想死不能 - 想活不能

Before me is a box of meto, several boxes of propranolol, painkillers, and an unopened SN container. Right now, I would like to get it over with. Life keeps giving me the final push, yet I am a coward.

I have no desire left for a life full of struggle, but here I am clinging to a listless existence like a baby clinging to a thin blanket in a cheap ass pram that's barely shielding them from the blustering wind and cold.

There's nothing left, my dreams are over. My health is too poor. I was falling asleep during a university class yesterday, in intense pain, and all I could do was helplessly try to hold my eyelids open, fighting the ever present bashing from my body which has no awareness of the artifical world we live in that demands strict schedules and bullshit affairs.

I can't keep up. I've lost my support. At one point in my life, I thought I really could overcome all the abuse, having a developmental disability, growing up in a bad area with little opportunity... It would all be water under the bridge, because that is the messaging drilled into us over and over. I truly thought I would become a scientist. Peering in from the outside, you'd think I was successful because I shower everyday, make my bed, and have a first class honors in my modules thus far.

No one sees the pain, the torment, the never ending fatigue which makes it hard to interact with others, to focus, to concentrate, never being taken seriously because you don't have cancer or something fatal that is guarenteed to kill you. My body is dependent on laxatices now and I cant even eat without the horrible bloating and pressure to remind me that nothing works as it should.

Some days aren't as bad as others, but that just means I can function at the bare minimum, like attending 2 hours of classes and showering. I don't have a social life. The idyllic university experience where you go out and party with friends, chat shit at the pub, and travel, is so far away from my reality.

I don't have a single friend on my course, which is already extremely small and cliquey. My only friend in my lead me on then groped me in my sleep, played rough with me when I said no, had sex with me when I was severely drunk, and abandoned me, then boasts how happy he is not to be involved in my mess anymore. He can play football, go to the cinema, travel across the world with his wealthy family, go to nightclubs, parties, whatever, with no hesitations. A person like that would never understand the solitude of a cripple like me. He is popular and well liked.

The prevailing message is that I should be able to function with no support whatsoever and that I lack constitution for feeling this way. That I am depressed and unwell in the head. There is no point in talking to anyone outside of this forum because they simply don't get it. My own housemates think it's as simple as going to a nightclub and screwing people, finding a "chill job" and cutting it on my own.

Before my illness was this severe, I did have a full time job, which I had to quit. During that time, I slept in a shoddy apartment with roaches crawling the walls, with no comfort except a cheap mattress on the floor, as I was too weak to carry a frame for it up the stairs. I ate frozen food everyday because I had no energy to cook. I had no friends. During work, I would find any opportunity I could to try and hide somewhere and sit down because my legs would be on fire. I could take twice the amount of paracetamol you're supposed to and would still be in agony every single day.

That was not sustainable. Yet, this is the reality for sick and disabled people who have no family and can't qualify for any sort of benefits. You are forced to work until you die or become homeless. I'm at the stage where I can barely take care of myself at the level which is expected of a young adult. I have to work fully remote at my part time job because everything is too taxing for me. Caffeine is the only way I survive.

My ex partner is gone and my best friend is out partying in the club while I'm at home in bed about to scream my head off because it seems I've gotten another infection or virus which has left me in horrible pain with a fever. I can't afford to be sicker because I will be unable to finish an assignment worth a huge chunk of one of my modules.

All I do is rot here alone all day and no one comprehends how horrible it is, wanting to do things and being incapacitated. When I'm out trying to do things I often feel a moment of tranquility, a wave of, "Ah, so THIS is what normies experience" only for it to usually be snapped out of abruptly by my IBS, fatigue, pain, or other random health issue like freezing to death, allergies, nausea, etc.

I haven't had a single moment in years where I felt comfortable. I lay in bed not because I enjoy it or feel rested, but because I have full knowledge forcing activity will make me worse and result in me going right back to that bed. Even when I was doing drugs with my best friend, pure ectsasy, I ended up having some bizarre seizures where I could do nothing but tremble and convulse, unable to move my jaw or lips. So even pleasurable experienced become tainted by my defective body.

All I can do is cry because I'm being forced to apply for summer jobs and I know that I won't be able to handle a single one of them. I'm too weak. It's impossible for me to stick to a sschedule due to the unpredictable nature of my conditions, yet society demands it. Nothing but due dates, deadlines, and consistent shift patterns that are incompatible with rapidly changing health issues. My dream was to be like makise kurisu, but I'm more akin to the trash bin where all the defunct gelnannas get tossed in.

I really need the courage to end this. I am so ready. Please give me the courage to end this hell once and for all.

I'm so sorry you're in so much physical and emotional pain. I feel I'm barely hanging on myself. However, if you are indeed sick with a virus or other wouldn't that mean higher risk of vomitting/being unwell? Please think about everything carefully.

Having a invisible illness whether it's physical, mental, or both is a death sentence in this society because you aren't seen as disabled but you also can't help yourself.

I hope you find your peace in whatever decision you decide to make and I'm sorry for all of the terrible things that happened to you while others live carefree lives. As much as I don't believe in a afterlife I still hope that there's still something genuinely good after we die and I hope you find what you're looking for on the other side.

That is definitely too much for a person to handle. In my opinion i feel you need and you deserve to have good friends and supporters.
I agree the world is full of demands and deadlines. And its always expected. No matter how severe ones health may be.
I feel you have a hard working heart and that should never go unnoticed.
The way that guy treated you was horrible and he needs to have his teeth kicked in.
Im always here with an open ear. Nobody especially you should ever have to go through life being treated like that ever

I feel this so much. It's very difficult to get disability, especially if you're young. I've been living off savings from when I could work, but that's almost gone.

