I'm the same way, my family underestimates me, and my acquaintances overestimate me. and I too have adopted ignorance, but I show it by doing a total fakeout, and no one around me, unless I tell them, truely knows how I am feeling. I can't tell my family what I'm going through, nor others around me. Just like you I question how much longer I can survive, and the honest answer is, I can do much, I am needed by those around me, and that's why I stay away from suicide.

No one really knows how strong I am, but I can see the weakness of doubt. Doubt about how long I can survive this. So far I have made it 6 years. HOW about YOU? How long have you made it?

Keep in mind that some have been able to survive for decades. It can be done... don't give up, someone out there wants to get to know the real you.

If you need someone to talk to, just let me know, I'll be there for you, and I think I'll understand to a point.

Someone out there wants to understand you, and help you. Will you let them in? (That's the point of these online support systems, to help each other)
