Trying to be strong. Trying to work, even though I'm in soul much pain. I wish ppl knew my heart and know I not here to hurt ppl on this earth. I feel so low, weak, and hopeless today....for last few days, can't seem to push myself.

I'm sorry to hear that you're feeling so hopeless right now.  It sounds like you're suffering a lot and like you're feeling abandoned as well.

These stretches in which we feel down and where we can barely do anything all are horrible. I'm truly sorry that you're finding yourself in that situation now.

What happened that you're feeling so low these days? What usually was a driving force for you in the past?

In the past I had no clue how bad my life actually was, how little support I had and how ppl viewed me. I feel there is no hope of me ever making a real friend or finding a wife. I was married but now divorced. I don't think things will change for the better. So I realize this situation I'm in is forever and I want to change it but I can't. Idk how. Everyone says take a day at a time....but thats pretty bleak way to look at life as well. I have alot of love to give to ppl and nobody want to take it from me and I feel so lonely. I try to be positive and think if I just keep being me, keep showing up and keep being kind that eventually ppl will give me a chance. But I really don't think anything positive will happen in my life....where as before I thought my "soul mate" was out there somewhere and I thought i was meant to help pppl....I can't even help myself, how can I help others? I just get so defeated i cry while I'm at work and I cry at night....it's been so hard lately. But I'm still trying. But I'm pretty exhausted already.

You cannot buy love and acceptance. And if you could, someone else could buy it away. It must be given freely, and the first person you should give love to and accept live from is yourself.

(Advice I should be giving myself too)

It’s okay I couldn’t even read this without crying .. I feel the same way everyday I thought I was the only one that could feel that way I cry every morning I cry at night mostly when I’m alone I always overthink and cry I’m a mother of 2 boys I’m 23 years old and I’ve already given up on finding a soul mate I have like 2 female friends every guy I meet only wants that one thing no matter how much love I show no matter how many times I forgive I always end up being the one hurt and looking in the mirror at myself for hours trying to figure out what’s wrong with me or I wonder to myself am I just weird and don’t realize it?? sometimes I feel like if I keep being depressed everyday it’s eventually going to make me angry and bitter in the future I even gave a ugly guy a chance and he ended up hurting me the most

Bare minimum is what I tell myself. Because I deserve at least that.

Thank you so much. I am so appreciative of all these kind and uplifting words. I hope you and everyone on this thread has every bit of love you all deserve. And I do say deserve. Kind hearts needs more to fill there cup since we often empty ourselves for others. You are precious.

@Thehollowwoods01 be gentle to yourself. be here and now. One thing at a time. Know that it will past, it always does. I know how hard it is to find something positive in that state, but there is always something positive. Open your eyes and see it. Something so simple yet so effective that helps in every situation that ive been told is " look outside yourself" Thats it. We always tend to overcomplicate everything in these states. Dont, look outside yourself and thank me later! 💪 You got this🍀
