life help: How do we gain the will to live? - Help.com

well..i read a poem recenly.maybe it can ask this question;
“if i can stop one heart from breaking,
i shall not live in vain;
if i can ease one life the aching
or cool one pain,
or help one fainting robin unto his nest again,
i shall not live in vain”

I’m sorry your feeling that way. I’m kinda in the same boat. Things just aren’t lined up and the waiting isn’t getting you anywhere. I guess what we need to do is make ourselves stand up and want to live. I know its hard because I’m there too lol Sometime ourselves are our biggest alli and other times our worst enemy…

sometimes its just helpful to let yourself feel. Even if its ******. I have cycled through my ups and downs my whole life. Neither of them last forever but the downs always seen to last longer. People who have been down can never spicifly help people other people get back up because you can not ever remember now you did it. Its just does. Another thing I always find comforting is that this doesnt last forever. I will be greatful for everyday I have but look forward to other things.

there is nothing wrong in asking for someone to help you. you can only lie for so long

You Cannot Do It By Your Self.
Nobody Can Do It By Them Selves.

What happens to a lot of people is they get depressed or they get a lot of grief and they don’t know how to get out of it. What you need to do is get rid of the depression or grief by expressing it, find someone who is open to listening to what your going through. Someone who is open to letting you weep or yell or do what ever you need to do to express what is inside you only then will you find the will to live . Whether that is your best friend or a professional counselor doesn’t matter. The freedom of life without grief is like drinking the milk of gods.
