever we've talked recently, I get this feeling (also strongly worded hints) like he wants me to jump in and be like 'I love you! Don't marry her! Run away with me!'
But if I did something like that, it would mean him cutting ties with almost everyone he knows in the city where he lives, losing his job and all his contacts, and being badmouthed for years in the social circles he's used to running in, and I don't want that to happen to him. Even if I did actually elope with him or something like that, it would mean abandoning my family.
It's been so long since we've seen each other in person that I couldn't tell you whether my feelings for him are worth pursuing. I do consider him a dear friend, but I think he's put me on some kind of pedestal in his mind, and I don't think I can live up to the standards he's set for me.
It would be so easy to just run away with him and that's what's tempting. My life right now is pretty much shit and I really just want to get out. I don't know. I'm so torn on just saying 'fuck it', jumping ship even though it would be a horrible thing to do to this other woman, and–on the other hand–telling him, 'no, settle down with this person who treats you badly and you're fighting with constantly, just do the husband thing because it's what's convenient and not going to ruin you.' Despite how much of an ass people will probably say that this guy is, I don't want him to end up alone and with nothing. I still think of him as one of my best friends, if not my best friend, even after he's put me in such a weird position.

Have you tried socialising? Meeting other people you like can give you some positive reinforcement to study. Other than that, you do absorb information better when you've just exercised. You should probably take up fitness, if you haven't, and put your studying after it.

That's how I used to treat my boyfriend too, and it was toxic. Kept wanting to change certain things about him under the guise of "self-improvement." You can gently nudge someone in the right direction, but continually pointing out things that are wrong, undesirable, with them will only make them defensive and break down their self-esteem. Then I chilled the fuck out and realized he's the last person I should be criticizing like that. Everyone else is always judging, criticizing, blaming, giving you shit for not being the person they want you to be. It sounds gay, but loving someone is about understanding and acceptance. As your partner they should be trying to lift you up, not break you down.

Yeah, I know. :( The thing is just, if I wanted to make him do that, I would be guilty of he same thing. (Yes, I asked nicely). I know he will at some point realize, and I unironically pray it will be sooner rather than later.

It's really bad at times, and I'm thoroughly destroyed every time he starts doing that again, but I'm using it as an opportunity to build resistance and act gracefully even in face of stress. And of course I wait for perfect moments to verbally snipe him down. It's of no use, but it drives home the point.

>husband venting

With his gay ass friends from across the continent he almost never meets, he takes great care to never offend them and always maintain a nice atmosphere even when they mock him, but I'm not with it because "he doesn't want to put up a facade when at home".

I tried leaving him, taking all the kids across the border to my in-laws, but they snitched at me :| It changed things to the better, though.

My own parents live across the street but they're worthless. My dad is probably a pedo and possibly amongst a pedo ring. My mother is manipulative, emotionally void and controlling. Lately I saw her on the street and without even talking to her, it stressed me so much that I ripped off two of my fingernails that I managed to have maintained for weeks.

My husband is a Chad and a Casanova. Lately I found out he had been exchanging crappy erotic poems with some random slut who thought she was so intellectual int he same city that he only met once, a few years ago, and then proceeded to meet up with her again, thinking I won't find out, in the stupidest of ways. Also, when I found ONE FRIEND in the community I'm in, he proceeded to flirt with her so much that she got infatuated, stopped talking with me completely, and only hung with him until her stupid husband noticed,btold the priest and made a huge ruckus. (That slut managed to portray herself as the victim.)

My first summer in austria and same, it's going to be 34 celcius this week.
what i've done:
-cover my windows in tinfoil
-not go out between 9am-5pm unless necessary and I take public transport, it often means long workdays though
-buy several ice packs, when I get home put one on the soles of my feet and on the back of my neck (also take one to work)
-when travelling wherever I put an ice pack in the back section of my bag so it lays against my spine, that's a particularly good one
-lots and lots of water
What hasn't really worked for me are cold showers (get hot within 5 minutes) and putting my clothes in the freezer.
Coming from Scotland i'm genuinely not equipped for this heat, but i'm trying to learn as quickly as I can. Anyone else got tips?

I feel like my sister is an actual sociopath. She would probably get furious denying it if I told her that there's a possibility for that. I wish I could say otherwise, I really love her, I have been with her my whole life and this is seriously breaking my heart. I wish it would just be her going through a phase like this. But, she has for her whole life had the same anger towards people, thinking she has to show her superiority and that she lives for that, only that.

She's 17 years of age and I'm one and a half year younger. When we were in kindergarden, she had a huge fascination with torturing ants, something I never really understood despite being a curious little kid just like her. She was also the total ruler of all the other kids because she was just so charismatic. She still has that same ability to get others to like her. She's extraordinarily confident that she's the best and will therefore not be let down by other people. She's basically the cool kid in others eyes. Every comic and drawing she used to make as a kid was just something glorifying her.

When having arguments with her, she will act all smug as if the other person would have lost already, and if the person isn't giving up, her smugness will get to a whole other level. A level of absolutely crushing the opposing person verbally with cruel and degrading inslults, that most often hit way too close to home. She doesn't feel guilt for her actions. I have ended up crying on some occasions and she has actually seemed happy about it.

