alone

"You look beautiful" means nothing unless you believe it So stop telling me that tight black dress looks good on me because honestly I feel disgusting in it And it's too tight around my belly to the point where it makes me want to puke everything I ever ate And stop telling me "love yourself"...

I’m 18 years old. Eighteen. Seems pretty young. Yet amazingly, I’m already halfway through my life expectancy. Living with vascular EDS and severe lupus is awful. I’m not going to lie: it is terrible. I’m in the hospital more often than not, I’m in constant pain. Not to mention my grades are...

When I think back at my life, I realize that I was, for the most time, truly alone. My parents aren't divorced or anything. But, my father leaves the house at 7 am and comes back around 7 pm. (He works in another city). My mother tried her best, but was never truly there. Especially in the last...

i always say when I'm skinny or lose more weight I will get help and go to therapy because I don't deserve to get help if I'm fat. I don't deserve to get better because I have never attempted suicide (I want to kill myself but I'm a fucking pussy) and am not depressed or suicidal enough. I don't...

Hello, Let me write a little bit about myself and my problem. I am 37 years old. Since I remeber the only really important thing in my life was my family. My younger sister, parents and grandparents. My parents divorced when I was 10 and I lived with my mum and sister until I was 19, when my mum...

Woke up this morning feeling ok. Bit as i started getting ready for work i started feeling more down and i was looking at myself in the mirror whilst doing my hair and thinking "is living this life worth it". I feel so alone, i have like 2 friends and one of them is my cousin ( i recently...

Aaaah! I don't want to feel it and I shouldn't feel this way at this age (30s) but I find myself plunging into a whole host of emotions from anger, depression, upset and self loathing when I see a friend has done something fun, gone on a trip or organised something and I'm not included. I can...

I'm in my mid-forties and divorced with no children. I adored my husband, trusted him completely, thought he was my best friend. But he was hiding a terrible secret, which when revealed destroyed my life and everything for which I had worked so hard. The event, although not my fault, affected...

So I guess this has to do with family, friends and relationships. I'm one of the younger people on here and I just want to know I'm not the only one who ever feels this way. I've been doing so well. I haven't SH since thanks giving day. I honestly thought I was doing okay. But now I feel this...

R really want some money. I m out of this. I don't want beggary I want to work. Plz help. People around me r against me to earn but I want to earn. They keep me in a room can I earn online help me please

So I'm going into self destruct mode. Things are bad with family college and friends. I'm not working, I have no motivation and this is my final year before I go to uni. I'm constantly arguing with my family. And I'm sleeping with loads of boys. I hurt someone I really care about by sleeping...

This year, 6 days ago to be exact, I moved from primary school to high school (I'm 15 years old). I didn't have much friends in primary school. Now I'm in high school and I think it's even worse, I'm completely alone there. There is one guy from the same primary school, but he kind of knew one...

I haven't been online in a while and so much has been going on. I hope I don't bother anyone with this and I hope you are all doing okay. First of all this week has been exams, which I've never enjoyed. As my mental health has gone down much more recently I haven't been able to focus. I'm...

I didn't post here for a long time. It's because every time i'm thinking about posting here, i find out that i would need to explain lots of stuff in long wall of text again. And since i know that talking or writing about it won't fix my life, i decide to not writing anything. I don't even know...

I've never had a real relationship in my life (I feel really pathetic about it since I'm almost 22) But I got close to having one 2 times. And two times something or someone was more important than me. And it hurts a lot. I just have the feeling as if I'm not good enough. Like I'm worth...

No matter what I do I feel like a failure. I've had an eating disorder for a while now and whenever I eat I feel like I'm a failure, but whenever I don't eat I feel like I'm letting down my friends when they tell me I should eat. They tell me I'm really skinny but I just don't see it. To me, I...

I am always stressed and worried about everything. Even the smallest insignificant things like: answering questions in class or where I'm going to sit for an assembly. Whenever I complete or get through what I was worrying about I just find something else to worry about and dwell on. It never...

It's been a while since I've been active on this site as I thought i was getting better. But I was wrong. Recently I've been upset and angry ALL the time. I've never wanted to eat, I've never been able to sleep (and when I do it's for about 5 minutes and usually about myself committing suicide)...

Almost exactly a week ago (minus about 30 minutes), a close friend of mine was found dead. The police say it was a suicide <mod edit- methods>. He was about to graduate, and recently got accepted to Graduate School. He was one of the happiest people I've ever known, and when we heard the news...
