Just take each day at a time. These feelings will hopefully pass, and you will be glad that you're still here. I know life can be really tough, and it can seem pointless but you will get to a point where you'll find meaning, purpose and happiness. Keep going! You're so so needed in this world.

Why are you feeling the way you do ?.

Are your Parents unwell

Do you suffer Depression, Anxiety ?

How can we help, everyone supportive here, what is going wrong

There's only one way you could know what the future behold for yourself and that's if you kill yourself. In five years you could be married with kids. Own a buisness, ran a marathon, skydive from 10000 feet, discovered yourself physically and spiritually. Ate food at a world renowned restaurant, made friends you thought you could never have and laugh so hard with them you almost throw up. My point is that no one knows what your future holds not me and most importantly not you. There is so much to live for and one of the main reasons we should get up in the morning is to find what we love and hold dear. Please don't waste your life enjoy it

To be honest you need to learn who you are and don't measure your own happiness on the people you have around you.

Oh sweetheart I do understand. Why are you so low? Do you think when your ready you can start (very slowly) and make a list? It's important to write things down... Just start with two things. Then, start to look at your list and write next to each one on another colour what you could change? And what you really can't change.

At this present moment just get the paper ready.

How old are you? What do you do in India?

Please promise me you will start writing two things down tmw?

God bless, I know you are going to be OK.

I am feeling really low and a cry a lot. I dont wanna be weak anymore. But memories make me weak. I am a doctor and in love with a guy. He treats me harsh and according to his terms and conditions

in reply toBooblet

Well... Did you consider changing your environment?

Singapore is employing doctors.

Plenty of Indian expats here...

Get up and move.

Take care of yourself first.

Then think about others.

The pay here is better and you are treated as God's! Doctors... 😂.

You see yourself as weak.

Its okay.

To be strong first we must acknowledge our weaknesses and only then CN we move to fix it.

You have taken the first step.

Now look outside your environment and see the opportunity to fix yourself first.

I rarely hear about girlfriends and boyfriends in Indian context hence I can imagine the social pressure.

Do I assume correctly that this same social pressure (to marry) impacts you and your BF?.

Take one step at a time.

One day at a time.

Don't look at your problems as a whole.

Just look at here and now and fix today first.

Makes sense?