When someone is actually having a mental breakdown, she just can't comfort them, she just gets pissed off. Everything like that does nothing but makes her uncomfortable. The only few times I've ever seen her cry have been for herself, when she has been discriminated against too much.

We haven't always been on such bad terms. We have the same sense of humor and have a fun time together. We share eachother funny stuff we find online on a daily basis. She's the only one I can do this with, I don't have any friends besides my siblings thanks to social retardedness. The thought of her being a sociopath has never crossed my mind before, and I wish I could deny it no matter what. She has never wanted to insult me unless we have been on bad terms, because she feels emphaty for others when they're innocent, I'd say. She has obiviously mourned for people close to us who have passed away, and she has tried to show that she's there for others when they're going through a hard time. Despite trying to somehow show that she cares, she has never really wanted to. I have borderline personality disorder, which has hit me god awfully lately. I get the urge to isolate myself from everyone, I'm tired and I explode with anger when someone annoys me even the tiniest bit. My sister doesn't understand this, she just thinks im lazy and too socially retarded and self-centered to be social. So she's pretty angry with me right now, because of my seemingly spiteful actions. She takes every opportunity to tell me how annoying and pathetic I am, and she isn't wrong with anything she says. But I just wish she wouldn't be so goddamn honest for a second, I wish she wouldn't enjoy showing her made up superiority so much by torturing me.

Anyways, I'm the person she will vent about her personal things a lot actually. I mean, she knows I obiviously won't call her out or something lol. And I have ended up receiving quite the knowledge of her usual relationships (almost all of these have been online). She is always the one who breaks up, be it a friendship or a romantic relationship. Usually because the person might be a bit socially akward or just gross or pathetic in her opinion. What she REALLY loves to do is watch them fall into deeper and deeper despair as they're missing her. It makes her feel like she is worshipped, and she genuinely thinks that's excactly the treatment she deserves… and the other person deserves hell because of what? Not excactly knowing how to act the way you want them to? She has actually stated "hating on others gives me happiness".(Underage )

I finally believe it's 100% true and I'm actually going to accept the fact that I can't into friendship. I don't have what it takes, either in giving or in being able to have reasonable regulation of how I feel. A person who had their legs irreversibly damaged in an accident and is wheelchair bound can never run, and I have been irreversibly damaged and cannot have normal human relationships. I came to this conclusion months ago but a coworker gave me some glimmer of hope, and said the most clingy weird combination of words that made my defenses come down too quickly.

I broke down and talked to a crisis hotline recently and the lady told me my feelings of devastation are valid from what is happening to me socially. And a thought crossed my mind today on the bus ride home from work: A person can simultaneously owe me nothing and be within their rights to not treat me as I wanted to be treated, while I can be valid and not a bad person in feeling hurt by their actions or inaction. Just because she's not actually doing anything wrong it's okay that I'm this upset. I'm working up the courage, but I think Saturday I'm going to go give her the money for the present she bought me and then politely request that we have nothing to do with each other unless a task at work demands she communicates with me.

Depending on how this weekend goes I'm hanging myself on Monday when my roommate is gone. I have nobody to even miss me. I cried in the bathroom so much yesterday at work. I'm so tired of my entire life being like this.

Funny Cats With Gu…

Long crazy rant/vent post incoming:

I feel most of my negative feelings come in cycles. First, hopelessness, even when nothing's wrong (even though things are very wrong right now). I start thinking about my future, and that I am not going to achieve the very simple things I've always wanted to have, and that I'm a failure for that. Then I tell myself "well, maybe I don't really want these things, otherwise I'd still go for them despite my situation – but it doesn't really matter, since I can't have them anyway". I guess I do that in order to rationalize my hopelessness. It just drags me into thinking that, if I can't really have these things I hardly really want, then I have to reason to stay alive and go on.

I've been trying to break free from the depressive state I've been in for the last few months, but it's been hard. Anything I do is a reason for me to guilt trip myself into thinking I've made some terrible mistake that is not worth of forgiveness, even when my mind is telling me my fuck up wasn't really that bad, or even an actual fuck up. Maybe I'm just trying to find more reasons to tell myself it is okay to "go", or that I should.
I used to be numb – I'm not completely numb anymore, I'd say I'm the very opposite. Still, feelings scare me more than I know. I pretend to welcome and accept them, and to be okay with them, but every night I feel overwhelmed, either by good things or bad things. I always wear my heart on my sleeve, and this gets me into bad situations all the time. I've thought a lot about how I can change that. At the same time I think this is one of my bad traits, I also think it is a good one because of how rare it is nowadays. In the end it might just be pure stupidity mixed with naiveté.

I want friends, but realistically speaking, I guess that in a perfect world I'd probably only talk to my S.O. and only chat with my friends when I felt like it, as selfish as it might be. Is it really a friendship if you don't want to talk to someone when they need you because they count on you? Taking care of "friends" feels like too much sometimes. I'd rather stick to one or two of friends and not talk daily with them, but rather talk when I feel like my batteries are fully charged. I feel like they need me though, and they probably do to some extent, so I can't force myself to leave now.

