Man. Reading the responses makes me feel a bit guilty. I'm genuinely pretty alright these days and have been for years. Part of it is that I'm likely a bit older than the average farms resident with all that attends that.

I do hope that those of you that are feeling down will stick it out. It gets better, I promise.

Don't feel guilty, just be grateful for your life being alright and make the most of it. Despite my own issues I am truly glad that people can confidently say that they are happy with their lives.

What makes you suicidal? If you have nothing to live for, what is the obstacle to try and just make it big or fail? Can you yourself explain or put words to it? I am legit curious. I have always struggled to understand it. Not meaning that I am not in distress, but this is just not part of my package.
Putting it into words makes me feel like a whiny bitch who has no reason to feel as bad as I do, but essentially, I'm terrified that I'm simply never going to be good enough to compete in my chosen career field after sinking years and college debt into it, that AI will take my job, and that everything I've worked for meant absolutely nothing. If I can't be good enough to do a job I enjoy instead of being stuck in a monotonous 9-5 job, then I either want to not be alive or I want to be lobotomzied into an unfeeling, uncaring NPC husk so I don't have to constantly be thinking about what a failure of an adult I am.

I'm not going to do anything crazy, and I have a good support network. I'm grateful for the people in my life. I just really need to get my ass in gear about finding a good therapist.
 
Not really, no. Every day I long for the sweet release of death and do frequently have suicidal ideation, but I can’t bring myself to go through with anything for private reasons that have to do with family.

Trust me, I try to find good in things, but man… the blackpills changed to doompills and I don’t see any way out of it right now.
 
I think most of us men, if we're honest with ourselves, get that urge. It would be nice just to tell everyone to fuck off and live in a cabin in the woods sometimes. I think we all just need time to ourselves sometimes, away from everything.

To go full powerlevel, it's also the life I grew up in, and worked so hard to actually make money outside of.

It's more than ideal, I actually know what to expect. It's just a radical shift backwards. And at same time, I just cannot project myself in any other future right now. Like any.

At least for a while, it will stay a dream, but when I find someone who understands and want in the journey, I am in.
 
Not happy.

I'm dealing with niggers and gypsies all day every day. Hoping to cut the gypsies out of my life later this year, but I'm stuck with the niggers for the foreseeable future.

I am thankfully isolated from troons for the most part.
 
I'm both oddly

I've lived a great life that most would envy. Full of fun, love and excitement. But it's coming to a end pretty soon (I'm not sick, just old) and I'm oddly melancholy about that.

I'm rather bored honestly, I've done everything I wanted to do and life now is lonely (my wife passed away and most of my friends as well) and very humdrum to a point that I considered a early exit but decided I didn't want to pain my family with that.

All I do now is shit post on the internets and go shopping once a day for my dinner. And even that is getting hard as my body is just not up to walking around much anymore and my eyes are failing. Plus those bastards took my drivers license away (in my defence those pedestrians really should have gotten out of my way crosswalk or no crosswalk) so I either walk slowly to where I want to go or bother my family for a lift which is annoying for all involved. Fuck taxi's I won't touch em, crazy ass foreign drivers ain't my thing.

But I did live a great life so I'm happy about that. I did awesome things, loved and married a truly amazing woman and gorged myself fully on the smorgasbord of life but that's over now and all I have are my memories of those times so that's rather bittersweet.

So I guess...both?
 
Sometimes, I just want to liquidate everything I have, buy land and fuck off. It would not even be hard.
I can absolutely relate to this - not so much because I'm unhappy, but the idea of being completely away from all the shit that being around other people entails is pretty appealing. Hell - I bought a 4x4 solely so that I can get to those sorts of places and experience it for a week or so at a time - just chuck some shit in the bed and go away to enjoy some fishing and reading and not have to put up with anyone else for a bit.

The older I get, the more I understand why Uncle Ted lived how he lived and did what he did.

I'm not happy but if you talk to people who I talk to semi-regularly they would say I'm happy despite my circumstances.

I feel like I'm doing alright. Now and then some annoying shit comes up but overall feeling pretty chilled out. Used to be depressed as fuck and super anxious. IDK what really stopped that besides just taking most things less seriously and not giving a shit. Even in the most nightmarish wage-slavey job I feel like you can find some joy in it if you just talk to people. Sometimes you get along other times it's like a lolcow but face to face lol I'm always entertained regardless.
 
Not really, mostly based on where I'm stuck living in the bad part of town for the foreseeable future due to family anchors. But it has graduated from being super depressed to just dead inside. Commute's way longer, jobs aren't great, and I feel like I'm missing out on memories. I have really cool friends I hardly see, and do really cool things sometimes, but am surrounded by grumpy retirees and addicts. Or I meet a local celebrity that's drawn to me, hardly ever see them.

Most people out here suck, the ones who don't tend to leave (or only come home to sleep), or live in the better part of the city and come out here a couple times a month at most.
 
I'm not miserable or depressed. Can't afford to be.
 
If you can't answer "yes" and feel genuine, then I believe this question is one best left unanswered. As long as you worry about being happy, paradoxically you won't be. Defining yourself as unhappy is like slamming the door shut in your own face.

At any rate I can definitely say I don't feel hopeless. I have many dreams.
