Well, why do you think that you would have killed yourself by then?

Well, why do you think that you would have killed yourself by then?

ever since my bike crash in 2012, i have been dealing with depression, lack of emotion and my energy always feel like im up at 11:00 at night. i often wish i could vanish into nothingness. but i would feel to guilty hurting my family and ect.... but i think in 10 years from now that scale would tip the other direction. i do take meds, but they are not really working :/

how do you know what will happen in the next 10 years?

lots of things happen and change in the span of a decade.

Well keep in mind that where you are right now might not be where you are in the next 5 or 10 years. Tough times don't last, tough people do, and to end your life during a tough time is simply cutting yourself out from whatever potential recovery you could make in the future.

Maybe I shouldn't put my thoughts on this but eh I need to. 5 - 10 years really is a long time, time that you need positive thoughts. If things aren't going well for you then you gotta find a way to change them. Set a goal, maybe go to College study for what you want to be. If you can't afford the tuition get into an apprentice program and learn that way. I'm sorry to say this but some meds makes problems worse. Depression can consume all of your energy, all your emotions. Talk to others that will listen, I'm quite sure you'll feel better, boost your self esteem as well. In that time period you could become married and have a family too. Don't let depression control you, you control the depression, don't let it hold you back from living. Even tho I have bouts of severe depression, I remind myself and others that Life is beautiful, Life is worth living.
