Life is so fucking depressing

I quit my job because a few months I paid for a sercuity course and got a job. Holy honestly just been wanting to shoot myself for years. What's the point? Have kids become everything society wants them die. I'm female and don't have kids but a year ago I had a problem with alcohol and now I still drink it but only on days off. I'm quitting and unable to get a guys contact info because I got sexually involved with him(I slept with him inside of his bosses office and we were both locked in). After if I quit will I run into an ex, I wonder if he still wants me.
In about 20 years robots and other things might be so advanced that I would be forced to go to school just to keep working because I have no skills. Should I just call into work drunk again or just buy a dam gun and shot myself?

      Everytime you say that I remember when I was first medicated for depression, and anxiety back in college. The medications helped, and still do help, but my most current therapist has been of enormous help.

        What does your therapist do or say to help?

          We do cognitive behavioral therapy. We also did a specific type of CBT called STEPPS (Systems Training for Emotional Predictability and Problem Solving) which is similar to DBT.

          Another thing that really helped me personally was to work on my relationship with my Higher Power

            I did CBT with a therapist once for adhd and trich. I take meds for the AHDD but I dont remember much of the CBT. I could really benefit from it now for sure

    Look at the glass half full, before you do something drastic and hurt your loved ones. Therapy may help.

      Why is it that everyone has to worry about how OTHERS feel?

        Because, and it really bears no explanation, the only thing that really matters in this existence is human contact and relationships. If you’re so damned cynical that you believe otherwise, sell all you possessions and go live the life of a hermit monk somewhere.

          Buzz off. Human contact and relationship do not matter and I don't have to be cynical in order to believe that. Oh, and human contact doesn't mean you have to constantly cater to others feelings.

    Pfff join the line pal.

    My joy in life is outliving all the ungrateful as fuck people such as yourself that cant take 2 seconds to enjoy the amazing experience we call life and have the mental comprehension to think beyond our immediate situation.

    That being said it can be alot to handle and the occasional bout of existential dread is completely normal.

      ah yes the best way to talk someone out of suicide: calling them ungrateful and shaming them

        Who said I was talking them out of it? I'm not saying do it either. Completely neutral. There are thousands of people who want to live another day yet some people dread about living another day for petty reasons. Some legitimately do have good reasons to self terminate. It's a minority but nothing yells freedom like the ability to kill oneself however quickly or slowly you want.

          Life isn't really all that when you really think about it.

            It really is when you think more about it.

    Don't be so hard on yourself. Life is beautiful. Depression is curable. Lean on family and friends. Talk to your doctor

            So theres no cure for depression what a daisy you are.

            Friends, family, doctors, drugs, doing shit that makes you happy. That's pretty much all the corners covered on the how to make depression less shitty equation.

              I didn't say there wasn't a cure dickhead. Although, things do not always get better. The person that posted this comment is like everyone else who makes depression out to be something that can always get better. And family and friends are not always helpful. Neither is talking to doctors.

    "...Hold on, if you feel like letting go

    Hold on, it gets better than you know

    Don't stop looking, you're one step closer

    Don't stop searching, it's not over

    Hold on..."
