@Tryptamine, I know you have been going through a tough phase but fortunately you are the only one that can change this. Listen;
This will pass, that's certain. Everything changes. Why don't you visit a hospital and offer to volunteer,
You could go to a hospital and you'll see plenty of people giving their last drop of hope to live for another day.
People who did not ask for the conditions they have. Go and visit the child's cancer area. They always need people there. And you'll feel good that you have done that.
You can't, or shouldn't simply give up. You are young and have a life ahead of you.
I'm telling you all of this because you brought up this issue in the other thread.
I've already mentioned I've been through this experience and it does not matter how you do it but you can never be sure of how dark, dry and cold the other side could be. I have had an experience like that 8-9 years ago and because of this spiritual world I can tell you something makes our instincts fight to be alive whether or want it or not.
People who OD will vomit while unconscious and a lot of them simply wake up after being in coma with a lot of new physical problems because you instinctively want to live. I have come back from the dead after being in a coma for a couple of days.
It was the darkest time I've ever lived up to this minute. And I made it as 'impossible' as it seemed I made it through, with some damages but I did survive. That shows how humans can be.
Trust me, nothing will give you guarantees that the other side will be any easier. Nobody knows, but there's a common knowledge from those like me who made it back who can affirm it's all dark, cold and lonely.
Do something about your life. Don't just expect things will just change although they will at one point. You seem smart and I can understand how you feel now, but I also know it's possible to change. Don't give up. There's no good endings when you chose the other option. Not from my perspective and experience in this particular case.
Take care!

Erik
