(14 male) Recently and at some points in the past I have just felt tired of living, in the past I thought about suicide but I was scared of the pain and if it didn’t work. I have a caring family and friends, but I just feel like I can’t talk to anyone, if I were to tell my parents they would then probably take away my rifle which would make everything worse (I never have access to it’s ammo) and they might take away my guitar to prevent me from breaking it. I don’t feel like I can talk to my friends because I feel like they would see less of me. And I try playing video games but that just makes everything worse. I just feel trapped, I want to talk to someone. I don’t even really feel much emotion anymore and can’t even cry. It’s too much. On top of all this people will ask me why I don’t cut my hair or they tell me I look like a girl just because I have long hair, but I don’t cut it because I like it.

You are young, man. You have a lot to live for, and a life ahead of you. Trust me. You are loved. I know it doesn't feel like it. But you are. I know you are. I'm 23 years old, and still recovering from what happened to me. I still feel the same. Hopeless, like no one cares. But people do, it's just your brain telling you that. When I'm depressed I specifically keep myself away from any weapons, I urge you to do the same. All of us are here for you. I just met you, and I care for you already. I care for you man. Trust.

Well you don't have to give up on what you enjoy just put it down for a bit, until you feel your mental state is stable

#

Well you mentioned you might quit it, so that's why I was asking you

viscid cloak
#

No I might quit because I’m bad at it and just don’t feel like doing anything anymore

#

At this point I find myself getting angry at the even the most minor inconvenience

eager sedge
#

Yea, that's depression for ya. It's gonna happen...

viscid cloak
#

I’m not so sure if I should talk about my other stuff

#

It’s… bad

eager sedge
#

Yea yikes be careful. If it's too sensitive id recommend a 1 on 1 with someone yk? Ask in venting. And I do apologize, I was checking my journal. I wrote a lengthy story lol. You don't want to trigger others so, maybe sensor it with bars || before and after the sentence and give a trigger warning.

viscid cloak
#

Oh

#

😐

eager sedge
#

Hey no need to be down about that man, it's just out of respect. But it's your journal! So do as you please actually PeepoHeart

viscid cloak
#

Whatever I don’t really have what it takes to do all that

eager sedge
#

Hey man, I can sense the tension. It's okay. Sorry if I triggered you. Truly. I'm still learning how to be sensitive to other problems. But like i said, if you want to share it here go for it yk?

viscid cloak
#

You didn’t trigger me I’m just unhappy

eager sedge
#

It's okay. Me too.

#

I haven't been happy in months

viscid cloak
#

Sounds about right

eager sedge
#

The good news is man, you are so young. Imagine being like this while having to maintain adulthood. It's not easy. I got to pay bills, always consider my future. I know it's easier said than done. Trust me... My journey began when I was 17. I know how hard it is to just enjoy life. But you got so long ahead of you. Truly. Enjoy your younger years while you have them

What do you enjoy in life brotha, I should have asked. What brings you joy

viscid cloak
#

I feel like nothing anymore

#

Video games don’t, tv doesn’t , guitar don’t

eager sedge
#

Yea, I feel that. Definitely. If you had the choice, what would you reach for? If you could feel joy

viscid cloak
#

Idk but my relay ups again

#

I’ll continue in about 10-20 minus

eager sedge
#

Alright, np

viscid cloak
#

I’m back

eager sedge
#

WB homie

viscid cloak
#

Finally get to go home to do nothing

viscid cloak
#

@eager sedge have you ever thought about ||offing yourself?|| if you don’t mind me asking

eager sedge

eager sedge
#

||Collin. Zane. And family.|| I physically can't. Or id be completing the deadly cycle I went thru. When i say those names. ||They are the names of 2 fine gentlemen who took their lives because of the narcissistic abuser|| that I had to face. Sorry, not tryna make it all about me. Just feels like it needs slight context.

viscid cloak
#

Yeah no problem

eager sedge
#

I promised those 2 guys, id live for them

viscid cloak
#

But also nice

eager sedge
#

Imagine how I feel homie. She did all that damage and I'm still alive. I can't explain it, I feel angry in a way? I said to myself once or twice it should have been me. Idk, I just hate suffering ya feel? But yea. They can live through me. For sure.

