No one should have to live through what you're experiencing. There are no words I have that can comfort you, nor any gesture that can truly express my feelings of solidarity and sympathy. Would that it were me, instead.

I neither fear, nor despise.
I will never give up. No matter how miserable I am I will not lay down and let this claim me.

That's the spirit! Despite how old you feel, you are quite young.
Don't believe things will never turn around. Say you live to be 80. That's over 50 years from now.
To believe NOTHING better lies ahead in 50 years.......that's just not true.


There is a reward for all the good you've done, and all the struggles you've overcome.
Greater things are coming. Just keep going and you'll get to them.

This is the way the world ends. Not with a bang but a whimper.
I won't pretend to know what you're going through, of course, but having been essentially diagnosed as antisocial--as well as slightly narcissistic and somewhat borderline--I can glimpse a shallow representation of what you're feeling.

Unfortunately, I have no words of consolation to offer to you. But from what I've seen of you--you don't need them. I think you have a tougher character than most others on here and, perhaps, more than you care to admit to yourself. Anybody'd be lucky to know you, whatever mood your in.

I have nothing to offer to you except my good wishes, however little they're worth.

Damn man. Just damn.

I've seen a lot of loved ones go through shit, especially my brother, and damn, this still makes me think about how bad shit can get.

I know that no "I hope you make it" "I think you're a great guy" can help you, which is why I am having a hell of a hard time trying to find what to say.

Honestly nothing will be helpful, which sucks a lot.

All I can say is, give death the biggest god damn fight the world has seen before you the bite the dust.

You know what makes me sick? I'm getting better. It won't be long now before I can get off the treatments. Soon. But while I'm getting better, my head isn't. I'm used to working with injuries and feeling like shit. But my head's always been my weak spot.

It's disgusting really. I'll get better, get stronger, and be healthier again because that's what my body is used to. Up's and downs. But my head won't. It'll linger and eat away at me. Because depression isn't a light switch. And turning it around is never easy.

The first case I had years back, I could use a different form of motivation and improvement to help myself. But now? What is there that I can use as a weapon to fight this? Nothing. And it makes me sick.

I don't want to remember any of these days ever again. I want to forget every last one of them to the dark corners of my mind. And I'll talk to my family because I never want this brought up again. I never want to come back to this and see it ever again.

It sickens me that I'm like this. Day in and day out for months now. And it scares me too. Because I realize how suddenly dependant I've become on having somebody close to me, or wanting somebody close to me. Around a good friend of mine or two I can stabilize.

But as soon as they leave, in any way, I suffocate. It's suffocating and crushing me and I can't tell them that. I can't look them in the eyes and tell them what will happen the moment they leave. The moment I feel that absence again.

Greater things are coming. Just keep going and you'll get to them.

What good things are coming? I can build my home. I can have something to call mine in peace and quiet. But what will I do with my life? There is no reward. Only what I'll try and do. I enjoy writing and it will be a staple of mine as long as I can manage it. I enjoy art of almost any kind and I hope to find a way to outlet that as well.

But there is no reward. Life doesn't give rewards. People do. And people don't give rewards.

I'll have to live through my mother's death. My brother in law's death.

I'll take care of my sister and support her and her daughter because I'll be the only one left who can do it.

But it's a job I'll be doing alone. And this lifestyle, my world, is so far apart from yours that when I say that I'll be alone to do it I know that I'll be alone to do it up here. And none of you will ever understand that because you don't wake up to the world I live in. Things are so far away up here from your lives and comforts and customs.

It's grim but at the same time I take solace in the fact that I'll be there, and that I'm here to help everybody when they need me. But it's a shitty road to travel, with only snapshots, pictures and little moments of happiness along the way.

"Ornate chandeliers suspended from a vaulted ceiling lit the spacious chamber; Jack tilted his gaze overhead and noticed how far away they were.  His thoughts wove around those bright lights, like a dance of ether masses spiraling in precious unison. Why must we try to clutch desperately for the mere threads of this world when we can clasp onto a tapestry of untold magnificence beyond this plane of existence?"
Severe depression destroyed me. I know what you mean in the sense that I wouldn't wish this experience on the biggest asshole on the planet (looking at you Kanye)

Hang in there OP. If you never need a nonjudgemental ear to talk to, I'm always available for a PM.

You know what? I'm just going to use this as a dump. I can dump all my garbage in here with no worries of taking up space. Or causing shit. I'm going to talk to myself because writing puts me at some sort of ease.

In all seriousness, I can't help but feel guilty every time I see you post. It makes any struggle I've ever had feel so insignificant. Your life is harder than I can conceive, and while you obviously have my full sympathy, I just can't empathize with you.

But, whatever. You know that I actually care about you, and I wish you the best of luck. I'm a terrible person, and I haven't suffered nearly as much as a good one like yourself. It's humbling.

Alright, well you know where to find me if you change your mind.

Eh. I won't bother. Being honest here I don't even want any sort of conversation with folks. I don't feel like talking to you on the subject of what's going on here. I just don't want to even fucking bother.

I don't feel like carrying a conversation. Strange though. I made this thread for a reason. Like I said in the OP. I don't want pity or help because it doesn't make a difference anyway and it doesn't change anything. It just ends up being worse for me in that manner.

I'm sleepy right now. Long beyond past any sane time that I should stay up. So why did I make this thread earlier? I don't even remember the reason. But I know what I feel like now.

This is a record. For Quiet, or somebody to look at. Because I don't know if I'll get through this mess this time. It's all sitting on a wire waiting to snap. You can see the strain on it and hear the sound as it stretches and frays. Who knows. Still here for now at least. One day at a time I guess.

