Being told that life is open ended with unlimited possibilities only makes the depression worse, because it reminds me how I failed at life regardless of that.

[@matejblaha4659]

That notion that we are so much different from the animals and are liberated because we have a consciousness is naive. We have much less control over our lives than we think, because we have instincts, cognitive and physical limitations, etc. You should love yourself regardless of your perceived failures, the only way to truly live a fulfilling life is to accept and love things the way they are and only work towards improvement from there. Rejecting the reality is a path to (self)destruction, fulfilment comes from the inside, not outside. And I believe it comes through unconditional acceptance and love. Imagine you are raising a child or growing a plant. All living things need nourishment, all effort is pointless if there is no nourishment. You cannot grow a tree in a dessert, and you cannot blame it for being an ugly piece of dying wood when it has no water. I wrote this for anybody who needs to hear it including myself. Love yourself, please!

[@SteveInLava]

@@matejblaha4659 Why should I love myself if I don't care about life in the first place? I was given this so-called "gift" of life by my parents and one I didn't ask for, my parents expect me to make something out of the gift they gave to me, this gift has more flaws than it has useful features, and the gift will expire anyway no matter what one makes of it.

[@matejblaha4659]

@@SteveInLava Because bitterness is wrong. Not caring about life is wrong. You only cause pain and suffering if you don't care about life - to yourself and others. With some sort of moral understanding and responsibility, you should do what you can to love yourself and others. Life is not openended and it is flawed, but there is beauty in it if you don't refuse to see it. There is no point arguing with you, people are not driven by reason anyway. Just as it would be terribly wrong and sad to advocate for murder, it is wrong to advocate for suicide. It is not only yours energy that went to your life as you said, even though you were hurt, you wouldn't be alive were there not ebough energy in you that keeps you alive.

We are ready (and wanting it to end)...but, I suspect...if somehow, we can make it to the other side, if we can just hold on...there is something better than we could have ever imagined on the other side. I am not an idealist...but I've met many many other people who went through this same hell, and even worse....and they somehow came out the other side as beautiful and as tough as a diamond. To those struggling...hold on. I know the feeling of "I have nothing to contribute, what is the point". But we are all here, on this video. For some reason or another. We are all searching for hope.

Good for you, buddy. If you have that kind of energy, passion for life, and curiosity about the world, you clearly don't have depression/anhedonia anymore. I create my own meaning. Neither meaning nor forging my path is the issue. When everything you do on Earth feels like nothing, no reward, that's when the problem occurs. Life feels like: having to do 100 pushups only to get a piece of uncooked broccoli. Life is just all about that broccoli. Everyone seems to love this broccoli (sense of reward, dopamine, which I don't feel).

[@denizkudayar6206]

I am 39 soon. For about 20 years I have been having an issue with meaning and path (which you mentioned you don't have). I've been searching all these years and changed lots of occupations, but finally, I recently came to an understanding of what I want from life. If you have a sense of lack of motivation, reward, and/or purposelessness/meaninglessness, then probably you don't have a purpose worth living. Probably, when you say I don't have an issue with meaning, it ain't so, otherwise, you would have your portion of dopamine. Doing what you truly love is its own reward. Seek for it. Try to find that within yourself. It's always within us. Try to recall your dreams when you were a kid. Try to resolve your wounds when you were a kid (those wounds block our dreams). Research yourself. Study yourself. Know thyself. And you'll find it. That's how it worked for me.

I like to think of life as a dream. Whatever this reality is, whatever this conscious experience is, when we die, we'll experience a different state of consciousness. It's just like waking up from a dream. All it really comes down to is whether or not you want to have a good dream that you'll remember forever and you can look back and smile about, or if you want have a nightmare. All we take with us when we die is memories. We take nothing else. Nothing else but our conscience. I just want to stock up on good memories. Peace

[@lalinera8279]

May be you should see it in a different perspective. Instead of the question you asked, focus on the "helping others" idea. How they perceive it is not your responsibility. Research shows that helping others gives a meaning to life. I recently was thinking about how it is in our nature, as human beings, to survive. For example, if our body is drowning in water, our instinct is to do everything we can to take a breath and live. This shows how, once we are born, we want to survive deep down to our core. You are right. Instead of guiltily someone, it is better to guide them on finding their lives meaning. Then they would want to live for themselves.