I don't know what to do. Sometimes I tell myself I need a long warm hug from someone who will not judge me or think anything bad about me holding them and not letting them go – but would I realistically want that? I'd feel bad about it after I let go of them, I know it. Part of me thinks I don't deserve such privilege of being held like that. I know that is probably not true, but I can't change it, I don't know how.

Every day I fight against this black hole. I don't know if I will win. I've struggled so much. Feeling useless, unable to get a better job, and even unmotivated to try to do anything to get out of this – all these things are hurting me. Physical loneliness hurts me a lot, too. Even though I do not feel as lonely as I used to a couple months ago, I still need to feel cared for somehow, even if this meant someone would simply hold my hand. I really wish I'd close my eyes and not have to wake up tomorrow. I'm done with trying, and I want to go. I've never really planned my life after my 20th birthday. Joke's on me because I've been lingering here for years. Things could've been better if I had.

Hey… Don't worry, you're doing just fine :)

I actually have some "friends", but I never had the opportunity to help one in need. They just don't approach me with important things. And that is actually not important at all, as it seems. I mean I still manage to be sad that I'll never be a bridesmaid and not even a godparent or something. But I have people to call and to occasionally hang out with if I feel like it.

What helps is to be bound by duty. Like in school, where most people get their only friends, just because they have to be together so often. So just attend a community and make it a priority so you're bound to go and there is a mutual duty to interact - that's where friendship (the normal one, not the trouble lifesaver one) comes frim

I'm 25, very soon to be 26 and still haven't acquired those things. I'm pathetic because at 21 I tried very hard to have a birthday party for myself at a bar, but ended up being stood up by everyone and then sleeping with a very nasty man. I am working next to a group of girls at work that have each and every day been discussing their next outing and everyone it's like everyone within the proximity is invited except for me. I even heard my name mentioned and heard "we'll see about that…" in a bitchy voice, I think, I'm also insecure and might have imagined that. But I did hear my name dropped in the plans and then heard a negative response. It was from a girl who was once really nice to me and has suddenly turned cold the last few weeks and I'm not sure what I did. Another one in on this, will say goodmorning to me in a really sweet voice based on who is nearby but when I said it to her when we were alone she pretty much mumbled "yeah whatever" at me. The one who used to be nice was telling me a story, and that one scowled at me. I don't know what I'm doing wrong.

A girl who came along and actually made an effort to be my friend has been less talkative lately, and harder to socialize with. I'm leaving soon, and she even dropped the words "bonding" to describe us hanging out and always said she wanted to know me. But she has been harder to get along with lately and I think I upset her maybe, yet she is dumping a lot of energy and enthusiasm into talking with these girls at work. It sounds stupid but she filled me with joy by being my friend but suddenly I'm crying in the bathroom at work and I feel very very hurt by her.

I am almost always a sober person but I have been so upset about things that I couldn't sleep and have drank hard liquor tonight at 1am in order to calm down. I have to leave the house by 6:42am to catch my bus to work. My head is so full of thoughts and anguish over this girl I can't even sleep, but I feel calm and uncaring now.

And I understand that I am not owed anything from this girl who wanted to be my friend. But at the same time she used a lot of sappy, clingy and affectionate language that really affects a person in my position and I'm so naïve I again and again fall for peoples words that turn out to not mean anything. And if I did scare her off it's still reasonable for me to be upset even if it's my own shortcomings.

I can think of things to live for such as romance. I want a boyfriend. One of my dreams is to get with a guy with no sisters, and either no brothers or only incel brothers and so his mom treats me like the daughter she never had and her the mother I never had. My ex though, his family wouldn't even have me at their dinner table or over for holidays ever. I wasn't good enough for them. It sounds goofy but they actually told him I couldn't be over on Christmas for dinner. I don't have my own family for holidays or anything either so it hurts.

You talk about finding a way to be happy alone. I feel complete despair. I fantasize about having relationships with other humans a lot. When I was a teenager I would lay awake and cry at night fantasizing about having children and a husband or fantasizing about having a different family.

Honestly, I will probably fail to hang myself like I did 9 months ago. Or maybe not. I am supposed to have a guy over maybe, who I went on a date with 3 weeks ago and he expressed desire to see me again. Yet he never initiates any texting and takes forever to respond. He has been busy and was out of town even. One of the things I'm waiting to see is if he actually comes over this weekend and it's a major factor in whether I'm calling it quits or not.

I am a hopelessly clingy and needy person stuck in a recluses life. I don't know what I can find to make me happy. It's not the life I want and I don't like being me. I don't care if it isn't stoic or this is whiney first worlder entitlement, I deserve much better than all of this. I haven't been a bad enough person to deserve the isolation and emotional/physical abuse I've experienced. I haven't deserved to be called "amazing", "bff" and all sorts of sappy shit by a girl claiming to want to be my friend only for her to slowly back out and hurt my feelings.

