I feel hopeless right now and it feels shitty. I want to elaborate, but I can't because it's personal. So this vague post will have to suffice. That is all. I guess there isn't a huge point to this, so I'll ask a question to give this post purpose. Have you ever felt completely and utterly hopeless? What caused you to feel this way? A specific event or a culmination of them?
When I get like this I like to think that with an ounce of luck, the world will end at the end of the year and none of it will matter anyway. Many things contribute to feelings like this. Even a climate change or a new environment.
you're anonymous here, so in principle you could talk about it. there's lots of wise asses here though, so you might want to talk about how you feel some place else you might want to try talking about it at www.suicideforum.com . There are some non-crisis forums there, and I think it would be ok for you to use them I think that everyone feels hopeless at some time in their life. making a list of things that you feel grateful for can help you feel better. maybe watching some funny movies. support from friends and family can help. also talking to a therapist some of how you feel maybe related to seasonal change. you might want to get your vitamin d levels checked and also talk to an md about how you feel hope that you feel better soon!
ps, there's probably some folks here, including me, that you could pm to talk about what is going on if you don't feel ok with talking about it here
Yes I have felt utterly hopeless...and just like you, I'd rather not elaborate. It's not fun to talk about. Feel free to message me anytime to talk...I'm often in need of someone to talk to also.
That's sweet, thank you. I don't know, it's not like I don't have someone to talk to about it, I have at least one person that I can tell everything too, others that have a basic understanding of my issues and a therapist. I'm not suicidal or anything, just hopeless in the face of an issue. I'll be checking out those boards though. I just need to find the willpower inside of me to fix myself. If you need someone to talk to, message me. I can elaborate, but there probably isn't much that will come from it. Though I'm always open to helping others or just being there to listen.
Yes. I was just young and life seemed stupid and pointless and it was never going to get better. Just remember, "this too shall pass". Everything in our lives is a learning experience, and making it through the shitty times makes you stronger. :daisy:
