I’m waiting to die

I’ve got my suicide method prepared and I’ve looked at it every single day since. I’ve wasted the last 15 years of my life battling my mental illness. All the medications and hundreds of hours of therapy haven’t helped me in the long term.

My whole life I’ve been unwanted and unloved. My parents treat me like a responsibility or an object and not like their daughter. They treat me like an extension of themselves and whenever I’ve tried to be my own person they shut me down. My deadbeat father has choked me and physically abused me in the past. My alcoholic mother has told me to kill myself once before.

I have nearly no friends and I’ve never had a successful romantic relationship. Again and again I get ghosted and abandoned. I don’t know if it’s because I’m ugly or socially awkward or whatever. But after dealing with it for so long, I’ve decided to accept that I am unwanted and not needed by anyone.

All my life I’ve only been pulled towards death and I’m done fighting it. I’m going to make sure my younger sister is taken care off first and then I’m killing myself.

Imagine being 42, and not having a true long term relationship :( You are only 28, please do not be hard on yourself!!! And... I know abuse very well from family, and it is NOT your fault. You are not unwanted, or unloved. It could FEEL that way, but feelings are not facts. as my fave. author, Byron Katie, says, we are LOVE ITSELF. And you are too Zaun. You are not an object. You are not an extension of anyone. You are you, and you are worth life, and worth love. Thoughts will lie to us, and say 'oh no, you are worth nothing. b/c of this or that'.. My mind has done it soooo much. And it is a HELL. But I'm finally seeing little by little, is that TRUE? That I"m so so bad that I don't deserve what everyone else gets or deserves ??? Well, abuse and trauma made me believe I am worth nothing. But I am looking back and seeing, Was I truly worth Nothing???? No. And that goes for you. You have a mind and a heart and are simply a Worthy person, PERIOD. 🪻
