Sometimes I think the hole world or at least america Racism sexism Hate everyone is on social media there is just no point It some times makes me want to commit sucide
... the hole world, huh?
Sorry, I couldn't resist. I can understand feeling suicidal to be honest, but I want to say that I can't understand being suicidal about these issues in society, or rather that is my knee jerk reaction. However, it's probably understandable that a person could be depressed about everything that is wrong with society, but I certainly don't think it's worth taking your life over.
I don't want to invalidate you or your feelings in any way, but I do think it's would be like letting all the jerks in the world win if you were too end your life over the the perceived evil in this world.
I've been struggling with deep depression and some suicidal feelings after all the awful drama that has found it's way into my life since hurricane Harvey first popped up on the weather radar. As much as I struggle I know from a cognitive standpoint that all of these things are not worth the loss of my life even though I just don't want to be here many days. I had to have a biopsy on a lesion in my left nostril this morning and it freaked me out so bad that I almost pasted out. I'm just glad it's over and I hope that damn thing isn't cancerous.
I feel kinda like jerk mentioning my biopsy, but I guess the thing is that I know I still want to live on certain level. I certainly hope you still want to be here too. I think you ought to live your life in spite of all the jerks in the world, because you're probably a very sensitive person, and this awful world is probably better with more people like yourself in it.
Maybe you are an empath. Maybe you're like sponge and you pick up vibrations from everything around you, and it sometimes it just sucks the life out of you?
I really feel you. I suggest doing these things:
1. Get help if you're actually suicidal, please.
2. Take a break from the news, social media, etc.
3. Surround yourself with good people.
4. Find a way to do some good. Volunteer at a charity, or even just educate yourself so you can educate others later.
5. Try to turn your sadness into anger. Anger, unlike sadness, is an action fueling emotion. If you're angry about injustice, you're more likely to take a stand and change things, and you don't project the suffering of the world inwards.
The world sucks but it's also the greatest thing ever, and there's so much you haven't seen yet that would amaze you.
I totally agree with you, the world can be a horrible place ..
But there is a lot of beauty worth living for ..
If everybody who felt this way committed suicide the world truly would be doomed ..
Go on an adventure or a walk somewhere nice and just take a time out away from everything :)
It has gone to shit. Especially since 9-11. It's all downhill from here on out.
It certainly has. The 50's were really innocent days. Now we have school shootings, high unemployment, gangs and murders, high crime rate most of it drug related. You can't walk the streets in most cities alone anymore for fear of getting mugged. Yeah society in America has got pretty low from what it used to be.
I agree. America is in deep shit. What with all the immigrants coming in that have no right to be here, the economy sucks, more people on welfare than working, mass shootings and crime in general is out of sight. I could go on and on.
You sound like a concerned, good person. Don’t give up. We need all the good people to keep trying to make the our society better and to vote. We can’t let the minority of assholes win by out working us.
Everyone is so bloody racist now. I was at work with two friends and they were telling themselves they would NEVER date a black person or Indian.
We are all unique in our own special ways. Some people just dont get it. :(
You could see a black girl walking down the street looking exhuasted and just presume ' Im better and more accomplished than HER', but maybe she is a nurse with 3 kids and more accomplished than you… while you work retail shifts 9-5 some days of the week.
~ And do remember this, it took 3 black woman to get America's first man to orbit the earth 3 times, and it took 95 years later for them to be recognized( which is shit in my case...it took 95 YEARS ……)
The world does have a lot of bad things happening in it, but it also is full of good. Most people tend to only focus on the bad, and news channels always report the bad. It's easy to be convinced that the world is a terrible place, because all you hear about are the bad things that are occurring around the world. https://www.goodnewsnetwork.org Try to look for the good ☺️
with anonymity come honesty , you just cant handle the truth. you are week and no man.