"You just gotta self-improov bro" - Rousseau, 1750

[@gabrielhemingway]

One of the few strategies I’ve used to alleviate suicidal tension and despair is to consciously remind myself that my current experience is temporary. Some other methods for coping include massive hydration (flavoring the water can help), eating comforting food, resting (though periodically attempting to put the body in motion, even if it’s simply sitting up), consuming a nutritional shake (I *highly* recommend investing in liquid nutrition if financially feasible; consume at least one full serving per day), very mild exercise, such as a brief walk around the block (even simply pacing in your room helps, as long as it doesn’t exaggerate anxiety/stress), warm baths/showers (maybe have a bubble bath or include a rubber ducky!), meditation (even if it’s simply focusing on your breath and observing your experience), listening to *positive* music (as cathartic and comforting dark music may seem, it’s not necessarily healthy for relaxing the mental-emotional loops that are causing you pain), consuming *wholesome* media (dark humor and usage of irony only does so much across all contexts, really try to consciously aim towards consuming information that sincerely uplifts you; watching Bob Ross for example has helped many), engaging in interaction with a person / animal you love (though this isn’t always accessible. I’ve at times attempted to imagine that I have a fluffy dog next to me who I can snuggle with. Your imagination might be more comforting than first conceived. You could even find solace in giving an object or a piece of art a “personality”, it could very well make a positive impact), stay away from toxic online people (especially on the more notorious platforms like Twitter, Discord, etc.), find one creative outlet that you can exercise once a day (or once a week, or once a month. Don’t feel discouraged if you aren’t moved to express yourself whatsoever, that’s perfectly okay! The activity could be as simple as writing a one line poem, drawing silly faces, or inventing a melody in your head), try to restrain screen time (you can replace the time with a book, a creative activity, or simply use said time to rest your eyes on the couch / bed etc.), try not to drink caffeine too late (it depends on your lifestyle and physical makeup, but try to consume caffeine before noon, or about 8 hours before your next sleeping period. I’m not an expert on this subject, so feel free to do research on optimal caffeine intake), take opportunities to sleep (though try to be active just a *little* bit if you find yourself sleeping most of the time, I know it can be really hard; and if you find that you can’t muster the energy, then that’s okay too), writing down your thoughts / emotions can definitely help (though as mentioned before, it’s perfectly okay if you feel like it can’t be done), reading quotes helps me a lot (especially if they’re from philosophers), and of course there are a plethora of other *healthy* coping strategies (I wish I could make this comment comprehensive. Since I cannot, I highly recommend doing some research on additional strategies if you’re up for it!). Finally, I would like to highly emphasize that seeking professional help can do you wonders; be it with medication, finding a therapist to connect with, or even trying out that one niche treatment that might just change everything (I know some of you don’t have the financial resources to obtain these services. I wish I knew ways around this. At the very least try to do as much research as sufficient on free / inexpensive options.) I hope this post helps you, and I wish you well on the path to feeling better, even if it’s only for a little while. :)

My body is a smiling mask. My heart is an empty vessel. My mind is a communicator for both. It's so contradicting wanting to 💀 but also wanting to live. Feeling like I'm incapable of loving myself. So why should I expect others to be able to love me? I would offer myself to others til I saw that hurting more. So I dim it down. A proper balance and I still feel incomplete. I run with hobbies that keep my mind distracted. Good people around me to feed me positivity. But why do I feel so empty? I used to think it was my trauma. When I was violated as a kid. But lately it's been the thought of incapable of love.