I always wished I could be like Fay valentine or some other bad bitch from an anime who is all alone in the universe. But that isn't me, I'm a highly sensitive and emotional creature that desperately needs a tribe and close ones. I am beginning to feel truly hopeless about my life ever changing, and I might actually just be suffering until I finally die.

Anon, please reconsider, what those girls did was terrible, and they sound incredibly fake, you shouldn't let them corrupt your thoughts with their toxic behavior.
You can find friends, i was in a similar situation and at times i thought i would die alone, possibly after slashing my veins in some bathroom, but i found some wonderful people out of the blue without even trying, sometimes i feel like i don't deserve them and i'm a drag on them, but i was as hopeless as you are, and without trying one day my life changed forever. Happiness can come when you least expect it, you need to let it happen to you, though.
Forget those women, and forget their two faced act, there is such a great amount of people on earth, and most of them are absolutely lovely and hoping a person like you comes by their lives, so don't give up.

I don't know you, but you sound like such a lovely and caring person, i'm sure you will find someone that will fulfill your wishes and will love you.

I've tried antidepressants before, and saw a psychiatrist for a long time. I'd like to try mindfulness, but I really don't know where to start. Tbqh I don't even want to try anything, I just want to accept things as they are and allow myself to understand it's over. Sorry this is dark and depressing.
It's really hard for me to make friends, so I think the only ones I manage to make are people who rely on me for support, otherwise they probably wouldn't stay with me.

Anon, that is just your depression talking, i'm sure your friends would love you even if they did not rely on you for support. Relationships are giving as much as you take, so you can also lean on them, open yourself up and i'm sure you will clear these kind of thoughts. If your friends didn't like you as company, they wouldn't be with you, i'm sure you are a good friend to have, but you shouldn't try to figure out other peoples thoughts, especially while you let your depression talk, that only makes things darker and doesn't help.

I know the future looks so bleak and dark, but you never know what might come after, keep on, anon, maybe you'll find a good therapist who can help you after all, maybe you'll meet a wonderful person on a few years out of the blue without expecting it and it will shake your world.

I don't know, anon-chan. I only have 1 RL friend who I consider an actual friend, but even then she only talks to me when she needs something. My other RL friend hardly ever talks to me, but I consider him a friend anyway. One of my life long friendships ended terribly 3-4 months ago when my friend let me alone in a situation where I could be killed, literally. The rest of my friends are e-friend and are probably my closest friends right now, but unfortunately they can't help me with my touch starvation. I appreciate your words though, I'm not going to give up just yet even though I wish I would.

Aw anon, have you tried maybe starting conversations with those friends yourself? Maybe they just don't know how to approach you easily so they talk to you when they have problems, sometimes i know i can be like that, so maybe the same happens to them.
Or maybe,could you try to meet up your e-friends if you trust them enough? Maybe that would help you feel a bit better and help you with your touch starvation, they sound like good friends.

Most paradoxically, you bother people more the more you try not to bother them. It's because they sense things are wrong, this is a mechanism that has been in place since before speech was developed so it's important on a deeper level and bothers them more.

Conversely, if you blabber about your problems all day continuously, they will try to help you and consider it socialization, and only in the extremest of cases say "shut up" jokingly (and that's not too bad, really).

I mean, yes, but it's still better than to see someone who obviously has massive troubles, but tries to make a secret of it and never says what's wrong, still is under pressure all the time.


Also, I guess just moaning about crap would be different from elaborating on a specific problem and asking the person for advice related to their experience… Then they would feel honored and valued, I'd guess.

God, lately i've been so drained of energy i don't know what to do. It's been a rough couple of months.

I just feel like i'm pushing a rock against an uphill.

I see people around me suffering and i feel so useless because i cannot do anything to help them and it's making me feel so sad, because i wish i just had the magical words that could make them feel happy, even if it meant i had to take all their sadness for myself, i just hate to see people i love suffer and me not knowing how to react to it because i'm such an idiot.

My depression has gotten worse, i cannot stop thinking that everyone i talk to secretly hates me or thinks i'm immature, the other day i spent over 7 hours crying because i felt so shitty and i just felt like everyone would prefer me gone and nobody actually likes me. Sometimes i just think of deleting everything i have and just going away so people don't have to pretend to like me anymore and have to deal with my useless ass. I feel like every time i show up i ruin someone's day or fuck something up, and i hate it so fucking much.
I've started considering suicide after almost a year of not thinking too hardly of it.
I wish i wasn't like this, i wish i was a normal person that could just accept the people around her, but i cannot think anyone could ever actually love me or like me.

I tend to feel things very strongly, so whenever i see anyone suffer i always try my hardest to help them, but when i accomplish nothing i just feel… useless and i break down.

Thank you anon, it's honestly gotten so bad, sometimes i just want to not talk to anyone and just isolate myself from anyone so they don't have to "deal" with me, and as you say, it becomes a serious vicious circle. I tend to think that any time i show up people feel like "not this bitch", even-though it might be unlikely, i wish i could beat those thoughts, but yeah. No matter how much people tell me they like me, i always feel insecure about it and like they are just being kind to not hurt my feelings, can never shake that feeling.

