help

I am trying to pull myself out of an emotional funk and have decided to give out some food to people. I plan to give it to people through street outreach. I need a good name for my plan and I can't think of one. I was thinking something related to unicorns but the ideas came out all wrong. I...

So I've heard a lot of people talking about how music has gotten them through hard times. So what I'd like to do is start a thread about what everyone likes to listen to when they're down or angry. It can be one song or several, I want to hear anything you have to offer. The idea is to have a SF...

My head hurts and I feel so lonely. Maybe there is going to be a breakthrough of some sort, but I feel horrible. Thank you for listening to me ache over and over. I remember everyone who responds and it is kind of them.

So about a year ago, I went to a friend's house. It was my friend (no names, just initials) A's house (female), our mutual friend B(male), my best friend S (female) and myself all at this little party. A's brother got us some alcohol because hey we're teenagers and like to do stupid shit. He...

Intro (IMPORTANT PART TO READ): I have been struggling to help my (don’t judge before reading the whole story) ex girlfriend. We were forced to be separated by her parents and things have gone downhill. My goal was always to make her happy, and I can’t stand the though of her being emotionally...

Sorry for my bad english. I am a 23 year old boy who have had suicidal thoughts for about 6 months now. I have always had low self esteem, but it have just gotten worse and worse the last couple of years, because of some bad choices i have made. It started 3-4 years ago where i would go on...

Hello everyone, I am new to this forum. I need advice that will actually work. Something I haven't heard before. I applogize if my post comes across as sounding snarky, I'm just tired and desperate. I have had clinical depression for several years. In this time, I have seen therapists, taken...

Hello, hi, not really sure how to do this, but I found this page at a perfect time, I think. My situation is one I literally can not get out of, and Ive tried. I feel so alone. I know I'm not, I have friends and family that I love oh so much. But at the same time I know that they have a...

SHORT VERSION: Anyone here in a close situation? PROLOGUE: I am writing this fast because my mind is moving very fast on this subject. It probably will be hard to read. I posted this on a different subreddit and then got shy and deleted it and I forgot what subreddit it was so now I am posting...

Hello I am new to the site, I had a relapse in cutting lately and I have a question that may sound stupid to others.... Is it normal for my skin to give off bad heat? No I do not mean the cuts and there stinging I mean burn as in when someone touches them the heat even bothers them. I recently...

My last post here was about me finally got out from this phase... but idk what triggered me, the feels and thoughts are rushing back like i was thrown into a lake full of those feelings and thoughts. All i did was trying to be realistic. I keep convince myself that i don't need help, i'm fine...

I know it's in the rules but I joined this forum like 7-8 years ago. I have a lot other accounts out in internet space with the same username and whenever I search my username this stuff comes up. I'm doing well and occasionally come here to reminisce and maybe post positive things for others...

Okay.. to everyone reading (If anyone) I'm trying. Yeah I'm not doing so well but for the first time in a while I think I understand life goes on. I'm currently skipping class & I know not good. But I'm out in nature smoking (also not so good I know) but just sitting here taking in nature even...

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...

Hiya All I was wondering if you can help me, when i am with a certain chap I am constantly manic/depressed mentally and emotionally and often there's no reason to be like it or it's because he's been pissing me off. However, when I am at home, I put on a happy face but inside I am really...

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...

I have been gone for a little while from the forum. Being a full time student and working full time has been quite overwhelming for the past month and I was hoping that being so busy would keep me from suicidal ideation. In reality, nothing will get me out of this depression and hopelessness...

When you are depressed you can often feel worthless, you look at your life and the lives of those around you and see that you don't matter, and often when you are depressed you withdraw so completely that you have already taken yourself out of the world so taking that last step and ending it all...

Hello everyone, I discovered this site earlier this year around January I think and it did really help me but I discontinued using it because I found myself getting a little happier. Now, I went through a shitty break up last year which triggered this great depression inside of me. I also got...

Ok so I'm 22 and I can't work because of my mental problems, which is fine but I noticed how boring and lonely I get just sitting at home. I don't drive and I'm working on getting a license but even if I did drive there's nowhere fun to really go. I've been really sad about the loneliness and...
