i dont feel happy anymore. i dont feel in control. all i do is cry. ive always had problems with anxiety and getting depressed but ever since my girlfriend and i broke up its been 100x worse. since the break up she has drawn me in and pushed me away until recently where she ended things for good. it has really messed me up emotionally. i feel so empty. i will wake up randomly at night and wont be able to fall back asleep because all i can do is think about this shit. i cant take it anymore. all i ever do is cry. no one really seems to give a shit about me. i feel unloved and unsupported now. i feel like a burden to the world and its just my time. i dont want to live anymore. i already know how i want to do it. im just so depressed i genuinely cant take this anymore. i know im only 18 and everyone just says i have so much to live for but they dont understand the amount of pain im truly in

You are so young...you have a lot to live for and a lot of living to do. You are only 18 years old!! Sounds like you need to go to counseling, especially if you don't have anyone close to you to support you through this...this hurts, I know. You may not believe this but there is going to be someone else down the road way better, I promise..your life is just beginning and it WILL be ok. Get some counseling, you will feel a lot better!

Hey kasterh.
It's easy to say but hard to follow but keep your head up. I am going through some crazy stuff right now as well but ending something that lies ahead of you, as in your future, is not the right path. You may think it is but that's just the easy route.
Try and look at it as if this was a huge hurdle for you and you get over it. Once you are over it imagine someone out there that is looking for someone like you.... someone that lives the way you live and loves the way you love.
You have the chance to make someone out there who is suffering as well be able to come to grips with life and live it up starting with yourself.
You will find happiness again just as I hope to as well.
Keep your head up man. We can get through this!!!

I know your thinking that no one has ever hurt like you hurt now, but we have, I have. I would cry myself to sleep, emotionally exhausted then jerk awake after only 30 mins of sleep in tears. I think I was actually crying in my sleep and I've never been a crier. I was frozen in pain, depression and anxiety. I know what the feelings of despair and hopelessness feels like. Please go to your Dr asap or if you feel you can't wait that long then go to the ER. I called my Dr. on Christmas eve at his home asking for his help and he called me in some meds to the 24hr pharmacy. Please ask for help. Meds can do wonders... We all need help sometimes....sending hugs

I know you can't see it now but things will start to get better. You will start to think about your future again. You will even start to imagine yourself with someone else. You're future is bright, you just can't see it right now because you're blind by pain. There is a woman in you're future that won't leave any questions in your mind that she loves you and won't hurt you. True love won't hurt you. So you don't want to be with someone that destroys your self esteem by popping in and out of your life. Take back your control, your self worth and to hell with her.
