I Have Random Thoughts

So, back on EP I used to mainly post because I didn’t really know how to express my feelings to others by speaking, I could only do that by writing and I found it really really helpful. I decided I’d do it again and see how it’d make me feel.

Back then I used to be a really dark person, I had no friends, no interests, nothing to keep my mind off of thinking about suicide. The only way I could feel better was by inflecting pain on myself, physical pain.. just to be able to forget the mentally devastating pain.

But with time I got better and as the years went by I stopped harming myself. I made some really good friends and I rarely had thoughts about suicide. Or at least I’m convincing myself that I was better.. maybe all that was just a fake face I wear to fool the public and my own into thinking I am a happy person.

Lately, I started losing all those people I had, the people closest to my heart 💔 but being busy with school makes me think about this stuff less.. during the weekends, it hits again. I try my best to avoid them but they just keep coming back.. all of the bad things that once happened to me, they come back and hit me all at once!!!

Lately, all I’ve been wanting is to just stop living... to just sleep and have no dreams and to not wake up ever again
You know the saying about crabs in a bucket...if one starts to escape, the rest pull it back down to wait to be dinner.

Bad feelings are like that. Illness (addiction, depression) can only exist in us, and they don't want to die. They do everything they can to pull us back into the bucket.

I suggest you a) do things you like to do. b) get out of bed and shower, eat breakfast, DO something. Anything. Go to an animal shelter and look at the animals. Go to the library and find a new interest. Explore your city by bus. Take a long walk. Go to stores you've never been to. You don't have to buy anything, just see what there is.

Stay in control of your life and avoid the bucket of crabs. Be interested in things. That will make you interesting.

You’re absolutely right!! I will try that, but mostly, since I’m an engineering student I can barely find the time to go out.. I either work on assignments and homework till it’s late to leave the house or I’m just not in the mood. But I will try to do what you suggested. Just the thought of doing those things makes me feel better.
Thanks!! @Mamapolo2016
@LonelySoul It works for me. ((Hugs))

I hope it works for me as well!! Thanks again!
*hugs*
Mamapolo is right. Basically we need to feel we can still be free. When obligations are overwhelming we need to feel like a child again and discover things on our own.

I feel the same way. I’m nothing but a sad puppet

@Lilnonames it’s not about who stays in my life anymore.. it’s about me managing to stay alive!!
