Im giving up on life.

Im just a loser, i can’t find a steady job, I had to drop out of school because i had to pay my way through. My first school canceled my program of study and i was stuck with the student loans that just went default. I would pay my bills and put myself through school but i can’t find in steady full time work. I’m single and live with my parents without a dime to my name. If i could find a job that isn’t seasonal and one i could depend on, i could turn my lif around. But im so much of a loser i can’t even find one. I got turned down at a mcdonald’s and a walmart, that alone shows that im a loser. Im sick and tired of living this way im nearly at the end of my rope. Btw im only 24 years old life never really started for me in the first place.

I’m in Afghanistan right now. And I’d much rather be here than trying to get some dead-end job in the States!

I suggest you check out the military. If you really want to make something of yourself, and you’re not afraid of hard work–and danger–this could be your ticket out of your present dilemma.

By the way, you can have up to $95k in student loans forgiven through joining the military!

Some of the finest men and women I have ever met are over here serving in the military!

you must have some strengths. what are your strengths? you won’t get far if you work against your talents like if you try to be a singer but have no voice. do what you are good at.

I don’t know what to say. I was feeling sorry for myself and typed “help” into Google, and this website came up, and your posting first. I thought I was typing it in to find help for me, but instead I am here offering help to you, and maybe that is the whole point. I am sorry things are so terrible for you.

Things are good for me and I still want to hurt myself. I have a job, tenure, an apartment, everything, and yet I still feel like I am worthless and useless and disgusting and pointless. Do you think it ever goes away, this feeling? Maybe it doesn’t. Maybe that’s the point. Just to be with the self and deal with the feelings.

I don’t know that this helps. I wish I could make things better for you. Maybe that would make me feel better, too. All I have to give you is the wish for greater happiness tomorrow.

Best wishes…

I was feeling ok, bout a week ago my depression hit hard. I spent my days & nights
praying for God to please let me die, Today wasn’t any different but i didn’t pray once for me. Just prayed for everyone on my help.com prayer list

It does go away, maybe for just a short time, but it does go awasy
You just got to remember the good things

those are very good abilities, you could be a writer maybe, or get into councelling. start drawing if you’re good at that. use your imagination and see where it takes you.

I feel the same way. I pray for death but it never comes, there must be a reason for that. It comes and goes, but it’s hard when it comes.