I hate having to take care of my family. I'm terrible at comforting people, I don't hug and I rarely say something even remotely nice to other people. My family is generally nice, completely opposite in these aspects and they rely on each other a lot. Wait, actually no. It's only women who are supposed to do this while men are excused for one reason or another. Fuck this. I've seen three family members' overall health spiral down while trying to offer emotional and physical support to others. It's come down to me who's now the only healthy one and who's expected to help. Fuck. This. Shit. This alone makes me wanna move across the globe.
And my mom and grandma have the guts to point out how convenient is to have a daughter (yes, they always say "daughter") and that I should reconsider my childfree stance. Jokes on them, I'm secretly sterile.

I'm only 21 but i'm starting to feel like a 90 year old from this, because i also have my own problems as well, and on top of that, i have to be this person's listener and have to listen to endless rants about their illness every day.

My dad died when I was 20 (a year ago) after being terribly ill since I was 3. The final years and especially the final months were a gauntlet of pain and horror, with the final two weeks feeling like they took 6 years.
All I’m going to say is that after they die you’re going to be happy at first. Just glad it’s over, both for them and for you. In my personal case it was even more extreme since my entire life was built aroundtaking care of him and he had a particularly rare and extreme illness that made him need constant care (and a lot of gore and bad scents in the end too), so when he died my whole life changed. However, over time you’ll start missing him more and more, and slowly the memories of how they were in the end and all the suffering they went through and brought to those around them will disappear, and only a compilation of happy images will remain. In your mind they’ll be reborn as the absolute best version of themselves as they were in their prime, with an added layer of all the other good times.
If they’re dying soon, make sure to talk a lot if you can. Very few people have the privilege to tie up all the loose ends before they die. There’s going to be stuff you want to ask them that you won’t think of unril after they’re dead, but you want to deal with all the major stuff when you still can.

But it's getting more and more difficult to have a conversation because it always goes back to them complaining about the illnesses or crying, i'm exhausted.

It's like their happiness has been sucked away and only the pain remains and it's just, draining me so badly.

Going through something similar. I was in a long distance thing with a boy, and he eventually lost interest in me (I'm not upset at him for this, we did rush into it fast so I can see why he could've had second thoughts). When he told me, it shattered my heart. I told him everything that was on my mind for the past few months, and so when he said that, I first sent what was trying to be a nice message, but then later on I sent him a long awful message solely with the intention of making him feel horrible. It crushed me when he deleted the messaging service we were using (means he can never see through our conversations again, he'll never look back on what we had like I do) and he blocked me on his facebook (we never added each other because we both agreed that social media was dumb). I just don't know if I'll ever click with someone as well as I did with him, I've never been so comfortable with someone in my entire life, it was like I'd known him all my life, and now he's deleted me from his life because I couldn't keep my stupid mouth shut.

I either come off as awkwardly too polite or as mildly offensive when I try to be more laid-back and friendly. If I try to go along with whatever the person is saying I sound (and I am) fake as fuck because I can't hide the fact that I don't find their jokes funny or really care about what they are saying.

I just don't know what to do. When I try to talk to people I get embarrassing memories I'd like to forget and when I go back into the recluse lifestyle I get further away from my goal of being able to speak normally. Tried reading a few self-help books too but they didn't really help.

Are you a NEET? Being part of the workforce will force you to improve your social skills, retail and service industry jobs are like normie bootcamp.

I'm not a NEET. I'm a uni student and work part time, but I don't speak to my classmates or coworkers for the most part (my coworkers talk behind my back about me I know but I'm not sure what they say about me). At work I pretty much just read off a script, if a customer tries to talk to me more for whatever reason I just shut down.
My first post may have been a bit misleading, but by recluse lifestyle I mean I don't really talk to anyone most days aside from reading off a script to customers, and in my free time I never go out anywhere or see anyone.

i don't really think a job counts as 'normie boot camp', it was just
a way to make a living. if anything the period when i got closest to 'normie' was when i was in college.

I feel like a bitch for even feeling like this but here we go. I have a really nice boyfriend who cares a lot about me, takes care of me, and my parents love him. We get along fine but there’s definitely a disconnect a lot of the times. There’s times where I feel really confident in our relationship(like, it working out) but I’d be lying if I said that I feel like that the majority of the time, lol. It really doesn’t help that he has weird controlling immigrant parents.. his mom doesn’t even know I exist. Apparently she’s looking into getting him an arranged marriage “once he gets his shit together” despite him not wanting one and telling her that. Whats weird is his dad just keeps the secret(aka me) from his mom and just actively lies to his wife about a lot to avoid making her angry. I just feel caught up in something I didn’t sign up for. I don’t know his mom, and from what I’ve heard she seems quite abusive but I still am not comfortable with pretty much being complacent in a huge lie and abuse of her trust in her husband and son. Like, this has to come out eventually and I can’t imagine how she would react finding out that her own family has been lying to her for so long. Even his little brother knows of me. It’s just a horrible, stupid situation. I’ve tried talking to my bf about just telling his mom the truth sooner, rather than later(several times) and it has always been a hard no. This is honestly making me crazy because otherwise he’s a good boyfriend but all of this plus other issues we have just have me reminiscing over old loves. Which isn’t fair to him. I guess my dumbass is just stuck between choosing to stay and tough it out and be unsatisfied in the relationship or leave.

