All my life I had to deal with emotional stuff alone. I'm afraid this is my destiny, like the universe is waiting for me to get up and cotinue again and again.
I don't want to be strong anymore, to fight, to do whatever because all of that is done alone.
And it's not fair. "You are strong" = "You are alone"

I need help...why don't I deserve support? How much lower should I get?

When my family members say that I'm strong I want to punch them in the face. Why not help me?

It does not matter how 'strong' we all are there are times when strength alone is not enough and we need extra help and support and there is no shame in that ,I can relate to this so much .

I feel the same as you. We do the best we can and that's not good enough. If I care I get weak. If I don't care I get weak. If I think I'm strong I become weak. I'm fragile.

Even strong people need help sometimes. But others don't want to see their "weakness" even though asking for help can be a brave thing to do.

I'm sorry you're having such a tough time. You deserve support. We are here to support you. You don't have to be strong. I like what the poster said about standing in a hurricane. I'm here if you need to talk. Thinking of you.
