I just feel like giving up on everything.?
I'm 18, i know most of you will say 18 is too young to be giving up on life. But everything that i've been through i feel like i just want to die. I can't do anything right. I'm not good at anything. I just hate my life so much. Throughout the years (when i was younger) it's just been little things like my mom buying something for my brother and not me or my mom not yelling at me for something but not my brother, but these past few months has been hell for me. I'm Asian btw. and most Asian families don't allow their kids to date outside of the race. My family is like that. I started secretly dating a black guy during my senior year of high school. About 9 months into our relationship, someone snitched on me and told my parents. They kicked me out and i lived with my best friend for 3 months. Around the time that the fall semester started for college, they let me back in the house. Ever since then i swear they have been TRYING to make my life hell. They treat me like i'm still 5 years old but will talk to me and expect me to do things like i'm a grown woman. I really want to move out.. but if i do my whole college tuition goes down the drain. I wont be able to pay for college or anything at all. I'm still with my boyfriend and he tries to make me feel better but it's just the same thing everyday. Sometimes i would wish i had never met him so i could just kill myself already and just stop with the tears and hurt inside. I'm only still alive bc i want to live long enough to have a happy life with my boyfriend with no parents around.. I know this isn't much and it's kinda sloppy and might not make sense.. but i'm really hating life right now..
What does it feel like to give up everything you have now and restart your life?
I've done it a few times. It is a little disconcerting at first, but then again, it's a new challenge, so it's also quite exciting.Some people would feel devastated, but I feel a new energy flowing through me and the creative juices switch to turbocharged mode.You know, I'd hate to be the same person for the rest of my life: that would be a crashing bore!
Do you ever feel like just giving up and not going on with life anymore?
I believe everyone faces these situations in life ! And its very normal to feel so.You have people giving up on studies, giving up on work and giving up on love life.I have felt so on many occasions when things werent going my way!But what changed things was one incident which cleared my thought process.There is an older gentleman (around 70 years) who coaches my son in table tennis. A thorough gentleman always smiling and boosting the confidence of youngsters. The kids used to love his personality and also his method of playing (strong backhand defence). He would come to class everyday, rain or sunshine on a cycle.One day someone told me that his wife was bedridden for several years due to high sugar and had her leg amputated. His wife died recently. His daughter also had a congenital problem and was bedridden.However he never talked much about them and used to cheerfully do his job , i guess that was his diversion. Infact he loved table tennis and he was able to detach himself from his problems and do what he does best.But what this incident taught me was, when you face challenges just look at people who have had difficulties much worse than yours and be grateful you still have what you have. For every person thinking of quitting you will see 10 more people who are facing adversities much worse but refuse to quit.I have seen people struggling so much in life that iam thankful i have what i have. You will never regret life
Do you ever feel like giving up on life?
Like nothing is worth it Whats the point of living? When every day is just more fvcked up then the day before How do you go on? Do you want to go on? sometimes I feel like I don't When nothing is going your way what do you do? I only had one friend who really understood me and 2 weeks ago she went to camp and changed... I feel like I have no one that understands me
What does it mean when you feel like everything is going wrong and you just feel like giving up?
When everything seems to be going wrong for you, when you are at that fork in life where there seems to be no road ahead of you, it is a blessing in disguise.New beginnings occur during unfortunate events. Losing your house, losing your job, and getting divorced is a loss of things in order for you to self reflect and begin a course in a new direction. The saying it was never meant to be is not a loss of opportunity or a failed dream, it is simply a different future. Life is a continuum and it never stops. As long as you breath and think, forces around you will be working to shape your life. Be bold but be receptive. Listen to the opinion of others and be open minded about your future. All things are possible, some things are good for you, and you've been given the choice to figure out what you want. So set a goal, aim for a mark, and continue marching through the series of unfortunate events. You never know where you will end up.Keep your head up and wish you clarity.
Sometimes I feel like giving up but I just can’t. What would be your advice for me?
I'm certain that everyone, yeah, pretty much everyone at some point their life has felt that way…you know, when you feel nothing ever goes right, will ever go right. That's the essence of what it is you're saying.Sadly, an unnerving number of people go ahead, listening to those feelings and acting on them.Here's my advice to you:You don't have the right. It was never given to you feel like, “What the hell is the point? I might as well just throw in the towel and get it over with.”It's tough sometimes. It really is. Seems impossible to go one step further in life, like it's harder to go than give up.So I'm glad you said, “But I just can't.” Good for you!In my life, and I'm being really honest here, I've taken some huge hits, real body blows that left me on the ropes, gasping.But here I am telling you something that's pretty simple: You don't have the right. It's that simple thought which carried me thru. The universe didn't come into creation solely to allow depressed, broken hearted people to just quit like that.If you'll just believe, really believe and have some faith, things will get better. I truly think you'll find they will.After all, if you care to view it this way, the universe has brought you and I together for this brief moment simply to have this message passed on. So hang tough. I promise you you'll make it and be fine and better for it.
I feel like giving up on life and just not bother anymore... HELP I need Motivation!?!?
Well you are not the only one who goes through these kinds of emotions. We all go through them at several points in our lifetime. Well I think you should just continue to study and give it your best shot. Not turning up for the exam would just undermine all the efforts and pains you have gone through to give this exam. Channelise all your energies on the effort but dont think about the result or consequence. Irrespective of the results when you look back at this moment you should get the feeling of content that you gave it your best shot. Nothing of value comes back luck. Its one by pain and sacrifice. I would say prepare as much as possible and make sure you sleep well. Dont strain yourself on the Sunday nite. Sleep early wake up fresh on Monday morning. Worst case you wont do well. Hell.. give it your best shot. you worry about the result when the result comes through. Not giving the exam is not the same as failing in the exam. I would always prefer failing in an exam instead of not giving an exam. Atleast I will know where i went wrong to give it next time. Thats how I have gone ahead with my education. Believe me, success or failure we always learn something out of it (infact even the more with failure). Anyways all the best. And keep a cool mind
