I'm sorry for being negative

[SpaceCadet]

Sharing my misery won't help you it will just drag you down that's not what i hope for, my mission if i ever had one is to confort, if i could say the right words and have the power to change our situation i would.

I think honest negativity is better than forcing a happy demeanour. I don't like it when people try to forcefully sugarcoat obviously bad things. I appreciate when someone can admit that something sucks. There's plenty of stuff in life to rightfully complain about, imo.

To me there is nothing wrong with being negative. I believe that there is nothing to be positive about in a world filled with so much suffering. In my case, it makes sense to be negative, I was forced here without choice and I have to endure this miserable life. I wish you the best.

There is nothing wrong at all with expressing the negativity you describe. You should be able to express your true feelings and not feel the need to bottle them up. While the word negativity could be used to describe it, it's really a positive since you're sharing with the reasoning of being open and honest.

Negativity is only bad in other ways that aren't what you are describing. For example, the negativity on Twitter/Reddit/etc. is what I see as true negativity. The intent to be negative to anger and/or demoralize, and bring others down with you on purpose. That is far from what you are doing and don't associate your "negativity" with that.

There really should be two different words for negativity, but unfortunately there is just one that covers a broad range.

How dare you be negative on a forum about suicide. Absolutely scandalous! >=[

Its ok to share here. I would rather see someone be honestly negative than FAKE happy. I hate fake people. Share away Space Cadet, we are all here for each other.

This user passed away.

I wouldn't worry. I prefer that type of honesty over false optimism, that when discovered to be false only causes a crash in mood for others.

My heart jumped out of my chest for a moment, thinking @SpaceCadet is alive and okay. I am sad to see that this is an older post.

Your goal to provide comfort demonstrates how caring you were towards others here. RIP
