I'm tired of waiting to get better

I know that day will never come so why do I keep fighting through another day. I don't have a purpose here only being used and unappreciated. So why am I still here?

Hello Darknlovely504!

Maybe your realization that “waiting” doesn’t work is a good thing! You have projected negativity into the future and defeated yourself before ever having started! You’re actually throwing a pity party for yourself...try being grateful for all of your many blessings. Gratitude helps chase away self-pity. We’ve all been there and it’s uncomfortable, I know. “Action” now needs to be the keyword in healing rather than “waiting.” If you’re interested in taking action to help yourself, message me and I will gladly help! I’m wishing you light and positivity! 🌺🌞🌺

Action without moving forward= nothing. You can do this. Did you get the book yet? Love, peace, joy, light & hugs!!!

I agree with the previous poster. It is helpful to start setting some goals that you know that you can complete that will make you feel accomplished. It is great that you are a fighter. That will help you get through this phase and on to feeling better eventually. Concentrate on the things that you enjoy and get outside and breathe in the fresh air. It does wonders for my mood.

You do have a purpose. Your heart is beating. Can you feel it? That’s purpose. You’re on this beautiful planet for a reason. That’s why you’re here reaching out to us. Deep inside, you know that things could get better. You just have to keep trying. You have to fight to get yourself through this trying time. You deserve to fight for yourself. You deserve to live this beautiful life. This is just bad thoughts creeping into your brain. That’s what depression does. Don’t listen to them. They are wrong. All of us here know what you’re going through. Please continue to come here & speak with us. Stay strong. You’re better than what you’re going through that makes you feel like this. <3

Yip same here separated from partner of 13yrs for her to now not let me see my son. My depression and anxiety now consumes me to the point I'd rather just not be here now. I'm afraid after 41 years on this planet my times up I'm so fed up with this feeling its got to stop, but won't till I make it stop I've no friends no family left I'm just finished and I know it... Try just grinding through the best you can hope all gets better for you in time bye