Let him know how much it upsets you. Tell him that you're unhappy with how the relationship is and you don't want to leave him but you can't stay if nothing's going to change.

Is his family the majority of what's giving you doubts about the relationship? Because eventually if you stick together you are going to move away from them and not have to interact again. Unless there are some other huge issues you haven't mentioned, I wouldn't worry about it too much.

i'm cramping but i'm not on my period
googled it and i guess this is a normal part of the ovulation cycle..hoping it's not something awful like ovarian cancer (i know i was exposed to quite a bit of radiation recently due to a stress test + dental xray )
my mom's always telling me not to hop to the worst thing so i guess i'll try and chill? i'm worrying too much

anyway i hope everyone reads this has good heath for the rest of their lives. never realized how important it was to be healthy until this shit started happening ( not necessarily the cramps, but the positive stress test, feeling like i'm not having enough air, entirely random aches and pains , etc )

Until very recently I had no idea I was so afraid of being left behind and abandoned. I am sure I know the roots of this fear as I've been abandoned many times during my childhood and early teens. I try to avoid thinking about it, but it's complicated. I only have two good things in my life and I'm always afraid they will go away or that I don't deserve them. I've been battling depression for years, and this year has been bad for the most part. Just two months ago I was isolating myself so I'd have the courage to neck myself. I bought the rope and everything.

I just want to be sure of the future, and that's impossible. Living scares me.

I really hate my dad for massively over-sharing private details about our family and telling everyone from strangers and acquaintances whom NONE of us are close to about our personal matters.

I don't care that most people he talks to probably don't remember half of his words, it's not his business to be going around prattling to people WE don't know about private things we want to decide with whom to share. He even told a neighbour (whom I know for a fact he isn't even friends with!) that my sister has been unemployed for so and so long and left cashiering because she has social anxiety. I'm not going to tell her because it'll just make both of us upset but seriously, dad? Why? Really makes me wonder what else he's been telling everyone he comes across.

The worst thing is, I'm pretty sure he isn't doing it for attention, it's just the way he is! He's never had a filter and often blurts out things that are not inappropriate in a given situation. We've told him again and again to PLEASE stop running off at his mouth but he doesn't understand our concerns and gets angry every time we call him out for it.

Also his jokes are getting progressively worse and more unfunny. They're horrible yet he thinks he's so funny and keeps telling them

for the first time In my life I am so painfully jealous of someone to the point it’s souring our friendship. A bit of a backstory, i have a wonderful partner who recently fell really ill and as a result we won’t be able to travel for a very very long time, we had plans of going to jp but timing of the illness and financial distress kind of ruined that which is really sad but I know I’ll get over it, But this friend of mine… I can’t help but be insanely jealous! She really doesn’t do anything for herself except use her much older boyfriend for his money, she has “anxiety” (not doubting its fake but she won’t get help for it despite us going through the trouble to get her help) and her bf constantly complains to us in private about how she doesn’t leave their house, she’s on the Internet all day crafting a fake persona and doing in house photo shoots (selfies with her phone in the bathroom) (she has lots of followers online but she looks Nothing like her photos at all) and he’s juggling multiple jobs for their living situation but he’s still paying for her entire flight and hotels to Japan next year. I’m bitter and jealous that she gets to do all of this amazing stuff for free and without working for it and it’s making me feel so gross inside ugh I wish I could just… make these feelings go away somehow.

Despite knowing all of the mechanics of my depression and how I can snap out of it, I realized that it's physically impossible for me to do everything I should do. I'm not an orderly person but I have two houses to take care of two old ones that are actually fucked and would need thousands in investment to be even remotely nice

It would not even work if I HAD the time but I'm in a full time job with my kids that nobody really recognizes because I chose that life myself, yet I have to conform to all the expectations.

It is too much. But I know that despair just feeds back into the anxiety/depression loop.

So what? Just say "Fuck it :^D" and live in mayhem? I have lots of talents but if I manage to "bee myself" I would probably do 20 retarded engineering projects a day and live in a pigs stable .

The next issue is that we're poor as fuck and my husband refuses to change anything about our income situation. It wouldn't be so bad if we weren't constantly in the negative because of some unneeded gadgets we buy. I can't complain because I basically get sustained without working, but I just have to settle with having a poor husband.Again, I chose this, and now I'm frustrated. I am what gives womanhood a bad name.

It would be so nice, it is objectively a nice life, but I'm constantly under pressure .

Try not to drink alone or too early in the day. Drinking with your cat doesn't count as not drinking alone.
And when you drink with a friend, just tell them you don't want to get too sloshed tonight and to keep an eye on you. A bad friend might complain about having to cut you off or make sure you get home okay, but a good friend who cares about your well-being won't.

