Why Does this happen

PeanutGalleryGirl profile image

What happens when your only hope is gone, you're empty, you can't do anything right, you get yelled at for trying to be yourself but then when you try too fit in you just get laughed at, and there is nothing left in this world for you....?

Parents telling you to stop making a big deal, saying it's only a phase, that tics me off.

Been through hell with my Parents for the last 2 years finally leaving . Are you at a age where you could leave them go and live at a place that you could be yourself? How do you want to be yourself in an ideal world ? I know when hope is gone faith is hard to believe

There won't ever be a perfect world no matter people will judge, cheat, lie, abuse, and won't except others.

Has that happened to you? Abuse can get better

Sometimes when disabled we need to move on and live our lives to the best of our ability. I made the error of living with lack of understanding for many years and it took many decades to admit defeat and push myself on to a new life without all the unpleasantness I had suffered from. So if it is so bad live your live and just move on. You do not need to be a Scapegoat, that falls upon a sword at the whim of people who should know better

Life is short you need to enjoy the time you have, it is your time no-one elses

This is one of the most challenging times in your life. The trick is just to live through it. By the mid 20s or age 30, most people begin to feel comfortable in their own skin. Parents often feel their kids “should just”...fill in the blank: go to college, not go to college, major in engineering, major in liberal arts, respect a curfew of 9pm, or respect a curfew of midnight. Your environment with your family will help shape your identity, whether to follow their example, set you on an opposite path, or help you decide to forge your most authentic identity no matter what. The trick is just to live through it until you reach that time when you come into your full power and establish your own household, with your values, and your rules. The time will come when your generation will takes the reins from mine. You all will literally inherit the Earth. Let this knowledge help you get through. You are strong and resilient. I believe in your generation. Wishing you the best.

I will not assume that I understand your life or your individual struggles. What I am here to do is offer my experiences and what gives me hope for the future. Challenges to one’s mental health become all-encompassing problems. Some become sleep deprived with aching backs, headaches, and blurry sight. The entire journey will not be painful. The entire journey is life. These challenges may become anecdotes to share in passing, but the journey is life and life is unsympathetic. Unsympathetic in that life is unpredictable, no sorrowful speech or funny story will salvage the years you may lose to this challenge. The important thing is that you maintain motion. Whether you are moving forward, backward, up, down, sideways, you must move. In my experiences with suicidal ideation, the tragedy I discovered was my disinterest in motion. I wanted change so badly that I sought out the escape of life itself. Forgoing the motions towards the future. You need the future. The future needs you. The only links one can make in our existence is hope for a better future. Move, in any direction. Move, and do not hurt the ones around you. Move, and do not hurt yourself.

Hi PGG,

When I feel like I have lost hope, I have sought out new friends that could lift me up. It is hard when parents don't get "it" or when those people who you leaned on just laugh, but there is hope. Look at the stars, the mountains, the ocean. Looking at nature opens our minds to see something bigger than ourselves. Come on and hold you head high! Sit down with one or both parents and explain your feelings to them. But don't give up hope, sometimes you need to take a break from routine to catch your breath.
