lately, i don't give a crap about anything. i'm fat, ugly and lonely. i have no friends and hate life most days. i've been on drugs and saw a therapist. i joined and gym and haven't been in 2+ months. i went for about 3 months before i stopped. i hate my sister living with me and her smelly guinea pigs. i need a reason for living and right now, it's simply to pay the bills i have. that's the only reason i go to work. other than that i simply lounge around, watch tv, sleep and read. my life sucks. i don't want to take pills anymore. i want to know why i'm like this. what have i done i another life to make me this way - sad/depressed since i can remember (as far back as 3rd grade) whatever.. don't tell me to believe in god, cuz i don't. don't tell me to get out a do stuff, cuz i've tried that, didn't work. don't tell me to get therapy, tried, told me she couldn't help me anymore..... life sucks. time to get ready for work.

i've been through this myself. i read the book captivating. one piece of advice i totally loved and still use to this day, is once a week, (or however often you want) write a love letter to yourself. put your name at the top of the paper, and only write good things that you have to say about yourself. do not put yourself down in your letters, because it would defeat the purpose of trying to get better. this really helped me, and i hope you might try it, even if you only try it once. even if you can only write one sentence to start, that is a huge step! take care, things will get better once you start to love yourself.

I think you need to take charge of your own happiness. Don't look for something outside yourself to fix things. Work from the inside out.
There's a leper in India starving right now who's STILL more cheerful than you are, because he knows attitude is what makes up life, not what happens to us.

Life does indeed suck, anyone that says it doesn't is lying and not a realist.
If you want a friend just mail me, i'm sure we can compare our sucky lives and manage to get a joke out of it somewhere. :)
