I know I'm a fucking burden. I'm a worthless useless piece of shit human.

 

[jbear824]

I'm not capable of working, I can't ensure my survival by working. That by default makes me a major burden to everyone else.

 

[GreenTree]

I know I'm a burden and it's the worst feeling ever.

 

[PinkyStat]

Yes, I was told by my own father, compared to my brother I am definitely a human failure

 

[FormerlyFe(IV)]

No, I don't allow myself to be a burden. If I have my problems I deal with them myself. Mostly through isolation.

 

[AerialBoundaries]

It's not a case of I feel, it's a case of I know.

 

[draekmir]

Personally I don't feel like I am. I'm disabled but waiting to be approved for disability so I'm currently jobless and homeless, I don't have any friends or contact with my family. Nobody really cares about me or knows I exist other than the few strangers that see me at a store getting the basics to live. If I were to ctb right now nobody would probably even know for months who I even was

 

[icantdothisanymore7]

Absolutely. I can't drive because my anxiety is so bad. I'm too stupid to get a decent paying job. I'll never make enough money to live on my own. I'm living at the expense of other people, and I feel immense guilt because of it.

 

[snowcloud9]

I'm more angry at other people than angry at myself. People promise that they'll be there for me, but the second that I need help I have nobody to help me, or nobody to help me without me paying a high monetary price. I am always there for people that need/want it, so I am resentful that people aren't in return--except for my other depressed friends, which are wonderful people who will stick with me no matter what. I don't think I'm the problem, really.

 

[annique]

definitely, since i'm unable to properly function in this society (find a job, finish uni etc), so i rely on others and all i can think of is dying

 

[Forever Sleep]

No. I do work and support myself and I'm fairly independent in life. I don't exactly feel proud of it all though because I had a helping hand in terms of inheritance money to begin with. Plus, I'm frequently being told how well other people are doing.

I worry about becoming a burden though. I'm struggling financially in the job I want to do which will likely lead to me doing another job I hate to support a life I don't even want to live. I really resent that. I resent being born into a system to begin with where you either work or are made to feel guilty for not working. I wish people would think it through before enslaving their children into this system.

 

[TheMetalhead]

Yeah, I'm always being told how useless I am. Dropped outta uni, now unemployed too. I don't even leave the house unless it is to smoke a full pack of ciggies in about an hour or so. It kinda helps with numbing. I still have some money left, but I was told that I'll be kicked out of the house by the end of September. It's terrifying.

 

[Amelie]

Yes. I always wish my husband would have the life he deserves with a nice normal woman who doesn't bring so much shit to his door. I feel so sorry for him. I do frequently think I'm a burden to my children as well (with the exception of the youngest). My parents' rhetoric of me being 'bad' from day one has infected the rest of my family with the view that there's someone wrong with me. I can't do anything without being judged. I'd love to relieve them of the task of looking down on me 24/7.

 

[Costrecce]

Of course, because I am. I have doctors and professional support people, and I´m wasting their time, money and energy, because they try to help but I can't get better. Also, I used to work for years (even when I had a lot of missing days, because mental breakdowns) and then tried to go back to school to get a professional degree. Dropped out, not because the school was bad (it was actually pretty good and had really nice people), but because I can't do this anymore. I can´t deal with myself, other people and this world. Why even try participating anymore, I have pretended to be someone else for forever
