Quote: VespiI think one of the big contributors of my depression is a lack of someone to talk to. I can't talk to my girlfriend about it because she always seems caught up in how her's is worse, and all my closest friends are always too busy so I don't even try because I know I can't talk to them in time. Even then, it's not any of their problems, but my family doesn't believe in mental illnesses and I can't afford a therapist out of pocket.
It just feels like I'm constantly ****ed with this, y'know? Sometimes I feel like I shouldn't even be here.
Damn, I get you. About not having anyone to really talk to, I mean. I'm so sorry to hear about this, and honestly, I don't know her but your girlfriend really shouldn't be holding that over your head. She should be open to listening to you, and you can't compare problems/emotions/whatever because everyone handles things differently.
And just ... your family not believing in mental illness? ****. Okay, no. That's pretty ignorant of them, especially in a time period where everyone is becoming more open to talking about it.
Man, if you ever want to talk about it or just vent, feel free to drop me a message. I can be pretty horrible at replying, I'm not going to lie, but seriously I'll try my best if you want to talk.
Hope you'll be alright. And yes, I do believe you should be here. You deserve to be here, okay? What makes you any less deserving than anyone else in the world? ;;
