How do you cope keep living?

[bigj75]

Reality is so boring. I have been addicted to video games most of my life but they no longer do anything for me. Reality is shit because I feel like I cannot be myself anywhere. It feels like I wear a mask every day which is very draining. None of us have any real power or control. Just illusion of control. So when you realize that life becomes even worse lol.

true.

There is no free will. Atleast not in the grand scheme of it all.

Video games and working out but i don't cope. Last week i played spyro reignited so i'm a 29 year old man collecting gems with a purple dragon in my spare time lol how pathetic is that.

Im 29 y/o too , but don't have any hobby and don't go out .
If collecting gems make you sane and some what happy , don't let other people stop you.
and playing videos games as well ,theres nothing pathetic about that.

It's hard. When I'm depressed it's ok, I'm used to that. The hard parts are all those times when I feel like I'm losing my mind. When my grip starts slipping. You can't get used to the feeling of going crazy.

And when you've had the experience of going completely insane in the past, it's terrifying not knowing if you're about to snap or not. And if you do snap, not knowing if you'll come back from it or not. Maybe just end up a drooling lunatic sedated in some psych hospital until you grow old and die.

There is no way of getting used to that.

Clutch on hopes. Stetting deadlines. Self harm. If necessary go to the psych ward to calm down. Laughing (dark humour ^^) . Being with my best friend and partner. Masturbating. Listening to music.
But it doesn't help. I've no power to live anymore... So I think I'll catch the bus sooner or later... I feel like there's no future for me. I don't feel as if it is my decision, it's more like a force to die...
I have one last hope. If it doesn't help I feel free to go.

I listen to documentaries on dark subjects like prison, homelessness, and drug addiction. These things cheer me up because I can relate.

I also vape and drink endless cups of tea and coffee. I overeat. I text my online bf. And browse SS.
