I'm fed up of life, I want to die!

Posted , 8 users are following.

Ever since I got kicked out my family home when I was 16 I've felted this way. I'm now 23 and speak to my family except for my dad.

I been feeling depressed on and off since 16 but its gradually got a lot worser recently.

I've been living by myself for just over a year now and I feel so isolated from everyone. I have friends on Facebook who live in my town but I don't feel like I can talk to them. I feel like there judge me.

I've recently just signed off as I want to start my own company, but now I've been left with now money for just over 3 months. I haven't eaten in weeks and I get bad pains in my chest. I just want it all over. If someone can tell me what I can do, please before I end it. I'm sat here in tears and I'm upset - I'm begging for help please

    I dont know where you are but if you are in the UK go speak to your doctor and he can also give you access to foodbanks which are for people who cannot afford to feed themself or on benefits

    You dont say if your on medication but discuss with your doctor and consider some counselling.

    In the UK there is also what is called the reablement team which is run by the local council and with a referral they will help you with social stuff.

    It gets you into things you like doing then you make friends

    The first thing I'd say to you is DON'T. You're clearly feeling totally negative right now and you've got some rotten stuff going on but it absolutely doesn't have to be like that. I know other people who live most if not all of their social life on social media and it's not good. We all need to have real people - preferably real friends - in our lives and it's not likely you'll get that totally on-line. I think you need to think more deeply about why you think people would judge you in a face to face situation. And what does "judge you" mean anyway. We all have opinions about everyone around us but they tend to be a mixture of positive and negative things - that's life. You're clearly focussing on the negative parts of your life at the moment (and we all do that to some extent from time to time) but I'll bet there are many positives inside yourself as well and other people will see them if you let them. To get your mind well you absolutely need to look after your body as well. Nobody should be starving themselves to death - at the very least you start by talking about this to those members of your family who you're still in touch with. I'm pretty certain that they would hate to know you have got this low and would want to help. You should also talk to your doc about the pains in your chest. Almost certainly at your age it's nothing physically serious but it would be an opportunity to talk to your doc about how you feel more generally. You could be surprised about what it opens up. I'd say that it's highly likely that you'll find a way through this however rotten it all seems at the moment. Please, please don't do anything crazy.

    Hi Annon,

    Reading that made me feel so sad for you. Why were you kicked out of your family home at age 16? Please don't end it. There are people here who will help you.  Please see a doctor for medication - and if you're in touch with your family (except your dad) can't you at least ask them for food? Are you inn the US or UK? We have food banks here for people who can't afford food. Maybe there's a similar thing where you live? If you're in the US I know that lots of churches provide meals for people, but I don't know how you find out which ones. Stay with us - don't end a young life - you have potential, but you just can't see it at the moment. Love Tess

    After posting this I booked myself into see a doctor. Thanks to everyone who responded to this. They are gonna get me the right help I need from the right people. Other things still not sorted but my mental health needs to be sorted. I wake up on days I feel like I'm drowning with no way back to the top.

    I was on medication before 'respirdone' because I witnessed a stabbing in January 2014. Kept having horrific nightmares, waking up panicking in floods of sweat.

    I was on diazepam back in 2008 to help me sleep and relax after my brother in law booted me in the face and broke my nose because I was p*ssed and he 'couldn't help me up of the floor'.

    I would go to my mum, however after my dad left in January 2015, my youngest sister who is 19 has seem to be copying my dad and abusing and hitting my mum. So I don't want to put my stress on her, she's dealing with my little sister via the right channels but won't be able to help me out as she only gets £31 a week to support both of them.

    I'm trying to sort a food bank vouncher out, but seems to be more difficult then intended.
