it is so frustrating when you think you’re doing ok. You feel fine it’s all going good and then one person says one thing that just flips you over the edge and that’s it. Gone with no hope of return. They are the straw that broke the camels back. You’ve gone from being alright, to fucking suicidal within minutes. I hate people. People are selfish, inconsiderate, horrible creatures.

I think finding a way to come back after you get “flipped over the edge” is key. Focusing on positives so you’re not feeling so awful.. support groups are key for that. I hope you’re doing ok ❤️

Hugs. I know exactly how you feel. I was having a great day & things went to shit a few minutes ago. Hang in there. Just know there are people who know what you're going through hun.

I'm sorry to hear that. At one point a person is doing fine, and the next moment, one thing ruins that person's day

Hello my friend. That has happened to me a lot in my life, but I have learned that not to pay too much attention to stupid comments from people with little feelings or even common sense for others. I am here for you always girl and want to help in any way I can. It has been very hard for me of late as I'm going through severed depression again, but slowly starting to get back to feeling better. In the meantime I'm so scared and just want this to end. The Dr. says it will get better and it has before. I'm here for you girl. Lots of hugs and support.

from experience... there will always be someone to criticize or try to bring you down hard. even when all is wrong in life (everyday) i ignore the ignorant comments. people & so called 'friends' are mean cos they're the pathetic ones. broken people who only want to spread upsetment. you are a work in progress. i wish you better days. look at the source before those jerk-y comments bring you down. prayers & a big hug to you.

I'm so sorry you're experiencing this kind of pain. People truly can be so hurtful. But people can also be truly loving. I think you'll find tons of support here and I'm so glad that you posted so that we can tell you how much you're loved. I'm sending you a virtual hug and praying for you. God Bless.

“Don’t let other people rent space in your head unless you want them to.”
“Don’t waste your time on someone who isn’t willing to waste their time on you”
“No one can make you feel inferior without your consent”

Just a few quotes that work for me, hopefully they can work for you.
