What's the point?

Everything seems to just be blowing up in my face. Everything bad that can happen is happening. It's all just taking the fight out of me.I'm crying all the time. There seems to be no end to my sadness and depression. So what's the point? What's the point of trying to feel better? It will be better for me and everyone else if I just went. On my way home from work I was crying the whole time. I pulled in the garage and thought to close the door with my car still running. Now I'm thinking when I go to bed I should take pills so I don't wake up in the morning.

@samd136 I am so sorry you're suffering like this :( *hugs* Things may just get worse and worse until they can ever get better. I hope you get a break and things get better for you. None of this is permanet, it will go away in time. Please reach out to a crisis resource instead of taking the pills <3 https://suicide.org has a list for almost every country.

Hello. I am sorry to hear that you're feeling so badly right now. :( Sometimes the day can suck so hard that it can be hard to figure out why you're doing it. I can't tell you why you do it or what your point is but I can say that someone would miss you if you closed the garage with yourself in an on car or if you took those pills. I know whose are just thoughts though and it is normal to experience those thoughts. Heck, sometimes I find myself thinking "wouldn't life be better if I just jumped?" but i cant do that. -hugs- I hope you feel moderately better soon.

you probably already know about the following but I should let you know they exist just in case you dont!
