Venting I hate that my life is so good

[plast1c_sk1n]

I've never gone through any serious trauma.
I have an objectively good life.
I got into the top school for my program.
I always go out and have fun when I want.
I have loving friends and family.
But I wish I didn't so I could at least have a reason for being the way I am.
Every single day I want to die. I can't remember a single time in my life I've ever wanted to live. Even when nothings wrong, I've just never had a will to live at all. Because what's the point?
I wish I didn't have any friends or family who cared about me so that I could just die in peace.
I hate that my death would hurt so many people.
I wish everybody could just forget about me

Do normal people really have a will to live? They really go through every single day and every daily inconvenience and still truly genuinely want to live? I can't even imagine it. Aren't we all just living because we have to? But if we're all just living because we have to then wouldn't it be best to all just give up

Damn this is relatable. I'm sure you have some sort of reason, deep down in your brain. Work it out, figure out what that reason is. Once you have it figured out, you can plan your next steps more effectively. It's easier to climb down a mountain if you know how you got up in the first place. Don't know how one would find out said reason but I'm sure someone much smarter than me can give advice in the replies.

damn, this feeling is so familiar.
It always makes me feel disconnected from everyone else and the world in general.
everyone is enjoying their life, making plans for the future, they don't have to force themselves to shower. And here I am, who just decided one day that going outside is too hard and it's better to stay in bed 24/7.
what's worse is that I have no idea if there's something wrong with me or if this is normal for people and they're just masking their condition.

That's a lot of pain. Sorry you are having it. I'm sure this isn't a new idea but you didnt mention a psychiatrist or medication? Can they help you answer that question, or decide what to do about it better than we can? Since you've deciddd to try to stick around, if someone can lessen your misery?

I don't at all mean to be dismissive about the depth of your pain, I know it's just as real as someone who is having all the bad things happen. And I don't mean to be a cheerleader. Sending wishes for kindnesss

Je n'ai jamais vécu de traumatisme grave.
J'ai une vie objectivement bonne.
J'ai été admis dans la meilleure école pour mon programme.
Je sors toujours et je m'amuse quand je le souhaite.
J'ai des amis et une famille aimants.
Mais j'aurais préféré ne pas le faire pour avoir au moins une raison d'être comme je suis.
Chaque jour, je veux mourir. Je ne me souviens pas d'un seul moment de ma vie où j'ai voulu vivre. Même quand tout va bien, je n'ai jamais eu envie de vivre. Parce que, à quoi bon ?
J'aurais aimé ne pas avoir d'amis ou de famille qui se soucient de moi pour pouvoir mourir en paix.
Je déteste que ma mort puisse blesser autant de personnes.
J'aimerais que tout le monde puisse m'oublier

Les gens normaux ont-ils vraiment envie de vivre ? Ils traversent chaque jour et chaque épreuve et pourtant, ils veulent vraiment vivre ? Je n'arrive même pas à l'imaginer. Ne vivons-nous pas tous simplement parce qu'il le faut ? Mais si nous vivons tous simplement parce qu'il le faut, ne serait-il pas préférable d'abandonner ?

Same

right?? i wonder if maybe everyone feels this way. but then why do we all continue to go on? i cant understand it at all
i always think abt it when watching zombie apocalypse movies or smt like that. its insane that the characters want to live so badly even in that situation. are there real people who actually have a will to live so strong that theyd fight to survive no matter what?

I've tried therapy and medication before, unfortunately nothing's really worked at all. i worry that maybe it didn't work bcus theres not actually anything wrong with me. like if you gave a healthy person cold medicine nothing would happen because they didnt have a cold in the first place. maybe thats why the antidepressants didnt work? because im actually fine?
i do want to try therapy again though. i think that last time i went to therapy i was too stubborn and had too much going on. maybe now that ive had a slight shift in mentality things will work out better? i think i'll try talking to the school counsellor when i go to college this year

I can help by making it worse.

RIGHT
like, if this is what most normal people experience, then what's the point of living like this?? It sounds more like torture.

If it were a zombie apocalypse, the terrifying prospect of becoming a real walking dead would motivate me to keep running. Like, no peace even after death... Sucks

Sounds like a good thing to try.

frfr, why are we forcing ourselves every day to go through life when we all agree that it's hard? even for people who have good lives. having to think about what to eat every day, having to go to work and make money and pay taxes, having to clean your house and mow your lawn, having to wash your hair and brush your teeth. even tiny things like that make life not worth it to me. how can people genuinely want to live? and i don't understand people who say "life is worth living bcus of the things u enjoy" or "if i die ill never get to do this or that or watch this or listen to that" bcus... i mean if im dead i wont know?? so why does it matter?? i cant have any regrets once im dead anyway

and abt the zombie apocalypse, i see it as "id rather kms instead of die a gruesome death at the hands of a zombie" maybe id go die somewhere in the ocean where im unlikely to be infected

It's a little frustrating and annoying that people are constantly trying to motivate you to live, then u don't want this. Because I understand why someone might be grateful for their life. And it's so unfair that they can't do the same and understand that someone doesn't want to live. Like, I often hear from others how hard it is to live right now. So why are they still judging those who don't want to live in these difficult times?

Back to the zombie topic.. I would be willing to go through a long journey of survival only if at the end I could get to a perfect place where I can find peace although if the zombie type is anything other than those slow dudes from "The Walking Dead", i'll probably just kill myself with the first thing that comes to hand. i'm not going to do the hardcore level.
