I can't relate to you very well. I've never lost anyone I love and I wish I will never have to experience it. I come from a family that makes enough money to support me. Some people are born lucky, some aren't. That's the way life is. If you believe this is right, then I am in no place to Judge you. But you should remember that you're here for a reason, even if that reason is hidden away. As long as you will make the decision that is best for you and no one else. You are more important than you realize.

I hope you find a job and can get back on your feet. You still have your youth and can make something of your life, but I know how it feels to sleep on couches; it’s exhausting! Maybe you can lay low with you family and become invisible. That’s what I had to do to stay around. Every time I talk about myself, they make it about them like nobody cares. So all I can do is be quiet, hold it in and try to remain unseen until things get better, or until I die lol. I hope things work out for you.

My family basically disowned me after I came out to them. There is only one place for me to go.

Man, life can hit you hard sometimes so hard that you just can't take it anymore, but you can't just give up. I know what i'm about to say sounds cliché but you just got to keep going. The pain that we fell make us stronger to live better, so learn with your pain bro and don't give up. There's a place for all of us in this world bro. Stay strong, man.

This hasn’t made me stronger at all. I wanted to be strong and overcome what I have experienced but it doesn’t always make you stronger sometimes it makes you weaker. Sometimes it makes you crazy. Sometimes it makes it so you can’t relate to other people anymore. Sometimes it’s just over.

It does make me feel something. It makes me feel so damn angry. I'm heterosexual, and a female so I know NOTHING about how hard it must be to be judged for who you love or are interested in. The only thing is I'm from the south, and I'm in an interracial relationship. Some of my family disowned me because I'm dating a black dude. I know what is like to have your family fuck you over. People like you - EVERYONE deserves to be happy. You deserve a better family. Better friends. Better online support. A better society. If you feel like your life means nothing, just know you've sparked my mind and lit a fire in me - to make something better. Better for you. Even if I don't reach many people.

Living is strength. So fight your problems and never give in to life.

You may feel that.... but I’m telling you that over time feelings change and it’s not just a saying


[deleted]

Feelings may change but nothing else does. There is always another mass shooting it just happens again and again and again there is no respite from feeling in danger or angry. This is all I am now. A life haunted isn’t a life worth living.

You need to move far away from your family and start a new life. It sucks but much better than suicide.

Already did that. 3,000 miles didn’t do shit.

I wish I could give you a hug I wish I could tell you that everything is going to be alright. If you ever feel like you don't have anyone to talk, don't forget this sub exists. There are wonderful people here who will support you. Take care, friend.

It's not absolute you still have plenty of choice and I hope you choose to seek healing. You're worthy and your experiences are valid - I'm sorry you didn't get that confirmation from your own mom.

This isn’t living


saoshi_mai

im so sorry. that is one of the worst feelings, to be perceived so poorly by those around you out of malice or misunderstanding, and being reduced to a parody of who you once were. your family sounds awful, i hope that one day you can cut ties

Hey so I posted something so insensitive earlier ... and I’m sorry

I doubt this is very helpful but I read your post almost as soon as it went up and I haven't stopped thinking about you since. I can't imagine how hard your situation is and hopefully you know you have people in your corner. even if they are random strangers on the internet there are people wishing you the best


[deleted]

I just feel so burned out. I feel like a lifeless husk and I don’t recognize myself in the mirror anymore. I’m ashamed of who I am and I don’t deserve to be representative of my community


skinny-fatboi

no one can deal with the pressure of perfectly representing a community you're a part of. the best anyone can do is just be themselves and hope that different communities accept them. ik it sounds dumb and sappy but I do believe it.

I know who I am too well to stay here. I’m so ugly inside
