Did anyone else used to have a good life?

[Hope:-)]

I did. Now I spend my time lying to try to get last minute meds to help ctb. It's sureeale.

What went wrong for you? For me life never quite worked out, though there have been better times than this.

 

[thebunny]

i did. last may i still had a good life ahead of me and then i ruined it. typical me. so, like you, i spend most of my remaining days planning and preparing out the things i need to ctb next month. crazy how life turns out sometimes lol.

 

[Hollowillow]

I didn't. I ruined it when i finally was given a chance... Won't gave help to undo or more chances.

I was a bit down..not even depressed, and I was encouraged to take medication. It ruined my life. There was one point where I was off it and my life improved but I was always encouraged to go back on it. I couldnt think straight and it devastated my life.x

 

[jodes2]

I had an ok childhood on the whole

If you are off the medication can you function ok, is there any hope in this situation? I did get permanent ringing in the ears from some medication like that I also did not need.

I'm finally able to get it reduced now...I was hospitalised due to the effects of it and now they are gradually taking me off it.. It has devastated too many areas of my life- I live in basically hostel accommodation. It ruined university for me etc. There are other reasons I am ctb- facial injuries, betrayal... :-/

Antidepressants antipsychotics and mood stabilisers. I say this to everyone but avoid medication. However don't come off it suddenly.x

I had a great life until 2020 or better I had a great job that covered all the shortcomings of my life. Then I ruined everything on the social networks. I am now in a job without any possibility to have a real impact, surrounded by mediocre people and loser students. I have had to move from a city with the highest quality of life in europe to a shitty city. There is nothing worse than knowing what success is and losing it all. I am 43 and I have lost the energies to restart from zero. Too tired.

 

[akana]

yes or potential for a beautiful/better life

 

[FrozenMango]

I didn't. I spent my life thinking about appropriate ctb age

 

[foreverfalling]

It wasn't particularly good, but it was bearable and I wasn't thinking of CTB everyday, only perhaps occasionally. But I came to realise that whatever life you had, good or bearable, could be taken away from you in an instant for reasons totally out of your control. It could be illness, accidents, traumatic events or other people. It's mental torture everyday now.

Sorry you have been so negatively affected by medication and people, it is terrible what people will do to each other whether willfully or ignorantly.

 

[Hangnail]

Yup, I made the wrong life-destroying decision and now I'm here.

 

[LaVieEnRose]

Not me.

If you don't mind, what were your symptoms? My life is ruined due to Lamotrigine and Ambien. The symptoms I got were gnarly. Horrific stomach pain, feeling like I needed to crawl out of my skin, and couldn't sleep; it felt like I was wired, among other things. Doctors said it didn't sound like withdrawal or a reaction.

I had medication induced mania and psychosis. Ruined my life. I sympathise with your situation x

I can't believe this is legal. I wish doctors had more knowledge of these drugs and didn't just pass them around like candy. I understand that they can be helpful to some people, but they can also be very damaging.

 

[takemenowpls]

I did as well. Difficult but good. I messed it all up and now I'm paying the price. Soon I will pay the ultimate price and CTB

 

[outrider567]

It was better than good, it was great, but her death turned paradise into purgatory

 

[broken_songbird]

I did for a sec. Childhood, meh. Adulthood, meh. University? Super awesome. I got to peak at 35, which I'm satisfied with. Life after uni? Fuck this shit.

 

[NeverReallyHere]

The worst thing is I had a good life and didn't even know it.

 

[SexyIncél]

There was once or twice, when I felt — KNEW — I was the happiest person in the world

This week I decorated a shotgun with cutesy hearts. It'll blow my mind

 

[Lookingtotalk]

Yes, all the way up to nov of 2021, i messed up by accident, something happened i didnt realize but looking back i was stupid

 

[Astronauta]

Sim, tomei a decisão errada que destruiu minha vida e agora estou aqui.

Eu me sinto como você.
Eu tinha uma vida boa.Fui tomar a vacina da covid19 e minha vida foi arruinada.

Mine is ruined by years of antipsychotic and SSRI, i actually figured out a way and got off the antipsych, but i needed to stay on the SSRI, it had clearly changed my brain chemistry but i STUPIDLY tried again and got fucked. Escaped the anti-psychotic with a mild heart arrythmia that mostly went away but i still developed on the drug, but its still there to this day but i accepted it, the SSRI i KNEW i needed to take it and for some reason tried to get off after 2 prev failed attempts, due to side effects of course, and now my brain is fucked. Some other meds in there too but was able to navigate off them too, still furious, psychiatry should be reserved as like last resort 1-2% of the population like it used to be, fucking awful drugs worst than street drugs in some cases or just as bad.

i didnt realize when i was younger, i wish i did

what happened on social networks, if you dont mind me asking

 

[unnoticed]

i recognized that i have been very loved in my life, and used to have many friends whom i loved so much. i used to love being social, even when i was struggling with major depression since childhood. life was somewhat enjoyable and felt manageable somehow. but now i'm an adult recluse and i'm afraid of my own shadow and self. just absolutely pathetic and weak with no one around me anymore and it's all been my fault.
