I am so tired of just living and existing. i want it all to just stop I mean existing. waking up and breathing and doing everyday stuff. I'm tired of having to deal with the present and worry about the future. I am jealous and mad at all the people around me that are old and that have died because they are almost done with their lives (even though they are not happy about the whole idea of being almost done). I'm jealous of the people that have died because they don't have to deal with this world and think about and worry about the future any longer. I hate seeing people that have things (husband- job- nice home and family) while i literally have nothing. I know feel good and think about what you do have and don't worry about the future stay in the present. I don't like being in the present either. I am working on changeing it but it is taking so long... and things may not work out the way i hope.
please dont try to compare yourself to this show...its not a real story. it is a made up show that supposed to be a comedy not a true representation of true life...she can get better with just 2 or 3 seasons just by going inpatient because its comedy based fiction not non fiction.

this is exactly why I refuse to watch it and tell those I treat not to watch it... shows like this tend to leave me (a person with dissociative disorders) feeling disappointed and let down on my own progress and problems and does the same to others I know.

its best to not compare ones problems and rate of healing to no one but their self and their own goals/treatment paths.
