Do you feel like no one needs you?

[somiseriously]

I feel like no one needs me — not my parents, not my sister, and I don't have friends, but even if I did, I doubt they would need me. And I, too, don't need myself. So all in all, there is nothing tethering me to this world. But if I'm going to die, I want to die saving my loved ones or something. But I feel like I can't hold on anymore; maybe if I was needed, things would be different. At this point, I don't even want a second chance at life because it would be such a hassle, and I don't want to be born again or live again. I really hope there's nothing after death; I just want peace

Yeah
Everyone wants to be independent nowadays, and this disconnection is the price we pay

 

[locustspawning]

pretty frequent thought for me. i'm not at the stage in life where anyone would be truly dependent on me anyways, but i do get the feeling that i'm not liked enough by anyone for there to be a real impact if i leave (besides my immediate family). the few online friends that i have will get by just fine in my absence, not that i'd want them to grieve but it is sad to think about just how little i matter to people

 

[kipper]

it's a feeling so constant that i sometimes feel i was built to have this feeling as a permanent setting. i have some people in my life, but it feels as though i never stay anyone's priority like they are to each other. everything moves along so fast.

I don't have any friends. My parents were such idiots to have me by mistake; that bastard of my dad's is going to have a child with some fat bitch, and I'm sure that kid's going to have a better life than me, and my mother is always mad and bitch, and is can literally tell she doesn't love me at all. Besides, I'd rather not speak to her anymore, and I hardly ever speak to any of my relatives either. I've only got my grandad on WhatsApp, and I only speak to him once a month we just exchange three messages and that's it. What a shitty life I got

I have 2 older siblings that have done well for themselves overall. One just moved out of state with their partner and the other one works for a very big oil and natural gas company. All I've been good for is looking after their dogs when they go on trips. Otherwise they don't really need me.
i'm fortunate that they love and care about me, but they don't need me.

My dad has been on his own for a long time after him and my mom got divorced. He's for the most part done fine but he has to pay about a grand in alimony to my mom and I think he regrets having married my mom to begin with.

Unfortunately I need to rely on my mom a lot because for a myriad of reasons I can't live on my own, and she's relies on me a lot to help her as she gets older. It's a vicious cycle.

no one wants or needs me, but maybe that's a good thing, because it means i can ctb undisturbed.

"Need" and "want" are different.

My family doesn't need me. My parents would selfishly want to have me around to continue their planned life of normalcy as parents/as a family, and selfishly leave me behind while dying a natural death before me. It could have been anyone.

I don't want to be needed (or wanted in a way that it would make it near impossible to CTB).

 

[Angst Filled Fuck Up]

Yes, and I understand the sentiment. It's something I struggle with too. I always felt like I needed others to some degree but that they can take or leave me. That's certainly true when I'm in a bad way. I often think it would be nice to be depended on, at least emotionally. But as it stands, I think I've only ever been a drain on people.

 

[Insufficent]

Yes. Nobody needs me, not even the pets i do not have. I like to keep it that way.
I like animals tho...
