Been a rough month, Ive honestly considered suicide.

[Paul Conners]

Hello all,

First of all let me say this is not a call for help. Im not looking for advice on whether or not I should kill myself.

The truth is I need to get this off my chest:

In the last month I have lost my girlfriend that I love, and Ive also been fired and lost my amazing job. Its been a Fckin Sh1tty month and I really feel exhausted and helpless now.

I feel guilty over hurting my girlfriend and I know Ill never get her back.
I worked hard at my job, which was my dream job, and out of the blue I WAS FIRED TWO DAYS AGO.

iI just feel like crap and my entire life is becoming a trainwreck.

I feel like Im a nice person and dont deserve this trainwreck in my life.

I probably wont kill myself, but its definitely something to consider.

I also feel helpless to apply for a new job. I just cant do it right now.

I know this is probably a bit cliché to say, but just remember that people out there do care for you. And if I may add, so does God.

We all have hard times in our lives. Some more than others. But the important thing is that we focus on the things we can change, and not lose track of ourselves worrying about that which we can't. Stressing and getting yourself worked up over things like this will only cause you further anguish. Analyse what went wrong and what you can do to move forward, just avoid dwelling too much for now.

Another thing I find is good to alleviate stress is to take up an activity. Gym or sport are great because you can really let yourself out in a physical way. You will probably want to avoid sitting at home feeling sorry for yourself, so try and keep yourself occupied. If you really do feel suicidal then you must seek help. There isn't anything wrong with doing so. It takes a bigger man to acknowledge a problem than it does to pretend it doesn't exist.

Suicide is a terrible thing, and you need to put things into perspective. You're posting on the Internet, and have had a job until recently, so you probably aren't going to be without food, water, or shelter any time soon. You are in a privileged situation, so try to think about ways to come back from this and keep moving forward.

Sometimes when things feel like they are falling apart, they are actually falling into place.

This is what I keep reminding myself of every day. I lost my job too. I wasn't fired, the company I worked for closed up shop - so there is absolutely no chance of getting my old job back. I put my heart and soul into that job. It was my dream job. I now have to start all over. I am in my late 40's, I have never been unemployed before and I am a sole self provider. Being unemployed is unbelievably boring - and often very depressing. But I keep reminding myself of that statement because it gets me through the day. It keeps me keep'n on.

yah, life is sweet, then you go bald. Chicks leave you because you have no self esteem and they notice other girls are interested in you (this last point really turns girls off because they are mental sluts). Don't jump off any bridges yet.
