i dont mean to whine..but sometimes this world is just so ****ed up and just..evil that i dont really want to be a part of it anymore. human beings just live live to expoilt others,animals, and the planet. why do douch bags have all the power? why do the inncont get burned, skinned, hanged. this makes me not really want to befriend any humans. even tho i myslef am human.
i think im too much of a ***** to actully try and kill myslef. iv said i would before, but i think most times i do it to just get attention. at least i admit it unlike some people i know. i got a little off topic there. people suck.
honestly, i think i would be perfectly content with just getting my own cozy little house in a wooded part of long island(like the one my aunt's beach house is located) and just have a three cats, two dogs, and a pet rat, and mabey even a chicken. i wouldent half to have to deal with peole that much, i dont care if i have friends or not, or a man. i would just be prefectly happy like that. i dont feel like i need people at this point. does anyone feel this way.

I think I know how you are feeling. I have been betrayed by humans. So I trust my horse. Do you have any pets right now?

I know how you feel. I have felt that too. But then I realised that humanity is me(and you). And if we disqualify humanity, are we not disqualifying ourselves as well?
Gandhi was right. If you want change in the world, BE that change. Sitting on an island is not helping anyone, including yourself.

Wonderful! When one suffers from depression, it's great to have allies in life -- both those with two and four legs.

I often feel betrayed by other humans too and think everyone is selfish and hateful. Then every once in a while I see something, an act or behavior, that makes me believe there still is good; I see that not all is bad if I just saw something good in someone that warmed my heart.

It really is hard not to become consumed by all the atrocities that occur due to our species. However, you have the power to make the world a better place, whether it is seen as something small or big - everything counts. Volunteer, recycle, donate to a charity that appeals to you, etc. Think about things YOU can do, rather than the evildoers and their actions.

Don't kill yourself.

You do need humans.

It's going to be okay.

I too struggle with seeing any value in humanity/humans including myself. I think the earth would be better off if we just all died off. I have realized I need to be open to develop a new view of the value of humans. Not just to get over my depression, though that is essential, but maybe I have been wrong. Maybe there is some value to humanity. Right now I am looking for it, though I still think almost any other species is better than us.

Please take care.

David, I too am on sick leave for about 3 months now for depression. Can totally relate. I do not have any disability insurance though; do you? We are having a tough time financially. If I could just snap out of this and start caring about humanity I might be able to do my job in healthcare again. I might be able to go through the motions (very slowly) now, but it is hard to care about a patient when all humanity seems better off dead.

I think it is easy to think that way because we can all too well understand our own motivations. We remain blissfully unaware of the workings of the minds of other species. I have to say, that I falter a bit when I see my cat and what he does to his prey, or what a weasel of a mink does when they get done inside a chicken house. My rationalization processes have to work overtime then. But people, yeah, them, it's way too easy to crawl inside thier little skulls. And depressed, All I see is the bloody, evil, filthy slef centered stuff. The dark stuff. Depressed, I never see the light. Or if I do, I turn away really fast. There are times I just can't admit it's there.

Just don't give up on all of us. There are still a lot of folks who feel the same as you and who want to change things. Just hang on, keep your eyes open, and don't turn away form the light, dear. HUGGGGGSSSSSSSS

I think I know how you feel. So many people have rejected me and hurt me many times. I have so many times thought of just running away and living in the woods away from people who hurt.
