I think this is one of my biggest reasons to want to die, I think. People in my life, both good and bad, get away with hurting me verbally or physically, or outright just abandoning me because I'm "too sick" mentally. I know I am. I have so many diagnosed mental illnesses that feed off of each other in a perpetual cycle that even psychs and therapists aren't sure what to do. They can only treat one or two, but it isn't enough to stop the cycle. At first I thought to myself, I just can't see it since I'm a bad person, I'm playing the victim when I don't deserve to, I'm in the wrong here, but as things kept happening, people kept leaving, people kept hurting me, using excuses like "I didn't mean to" or "he started it!" or just outright no excuses at all and hurting me because they can, feeling justified in doing so because they felt slighted by me in some way, I realized that I wasn't necessarily "wrong" for feeling hurt, but people feel like it's okay to hurt me because I'm sick.

Even now I still feel like I'm "playing the victim" by being sad and hurt by what people have done to me. I still think it's my fault. People tell me it isn't my fault, but if it wasn't, things wouldn't be this way. I'm sure if I was "healthier" I'd blame myself too. Whenever I try to talk about things like this it ends up being "too difficult" or I'm the one that's being "difficult". I'm not yelling or screaming or even crying. I just want to talk. Is that so much to ask for?

I do a really good job at masking and acting "normal" and "healthy", so when I tell people closest to me about my plan to commit suicide, I think it hits them really hard. They ask me why, how I seemed so happy, how good my life is. When I get told that it hurts even more, it just goes to show how good I masked, at least. I don't know anymore. My life was good, in theory, all the things that happened to me barring some harassment, bullying, and assault, were good. I feel ungrateful. I don't deserve to feel this way. But I'm sick.

I think it's really rude that your friends talk about how good your life is. like how the hell would they know anything more than you do??
also, shouldnt they know that actually depressed people can never show their true feelings?

I know they aren't trying to be rude, and they mean well. I'm probably their first friend with mental illness. It's just ignorance I suppose.

On a completely unrelated note, I see that your signature says you're from Japan and looking for other people from Japan, I didn't think I'd ever find anyone from here on this website! I currently live in Tokyo now. I think you know how bad the mental healthcare system is here...

It's good to know that your friends are not trying to be rude, and its interesting that you also live in Tokyo! The mental healthcare system is horrible indeed, and suicide is really normalized here anyway... having to use the shonan shinjuku line to go to school everyday is hell because at least once a month it ceases operation due to a 人身事故。。。

I've actually never taken the shonan shinjuku line, haha! For me I take the JR lines a lot and the amount of times the Chuo line gets shut down from people jumping onto the tracks is insane...

Please don't live the label of the psychiatric community. They need those to make money. You are a human being with problems, not an ATM for doctors. Be you (man/woman, parent/child, someone with however many interests that makes you unique). I'd suggest smiling more if you can. I frown a lot and for years wondered why I wasn't a pleasure to be around until someone sarcastically called me smiley. Smiles invite them back :smiling:
