Are you different?

Question

Do you think that you are like everyone else? Do you think that you're not? What makes you special. I'm depressed, suicidal and unsure of every decision I've ever made, I do not regret, I do not judge, I just am, and it makes no sense.

Answer 1

I am VERY different, but I like it that way. I can undertand becoming frustrated with it, as some people don't understand and would rather ridicule than become educated. Don't regret things you've done; you can't change it and worrying over it will only make you unhealthy. Personally, the hardest thing for me to overcome thus far has been accepting the parts about me that I cannot change such as race, skin color, and past choices. Even though it was diffucult, realizing that I had to live with these things no matter what, and learning how to be proud of them was a huge weight lifted off my shoulders. Hope this helps, keep your head up!!

Answer 2

No, I don't think I'm like everyone else and I honestly don't want to be. I love being different because of the way I act, what I do, what my hobbies are..etc. What would be the point if every girl out there looks like a bad copy of Barbie? Have you ever noticed that? We all want to fit in but then we're denying who we are by doing so.
This is probably your problem-that you don't fit in into a certain category. At least, not completely. That's no reason to be depressed or suicidal or unsure of every decision you've made. So what if some of the things you do may seem strange or odd? It's not like everyone is perfect. And, not to sound like some cheesy ad, you're your own person. Screw everyone else and what they think...If you still have problems with your choices then maybe its because you're making those that you know are wrong. If so, then just go with your conscious and do what is right. Just do what's right. Just do it.

Answer 3

I am a TOTAL alien. It is the only explaination that makes any sense. Because there is NO WAY I can be like, anything like, 99.9% of the people that I encounter/meet. I am also quite often very depressed and too, suicidal. I fantasize about getting leukemia or some other horrible disease, and I start smiling! Isn't that sick!? I hate this place most of the time. I want to go home! I know it is farfar away and will take forever to get there....

Answer 4

I am very different, and often quite proud of it, but it gets lonely sometimes. I have fought off depression all my life, and I too have been suicidal and unsure of everything. You will be ok, hang on, you will get through this and become a SURVIVOR, a stronger person able to give strength to others in life. You will not know where that strength comes from, but it is from deep within you. You have much to offer the world, you affect 10 other people and each of them affect 10 other people and on and on, until you actually have an affect on hundreds of people.

It makes sense, even if you can't see it right now. You are a worthy person, worthy of being loved and worthy of being you.

Answer 5

I'll bet your in highschool.

I'll tell you a secret. Life goes on after highschool.


Yes. I am different. Sometimes I don't feel like I am supossed to be where I am. Even with my friends, sometimes I feel alone and completely different.

I've recently been thinking about life itself and where we are. I really don't know if it makes me feel better or worse, but I see myself and life itself a little differently now. I'm going to write you a little bit of a song by Monty Python. It's about our universe. I don't know if it will make you feel better, or worse. But it reminds me how small we really are, and how much nothing we do (or don't do) is really going to make much of a difference.

Just remember that your standing on a planet that evolving, revolving at 900 miles an hour.
It's orbiting at 19 miles a second, so it's reckoned. A sun that is the source of all our power.

The sun, you and me, and all the stars that we can see, are travelling at a million miles a day.
In an outer spiral arm at 40,000 miles an hour, of the galaxy we call the Milky Way.

Our galaxy itself contains 100 billion stars. It's 100 thousand lightyears side to side.
It bulges in the middle, 16,000 lightyears thick, but out by us it's just 3000 light years wide.

Answer 6

...when I was depressed and suicidal, I used to think that I was different. I wasn't like everyone else. Maybe because these feelings are not normal. There's nothing normal about having a desire to die (and I mean this in all earnest.) After blood tests, my doctor determined that I was depressed due to low functioning thyroid. Now life is fantastic, and I can't believe that I waited soooo long...(20 years) to correct the problem. You may consider seeing your doc, and getting some coaching from a professional psych worker. I understand...good luck.

Answer 7

Yes you are different and God Delights in that fact he made you different then your sister or brother or friends.
To be depressed is to allow someone else to have your life and you no longer own it. Break Free and Live and happiness is assured woman. Reach out to the one whom loves you the most. God Almighty, The Son of God Jesus. The Family of God who desires that you be a member of that family and never again be afraid of life. Be of Good cheer woman, for God has found you. Now all you have to do is talk to him and read his words and change your mind about him and admit you can’t do it alone. He has a plan for you and it starts with Living to your fullest and brightest. It is the truth. He loves you so much he allowed his son to die in your place to give you life.
(John 3:16) For God So Loved the World that he gave his only begotten son that none should parish from the earth but have everlasting life. Come on! There is a whole Universe for us to play in Forever!

Answer 8

I think that I'm somewhat different from everyone else. I am who I am and I think I'm different because I'm actually ok with that. But nobody's completly different. There'll always be scores of people just like you somewhere, maybe you're just in the wrong place.

I used to be like that. Largely because of persecution from those around me. But eventually I decided just to say "**** it" and started doing things my way whether the people I was with liked it or not. Well they didn't, but as soon as they left, I found people like me that I could actually tolerate and love.
I felt alone and depressed with "friends" and felt at home and alike with "strangers" But now my way, and their way is just one way and I'm quite happy about that. Now as origional as I can be, I still fit right in.

So that's why I think I'm special, or at least special enough. And that's good enough for me.

Answer 9

If you're young and suicidal, all you really need to do is not kill yourself. It's a pretty common feeling.

If you're old and suicidal, all you really need to do is not kill yourself. It's a pretty common feeling.

The only people who might be justified in killing themselves are child molesters who can't stop and people who are terminally ill and facing an undignified natural death.

At any rate, in your case it's probably a permanent solution to a temporary problem. And, if the only reason you asked is because you wanted some attention, then you got some!

Answer 10

There is no shame in asking for help! Please get counseling &
some anit-depressants if u must. Because some people need it
and some people can get over funk moods pretty quick. If you
have been feeling this way 2 weeks or longer, you may have
"clinical depression". I have had to get some help, and I don't
care what anybody else thinks. It will save your life and U WILL
be yourself again. There are so many good times for u and u
do have a purpose, but u have to find out what it is, we all do.
It takes COURAGE to get help, it is a cowards way to quit.
By getting help....you are helping yourself. Please get help!!
Good Luck and Pray for healing. Take Care.......