i just find everything so dull, nothing to work towards, i am 25, i dropped out of high school i stayed at home doing nothing for 5 years, absolutely nothing, I was depressed, i was able to magically get out of that whole started working, made friends lost friends, made new ones, lost all of them, got different jobs, some bad paying some good paying, covid hit, moved back to my mom's house, did nothing for a year, got into discord found a community I liked made a friend like them a lot, got very good job working from home, I have bought stuff read books, i have done drugs, watched tv, had happy moments, bad ones, when I was young and depressed i though there was a way out, but now that i have a job i like people i like i still do not have a reason to live, i feel the more i try and the more i achieve, the more meaningless everything feels, i am really tired, i am tired of trying, tired of archiving my goals, making friendships, learning about stuff i like and the only reward i get is more emptiness, more void, less stuff that can make me happy, less things to take out of the list that can take away this emptiness that i have inside of me, every time i push myself forward, i get pushed right back in into nihilism no reasons to keep trying, the more i achieve the more Empty i feel, and the more i am driven to finally end it all, life is just a joke, i used to think to provide myself some kind of meaning, that the meaning of life is to search for the meaning of life, and i think i am very close of ending that search, and it was all what I expected from the beginning, i wish I had never come in this path I wish I was dumb and never have asked all of this stupid questions, being conscious is suffering, and i am really tired of being, but i am scarred of nothingness for ever, but day by day the idea becomes more and more appealing and I am really scarred i feel so lost, i really need help and have no idea where to start, please if anyone is reading this i just want to know what to do, please i really want to keep trying but i am really tired

@Mike C when people are all happy and busy in life they don't seek connection.. those seeking connection are depressed ones. It's sad reality that we can see people all around but they are not close to heart. In such cases we only can be optimistic , start giving love to others though we may not get anything in return and live on till life gives you a reason. C'mon develop connections yourself. Connect with pets and children first, it's easy. Connect with elderly people, they are lonely. Invest your time on really bringing smile on face who needs it without expecting anything in return. Connection develops. And if you are too lazy like me , just write few lines like this in internet , connection develops 😉.

the only thing that keeping me from suiciding or totally giving up my life is someone, because i know if i died or gave up that person would do the same and won't be happy, as for me life is useless and nonesense, everyone's life is the same, or it has common things, which are: we all live dumb since birth for first 5 years, then we start to learn how to walk, talk, communicate, dealing with strangers and the outside world, then we start going to schools, colleges, "or not if we cannot afford it" then we start our grinding life, we need things, so we have to work to get it, some people love their work, majority don't, some people are lost, some get luck and happiness "good for them" some people don't, some people find great partners "other half (male - female / female - male)" some get the wrong partners, they then separate and if they had children those become the victims, then back to commons, we all gonna die anyway, but before dying we have to suffer, yes suffer from something called aging, it happens no matter what we do in our life, no matter how healthy we eat, active we are, how fit, how we do all the right things, we will suffer aging, then dying, most good things are bad for us, like for example in food: fries are bad, meat some researches said it is bad, most food fast food or ready made food are bad, if you need a snack and went to any store or market everything on the shelves is bad, either makes you fat, cholesterol, too much sodium, gluten, transfat, preservatives, etc... some habits we like are also bad coffee is bad, smoking is bad, staying up late is bad, masturbation is bad, sex without marriage is bad "for some cultures" and for God it is a sin, staying in front of pc multiple hours is bad, being lazy and gaining weight is bad, and the list is endless, so you have to do the right things the right habits, avoid anything bad hoping after all that you don't get a bad illness or disease like cancer or other organ failures or else like an accident or any destiny accidents, then hoping to not suffer a lot while aging and die peacefully and on top of all that if you believe in god you have to keep away of all the forbidden things to go to heaven after death "as the religion said". It is all BS, life is BS, you cannot forge bla bla bla till the end of the sentence if you are not in good circumstance if you don't have enough luck if you don't have the necessary tools. Most people since birth until death they just had regular life nobody even felt their existence, once someone dies life moves on and everyone forget about him/her. If i told you about my life you won't believe it and it is one of million of sad stories and a lot of sad lives out there. i feel so bad for those people who dont have someone or something in their life to keep them from suiciding or giving up their lives, i pray for them. I don't know why i wrote all this comment but i felt like i had to. "please ignore this comment" i was just talking to myself.

the meaning is in... a) becoming capable of shaping your reality the way you want it to be (this alone, becoming capable of doing this is the toughest part probably), b) actually shaping your reality c) then, as a soul, getting back to God, with the gift of your (multiple lifetime's) experience(s), as you (and all we all together, and everything that is) are part of God who wants to know thyself. There are thousands of nuances left untold and out of this formulated and expressed thought, but this is the general picture of how I see this world and the meaning of life. p.s. I saw lots of pessimism here in the comments section. I just want to tell you guys, please don't give up. I know you're tired and want to skip this lifetime. But, most of the people who committed suicide had mentioned that they regret it. (I know this from Dolores Cannon's books, also Michael Newton has a lot to share in his book about the journey of a soul) Know that you chose to incarnate and be here. You chose this "level of difficulty" in your life. And you chose this because you trusted yourself that you can handle it. It is challenging, yes, but you chose it because of your belief in yourself. First, try to get out of the swamp of the victimhood state and try to cleanse your thoughts. As your thoughts are the seeds of your reality. Please don't give up, brothers and sisters.