I wish my life was easier. Nothing is simple or easy in my life. I always try to make things work out, even when I'm tired of trying. Nothing ever works out or it just backfires. Things that are beyond my control are crucial in situations that could potentially make me happy, so they seem unreachable right now. People break their promises or change their minds, while I always try to keep mine and keep my feelings steady. I'm used to being betrayed in some way or another, or being forgotten.
As much as I know I might be pity partying right now, I can't help but to feel sorry for myself.

I wish I'd wake up ten years in the future to see what happened to me. Fast forward to 2028 to see what I've done with my life, if anything, for better or worse.
I tend to isolate myself when I feel down. I do that to prevent myself of dragging others down with me or, even worse, making them feel sorry for my ass. That's something I cannot bear even though I open my heart quite easily. I guess I start throwing up my feelings without a second thought, just to feel ashamed after I'm done. I've opened up a lot lately and looking back, I wish I wouldn't because my drama probably made people feel bad for me, or sorry for me, or worried.
I want to go back to my shell and stay there.
I remember someone once asked me if I would like to be remembered after death and I told them I'd want to be less than a memory. If I could erase the memory of me from everyone's heads, I would.

I think I got ghosted IRL and it's the weirdest thing to me, halfway through funny and just sad but mostly weird, cause it had never happened to me before. Basically I met this dude in class and we talked about anime and movies, I might have come off as a weirdo but honestly I felt chill about it. Next time I see him we're both with some common friends and he won't even look at me. Seriously. Even when I talked, he wouldn't acknowledge me. I felt like I might have done something wrong, but I can't really recall any instance of me offending him to the level he won't even look at me.
I'm 100% socially retarded though so it may have eluded me. I never talked about this to anyone because… I don't know why, but I feel like I'm the one who ought to be ashamed. Even if I'm not the one ignoring people without reason/without explaining myself

if he's a really shy or insecure person it's possible he's into you and is now being very avoidant to prevent embarrassment or some form of rejection from heading his way.

I want to make my life worth living.

I've tried to find reasons to hold on by telling myself I have do things to be happy because of my own happiness – so that I should enjoy what life gives me without expecting me to reach a certain goal.

The problem is that I don't actually want anything in life that I could enjoy by myself. I've never had proper "dreams" or "goals" with the exception of two or three that require me to have other people in my life to come true. I have a desire to care for someone else, and love them, and make them feel safe and secure. I want to be needed and need someone too. That's it.

Unfortunately I happen to be socially inept for the most part so making meaningful connections is hard. I'm the type of person who listens to many people, but only open up to a few. On top of that I feel extra guilty and ashamed when I do open up – and god knows I need to do that every now and then. So my meaningful interactions are few. Loving someone and being loved the same way seems even harder.

My ex hurt me in so many ways and even threatened my life.
Our relationship was horrible. It was pure codependency plus fear of abandonment on both ends. I don't miss being in a romantic relationship with him, but I miss feeling needed and knowing I meant the world to someone else.
I remember when I broke up with him and told myself the next time I developed feelings for someone I'd want to experience a calm yet steady love. I want love, intensity and companionship with the assurance that I won't be alone again.

I think I should do volunteer work again, but even when I did, it didn't feel like enough to me (I mean, I should do volunteer work again anyway because in the end it's not about me, but other people). What I want is to be important as an individual.
I feel like my life is meaningless and empty. I need some sort of fuel. I'm trying my best to improve, and even change my mindset, but I'm tired. I wish things would be easy for once.

I want to kill myself.
I'm so sad I can't eat. I've been losing weight for months and months and I can't gain it back. My ribs are showing now. I hate my body now, too. But I don't want to eat. I have no appetite. Looking at food makes me feel sick. Eating it makes me gag. I crave nothing anymore.

I don't want this anymore and I'm tired of trying. I'm tired of being lonely and unloved. I have no family. And I'm letting myself get used for sex by someone who just pretends to care about me.
I want to die. I just don't care anymore. What is the purpose of living? I was beaten and abused by my parents as a child, molested by my cousin, bullied in school, raped in university, and I'm still alone as an adult. Why the fuck should I care about life and living?

But when I'm a dead skeleton they'll pretend they cared. People are horrible, awful users.
I just wanted someone to love me.

Most people are shitty, but thinking everyone is a user is unrealistic. There's a lot of good in the world, and people will surprise you. I totally agree with >>11836 though. Ending that situation (or any other situations in your life that makes you feel used/unwanted) is just one thing you don't have to worry about. I know it's easier said than done, but you need to start somewhere.

i find it hard to believe that someone who would say they are having such a negative impact on those around them, actually is having said impact. and if you truly are, well then it seems that you're conscious of it and you can probably make things better in a variety of ways. when you are gone everyone will not be happier, if there's people in your life who love you they will be worse off, people never let go of things like this, especially suicide. what is the situation you want? as long as it's reasonable you should be able to break it down into little goals and work towards them. i think showing yourself some love and working towards attainable goals is a much nicer option than self hate and throwing suicide dates at the wall.

My husband informed me that he will not have sex with me anymore because he doesn't want more children "at the moment".

