things changed

2020-04-17 22:48:11 UTC  

my family changed a lot since then

2020-04-17 22:48:39 UTC  

and I really hate getting older

2020-04-17 22:49:19 UTC  

as I said, sounds dumb. But when you suffer from anxiety, everything looks like a nightmare

2020-04-17 22:50:33 UTC  

The best thing you can do then is to push till your that age and the same, and I understand but do you mind me asking what you relapsed with? alochol, drugs, cutting? if not its cool

2020-04-17 22:51:09 UTC  

alcohol

2020-04-17 22:51:09 UTC  

I dont have anxiety but I had deoression real bad as a tee

2020-04-17 22:51:21 UTC  

Sorry

2020-04-17 22:51:46 UTC  

I mean, I use alcohol to feel ''better''

2020-04-17 22:52:17 UTC  

I suffer from a high degree of anxiety and depression

2020-04-17 22:52:27 UTC  

weeks ago I was feeling better

2020-04-17 22:52:42 UTC  

dunno how to put it

2020-04-17 22:54:26 UTC  

I get that. alcohol helps make you feel better. The important thing is that your not beating yourself up over relapse, shit happens and ya gotta keep truckin

2020-04-17 22:54:47 UTC  

Shit changes sometimes its good sometimes ya aint

2020-04-17 22:56:13 UTC  

but it changed to the worst

2020-04-17 22:58:01 UTC  

That happens and you cant blame yourself for it, its not your fault

2020-04-17 23:03:19 UTC  

How long was it?

2020-04-17 23:03:58 UTC  

Since your last one?

2020-04-17 23:14:07 UTC  

couple of months

2020-04-17 23:14:33 UTC  

besides the panick attacks I had 4 months ago

2020-04-17 23:16:52 UTC  

Ok so your making progress, you cant quit anything cold turkey, relapses are to be expected. Your current goal should try to go as long as you can and keep pushing that time longer and longer. its not your fault

2020-04-17 23:18:53 UTC  

Good job btw

2020-04-17 23:26:54 UTC  

I called the suicide hotline years ago

2020-04-17 23:27:06 UTC  

wish I don't have to do it again

2020-04-17 23:27:32 UTC  

most of my time I ask myself what is the point of living

2020-04-17 23:27:41 UTC  

Some say I should so I take care of others

2020-04-17 23:28:09 UTC  

but whats the point?

2020-04-17 23:28:47 UTC  

do I have to wake up every single day to just live and suffer?

2020-04-17 23:30:02 UTC  

Do you want to know what doesn't make me commit suicide?

2020-04-17 23:30:21 UTC  

I was about 15 when my friend told the guidance counceler that he thought I was gonna kill myself. I went there and found out I didnt need to be there. Since then I have fought day in and day out to keep going but what helps me is I found porpuse, I dedicated myself to something greater then me so while I may not make it into the history books I now I make a difference.

2020-04-17 23:30:22 UTC  

So I can see my family and friends

2020-04-17 23:30:29 UTC  

There ya go

2020-04-17 23:30:34 UTC  

I love all so much

2020-04-17 23:30:55 UTC  

But it makes me extremely sad to know I have to say goodbye to them

2020-04-17 23:31:10 UTC  

like I had with my grandfather

2020-04-17 23:31:15 UTC  

It really hurts

2020-04-17 23:31:48 UTC  

Then everytime you get that thought 'why go on living' think of them, think of what you mean to them and what they mean to you and dedicate your life to them and making your own

2020-04-17 23:34:19 UTC  

Dismiss it as soon as it enters your head, thats the hard part, fighting your own thoughts. I joined my local volunteer fire company at 16, started running calls a few weeks later. I live for it, it is my porpuse. My advice, find something to define you wether it be volunteering or building. Find something you can call your own and dive into it

2020-04-17 23:37:49 UTC  

Make your life too important to take away, thats what did it for me, and it took a while, a very long time. But from wanting to end it all 5 years ago, now Im a volunteer firefighter (did some pretty kick ass stuff too, and im very respected there) and im an adult leader for the local cub scout pack, I'm 20 and I've had 10 yr olds tell me they want to grow up just like me.

2020-04-17 23:38:42 UTC  

Find something to love about yourself MORE then you can hate. And honestly i can say I'd miss you if you go too

2020-04-17 23:39:04 UTC
