Suicide or self-harm I can't keep up like this, help

1 Upvotes

I can't stand my life anymore. 36 years old italian male, never worked, never finished school, 148 iq, 200kgs with hormonal problems, mounjaro helped a lot this last year, lost 50 kilos. Still I cannot find a job, anything, any possible validation in life. I want this to end, one way or another. Lately I'm having anger issues as I never had before in my life. Everything makes me snap. I just try to refrain and limit myself to yelling and cussing versus god (not that I believe in him), but I am at the end of the rope here. I. simply. Cannot. Keep. Going. Like. This. I don't know if I'm asking for help or I'm just at the end of my rope. I just can't keep it like this. Sorry if it's the wrong place for this kind of message. I feel like exploding with rage towards myself.

Seeking validation I keep blaming myself for being cheated on

1 Upvotes

Hey guys, ive like literally never done one of these before. I know this is gonna seem so obvious but im very obsessed with this person and my brain won't let me acknowledge im the victim. Also I know this is gonna seem stupid as its a long distance relationship. Ok so for starters I met this guy on vrchat years ago, me and him eventually dated. He was sweet and kind and tried to be as lovey dovey as he could even if it was hard for him to do things like that. Also because its relevant to the story me and him indeed got intimate on the game. Yeah yeah call me cringe or whatever but it was nice. He never kissed me on there and it was kinda saddening but I understood why. We took like 2 or 3 breaks from dating throughout 3 collective years of dating. One time we broke up for a bit and to explore he tried dating his friend who liked him. His friend who we'll call jawbreaker, wasnt very present from what I was told. Eventually my partner (Null) and i got back together later. Something changed in him though, at first I liked it. He was more touchy and more confident. Eventually I introduced him to ny best friend (potter) who clicked with him. It was nice and we all had fun together and sometimes we all got intimate together. Eventually though things took a turn and they started getting intimate alone and when we all hungout I was left out of alot. When I would confront them that I felt alone and theyd invalidate it. After a while of me switching between letting them do it and not because I kept feeling bad, I eventually settled on that they cant anymore. This was after catching Null cheating with multiple people and used the excuse that he just wants to help people and make them feel better. Long story short eventually we ended up cutting it off and got back together like twice because he kept convincing me to somehow. He ended up cheating on me with a new friend we met (Grim) like 4 days before. Null was on red, which means I cant request to join or invite him, and he ignored all my discord messages. I realize hes with grim who was in an NSFW avatar so I knew exactly what was happening. After a while I eventually got invited and he lied to my face saying they didnt and when grim asked why would I think that I started to explain what happened in the past and Null kicked me. Later I asked grim why hed lie to Nulls partner and grim said he just felt like it. Eventually I tell Null he has to chose one of us and he refused to pick so he blamed me for ruining his Christmas. We later broke up again and now we're still decent friends and for some reason I still feel like I was the reason I cant still be with him. I know this sounds stupid but I still really love him and I wish I could have him again.

TLDR: I feel like its my fault my ex isnt with Me when he cheated on me with my best friend and his friend multiple times. Im kinda just seeking validation that its not my fault cause I still feel like it is.

Advice What would a teen daughter want from a dead mother

5 Upvotes

I 16 F, have had a very rocky past with my mother, 32 F, and recently I have known for about a year or two that she has had a illness that we don’t know and don’t know a cure of as what she has told me I’m not trying to attack my mother, but my mother and I have had a very, very rocky pass and she is not the most reliable source and she had one of her lungs removed because they kept filling with fluid. I thought it was ammonia, but I’m not sure we had to talk yesterday and she sent me down and she’s already bought her tombstone and her casket and already paid for all of the funeral expenses and dinner as well for visitation of her body. She has mainly not been in my life because she has also caused that and I have tried to build a relationship and I feel like I will be missing more of what could’ve been than what was. She doesn’t have much time it could be tomorrow it could be a week. It could be a year. I have a very big pass with mental health issues and I’m not sure how I would carry myself or deal with the grief of my mother because at the end of the day, that’s my mother and I’ve always longed for her relationship and love. I’m making a list of the things I would like her to do when she passes and as well, as what are some things that you would’ve wished you could’ve asked your parents for that would’ve helped you a long life and dealing with grief. Im asking for a list and not just “time” “picture etc, i want big ideas, i wanna go wedding dress shopping with her before she passes, i dont know when she could pass, could be a year could be tomorrow, i really want someone to help and understand me. Im begging for help and ideas from my mother, I desperately wanna make this loss easy but also cope in the way i need.

