    this week has been so much for me…. I mean every time I think about myself or my situations, I have to hold back tears, I mean not even thinking about it I’ll want to cry, writing this makes me want to cry… I just woke up, my scores have been slipping (from an average of 80% to a recent 60%, opening the results in class almost made me throw up), one of my friends killed their parents in a car accident the other week, we just found out another classmate just killed themselves the other day. i can barely stand associating with my own thoughts without the threat of tears. My dad called me a ”lazy cunt” this morning, like every morning, and my mum laughed along with him pointing out the things I do wrong but… They dont know how much I push myself EVERY. DAY to seem WAKE UP, TO EAT, TO BE ALIVE for THEM, to complete my school work in the WORST home environment while trying not to get under 80% so I cant get the fuck out of this awful place and get some form of recognition from my parents. I had just woken up. These are things I cant even talk to them about, or theyll laugh and say ”you’ve got nothing to stress about” ”its not that bad” ”your a liar” I havent had an episode this bad since my last attempt that I havent even TOLD them about. Then when I told mum that shes never around to see me do shit, she was like ”we GET your in a bad mood” and ”who put you in THAT mood” when it was OBVIOUSLY YOU as she walked out of the house to leave for another day or two. I wanted to tell them that recent, school been a lot, my friends are avoiding me, and I feel like a failure, but I feel like everyones forgotten i have do feel things, i’m not an emotionless robot ready to fulfil your commands, people always say ”how strong I am” and hearing it makes me want to cry. Im a liar, I cant even hold myself together and they cant even notice it. It only 8 am. Sorry for the rant.

    Mood : Stressed
    • Please don’t let stress get you down @seagoatsyntax, work as hard as you can and I’m sure you will do great at school, your parents have no right being mean to you and they shouldn’t call you names, you deserve love, encouragement and to be told how incredible you are every-day, things will be OK and everything will go positivity, remember to hold your head up high with confidence and smile, you can do it, believe in yourself and don’t give up, I’m always here if you need to chat or vent, message me anytime, my inbox is always open, stay strong, you are never alone :) (hugs)

    • Thank you for sharing this with us.
      Ahem!…. There was a time I realized that, I wasn’t in control of my life, and that I was living a life others wanted me to live….
      The really funny thing here @seagoatsyntax is that, those people didn’t know a ______ (beep) of how to live! they were (and are) depressed, chronically stressed, miserable and insomniac people, they can’t even sleep peacefully in night!
      .
      And I was like… ”Do I wanna end up like them!? HECK NO!”
      So I took control, in little things and in big things… I wanted to grow a big beard and keep my hair long, so I did. Irrespective of the fact they forcefully tried to have me cut em.
      University was making me miserable, so I quit! I simply informed everyone about my decision and didn’t go again. Now better opportunities have opened up to me and i’m doing fabulous! (plus i’m at bliss.)
      They come to me and tell me that i’m making their lives miserable. I sincerely and politely tell them, that ”you are responsible for your happiness, i’m responsible for mine. You will forever remain unhappy, if you think your happiness depends on what I do or don’t do.” (because I have tested it again and again, if I try to make them happy, they still remain miserable, and I get miserable too… If I keep myself happy and healthy while being polite to others, they are STILL unhappy!, but at-least i’m happy.)
      .
      They forcefully try to take me to places where I don’t want to go and felt like a waste of time. I would reject them and they would force me, but I would resist to the point that… now they don’t even ask me such things. They know I won’t listen to them, they know I’m not in their control, they know now that I am a person who can make his own decision so they now do not even bother.
      .
      Respectfully speaking of the people who fed you and raised you (your parents), they are doing nothing but being lazy by getting their stress out on you… trust me when I say this, that if you follow how they want you to live, you are going to break and your parents and you yourself will be miserable…
      So if out of respect for your parents (which is very noble) if you are putting up with their garbage and killing yourself… then they are NOT going to be happy in the end… neither will they ever EVER realize your pain..
      So just drop it syntax, just drop it… if you live happily, to the best of your abilities, doing what you feel is right and honest. Then I assure you, your parents will in the end look at you and be proud of what they have brought into this world.
      .
      In the end, whenever you feel like suiciding, thats an alarm that you are ready to take extreme measures to solve your issues. Direct that positively, don’t kill yourself. But kill your phone, pack your bags, smuggle yourself on some boat and wake up in a different city and start over, and try to do things that you always wanted. Makes sense? :D
