Confession

I sometimes resent my family for keeping me alive.
I basically lost my job the other day... despite being told only good things about my work and service, it's just not "convenient" to keep me anymore. Honestly, this is killing me. It's one thing to lose a job, but to lose one that I'm so passionate about is killing me. And right now, I feel like I might just let it to that.
@ravenousSoul I had the same thing happen to me; it's why I'm here. I've come to accept the situation even though it truly hurts and you get stuck on the "why" you will get past it.
Take it one day and step at a time: especially do what you need to honestly deal with this loss; at the same time place yourself around people /person & places that support your circumstance; remember it happened and now it's given you time to work on you.
-I'm actually relaxing for the first time in over 4 years
-looking into going back to school
-getting time to spend with my family
-most importantly getting to know me and releasing all the mental burdens I've dealt with for way too long.
Stay here: it's a safe place.
Thank you... It's been very overwhelming, I was only told yesterday, so I'm still processing it. It makes me feel like all the efforts and hard work I put in the past two years were for nothing. Unfortunately, no one will pick up the phone right now. So I'll try and stay here.
I'm short and lonely I hate it. I wish I was able to control my height. I'm only 171 cm and I have been bullied verbally and physically because of my height
I'm 156 cm. I think you're just fine. Not to diminish your feelings and bullied status..but things get a lot easier when you just own it. You can't change it, so own it. Make it work for you. You do you. I wish you luck.
In what world is that short? I thought 171 was considered tall! I'm 149cm and haven't grown since 7th grade.

@Angel it's short for a guy I'm guessing you are a girl. You see the thing is everyone at my school is like 6 feet or above and I just wish I could control my height so it wouldn't be like this but whatever I'll just forget about it. Thanks for trying to help.
I am a girl who is about average height but I think that guys getting made fun of just because they aren't as tall as others is ridiculous. I for one think you are perfect the way you are. Just show all of them that just because you maybe shorter you are just as good if not better then everyone else
Exactly! ^ I'm a girl, but I realized that with your height being "short" you must be a dude. It really does help to just own it. Confidence helps, but not so much confidence that you come across as arrogant. Just be happy with yourself, is best..I've found.
But honestly, I can't believe that anyone could bully someone over something as trivial as height. Petty. Just straight up petty and small-minded. Stay strong.
I'm scared of how I would be if I wasn't medicated. I feel like I'm not me anymore but me being influenced by drugs.
I have confession to make its that I'm a silly can be a weirdo I love to do things to make my friends happy and sometimes they do things to make me laugh.
There is nothing wrong with that. In fact keep doing what you are doing it's good.
I cut myself today
Hello uhm I found this by chance on my app store read the reviews, so I decided to try it. I don't know where to start or even how to start because I guess am used to keeping my problems to my self cz no one seems to understand. Well the basics I am a daughter of a single mom who tries so hard to provide( father decided a child was too much responsibility). All through my life especially my teenage years I have been looked down on cz of my background and all. Now am loosing self confidence and battling depression. I just want to know if someone has gone through what am going through, who can I dunno give alittle encouragement.
Well, I haven't gone through what you have..but I deeply respect the courage you exhibit. To this day..I still help others on this site..while not telling anyone a lick really of what troubles me. I hint here and there...but I never get the courage to push through. I think you're in the right place, @hopeful18.
He was married. He has children. This should have bothered me. It would have bothered me but something between us was so strong. It's not that I didn't care. It's not that I didn't know it was wrong but somehow it wasn't relevant. There was a connection an emotional connection a physical connection an animal attraction. An urge that needed to be filled. He took my virginity. He didn't know till after. It was so perfect. He was so kind and he was so concerned. He kept asking if I was ok. If this was ok. Is this what I wanted or we can stop. He was never forceful in anyway. It was always about me and I love him for that. He is the one I waited for. Afterwards we sat and talked like best friends do. That was the first time...
I've been self-medicating with prescription and OTC medicines in order to cope with all the things that have been going on lately. The drugs make me feel numb. I'm so apathetic, organ failure doesn't scare me. I'll take my chances, because I have nothing to lose anymore.
I remember telling members the awful reality and dangers of self-harm, instructing them to avoid the razors - all while hold a blade in my own hands
That sounds familiar. I would never want anyone else to go through what I do every day, but I just can't seem to stop.
I feel like my life is all over the place...but I'm still standing.