I understand and appreciate the message here but you really are undermining the damage suicidal feelings can have on a person. Unfortunately it's not as simple as playing the '' happy game '' and hoping everything will be alright in tha morning because for 90% of those people suffering with these feelings, it won't be alright in the morning. It might not be alright for the next year or god forbid the rest of their lives. I do like your positive attitude and how you're trying to bring everyone up with it but tbh people need the truth and a realistic answer. The truth is the answer sucks no matter which way you look at it. The world is shit and we all just have to find a way to muddle through. Just knowing other people are in a similar situation can help. Talking can help. Therapy can help. Getting out and trying to do the little things that make u happy can help. Trying to connect with positive people can help. None of this though will fix what's gone wrong and nobody is about to forget the pain they've been in but it will help and hopefully give a new lease of life. Some days i have to put myself under arrest to even just get my head up off the pillow but i'm still here. You there reading this are still here & that means something whether you believe that or not. This world isn't about to change but every single one of you in this thread are proving there's some goodness to it. If for nothing else, give yourself a pat on tha back for that...

Yesterday for the first time I start to cry in front of my mother I saw her that she wanted to help me. So right now I wish that she’s gonna find psychologist for me. But I know she’s not gonna find one,why? because she really doesn’t believe in mental problems. no one really cares about me. And if I die no one gonna be sad,everyone just gonna cry some minutes and then just live their life like nothing just happened. I don’t even have a really friends because none of them really do care about me. I am very silent and introverted not because I am an introvert it’s just because I really don’t have energy but no one ask me why I’m silent. Because everyone is so used to that I am very silent and look sad but in fact I was just depressed for three straight years. And still no one gives a fuck.

You feel like your body has given up on hope and now your just living for other people and not yourself. Sometimes you can have someone or something around you that make it feel like you belong or have meaning. When you know what you want and knowing that you will never have it means there’s no point since life is hell anyways so if you can’t have the dreams your looking for than you have the right to say I can’t stay here because there is nothing here for me to live for.

I dont want anyone to miss me when am gone. No one deserves my presence. My absence will solve my problem permanently

[@mary-ks4pz]

I feel it I dont wanna live anymore I feel worthless

[@cynical7935]

im emotional. there’s so much going in my life. stress. the wanting for something you can’t have so badly, you cry. losing friends. a dad that isn’t a dad, he’s a pervert. i see no more reason to have to live. i have major anxiety and im insecure. i believe my friends are going to back stab me and leave. im keeping up my grades, but with that, comes with a bucket load of stress. nothing makes me happy. every time i watch my favorite band, i remind myself, “you’ll never meet anyone and they’ll never be yours.” im terrified of letting others down and dissatisfied. the only comfort i have are online people and people that’ll never be real. you see my dilemma?

[@wow-wu5yp]

This is mostly how I feel. I feel sad alot because of it and other stuff

[@puckerpop]

@@wow-wu5yp for me there's always something to be sad about 🤦🏻‍♀️

puckerpop: You're actually lucky... Sure, boredom sucks - but it's nothing compared to living a life of constant sorrow/sadness/emotional pain.

I find some things in life so fulfilling and plentiful, but others make me wish I I was dead. I've been struggling with suicidal ideation since I was 10, and now I'm 26. I think it would hurt too many people if I died now, so im not gonna do it. But sometimes I wish I could go back and time and just tell myself, "actually, it does not get better." Therapy has been never been helpful for me. I want to do something productive for myself. But...what?

What if you don’t have control and your abused and restricted by others ?

almira Ask for help without putting your self in risk, find a way to keep inner straight meanwhile. Meditate, that can help you to have a safe place in your own mind. Be care.
