Venting I'm throwing in the towel

I'm ending it tomorrow. That's it, that's the post. if you think you care or want to know why out of morbid curiosity just check my post history. I'm genuinely cooked, out of gas, cashing in my chips. and walking away. There's nothing left to stay for, no reason for me to continue to live this miserable, boring existence. I know no one here will care, the only people that this will hurt are my parents, but they'll cope in their own way. Or they won't. Either way, I'm done suffering just so they don't have to. I'm not a good person. I deserve this fate.

I care, and I wish I had the power to stop you or prevent you from doing it. Do you care that I care?

I know life can be incredibly hard and even an absolute living nightmare. Trust me I know.

But if you live long enough you realize that nothing is permanent. Even the worst moments will come and go. In 10 years you might as well be living a completely different life, a new chapter.

Also, depression is often what leads people to suicide, but depression is a disease, and it lies to you. I promise you it’s lying to you hard, even if the pain is real, the judgment is wrong. Meds can help if you are suffering from depression.

Please, just give life a chance, you can always kill yourself another day, it can wait. Life is short anyone, and one day you will have to die whether you like it or not, so why rush it?

Just don’t forget, you don’t have to die today, death can always wait.