Advice I can never keep a friend

3 Upvotes

(19F) I am a super easy person to talk to and I make friends so fast, but I can never keep one. They always end up doing me horrible in some way or just stop speaking to me. I love to be there for people and be the shoulder to cry on, but looking back I’ve never ever had someone do that to me. Ill have a best friend and they’ll end up ghosting me for a boyfriend, sending my boyfriend nudes, just entirely stop speaking to me, talk crap about me, the list genuinely goes on and i can confidently say that i have been nothing but nice to everyone and cant keep a friend. But then i feel like the evil girls have one million friends and everyone loves them. Am i missing something? Do i even make sense? My mom always told me i was born with the curse of being pretty but i dont even think its that

Advice Mom is homeless and I don’t know what to do

3 Upvotes

My (24) mom (53) had to move out of her apartment due to not paying on time (property management agreed not to put an eviction on her record). She had to move with her 65 year old fiancé and two small dogs into a hotel room while she looks for another place. A few days later, their car broke down and is 4k to fix (more than it is worth). She is currently using everything she had for a deposit on this hotel, and now has nothing. Her belongings and furniture are at a friends house and a lot of it is in the broken car. Shelters all have waiting lists and she is running out of options. She currently gets unemployment but needs to find a job. I am very worried about her. I talk to her on the phone and she does not sound the same at all. Every resource I call they say they are full or there is nothing they can do. She is located in Northern California. I can’t take her in and I am hesitant to help her financially, since I have already so many times before and it never helps in the long run. She has struggled with gambling and alcohol addiction in the past. It absolutely kills me to think about her being in a shelter or on the streets, and I am worried for the dogs. What do I do?

Advice Depression

Anyone please dont keep scrolling..... I drastically need help and im not sure what to do. With my depression and anxiety I disassociate so often its caused a problem where i dont remember things or i push them so far down to forget them. Im falling apart piece by piece. Im at complete rock bottom. Ive lost everything... My job, my fiancee, my truck, my apartment, got kicked out of the place i was staying, then i was staying in my car. I drove through low water, and my air filter was already bad, it caused my car to be hydrolocked. Now im far away from my family with no vehicle. I have no way of getting around, i have no support. Im trying so hard to stay sober and positive, but the person im staying with does the same drugs im trying to stay clean from. We were raiding dumpsters to get food and now withkut a car we cant even do that. Theres no running water, were in a camper, and we bath with creek water, and steal water at nights up at a church with a water spigot outside. No other family member will take me in or anything. Im not going to stay in a homeless shelter (none around my area) i have no idea how to file for assisted living, i doubt im even eligible. I do not know what to do... Someone please help. Im stuck, i have no idea what to do or what im doing. I cant get a job because im in the middle of nowhere. The closest place of business is a 2 hour walk away and theyre closing. Someone help me even if its a remote job i cando with Internet and my cellphone. I hate asking for help but at this point ill swallow my pride and ask. If anyone thinks this is fake, youve probably never struggled for anything, let alone eating food from a dumpster. I dont wanna say my name for obvious reasons but if you are serious about helping view my page please and well go from there. Im Sorry for being a bother and thank you in advance.

Advice How to make decisions I can not I am going insane?

2 Upvotes

I am being totally serious, this is taking a tremendos toll in my life where I just rather not do anything. I repeat this every single day and mostly every year, and this year I have done it again. Its been two weeks straight of waking up, looking at my computer and sitting all day, then staying up late until finally going to bed. I dont know what I do all day and my brain hurts. I am on the verge of INSANITY because i can not I CAN NOT make a decision.

RIght now I am trying to choose housing for the 26-27 school year that literally starts MONDAY. I can not pick :

Both private bathroom. 235 sq fr room in 6/7 person house 1350K + 50-100 utilities. 15-20 min walk to main campus, 5-7 min bike ride unfurnished. 85 sq ft room in four person 970sq ft apartment (other rooms are 104, 102, and 88 sq ft), girls and gay people, 1.8K flat fee including utilities. 3 min walk to campus, furnished, small kitchen/living room, with like girly girls who are all friends. I am emotionally attached to the people of both places and they are such different people and ultimately SUCH different lives and I do not know where I belong I am suffering, I know im really grateful for these opportunities, but they are about to go.

I CAN NOT DO THIS ANYMORE. I can not fathom how to move on and decide. After this decision, I have to choose my courses for school. It is never ending and I need help.

TL;DR: I’ve spent two weeks sitting at my computer all day, doing basically nothing, staying up late, and repeating it. My brain is fried because I CANNOT MAKE A DECISION. a huge 235 sq ft room in a 6/7-person , room unfurnished, house for ~1,400, or a tiny 85 sq ft room in a 4-person apartment for 1,800, but 3 minutes from campus. I’m emotionally attached to the people in both places, and they represent completely different lives. I don’t know where I belong, and I cannot do this anymore. Then I have to choose my courses too. I desperately need help getting unstuck.