I hope things get better, whatever you choose to do.

I can relate. I also have a physical condition that directly impairs my ability to do what I used to love, and it's transformed what used to be a great source of passion for me into an unbearable reminder of how unsalvageable my situation is. I don't even know what I could say to ease your pain, life is terrible and meaningless, and the only people who can succeed in it are the ones who are lucky to not have to deal with debilitating mental or physical disadvantages. I hope you can find the strength to end your suffering.

Keep calm, Kuri, obviously I can't feel exactly how you feel, but if I were you I would reflect in the future, in what aspect could I change or if it would remain the same, and thus know if it is worth continuing with this
I wish you the best and that you feel good about whatever decision you make.

I am sorry, Kuri. I am sorry you feel yourself standing on the edge right now, with the means in front of you - so near to you, yet feeling trapped by a life that continues to cruelly push and prod you, bringing you closer to the brink each time.

I must tell you this: You are no coward. You are courageous, kind and resilient. Many people would have crumbled long ago if forced to face a fraction of your pain. You persevered, despite everything you have endured and continue to experience. It's okay to be broken, it's okay to be scared of death, it's okay to be afraid of life for that matter. Whether you stay or leave, you are brave in my eyes - not because you are fearless, but because of the wonderful, sweet woman you consistently prove yourself to be, even in the face of suffering that shatters your soul.

I am sorry that your body has deteriorated so devastatingly at such a young age. Having various chronic illnesses and disabilities myself, I understand how it feels when this whittles away at your will to stay in this world, and robs you of your goals and dreams. I understand what it is like to be imprisoned by your own flesh, to be restrained by invisible shackles that no-one else seems to notice: Health truly is a crown that only the sick can see. I understand having any fleeting spark of hope snuffed out ad nauseam, as the reality of your situation comes crashing down like an avalanche. I understand falling further and further behind, while everyone else sprints down the track and expects you to keep up, as they neglect the advantages they were afforded and the head start they were given.

It is tortuous to endure torment that no-one else sees, understands or even acknowledges, to navigate new and existing symptoms and struggles unsupported. I am sorry that you are surrounded by privileged peers who cannot comprehend your pain, imparting tone-deaf "advice" instead of providing empathy and support. It is exhausting being expected to do the exact same things that able-bodied, healthy and neurotypical people do with no obstacles and no assistance, to be assumed to be "fine" because we manage to muddle through one moment to the next. We are expected to thrive in a society that was never built for the disabled and disadvantaged.

Even in the face of so much hardship and trauma, you have achieved amazing successes: Acquiring incredible grades, showering every day and simply functioning in such a harsh, inherently ableist institution (and world) is no small feat. I am not saying this to patronise you - I fully appreciate the awful agony you have contended with and still do. I say this with admiration, because I recognise as a chronically ill individual how much effort and energy this must have required from you each second, including energy reserves that were already running on empty.
No matter how critical and cynical ignorant individuals - such as students and professors - may be towards you, they are fortunate to not face such catastrophic challenges day after day. The willpower required to withstand your physical and psychological pain and partake in such a competitive course should not be underestimated. I am so proud of you for all of your hard work, dedication and achievements, no matter what happens.

It pains me to see you struggling to simply survive, all while being neglected by those who are supposed to love you and taken for granted by those who were lucky to have you. You deserve so much better than the way family, friends, classmates and former partners have treated you. As I have spent time getting to know you a little, I don't see "trash." I see a true treasure that has been abused, taken advantage of and overlooked by those who could not see your worth.

I appreciate the complexity of your circumstances and the depth of your despair. I wish I could take away all of your suffering somehow. You know I am here if there is anything I can do for you - whether that is time and space away from your environment here or wherever you want to go, or simply a friend who will listen to you, respect your autonomy and stay with you no matter what you decide. I just wanted to remind you of how much I value you and how much I care.

I'm sorry you have to deal with all this pain. Health problems can be awful, our bodies are capable of torturing us. I know it can be dreadful when things are hopeless and I know that it is hard to carry on when you are suffering so much. Being unable to ctb does not make you a coward as of course there is the survival instinct, the survival instinct is determined to keep us suffering. Whatever happens, I wish you the best.

I can completely understand where you're coming from. I too am in an inescapable situation from a health-perspective, and I deteriorate so much with each given day that it's a wonder I'm still standing. Whenever I look in the mirror I want to vomit because I look like I was worked on by the Walking Dead's SFX department.

But as much agony as I'm in, and as much revulsion I hold toward the state of my physical form, survival instinct always gets in my way. It is one of the cruelest features of evolution. Despite all of my preparations I couldn't follow through in the end. And I hated myself in that moment more than anything. But we shouldn't hate ourselves - none of this is our fault. It's a society that leaves us alone & to rot with no dignified means of escape when we're driven to such extremes. A society that believes it's humane to euthanize a dying dog in the comforts of its own home but leaves a dying man to agonize for hours all alone before finally pulling the trigger to end his own life.

I'm so sorry you have to be forced to endure and endure and endure SO much fathomless pain. And to be all alone in your mind, tormented by the knowledge that technically you could leave at any time, but are likely held back by an intense instinctually-driven fear of the unknown & simultaneously a yearning for what could've been.
(At the very least, that's how it has faired for myself and others).

I wish desperately that I could help you. I do so more than anything, but I lack even the capability to help myself. I don't know what the answer is for forsaken individuals like ourselves.

You have a beautiful mind and a beautiful soul and nobody like you should ever be condemned to senseless & ceaseless suffering. Not now, not ever.
