I honestly don't want to be alive. I here being alive I'm tired and I just want to die. But because I'm stupid and a coward I know I would never actually kill myself. Now I feel like I'm stuck in this horrible purgatory where I can't die and hate living. I honestly want to know what depths I would have to reach for me to finally kill myself. I don't want help anymore I just want to die



Actually I do need help I'm in desperate need of help but I'm too scared. I wish I wasn't so horrible. I wish that I didn't have to go on a stupid rant about how I want to die.

One of the first steps to take (in my opinion) is to get therapy. A good therapist is one who listens to you, and you to them. They work with you to identify what you do and do not want out of life, and they work with you to formulate a plan to get to where you want to be.

It takes active thought and action on our part, but if we are willing to do the work, we can do it.

Sounds like you need some help getting through this. Therapy is a good place to start. No need feeling ashamed in getting it either. We'll be here to help support. Lots of strength and hugs.

You are not a coward and you are not stupid. Are you getting any help now? If not, talk with your parents and let them know how you are feeling so they can get you some help. Therapy would be a great place where you can talk about your thoughts and feelings. You can continue to talk with us on this site. We are all willing to listen and offer support.

help does not garenetee will end your pain. My doctor does not know how to end my bad mood, depress mood. I have been drinking. It can stop it for a while. Seening one doctor might help totally. Keep looking for way to help you feel better. Talk to experts, read and ask.

    I got an email from Kohl's that I had a 40% off coupon for today and tomorrow only.  It took me about an hour but I placed an order and got some great deals.  I have been wanting a new dress.  I like dressing up sometimes.  My birthday is coming up and I have dinner plans at a nice restaurant.  But, honestly, I'm a little out of control again.  I went through this in the fall.  I bought...

    Has anyone else noticed that clearly speaking and doing things intentionally is liberating because it helps combat the feeling of depression and a sense of hopelessness? Let me share a little more: in my experience, when those who have tried to project a hidden agenda that is obviously not aligned with integrity and well-being, it's best to be firm and speak clearly from self-awareness and...