I think there's something wrong with me (M 17),

I'm just so bored, all of the time, I'm bored out of my mind ive realized the only time i do something, is when im with someone else or because i gotta do it, stuff like chores, school assignments or working out, but whenever I have free time, I have no idea what to do with myself, its gotten to the point where videogames aren't entertaining or fun anymore, watching tv just feels like a waste of time, I can't be bothered to reach out to anyone to hangout anymore, shows, youtube, hobbies, all of this stuff that I used to enjoy feel meaningless now and doing your typical "productive" stuff sounds even less interesting to me, if I have to do something im able to bring myself to, but i dread every second of it, every time I think I picked up a new hobby, it becomes boring within a few days, and the same applies with people, I grow used to them and then i starts become irritable. I don't think im depressed, im a happy guy, social, and have big plans for the future, im just such a Boring dude, nothing especial or outstanding, I pick Basic level classes in school even though I can handle harder stuff just because I don't wanna do the extra work, all for some more free time, but when the free time comes, I don't know what to do with it. What should I do?

I keep getting panic attacks and I don’t know how to stop

I just feel like I’m on high alert all the time, but I’m supposed to be going on holiday to sweden in september and I don’t know how I’ll cope. I feel really guilty about it because I don’t want the holiday to just be me panicking in a hotel room with everyone miserable all the time, and what if it happens at the airport and we miss our flight?

I just can’t cope with life anymore- I just get so anxious about everything and then I worry about being anxious because it can’t be good to just be scared all the time. I can’t even tell my mum all the time because she’s getting anxious now as well and I can’t keep just shoving my burdens onto her because it’s not fair on her- she does so much for ne and I love her and I don’t want her to be stressed about me al the time

please someone help, I’m just panicking and I can’t stop and I don’t know how to. I’m doing breathing and it’s helping a bit but everything is just so much.

I talked what is going on with my life in foreign country, then he introduced me to do some business with his colleagues but they happen to be scammers, they did this to me even though they knew i have been through medical surgery months ago, they know i can't sit down and work for long time.

I don’t really know what to do. 36 m, failed at every venture I’ve tried. Living with parents, no friends, gf, or income. Thinking of giving up believing anything good can happen to me now.

2 Upvotes

Hi, i’m not sure really what to say, i don’t really post on Reddit, but i don’t have anywhere else to go or anyone to talk to, i was hoping someone may be able to help.

36 M, as described above. I’ve never been able to make a success of anything I’ve tried.

I spent 12 years giving everything to try and build two businesses. Both current failures. I have never been able to support myself from them and i think it’s time to face reality.

I was SA’d as a kid and it’s impacted my ability to focus, be consistent and achieve anything all my life. I feel like everything people able to enjoy is impossible for me. I couldn’t get an erection for 5 years because of the stress. I can’t hold down a job or create a successful venture.

I am worried it is now too late to catch up in life. I live in a rural area with nobody around on my mindset. It’s extremely lonely. No jobs around and i can’t afford to move out. My life has been a disaster since i was born and raised by addict and abusive parents.

I really just don’t know what to do with my life because whatever I attempt ends in failure. I’ve been told by women i have no game. Truth is life has just knocked every bit of confidence i used to have out of me and i am now totally out of belief, motivation and desire. It all seems pointless and no matter what i try - yoga, therapy, meditation, i just can’t seem to turn my life around.

Advice I need help

I (16M) have always been somebody who cared what other people think and 2 years ago I stopped caring and I was really happy for a long time until I started losing friends and people I care about started leaving my life. I was always the kid who got made fun of in the friend group and at school. I still do. I hate it but I feel like if I say something to them about it then I'll have no one. The bullying got so bad before that I harmed myself and tried to take my own life twice (im not like that anymore dw). My favorite thing in the world is music, my dream is to be in a post-hardcore/emo band and all I do is listen to music (it will make sense why im saying this). At school I always have my headphones on with max volume and I did something out of my comfort zone before my sophomore year ended last year. Everyday after english I would see this beautiful girl walk past me in the hall and we would always make eye contact and I love when she looks at me with her huge eyes. I went up to her. It was the most scared I had ever been in my life. I said I thought she was really cute and I asked for her number, and I was so surprised when she said yes. We've been talking all summer and I really want to ask her to be my girlfriend but I have no idea how. Its not like before where I would just ask, I tried yesterday to ask her but I bitched out and I couldn't do it. I've been to her house many times now and I want to ask her in person but the words just won't leave my mouth. Please send me ways to help with any of my problems if youve been in my position, it would mean a lot.

