"let me clean my room"

Hi, I'm 22.

Everyday I wake up feeling.. out of it, not in control, sad, my life is plain and simple and I find myself isolating myself in my room more and more, work is a drag and I can't get the courage to explore, I have this constant thought of everything would be easier if I just up and left. i've tried multiple times.. ending it, but never been successful.. when I'm alone I get the encouragement to do it, like today is the day, I'm gonna clean my room, and leave, but I have this fear, everything I've amounted to would be for nothing. my life would be just a bedroom, car and some photos, nothing more, and the fear id be forgotten haunts me, am I scared? am I wrong for not being in control of my own actions? I don't know..
I don't feel like I used to, since I was 15 I've been like this, never being able to overcome it. this feeling of unworthiness, emptiness and sadness.
at this point I'm just rambling. I'm sorry. I just don't have anyone who'd listen properly.

I just wanna leave.

Hi cra5y,

Wellcome to our forums!

Im sorry you are feeling this way.

I understand all of these feelings would feel very overwhelming.

Things can get better for you.

I highly recommend that you make an appointment with your gp and discuss the way you have been feeling with them.

You could do a mental health plan together this will enable you to see a psychologist.

Hang in there