#

It's like, going through hell with your 2 buddies. Only you make it out alive

# viscid cloak That’s tough I’m sorry

It's alright. I'll heal for them, live my life. I appreciate your sympathy bud. If you ever feel like reading the full story, it's in the list of journals. Yea I don't wish death upon other people either, just revenge. Wish for her to suffer as the 3 of us did.

#

I should add it's quite long

eager sedge
viscid cloak
#

I guess my reasons are that,|| i would be scared about if it would hurt or if i would survive, ||wouldn’t want to leave my parents hurt because they work all week for me and my siblings and have to drive 4 hours a day, and|| I wouldn’t really want to cost them all the money||

eager sedge
#

The first reason is a really good one. Completely practical. Second, we don't even have to think about that because it ain't gonna happen homie. If I can go thru what I went thru, and make it out alive, bruised but alive, you got this g. This will pass. Just like my trauma will pass. There's no timing healing though. could take a while. But, as long as you exist and are surviving, congrats you are doing better than everyone else. You know how rare you actually are despite sharing the planet with billions of people?

#

There's one planet in the whole universe that you occupy. And this planet like us has seen hell. Been reborn many times. And the conditions are picture perfect. We have an atmosphere. We are protected by it. And here you and I are, existing. On this lovely planet. Alive. At the very least.

viscid cloak
#

I don’t know man it’s just hard, I don’t want to deal with the thoughts, I’m starting to feel more and more like I should do it, you know?i ain’t going to but.

eager sedge
#

I'm glad to hear that. It's okay to live on the edge sometimes. I do it too. You are the most important part of your whole existence. Without you there would be no you. Sometimes the thoughts creep in. But, we have something wrong in our brains. Remember that. Its not just you, but you could have a condition yk? Look at me I got a whole slew of em. And I even forget that sometimes

viscid cloak
#

, it doesn’t help that I can’t even trust one of my friends anymore, which has led to me starting to not trust any of my friends let alone anyone, I have started becoming aggravated and angry at my other friends for the smallest of things and I feel terrible.

eager sedge
#

I was the same way back then. Have you tried explaining yourself or talking to them about it?

#

Or is this feeling you have causing you to feel like you can't trust them

viscid cloak
#

Not really, I feel like they will just tell everyone if I tell them

eager sedge
#

Hmmm. Well, maybe they aren't your friends then yk? It's important that you can confide in them

viscid cloak
#

Yeah I guess, I don’t think they would but I have lost trust in almost everyone because of family stuff and stuff with friends

eager sedge
#

It definitely happens. I hardly talk to any of my family as well

viscid cloak
#

It’s specifically my brother, I have grown to hate him because In my younger childhood he would lie to me and steal and now he just doesn’t listen to me when I ask him to do anything and he still sometimes lies

eager sedge
#

Sounds like he's got his own problems too

viscid cloak
#

Yeah

#

Have you ever gotten so angry at the small things you ||harm yourself||?

eager sedge
#

Well, id say I did it once. ||It was because I needed to feel something|| never out of anger tho

viscid cloak
eager sedge
#

Problem is I liked it. And. I promised I'd never do it again.

viscid cloak
#

I would specifically ||bite down very hard on the meaty part of my pointer finger until I stopped feeling angry||

viscid cloak
viscid cloak
#

Well my phones about to die so I’ll talk in like 10 mins maybe less

I’m back

eager sedge
# viscid cloak What was it like liking it?

Well, when you are driven near insanity in my case. It felt good, because I was deprived of love and comfort. So, the pain was my way of feeling something. Man. Watch who you give access to your emotions my guy. I regret it. I can't recall if I ever showed her or not. I think I did.

#

Left one hell of a scar. Which I think is actually gone now

viscid cloak
eager sedge
# viscid cloak Man that sucks

Yea man, it's not a competition but I feel the darkness I am dealing with is worse. I don't wish it upon anyone. Especially you my guy. Everyone gets their heart broken once. It should have never been to that extent.

viscid cloak
#

Mine is nothing compared to yours

eager sedge
#

But like I said it's not a competition. You are still dealing with things yk?

