does anyone feel tired of living
this isnt related to manga but for a long time now i wanted to not be alive.
its kind of a different feeling than when i just wanted to die which isnt something ive been feeling often recently, i just dont want to be doing things that make me human like breathing now feels weird in a bad way and i dont want to move like when youre sick with the flu-feeling sluggish and cold.
i've talked to people for my other issues but i found that it only helps in the beginning and then i feel like im not meant to be there and that im just taking up space for someone who needs it more than me idek and then at times i feel like like im in slow motion and everyone else is normal speed but then it'll switch and i'd be going twice as fast and when im doing things like reading or listening i can't process anything so i just don't want to do it anymore.
moving schools has made it a lot worst but i knew it would so im only torturing myself at this point and its approaching winter and i get "winter blues" which makes me unproductive anyway but i also developed a phobia of snow last year which is so stupid but it scares the life out of me.
i have tried to take my life before a few times (mainly overdosing and such because of periods of anxiety and OCD) but i still feel sort of empty(?) like i dont have something in life that is meant to make me normal and want to do human things.
so does anyone feel like this and/or have any advice :)
Hi, I've known many people that feel like you and my advice is to just wait, patiently until you find something you like, a reason to live.
Meanwhile just try to relax, there's nothing wrong with being or feeling slow or being scared of snow. Try to enjoy the little things idk like some food you like to eat or things that you like to see. Watch mo...... 3 reply
Honestly, i feel the same. I dont seek help or anything since my family believe any sort of mental illness or anything is just in your head. (As in "you only think you are sick".)so because of that i dont think anythings wrong with me but i feel....hollow? Empty. Idk.its a weird feeling with sadness mixed in.
I just started my first year in college...... 3 reply
I totally relate. I started suffering from anxiety and depression around age 17, I believe - I'm 23 now. I have since gone through years of therapy and medication. At this point I have become a relative zombie emotionally - i.e. can't remember the last time I've felt happy or have really cried. reply
I'm going to vent a bit here just to make myself feel heard.
I think I feel the same kind of emptiness you feel. I don't really want to "live" but I don't want to die either. I still want to be someone but living takes too much effort. It just doesn't seem worth it to me. Everything would be easier if I had a goal or dream on mind but I don't. I f...... reply
I understand where people are coming from, truly I do. And it's absolutely terrible; it's crippling sadness, it's a dull apathy, emptiness, a crushing hopelessness and helplessness.
All these feelings and more rolled into one.
It's a heavy weight in your mind and attached to your body, leaving you feel tired and unmotivated. It's standing in a fiel...... reply
I wouldn't say you should find something to make you normal, I recommend you should find something that you like. Perhaps by trying something new?
There's no need to be normal.
Something I miss myself in life so far is having that thing, a something, that I really like and can devote my time, efforts and passion towards. All my life I've shifted ...... 1 reply
There was a period where I used to feel very depressed. I think you're in this situation because clearly you're tired of suffering costantly. But being alive means also that you have to suffer. Pain sure is part of life. Even when your sorrow seems to become the only thing you are feeling and doesn't go away it is worthy. Worthy the times you are g...... 2 reply
I used to feel this way when I was a teen, and I feel this way now.
I haven't really classified it as depression because, in my case, it's a feeling brought about by external stress, not a wholly internal force that changes my enjoyment of life.
In that way, the feeling might be different from yours.
I didn't want to kill myself, I just wanted ...... reply
I've been feeling this since elementary school but i'm still here. the cause is mainly because my parents were always arguing over the dumbest shit and i used to care a lot about it. made me depressed/stressed inside and lost the will to want to live cuz i just hated their arguments so much. now i just plug in my earbuds, blast my music and ignore ...... 4 reply
I don't know if this will be helpful but here's my two-cents.
I've felt similar to where you are for a lot of my life. I would say that I feel the same some days even now. What helped me were a few different things happening in concert. One: I legally became an adult and started feeling like I had more control of myself and what I did with it. Tw...... 1 reply
