I've read enough. A 23 year old that's acting as if life is over and an 18 year devastated her crush doesn't like her. This site has lost some of its validity for me. I can't help feel people are taking the piss with some of these threads.
Suicidal ideation is suicidal ideation. It doesn't matter the age or the reason. This site is for people who want to ctb, not for people with a certain threshold of pain tolerance. We are not the same. Some people have it better than others and our reasons to be here do not have to be the same reasons as yours. This is a place for troubled people who seek help or a place of understanding. If all of us were smart and beautiful and our lives would have been all pink and cool we would not be here in the firsr place.

Aging is one of the most horrible things, the brain weakens and becomes bad, the body becomes ugly, dreams and hopes disappear, emotions and life become bland, it's just excruciating, every birthday is a mental torture

It's more if you age before your time, like me ie. get sick in the prime of your life, that's the tragedy. Death and aging are unavoidable so they aren't too bad, you can share those experiences with others. If you are sick from a young age and ostracized or excluded from society/dating you are in hell on earth.

I think people should understand that OP seems to be severely depressed, and that all the advice that we give such as setting goals, trying out different jobs etc. fall on deaf ears because OP Already feels like she is late in reaching the list of achievements that society demands from us and which she internalized. IMO

I'm almost 30. My health is already getting worse each day, as opposed to continually improving or stagnating. I feel like an old man in a young body. Definitely a big reason I am planning to CTB.

I see why you might think this and I get the frustration. This site has a lot of users who are younger and at a different place in their lives.

Same. Every time I see old people I want to kill myself. I am 27 I don't want to see my 30s. 20s will be my last decade.