viscid cloak
#

Idk why but I have a tendency whenever I have a ||achy tooth or I bit my fingernail too short to mess with the spot that’s hurting until I can’t bear the pain anymore|| I don’t understand why I do it, I just have a urge and I guess ||the pain doesn’t bother me until it gets to be too much||

eager sedge
#

ADHD maybe? Might be the only thing you can focus on

viscid cloak
#

Maybe

#

I can’t really say || if I like the pain, but I guess I don’t really dislike it||

eager sedge
#

Could be that it makes you feel slightly alive. Who knows, you might have a slight affinity for pain like me. I can say that when rose smacked me angry, or joking, I liked it. Because, It was better than not being touched. Quite sad it is. And I still slightly like pain to this day, physical. God. Mental pain I can't stand. Never catch a break. A part of me might inflict it because it shows me that others are suffering too, and I sort of enjoy it. But I don't really though. Otherwise I'd become her. Take it from me homie. Feel free to use my experiences. Even if we don't share the same. What you are going thru is rough. But I went thru hell. And I pray that you don't have to go thru that. And that this is only a bump in the road for ya.

viscid cloak
eager sedge
#

Weird thing but have you ever tried eating spicy stuff?

eager sedge
#

That works for me fr

viscid cloak
#

There is also a correlation between when I started feeling unhappy and when I wanted to join the military and go off to war

eager sedge
#

Like if I want to feel some sort of pain, and put myself thru it. Spicy stuff

viscid cloak

And I still kind of feel that way, I guess ||I just wouldn’t have the guts to do it to myself ||

eager sedge
#

And neither do I. And that's okay.

#

That's good you can admit that

viscid cloak

viscid cloak
#

A random though I just had is that ||I had never harmed myself with a knife because I’m scared of sharp things, especially needles||

viscid cloak
eager sedge
#

Then that works in your favor

viscid cloak
#

I guess || but it also doesn’t because I’m not really scared of guns because I assume it would be painless||

eager sedge
#

We should be scared of ||dying|| in general. That's what makes us human, ya feel?

viscid cloak
#

One time ||I was rather close to my tipping point and was almost going to think of a plan||

eager sedge
#

Yea I did think of a plan. But, it was going to be peaceful. ||I was gonna get lost in a forest. I hoped no one will find me. Hopefully starve||

viscid cloak

#

Anything you want to talk about? I’ll listen

#

A morbid thought I have sometimes is ||is death like sleeping? If so then I wouldn’t mind too much||

eager sedge
#

Yea sleep is very peaceful tbh. You wouldn't even know. And tbh I feel like I've given the narcissist enough attention today. I just hate being left with the pieces I have to pick up. Then all the sudden, wham. I decide to become sober. My brain is like "we are going to process all of that, right now" so 1.5 years later in struggling with CPTSD and it's gonna be hard to find a relationship. Fr.

viscid cloak
#

Also on a side note I have had a cough for two months, so I will randomly have a coughing fit and not be able to breath for 1 or 2 seconds, it’s weird, but I don’t really dislike it

eager sedge
#

You just promise me something homie. and I'll promise you something. Now I'm living for Collin and Zane, but you got to live for you and promise me you won't do anything, you know what I mean? Realize you are still young. I'm actually jealous that your issues are all you have to deal with. This damn near sucks. Even if it's hard. Live. Exist. And I shall do the same. For me. For Zane. For Collin.

viscid cloak
eager sedge
#

I believe in ya. I'll take that.

#

Remember. The edge is okay. Not off the edge

viscid cloak
#

Is it normal to always feel tired?

eager sedge
#

Depression!

viscid cloak
#

Mm makes sense

eager sedge
#

I was like that too, it was the first time I experienced it. Damn I was tired as hell

viscid cloak
#

I also can’t get may dang hands warm which sucks

eager sedge
#

I've had depression before but damn I was exhausted

eager sedge
viscid cloak
#

And my beds next to a wall heater

eager sedge
#

Yea you aren't too far from me. Jersey here

viscid cloak
#

Oh cool

eager sedge
#

My feet. Are cold as hell

viscid cloak
#

Damn opposites

eager sedge
#

True lol I didn't think of that

#

Id rather take cold hands 🤣

viscid cloak
#

Can I send you some pictures in your dms?

