My depression, which I've lived with for too long, has reached the point of mania and I am exhausted. I don't like to do anything at all anymore and I hate every aspect of my life (except for posting on bluelight).
Just to go to work I have to fake my whole personality in order to even look like someone who isn't thinking about suicide constantly. And I'm getting worse at it. People tip toe around me, make sure to limit any conversation around me at all, and generally look at me like someone who is an object of pity and frustration just because I can't be "normal."
People try to reach out to me all the time, but I don't think they understand how the depression that causes the frustration that causes migraines, skaking hands, insomnia, lack of focus has turned me into a very hateful person.
What used to be social anxiety is now just pre-emptive disgust for the notion that anyone is going to force me to have a conversation with them at all. It is making my thought patterns muddled and sometimes I can't remember basic things or even function in an organized fashion. This is almost 24 hrs per day. I don't know what to do. All I think about is when I'm going to "do it" and lately I've even been thinking about notes to leave which will hurt loved ones and gf the worst, just because I want them to hurt. I don't know what happened to me, but I feel like a dog who is just being beaten over and over again day and night until he's just all fucked up and no longer a good dog. I'm just docile now because I expect to feel abused. Abused as a kid, abused as a teen, now my mind is turning on me to fill the missing void of abuse it looks like. I'm constantly having a nervous breakdown, and at this point I don't believe it gets better because I've had it for too long and I seriously see myself regretting it later if I don't just end it now. What should I do to at least make my life less immediately painful before I punch out?
