Been through hell my whole life, granted most of it occured in my brain, I just want out, nobody has been able to help me, I have done countless things to help myself and I aways come back to this point.
Im nearly 29 and I have virtually nothing to show for this, I feel quite calm, I just want to die before this depression gets even worse!

I know how you feel Rich, I feel like I have been through hell and the depressive shit still continues. It is like their is no light at the end of the tunnel.

You have to try to focus on the fact that in getting to where you are now there are always good things, people whose lives you have made a little better even if just for a moment.

The negative situation you may feel you are in right now is not the sum of your life and even less so represents the sum of what you can potentially achieve, there is always hope, always.

hi, sorry that life is so hard right now. u do still have time to build a decent life. mine really started to change at 29. for good and bad, there's always a balance, never total happiness.
