Tired of life

Just getting tired of life. Don't have any desire. Just feel like giving up. Where's the joy? What's the purpose? Life sucks. One minute, things are going ok and you feel like you're making progress, things are going well, you have hope for the future, and then the next it comes crashing down and any inkling of happiness or hope is ripped away from you like someone is ridiculing you for even having hope. Like you feel stupid for even thinking that there might be some hope for happiness.

I don't even really feel like writing. I'm not in the mood for anything. Nothing. I feel like just doing nothing for a long time. Just laying somewhere and letting time go by. I hate it because I feel like it's a waste of time but I honestly feel like doing nothing. Life is just way too difficult. There's way too much. Getting to the point where I don't care about anything. Just don't care anymore. Why spend the effort? Why care? There's no point. The only thing that will happen is that any little hope that starts to grow will be stripped away from you and then you'll feel more stupid than the first time for even thinking you could have hope. It gets worse each time. It slowly gets eaten away. The amount of hope is less and less each time it gets stripped away. It never gets rebuilt to the previous levels. Eventually you'll end up not being able to build any hope at all. And then you die. Sounds like a lot of fun.

I feel the same way and wish I would die everyday but I won't deliberately do anything because I wouldn't do that to my girls. In the meantime I cry everyday and I'm so sick of feeling this way!

To give you a little hope perhaps, my motto is the song lyric:'I get knocked down, but I get up again.'

I have been very low at various times because of setbacks, but i managed to summon up strength and courage from somwhere. I was at an all time low back in March, but l now feel somehow extra strong for having pulled myself back up.

You might find you have those resources too if you dig deep.

This forum has been a source of strength for me too through the recent bad times. Great bunch of people on here.

I am in an anxiety state since Aug. I can't go in stores I can't be alone ,have to go everywhere my husband goes now he is starting a job on Monday and my fear is through the roof of not being with him I feel I need to be committed to hospital for help. This is making my anxiety worse having a hard time functioning feel like this will push me over the edge. I have no mental health help. They are all booked up. What do I do or think to deal with this ...help!
