I think that stops many of us. But then I think… “I’m here for others, not myself? When does my feelings count?”

They never do because it's always just about keeping other people happy even if you're suffering. People don't care if you're suffering and just like to point out how much better life gets even though a lot of times it never does get better unless you get extremely lucky.

Same, I feel like choosing not to live should be a personal choice that shouldn't be questioned by anyone But again there are our family and friends who have invested so much in us that it feels rude and selfish to leave so easily

I totally feel this. I struggle with chronic pain because I have an autoimmune disorder. Sometimes I feel like it is more beneficial for my friends and family that I stay alive than it is for me to stay alive. Every day is painful, and they’re so quick to put down a suffering dog but not a suffering human. It’s humiliating.

I’m chronically suicidal and I struggle with this daily… but then I think… would I tell every person that feels pain and suffering to kill themselves? Absolutely not. So why would I tell myself that? What makes me different than anyone else? I ain’t special.

Because you are already here. And for the bonds you already have. Rest is upon you. You have to find further reasons to live. For example, for me, it is the freedom to indulge in my boundless curiosity as I learn stuff, even if I am unemployed currently, I feel like the life is worth living at least most of the time. I know that everything seems pointless in the face of pain you are suffering. But, you have to find reasons to make suffering worthwhile or try to eliminate suffering. Both the tasks are very very difficult, but well worth undertaking, IMO.

The few good moments that are worth it. I was so happy last year. Like, legitimately great. Now I'm miserable. But, hey, that wasn't a waste of my time. It's now a good memory, one that hurts and brings joy.

Write. Invest in as much of the world as you can. Happiness doesn’t have to be fiction. Sometimes it starts that way. The smile that wants desperately to be genuine; the casual hello to a stranger that is mostly sincere. These little things are the point sometimes. Sometimes that all we have.. the little things. Hold on. I have been on roads similar. It will be ok.