I fell asleep a couple hours early last night and I don’t even remember falling asleep and I was woken up by my parents arriving home around 10pm, I fell back asleep about 10-15 minutes later and felt cold the entire time, I have noticed that I have started to sleep in the fetal position, I feel tired even with the extra sleep.

viscid cloak
#

I feel tired and it’s the middle of the day

#

Also was hungry but couldn’t eat because I i just didn’t feel like it

#

Also have had this nervous/anxious feeling in my stomach all day

Started grinding my teeth which is not helping the three that already hurt, I guess I’m doing it because they hurt

eager sedge
#

Yea that's not good, don't wanna lose those lol. I know that when I'm on my meds I tend to clench them together or, move my jaw constantly

viscid cloak
viscid cloak
#

Not like I have anything else to do unless I just watch tv

eager sedge
#

Eh well try to let it come naturally. The last thing you want is a habit that can spiral into something, yk?

#

Try to eat something which should trigger a little comfort in ya, then try to take a nap

viscid cloak
#

My mind just hurts, not physically but mentally

eager sedge
#

Understandable homie. Maybe you should try to reach out to a doc, see if your parents will take you. Or, if you can hold out. At 16 years old you won't be denied to see one on your own. Depends on where you are from

viscid cloak
#

I just don’t trust anyone to not tell others, and I don’t trust a professional to not tell my parents

eager sedge
#

Well at that age they can't. I don't believe. And if you see a therapist they can't break the law. There's a confidentiality law in place for that homie. We have to take steps forward to get better. The tired part is gonna eat at you until you find a solution. Then it spirals into more anxiety because eventually all you want to do is sleep and when you wake up, you don't want to be awake.

viscid cloak
eager sedge
#

No, you will just be honest about your thoughts

viscid cloak
eager sedge
viscid cloak
#

I’m going to try to let it pass like it did a year ago

#

But seeing as it came back idk if it will

eager sedge
#

Maybe it will. You never know brotha. There's a difference between having those thoughts and expressing them vs actually being serious about it. I'm sure therapists can tell the difference

viscid cloak
#

I don’t want to worry my parents

eager sedge
#

That can't always stop you from getting the help you need, not fair to you

viscid cloak
#

Well I also don’t want anything else to come out of that

#

Not the only thing I don’t want

eager sedge
#

And parents are always gonna worry yk?

viscid cloak
#

Yeah but I guess I’m just scared to go

#

I feel like I shouldn’t be unhappy because I don’t have a bad life but I’m just sad

#

Still got the terrible thoughts too

eager sedge
#

Yea me too that's why I'm kinda keeping to myself ATM

viscid cloak
#

Oh alright

#

No problem

viscid cloak
#

Got the shakes from my hunger

viscid cloak
#

And a headache from something

#

@eager sedge hi if your able to talk, if not don’t feel like you have too.

viscid cloak
#

I’m going to try to eat something

#

Haven’t eaten for 8 hours and it’s given me a headache and made me dizzy

eager sedge

I’m took some melatonin and now I feel… weird

#

It’s kind of a good feeling

#

Less lonely feeling

#

Do you know the smell of those melatonin pills?

#

It’s like a earthy burnt kind of smell

eager sedge
viscid cloak
# eager sedge Yes

I don’t have like thoughts in my head jts kind of jsut like. Have static in my head, I hate it

viscid cloak
#

I almost hope I don’t wake up

eager sedge
viscid cloak
#

I appreciate it

#

Would probably cry to sleep but I just can’t

#

Good night

#

I have to wait for the other melatonins to kick in

viscid cloak
#

I’m starting to dislike sleep because it’s so peaceful and then I suddenly have to go back to my life

viscid cloak
#

You awake?

viscid cloak
#

I woke up and just sat in bed for like 5 minutes again, I don’t know why I just do. The melatonin helped me sleep better and more peacefully, I still just can’t shake the feeling that something’s wrong though.

Yeah I ate break fast

#

Lunch is in an like an hour and a half

#

Got anything on your mind? I’m bored

eager sedge
#

Nothing except taking a nap lol, and just relaxing after work. Which is a good thing. I'm giving myself the power to deny that woman access to my mind.

I actually ate something for lunch today

I don’t want to go to rifle practice today

But I don’t want to get kicked off

well it's not really about that man, I was implying a deeper message, your lucky my dude, you have things many others do not, and while life may suck at the moment trust me it's temporary, just find something to pour your heart into and distract yourself and you'll get thru it all
