I'm waiting to see someone who has some other disease that's not MENTAL just accept GOOD ADVICDE no one cares chill out deal with it. Even AIDS patients get hugs because its the PC THING TO DO in our "enlightened world". There are 2 people its okay to hate today - fat people and people with emotional/mental problems. I'm not fat but I have empathy for them anyway. Tell me some other disease that saps the life from you that are ignored or forgotten or wished dead. No they have someone to rally round them and cheer them on. Mostly I have I guess a bad attitude by now. I was always supposed to be perfect. To treat others with care and compassion even though I was instructed to believe I had no right to the same. Nothing much has changed all my life I just understand a little bit better why I feel so bad. Before I didn't know how to say anything and now that I do it actually makes things worse..

I guess what I feel like is a leper. But I can't make anyone love a leper I realize - I must always consider others -

I even had a psychologist that told me I couldn[t kill myself because it wouldn't be fair to my kids.

What a conundrum. You feel like crap that no one cares. But if you think about taking an early exit you can't do that JUST LIKE ALWAYS have to BE NICE.
