I just keep coming back to the same awful feeling

I know everything's pointless. that's just kind of objective at this point. like I know none of it matters and I should have fun while I can. but I just am miserable all the time no matter what I try and I don't even know if I want to get better because then everything would still be just as bad but I'd be able to be oblivious to it.

I can barely function day to day. I know I'm going to drop out of college. Ive only been here 3 fucking weeks and I'm already skipping classes because I just don't have the energy to do any of it. I cry over sending emails and not knowing how to do math homework like an actual child. I feel so awful because I don't want to be here but I still don't want to be at home. I just don't want to be anywhere and it always comes back to that. Everything comes back to the fact that I don't feel like I belong here. I don't want to be here and I don't want bad things to keep happening.

I seriously thought about checking myself into a psych ward. I literally sit around and daydream about dying. I don't have any hobbies anymore. Everything I draw I hate. I can't focus to read. I'm too scared to go for walks because I dnot want people to look at me and I've convinced myself I could get attacked walking on my own. And that's all my hobbies have ever been because I have a sad fucking life and always have. I do nothing but sit and be miserable. Checking social media makes me angry or sad so I just do my homework and listen to music or whatever and sleep. When I can fall asleep.

I haven't spoken to anybody besides the people I buy food from in a month and a half. If the point is to have fun then I don't have any reason to be here because I can't have fun. Any slightly good day always ends with me spiralling and feeling so gut-wrenchingly awful that I'd rather just be numb all the time anyway. It's like I have to pay for one hour of happiness with 3 days of barely being able to drag myself out of bed. Which I didn't do at all yesterday.

I know I need to stop wallowing and start working to make things better and that nothing will get any easier if I lean into my thoughts and cry about whatever my dumb fucking problem of the day is but I just. I don't have a reason to want to get better. With the way the world is maybe I should be depressed. With the way I act maybe I should just stay sad. I don't think any of my problems are going to be any better if I put in the rigorous work needed to even slightly improve my state of mind so why even try. I don't care at all except that I'm sad and that ive been eating too much which makes me a fucking narcissist so. whatever. leave me the same generic "it gets better!" comment I guess. Or dont. I keep coming back to the same feeling in my throat everytime anyway because there's nothing of substance within my entire being. Cool.

@itsrory, firstly , it's actually good that you are able to express and put your emotions and thoughts on paper. It will only troubled you more if you keep things bottled up. Even you do not have anyone to share, feel free to vent in 7 cups anytime you want. By the way have you tried speaking to your college counselor or a therapist or maybe the local parish counsellor? Your saddness seems to have been around for a long time. It is actually helpful that you are aware of it. Talking to someone might help you to understand yourself better. Please feel free to message any of the listeners at 7 cups if you need someone to listen.

By the way , it might also be of some help if you get a medical check up . Sometimes an imbalance in our hormones, tyroid , vitamins or minerals might cause some issues with our health.
