Sometimes I get so depressed I feel like taking a few (dozen) Oxys and just letting it all go. I hate everything about myself; I hate that I'm gay, I hate that I'm skinny, I hate that I'm ugly, I hate that I'm poor. Where is the joy in a life like that? I'm just scared of what would happen. If there is a Hell, I know that's where I'd end up. So I'm really confused. What should I do?

Oh, Will, you poor thing. I'm so sorry you feel this way about yourself. The fact is, you've been lied to. Many, many, many times. You are not ugly, first of all, and I don't care what you look like. The other things can be totally positive if you'd let them! Well, except the poor thing, but hell, that's not written in stone, now is it? As for you being gay, that is no reason at all to hate yourself. Don't you think God knows the damage that is being done by you repressing your feelings like that? Why do you think He would approve of that? He wouldn't, that's why. His flunkies are the ones taking it to a wierd place, and they piss a lot of people off. But don't take their words to heart, since you can find your place in this world without them. The bottom line is, don't kill yourself! Never, ever, ever! You have too much to offer and the world has too much to lose for you to do that! Whether you see it now or not, you're worth having around, and I want to see you on this board contributing the way I know you can. (Your question is worded much more eloquently than 98% of the junk in here, so I know you're smarter than the average bear.) I'm looking for a phone number or something for you right now, and I'll post it on here when I find it. Don't go anywhere!
OK, well, go figure. There's a 1-800-SUICIDE. Glib, I know, but give it a try. You might change your mind, which I know you want to.

Accepting yourself as you are is the first step to stop those feelings of depression. You are not ugly if you don't look like a supermodel so what not many people do. If you think you're to thing take an appetite enhancer or just try eating foods with more calories until you gain some weight.
We all have problems but none of them is worth killing yourself over. Seek some counseling and things will hopefully work themselves out.

Well maybe you should start by making peace with the things you have first!!!
Accept yourself for who and what you are!!!!if you have such a low image what do you think other people will think of you???most of the things u mentioned you can change....but embrace the fact that you are gay..then maybe find a decent job...go to the gym and just have fun!!!!Good luck i hope you find what you are looking for

dear friend, u have to learn to value of ur self...
a Happiness couldn't be measured by anything u' ve felt, but it is more trully like "how u made others happy with ur existence"...
if u keep thinking about the richness, so have u ever thinking about ur health that given by GOD ? thats key of life..
u will do everything if u re a healthy person,...
so makes ur life worth...feel free and try to be a happy person
then all ur problems will disappear...
dont blame ur self why u re a gay, why u re skinny, why this and why that...all those quest might be answered only by ur self, whom u like to be...

First thing to do is hold on to life. It gets better. Do not take action out of desperation. There are counselors and other resources out there who can help you. One day at a time

There is ALWAYS someone worse off than you.
Buck up, and take control of what you can and don't worry about the stuff you can't control.
