I…don’t want to live anymore. With each passing day, it becomes more clear that the voice in my head is right.

No one cares about me.

I’m a waste of space.

I’m better off dead.

I’m a pointless existence.

I’m worthless.

I don’t matter.

Everyone already has so many people in their lives, so there’s no point in me being here anyway.

As these thoughts ring through my mind, I know that I should tell somebody. Reach out. But I don’t have anyone to reach out to. There’s no one that will listen. And there’s no one that will understand.

The people I consider closest to me don’t care about me. I don’t matter to them. I’m just an annoyance. A bother. A burden. A nuisance.

The only thing I can do is bottle everything up inside and move forward. It’s painful.

I want to shout. I want to let it all out. I want to cry.

My therapist abruptly resigned and left without saying anything. I’ve bothered my school counselor and friends enough already. I can’t talk to them about this anymore. They’re tired of it. Who am I to call out for help?

These feelings are all I am. I’m nothing more than a hollow and scarred rock. Boring and uninteresting. Seemingly tough on the outside, but weak and pathetic on the inside. Waste that’s just tossed and kicked around.

If I were to die, I doubt anyone would notice. I vanish without a trace all the time. Im always forgotten and ignored. I’m that worthless and useless. I don’t belong anywhere. I doubt I ever will.

I always go unheard. I don’t think I have a voice. No one ever hears me.

I’m a horrible person to be around. These feelings and thoughts are all I am. I’m nothing more. All I can do is say goodbye. I’ve said it so many times that everyone is tired of me saying it. I’ve tried to kill myself so many times but it never worked. It’s an endless cycle of saying goodbye and wanting to die but nothing ever happens. even so, I still want to die. 

I’ve been lied to so many times. I want to hear the truth. My friends keep saying all these things when they don’t really mean it. 

“I need you here.” No you don’t. We rarely talk anymore now. I never meant anything to you. The things you said to me were just empty words. The voice in my head was right. You never cared at all. I chose to believe the opposite, but everything was actually a lie. I gave you chances to be honest, but you chose to lie. You have other friends in your life. You’d be perfectly fine without me, yet you always said otherwise. Even now, you always show how meaningless of an existence I am.

Lies cut deeper than anything. Everyday, I look at the those I consider closest to me…and see that I mean nothing to them. It’s fine if people don’t like me. We have our own feelings. But lies hurt. Everyday, I’m scarred again and again. Deeper and deeper. And it’ll continue forever and ever. Until there’s nothing left of me.

im afraid of sharing my thoughts and feelings because I’m terrible at conveying how I feel.

I don’t blame anyone for anything. Everyone is truly great and I believe everyone will live great lives. 

To everyone that reads this…

I hope you are doing okay. You are a beautiful soul and are deeply loved.

 

*if some parts change, just know I’m editing parts that don’t convey my feelings the way i want them to be. I want my feelings to be conveyed properly. I hope that’s okay.*

    I wish you could stop listening to the voice telling you are nothing. You are someone and have worth. You have a way with words. Just writing this blog shows that. The message is messed up, but that’s because your mind is messed up.

    You’ve obviously been let down by those around you. I’m sorry. That really stinks. Depression is hard and not everyone around you can handle it. Don’t give up. Keep looking for those who can be supportive. But do what you did at the end of your blog: affirm others and lift up those who are as low as or lower than you.

    Hey AP-19, Each day is a new day and another struggle for me.
    ~♥~ 🙂
    I wake up every morning and I repeat this mantra to myself, “one day at a time” , “one day at a time” , “one day at a time” I am dealing with some of the same things you are dealing with, plus some others like being a recovering alcoholic.
    ~♥~ 🙂
    Maybe for you it could be reaching out to someone today and “Try to connect.”… “try to connect” , … “try to connect”? There are people out here who do care about you! I care and feel empathy for you. Please don’t give up, lots of us are struggling, The world is a better place with you in it! 🙂 Please keep sharing your thoughts, ideas and emotions. I want to read what you write. & I can take it.
    ~♥~
    Sending you some compassion, a hug, a smile, peace, hope & prayers – Iris

    I’ve been writing things like this for 20+ years, I relate. I’ve been struggling with abandonment/rejection my entire life, and I’ve developed relational trauma – which most people can’t understand. Countless people that say, “I need you here” but then stop speaking to me as soon as I give the slightest hint I might want my basic needs met.

    Being told by others I’m too….too sensitive, too needy, too depressed, too much. I’m none of those things. I’ve not experienced support, acceptance, belonging. I am having a normal and valid reaction to not being listened to properly. By not being attuned to. By not being validated. By not being understood. By not being supported.

    The thing that took me years to understand, it’s never a voice in my head telling me these things, it’s the actions that those that are giving up on me, rejecting me are taking that I am reacting to. The best thing I can offer you is to listen to YOUR inner voice. If you feel that the things people are saying are not a true reflection of what you need – these are not your people. It still hurts to be excluded, especially when everyone tells you the key to happiness is feeling included – but putting all your energy into people that can’t reciprocate is a waste of your energy.

    You are NOT a horrible person to be around – you are surrounded by people that not only don’t know how to tell YOU the truth, they can’t even face their own truth. They would rather distract themselves with external things than face their own challenges. Find your truth. It’s in you.
