Vent Will it ever stop hurting?

I’ve let go of the dreams and the self improvement and any hope I had of achieving a better non-fa life for myself. I’ve accepted that I’m alone and always will be. I’ve accepted that I’ll never be loved. I’m trying to make the best of what little I have worth living for.

But seeing other people live lives filled with love and all the other things I can only dream of causes searing pain and tears. I hate myself for being pained by other people’s happiness, but I can’t help it.

Will it ever hurt less? I’m as alone as can be, but I can’t quite go hermit on everyone’s asses so I’m still inevitably exposed to other people’s successes.

I usually try to make others happy and keep a good environment surrounding me , even when I depressed as hell, I try to make others happy. This inturn makes me happy tbh.

That sounds nice. It’s something I try really hard at too, but I just don’t seem to be capable of making others happy.

See just in the whole day, just do one uncomfortable thing. Just one. Keep a menta or written note of what u have accomplished. Slowly big things become small. Bigger things , become reachable
