It's true. People consider it selfish, or cowardly, but they don't have a damn clue how hard shit is.

@LordShadowfire precisely..this is why i wont keep a gun in my house, even as protection. i do not have faith in myself to not use it on myself when my depression is that bad. my family has turned on me, so yeah..i get extreeeemely lonely and wonder the point of anything at all. if anything, i am selflessly missing them, and they have alienated me. but im sure if i ended my own life, they would merely use it to bolster their already nefarious opinions of me.

@foldedunfolding People say stupid shit like "Oh, just don't have those thoughts," or "Don't feel that way," as if those feelings are less valid than feeling angry or sad. It's already been established that stuffing your thoughts and feelings is a stupid way of dealing with them, that never works. The best way is to just explore the underlying thought process that gets you there.
