life help: I am not a stupid person. - Help.com



This post left anonymously

I am not a stupid person.

I know this, and yet today, I ponder taking my own life. I cannot find a job and my boyfriend is verbally abusive. I want to leave this state and start over but feel like there is nowhere to go and nothing to do. Oh I know, “I shouldn’t run away and blah blah blah” .I don’t have any skills and seem to fail at everything. Everyone tells me I’m smart and a great friend and yet I feel like a gigantic burden on everyone. Do I just not understand how the world works? I feel as though I am Gods disappointment. I can’t tell anyone because everyone is too busy with their own crap and never seems to understand…I’m pathetic. A gigantic waste of human space…..

Alright, you shouldn’t stay with someone who speaks down to you, someone who you are suppose to trust and turn to when you feel down, only to feel worse then how you were. Why do you believe that you can’t change your life, if there is something that you want to do in life then only you can decide to do it or not, no one else.

you’re not a burden and you’re not a waste of space, you can’t let assholes like your so called boyfriend bring you down. step 1: dumb his worthless ***

you’ll find something you’re good at and you enjoy, everybody has a talent, whether they know it or not

Depressed and stupid are two different things. And suicidal thoughts come when the stress is larger than the coping mechanisms. Don’t be down on yourself. I’m certain you are NOT a “waste of space”. You’re just another person like the rest of us trying to make things work in a world where things aren’t going very well.

Get some counselling if you can. Or at least talk to someone. If your boyfriend is abusive, get rid of him. You’re better off in a shelter than living with someone who doesn’t respect you or treat you right.

I know how hard it is to be jobless right now; but don’t let that make you feel like you’re not contributing. There’s a lot more to life than money.

God’s never disappointed or surprised for that matter…He knows everything that’s going to happen.

Besides, He loves you regardless of what you do. God is love.

you are totally not God’s disappointment. God loves you just the way you are like he did with me. i used to think that god probably didnt like me, but that was a huge lie. i used to be my own mess but now i’m god’s mess, which is so awesome. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RvDDc5…
there’s hope for god’s plan for your future is peace and not disaster. just let him reveals himself to you and walk in his ways. we love you.