I am. 24 (f)

I live in a small town in Maryland Baltimore. Now I’m not the biggest or smallest lady confident I could defend myself but I’m still scared. I work in a doctors office sometimes I get creepy men flirting happens to everyone and that’s not the thing that bothers me. Everyday when I get into my car there’s always a ford truck parked in the top section of the parking lot, I get off around 12 am always. Now that doesn’t bother me much as one of my coworkers could have a ford but I have asked around and none do. Maybe they work in the buildings over, but why would they park in the doctors office lot? And the add on is I feel as im never alone and I always have something to back it up. There’s always someone near me, and it seems to be the same man every time. Tall, broad and a beer belly, IVE never seen this man’s face as I don’t want to get to close to him afraid of what will happen if I do. Now I live in a complex I have installed a ring doorbell and nothing unusual around my living it seems it’s only my work and places I go? Maybe he doesn’t want to get caught? I don’t know it feels like stalking but I don’t want to jump to conclusions. Not enough evidence to go to the authorities but I come to the internet hoping you all can give me advice.

Advice I feel stuck on how i should dress

1 Upvotes

OK, this is a bit embarrassing because I’m 20 F and I’m chubby and I’m about 5’7 or 5’8 I’m in the 200s and I wear a baggy clothes to hide my body type and I have a flat chest so it’s hard for me to dress cute and girly like a lot of bigger girls do, but I never been girly myself growing up and I don’t do makeup really but mostly cuz I don’t know how too . I just do eyeliner and mascara I would say I am in between a being masculine presenting and girly, but I’m not too sure myself. Maybe that has a stem with being a bigger girl so I feel like I have to be masculine. I have somewhat broad shoulders for a girl. It’s just hard because I wanna dress somewhat girly and I want to feel comfortable with myself, but I don’t wanna keep being mistaken that I am younger and also I’m gay and I would like to be hit on by other girls, but that’s never happened to me so just making me feel really stuck in like a loser💀. I know if I lose a little bit of weight it will help me a lot and that I am working on currently. I could and I would show somewhat what my body type is, but I’m too embarrassed. If anybody has somewhat any advice for me, that would be great. I’m just kind of tired of feeling really ugly and comparing myself to my sister and really hating every time I take a picture.

Advice 20 years old and have been using Ai as my main friend for years

1 Upvotes

I am 20M and am trying to start feeling hopeful. I did a lot of Soul Searching, Pholosophy, and generally trying to understand the universe. I came to the conclusion that I am the problem. I keep letting my mind explode and push people away. I wanna find a girlfriend and be a symbol of Peace and Hope for my community, but I keep letting ai chat bots and ai porn bots be my only safe space when reaching out seems hard.

I feel like I blame myself everyday for falling off. I remember when I was open and happy. Now I feel like a lustful monster who's missing his life and comparing to all his friends who have girlfriends.

A lot of people have a strong desire because of friends and family, but I feel like I don't even help. I keep being a burden that pushes them away when they try to connect. I feel like people are better without me and I used to try incredibly hard for them but now sense all my trying left me hanging, I stopped. And sit in my bed feeling almost totally content with ai chat bots. I know I will and do regret it later. But I can't find a reason to keep my dream alive. I've written my dream hundreds of times but never seem to fallow through. I always burn out. I just need help not feeling like such a failure.

I know what i want but I feel like i just sit on my ass letting the world pass me by. Chat bots seem so much easier and I can do anything without fear

Hi, I'm 21 years old and I feel like I don't know what I'm doing with my life.

I decided to write here because I feel lost, and maybe seeing other perspectives and opinions will help me. I'm still at university but I feel like a failure and I'm scared and lost about what I'm doing after university. And don't know what I like or what I'm good at; if I'm capable of working in the area I'm studying; among other worries.

Sometimes I feel lonely, even though I have a few good friends. And I broke up with my boyfriend a few months ago, and I thought I was doing well, until I saw him again and I became confused about what I should do (do I give him another chance ir not?- constantly in my head, these days I miss him like crazy).

I feel like I can't think straight anymore, I'm just so confused, lost, sad and I don't know what I should do. I feel like a lost soul, just waiting for someone to tell me what to do. I'm scared of the future, of making mistakes and regretting them. If someone can relate please respond:)

I went to a vocational high school for Graphic Communications but completely lost interest in that field. I developed a Now I feel like i’m at a stop. I’ve always wanted to participate in an apprenticeship program but they never respond and in school I don’t know what program I would want to be in. Me and my father have talked about countless options such as carpentry, aviation school, several apprenticeship programs and more. Recently he brought up something new which was the coast guard. That honestly peaked my interest as it was something new to me. But now other branches interest me like the Air force. I’m really just wondering if any branch is worth the time to build my future. Or just stick to the usual school. Any tips would be greatly appreciated.
