I just spent a year in my parents house after getting kicked out the military. I'm going to be here another year. I don't leave the house, I have no friends, I'm getting fatter and fatter, life just feels pointless, I have SI but I won't attempt again. I just don't care. If I died in my sleep, that would be nice.

You know, nobody can make your life meaningful and better but you. I say this is the most caring way. There was a time when I was pretty non-functional and I looked to everybody and everything to 'fix' me but it turned out I had to do the 'work' myself. That was 14 years ago and I am still workin' on it but life is so much better ...

My life feels rather pointless as well so I can relate to that feeling but just staying inside all the time is certainly not helpful, even just a bit of fresh air can be a good thing....not going to say 'all you need is a healthy diet, exercise and enough sleep.' I never find that to get rid of my depression, but I guess it feels less stagnating if I get out some, even if I just go sit outside of my house if I am really not up to going anywhere at all. Are you in any sort of therapy? or getting any help with the depression or other issues you might have?

Hi Jesusplay,
I am sorry you are going through this. I hope I have some words to comfort you. Many of us here are on the same boat. One thing that is helping me right now (and that maybe it would help you, I do not know): I got rid of Facebook. I used to say that I did not use Facebook to compare myself to others, but I think, I did. Some movies (those stupid ones that portray idealistic lives and very easy problem solving) could be affecting me, so I go rid of them, as well. I try to watch silly comedies that make me laugh, as much as I can. I try not to watch so many news, because they affect me greatly. I do not know, little changes. Maybe they are stupid things and are not useful to you. Please, notice that you are not alone. I wish you the best

I have often prayed I would die in my sleep.

How old are you. The military isn't for everyone but it doesn't mean you can't do anything else.

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
