I have been feeling quite depressed for some time and feel as though I am at my end of holding on to hope. Every day I cry multiple times and just don't want to be near anyone. I have never self harmed before but I feel myself over and over contemplating death and questioning if I would have the will power to die by myself. I just feel stupid and that I don't want to live this lie anymore. I don't think anything I am hoping for will come true and I don't know if there is anything I am still looking forward to. I wish I could be away from everyone. I don't want to keep waking up to this life anymore. I cant'.

It's hard existing, and waking up everyday wishing you didn't. I'd give you a hug if I can and tell you that you're really amazing for even existing this long. It's really damaging to not have anything keeping you tied to this world. And having anything to look forward to and everything feels like nothing. I do hope you get to feel happy again even if it's in tiny bits and you can find something to live for.

I had very bad couple of days and my son took my keys and showed up like every hours and today I called the 131114 lifeline and after I started talking I slowly stopped crying and started getting tired. I think it might work for me talking. It might work for you guys to. Please just try it.
