I don't know what to say. It just feels like my whole world is crashing down. Tired of feeling alone and depressed and like people don't care.

Yes, I can definitely relate to the struggle all right ExplodingSun56, I can definitely relate. One step at a time, one day at a time, that's what I tell myself, and I just want you to know you're not alone on those feelings. We'll get through this challenge named 'life', don't you worry.

Btw, it was Eddie Van Halen's birthday last Saturday. Just wanted to share that with you.

Oh yeah forgot about that. I'll have to listen to some Van Halen. But anyways I just wanted to say that I feel like I've lost something in my life and I feel like I've missed out on things and that's why I feel like this. I also feel like there's something missing in my life. So I haven't really been feeling like doing anything cause what's the point. Will I ever find what I'm looking for? I don't know. But I'm still gonna go to school tomorrow even though I don't see any point right now.

I also wanted to say that I did find something that made me happy within the past year that gave me hope for the future and that's why I'm doing a little better these days but I'm still feeling hopeless about certain things.

That's great, ExplodingSun56. Glad something good happened for you. I remember when I was younger thinking 'when will this emptiness ever end?'. But things did change, good things did happen, rewarding things, which, yes, gives hope and makes the effort worthwhile. It's not all bad, as you know. But, yes, a bit of a slog sometimes. Good on you for focusing on school as well, it's important.

If when you feel yourself sinking into a hopeless feeling, if you can catch yourself and just focus on something else, it can alleviate that awful depressiveness from sinking in. Easier said than done I know, but it's one tool I use which does help to an extent.

I know the feeling. I don’t know why but I guess we all feel a bit this way from time to time. I hope you’re feeling better soon.

Contact me if you need to talk about something. Feel free to PM me anytime. Let me know if I can do something to help you. Sending many hugs to you

I don't know. I just come here to vent when I want someone to hear about my problems. If people won't understand me in real life then at least I can come on here and maybe some people will understand what I'm going through. So I don't know what anyone can do to help besides just listen to me talk about my problems. I think I know now what type of people to look for I think they're just hard to find. I've cut ties with people who aren't good for me. I don't want to be around toxic people. So I'm just trying to talk to other people. So that's just a little bit of what's going on in my life. Just thought I'd say that.