I don't know.

You don't have to feel shitty because it's the same boat. There are people out there worse off than me. And pain and feelign shitty is a universal feeling. It's a bad feeling. It hurts no matter what it is, big or small.

Just remember what you stand to lose. Do that for me. Be aware of your life. Be aware of how fragile it is and how it can snap apart so easily. Make your choices and live your life but be aware that anything you do is special in some regard and that it can be taken away on a whim.

I don't rightfully know how I'll put things back together after this. I feel sick to my stomach thinking about it. And I feel sick when I see all these people going about their lives and they never see how fragile it all is. They don't even see what they have, for good, or bad.

Even the bad. Even the bad, is better than waking up to this. Being an asshole, Class, is better than waking up to this rotting prison and my own head which is attacking itself.

I'm aware of it and yet I still can't stop it or even slow it.

I can actually say that I understand what you're going through. This is the first post in a while I can truly sympathize with. I am truly sorry that you're going through all this; it is not enjoyable even in the slightest degree (understatement.)

Its hell. Plain and simple. Suffering, sadness, and death at their core.

No amount of words I type on some internet forum can ease your suffering, but I hope it at least provides you with the comfort that there are people out there other than just those you know offline that care about you. There are two entire websites full of such people. It doesn't mean much, but it means something I suppose.

No, you don't.
Unfortunately the rest of your post was ruined by this one sentence, good intentions or not.

Oh, but I CAN understand what he is going through to a degree. Though our exact circumstances may be different, the end result is the same. Death. I can understand the depression he speaks of; the harrowing and unending darkness and sadness, watching as your mind, body, and very spirit begin to crumble around you, and being helpless to stop it. To truly feel a complete absence of hope. I'm assuming you weren't on B.net when I came clean about a lot of stuff.

Nice to see Dusty boy is being the usual vindictive spiteful same old same old. Not even going to bother with that shit.

And I wake up to this. I wake up, and it feels like I've sunken into my bed and I have to pull myself out of it. Every morning I start this. Every morning I wake up to this. I brush my teeth and stare into a mirror I would rip out of the wall if I could. Come downstairs and go to work for the morning.

Make oatmeal that's as plain water. Take various meds from the doc. I wake up to this shit and what's even worse, there's my mother downstairs. Every morning she says hello and a good morning. And some days I wake up irritated and pissed. And I'm just a few steps off from snapping in the morning.

Telling her that it's not a good morning. No I didn't have a good sleep.

But that's painful to think about. If I ever snapped like that, those words that I'm keeping back from saying would cut like a knife. I can see that on her face. So I say good morning back in the best voice I can manage.

And now I'm here. Where will my day go today? What will I do from here? How will I make this day worth it?

It's a good question with a shitty answer I already know.

No one is being spiteful except for the asshole that's trying to bitch to poor Ktan. Unless you'd like to involve yourself in deeper and deeper shit, you should stop taking hits for your douche bag friend who cannot learn to be decent human being.

So. Sitting here thinking. I made this thread for a reason. And that's because I can't keep it cooped up anymore. I can't keep all of this inside my head. And I don't want to direct any of it on anybody either.

Let's face it.  When you sit down with a sick person and talk to them. It's depressing. And I can go on and on like a broken record because I feel so bad right now. I can't even properly describe it. Bad doesn't do it justice. Horrid. Terrible. Disgusted. Anguish. Rancid. Degrading.

So I made this thread. But I didn't have to. I could just open up a document on my computer. And I could write and fill pages. Like a journal. But I don't want that on my computer. I don't want to be alone. I ask for no pity or help. Yet at the same time I don't want to be alone.

So I made this thread.

People can come in here and say what they please. But this space. This thread. Is mine. It's blank pages are mine. I can talk to walls and ease what's on my mind, while at the same time, passerby will stop and listen. They may say nothing. They may say something.

But in this manner, I don't feel alone.

And this thread means something more. Because one day. One day, I'll be better. No more treatments to take. And I'll have fixed my head and put it back on straight.

And I'll be able to look back at this thread. These days that are wasted, painful, soul crushing. These disgusting days that I never want to remember and I will never speak of again when all is said and done.

And I'll look back on the days that I posted here when I couldn't bear to stay silent through this.

And I'll wipe it clean. Lock it down to the pits of obscurity never to be seen again.

And I'll move on.

I've suffered from severe depression (I was going to be institutionalized at one point) in the past so I can kind of guess what it's like. Let me put emphasis on guess. I won't actually ever know what you are going through, but you have my sympathy regardless. Not like what I say holds any weight, though.

I appreciate the gesture.

But you're right. "you have my sympathy regardless."

It's hollow. I look at it and it means nothing. I pass over it and I don't even blink. It's nothing. It's just an empty void.

But I appreciate it. Actually no I don't. I can't appreciate it. But I thank you for saying it anyway.

I don't like using the term "sympathy" for precisely the same reasons. It's just a filler word (like "lol") used when people dumbfounded on what to say.

Nuka doesn't like to share empathy and sympathy. In fact I'd love to tell you all the shit these people talked about you while you weren't here, but I'm really trying to hold back. All you need to know is that these people are heartless and only care about themselves. Ignore them, it is to your benefit.

I know what goes on here; I know people despise me and talk behind my back. I know that people who actually take the time to get to know me are just branded as "circlejerkers" simply because they don't hate me. I'm at the point where I don't care what they think anymore, and as you advised; I just ignore it.

They don't like me? Too fucking bad.