I feel like my heart was ripped out. This is against everything we committed to. I'm sure he uses that as pressure because "I don't want kids to suffer this kind of life", meaning less than stellar household. Apparently "they suffer", he can't make me one single family where the kids have a better life but that doesn't matter because "he doesn't compare himself to lesser people".

I feel betrayed and worthless. And, what's even better, he assumed I would keep on giving him BJ's (what I have been doing unilaterally for years). Lol.

Second year of college, I absolutely hate it. It seems even worse than first year. I'm thinking of dropping out, but atm I don't have a job due to being a full-time student. I have untreated social anxiety, and it seemed manageable the first year since I didn't really talk to anyone (not that I minded) and my classrooms were much more roomy and not as crowded.

I feel like an autist whenever I converse with anyone, like their discomfort talking to me is palpable. Sometimes I feel so alienated from others I feel I shouldn't be alive for not being able to act normal socially. I can't stand up and introduce myself to the class without my voice nearly giving out and stuttering a bunch. I like my major but just have a terribly hard time being interested in any of the classes I'm taking. I dunno though, I'd feel like a huge neet loser for being almost 22 and dropping out. Conflicted feelings indeed.

I have like five friends including my older sister. My only hobbies are painting and reading scientific journals. I'm pretty sure I know what I want to do as a career after undergrad, which is to become an infectious disease doctor and maybe a physician-scientist. However I don't know if I'll ever become better at forming and maintaining human relationships.

I'm afraid my mentally ill father is going to blow my parents' retirement savings on a pointless feud with his estranged sister.

I'm lonely but I'm getting sick of going through the process of finding people to talk to and going through the motions of getting to know each other only to end up disappointed, hurt, or back to feeling lonely again. I wish one of my friends would reach out and message but nobody seems interested in having spontaneous chats. I get they could be busy, insecure, or whatever and it's hypocritical of me to demand their attention when I struggle with the same things and could be doing more to sustain our connections but I swear I try really hard sometimes and I still end up disappointed. I know I'm not that great to talk to. I wish I were more consistent personality wise. But what can I do besides keep trying? I just want to sense some initiative and effort from the other persons behalf, to show that they care rather than giving me passive messages every now and then or rather nothing.

Tomorrow, I am meeting with a once-close-but-acquaintances-who-know-a-few-personal-details-about-me family friend as I haven't seen her in a year as she moved below the border for a job. I … honestly don't really want to but it seemed like she really wanted to see me.

I don't think she really wants to though. Through IG stories, she posted her sister and another family friend hanging out together without me. It's always been the three of them hanging out without me, and they don't ask me ever to hang out together, so it just feels like she feels obligated to see me (her mom and mine are very close; my friend's mom probably told her to see me for god knows why) and not out of genuine pleasure. I just feel pretty out of everything these days and seeing them hang out without me was the cherry on the shit cake.

I think my long hair is cute, but it doesn't much project my personality at all. It'd feel like a waste to chop it all off again while I'm young, since I've been a little more feminine lately, and it's taken this long to grow again, but it's borderline dysphoria. If I had a gf I'd keep it long for sure, but alas, I do not. Half of me wants to just do away with it, but the other half knows I'd cry if I did.

I'm sorry i didn't reply to all of you, but i'm sad so many of you feel similar to me and wish i could help you.
I decided to reach out to a few people but instead of support i basically got told that i was selfish for thinking of doing it and attacked for my choices, instead of telling me not to do it or anything similar, so that did not help much.
Someone did take me seriously, and it felt good letting it out, but it's still on the back of my mind, and i cannot stop thinking about just doing it.
I've had a really bad past few months, my meds feel like they are not working and my life is going downhill, i have had incredible bad luck these past few weeks (more than usual).
I feel like i'm annoying everyone around me still, no matter how much they reassure me, and i keep feeling like everybody's afterthought, which isn't nice. I've barely had any energy these past few days, i stopped working out, i stopped eating, i barely have enough energy to talk to people but i still try to muster it up to appear happy.
I'm still not sure if i will go, but if i do, i just want to tell everyone that replied to me saying they also wish to do so, to please don't do it, try a little longer if you can, as i will i, crystal cafe changed my life for the better (seriously) and i wish we could all feel better, wherever you are anons, i'm sending hugs to you to keep pushing on a little bit more.

I feel so pathetic wanting to buy a meal, but settling for a large diet pepsi

it's funny that a lot of people on ana forums act like their life is so different or shitty because of anorexia, and though I'd say mine is, in a way, it also is no different. I've always found a way to obsess over the numbers, or the completeness of, a thing.

I wish I weren't so enslaved to it. I wish I didn't need to cross-check every single selling website when I find a piece of clothing I like so I can buy it for $5 less. Just buy the damn thing, people say.

I don't know. I wish I weren't enslaved by how I have to take forever to price check, calorie check, stand mesmerized by the labels of shit when I'm shopping.

On the other hand, I have no idea what it's like to not be that way. How could I ever be okay with myself, knowingly buying something when there is the exact same thing for cheaper or for less calories elsewhere?

I hate how sometimes I resent this habit of mine, but then, there's so many times where I don't even care. I don't even think about it. This is my normal.
