I’m losing it.

Here’s something I wrote a while ago to explain myself. Sorry..It doesn’t explain everything, but..that’s me.

Desperate To Escape.

Some times I feel so alone. Words cannot describe the feeling of hopelessness. It’s like…my whole world and everything I was ever

meant to do has ended. As if I entered a room where you went to get something, and everyone in the room is staring at you with

accusing eyes as you hurriedly search for whatever it is you’re here for. Then, all of a sudden, you realize you forgot what you’re

looking for and why. Except, it’s worse. You look at yourself in the the mirrors reflection and realize that you look different and you

aren’t perfect, like all the people in the room are. People are backing away from you as you try to ask them to help you search for

whatever it is you’re here for, because whatever it is, you can feel that it’s important. Maybe more important that anything else, even

living. Even that doesn’t feel like it has a point. No one helps, though. You hear whispering and laughter from somewhere behind you.

You turn to look, perhaps it’s meant to be funny? But, no one is laughing. Their faces are blank. You don’t know who whispered.

Once again you feel nervous, a feeling your not accustomed to. Maybe your hair is frizzy? Maybe you’re overweight, or your clothes are

ugly and unacceptable. You feel so ugly, miserable, and guilty. Almost as if it’s all your fault they don’t like you. You want to punish yourself,

you get so angry, because of your guilt. What is wrong with you? What can you do to make yourself acceptable? No one will tell you.

You crumple at their deadly gazes, hating yourself. It’s all your fault. Maybe if you were like them,

they would like you. You try, and wear what they wear. You put paints on your face to make yourself into someone else.

Maybe even desperately lose some weight. Starving for attention. But, the more you try, the more it gets worse. It seems hopeless.

Life altogether seems hopeless. They might like you if you do something desperate. Prove you’re in control. End your life,

and get out from under their horrible coldness. Either way, you see it, you will win. If they feel sorry, and help you, it’s the end of all your troubles..

But if it works, all of the pain and hate will end. Finally. Relief would follow, except your dead. As you fall into darkness, you feel so alone.

You die, confused and cold.

With no one to cry for you, no one to stop you. Life goes on, as it always has, and always will.

Without you.

I’m sorry but I’m finding it hard to give any words of consolation to someone who is so deeply driven down in sadness. You have the freedom to take whatever stance you want towards your suffering, towards anything for that matter. But if you choose to take such a negative stance towards life then there is nothing I can say or do for you.

People exaggerate and over analyze things, especially when they have time to think, even worse at night when the darkness gives us so much space to think. Occupy yourself with exercise or some form of activity, if you’re sitting down then you’re not doing yourself any favors.

Best of luck

Your problems seem to be centered not around you, but what everybody else thinks of you. How do you expect your life to change if you don’t change? “They” can’t do it for you, through working for it or through their approval. Trust me, if you define yourself by what other people may or may not be seeing or thinking you will never be happy with yourself.

I think you’re at an age when other people have great impact on your life and how you feel about yourself. You are concerned with all those things that people might notice about you: looks, weight, dress, behavior. This happens because you are on your way to accept, understand and care about yourself. Later on, other problems will matter to you but what you think now (the way you do) will make you a fearful, insecure person, even at 25 years old. It could be helpful if you would dismiss every negative thought that is unjustified and exaggerated. You are not lonely if you have one friend. You are a good person and you do well and you know it. You are not perfect, neither are other people. So… don’t let your fears and frustrations influence the way you should be, as a person.

Hi there,

Teenagers can be really good at bullying each other sometimes and thats a real shame because it can affect people deeply. Trust me when you get to go to college and university things will change. Dont stop believing in your self. Trust your parents, speak to them, find your self some kind of activity/sport you could join, keep your self fit and busy so that you wont worry too much about what other people think about you. Maybe you will never be 100 % happy about the way you look, but trust me, no one does.

basically, the more you worry about what other people think, the worse you will feel about yourself. You are only human, and everybody has something that they would like to change about themself, people at school can find anything about anyone to make fun of. Just remember, your opinion of yourself counts way more than what anybody else says. You should be happy with who you are, and if you show people that you are happy with yourself, then they will accept that and probably wont make fun of you anymore or whatever is happening.
