I feel like my life has no meaningDoubtful
After the trauma from last yearI feel like my life has no meaning
I'm sorry that you feel that way. A lot of us know that feeling. If you want to talk about that, there's plenty of room to start a thread. Perhaps you could do that and maybe we can get to know why you have come to feel that way. People are always here to lend a sympathetic ear.I feel like my life has no meaning
Does the trauma from last year involve this site?I feel like my life has no meaning
After the trauma from last year
I think that's an astute question to ask. So I will ask too. Does it involve this site?Does the trauma from last year involve this site?

good point, I'm just going through a lot for this past year and I don't know how to handle it. You seem like you have a good and sensitive heart , thank you for being so kind.I'm sorry that you feel that way. A lot of us know that feeling.

The problem is, from what I've seen of your posts, you seem to be adopting a judgemental stance. Maybe you haven't been around these parts long enough. Consider whether your interactions with people have been considerate. Invalidating comments can do more harm than good. Even if you have good intentions.
Bear in mind what has been written about this site in the NYT. People are going to question your motives if you display this kind of behaviour.
Thank you :-) I certainly try. Do you want to talk about this trauma you have mentioned? Maybe we can talk in another thread to avoid this getting off topic?I

Perhaps.. but not at this moment.Thank you :-) I certainly try. Do you want to talk about this trauma you have mentioned? Maybe we can talk in another thread to avoid this getting off topic?
Or DM if you prefer?
No worries , whatever and whenever feels right :-)Perhaps.. but not at this moment.
Before I shared my inner thoughts and my traumatized experience do you mind if I ask how old you are? I just want to get comfortable before I start .Perhaps.. but not at this moment.
Why do you keep asking people how old they are? Why does it matter?Before I shared my inner thoughts and my traumatized experience do you mind if I ask how old you are? I just want to get comfortable before I start .
You can rest assured that I'm an adult. I'm probably one of the older people that have found their way here. I haven't concealed my age really on here, I'm a bit puzzled as to why my age is important though? But if you want to talk the offer is open.Before I shared my inner thoughts and my traumatized experience do you mind if I ask how old you are? I just want to get comfortable before I start .
I have trauma too. Therapise me all you like.Thank you :-) I certainly try. Do you want to talk about this trauma you have mentioned? Maybe we can talk in another thread to avoid this getting off topic?

Therapy sounds interactive, I can listen or read but I don't have the solution, just my opinionI have trauma too. Therapise me all you like.
Thank you for your assurance. I'm in so much stress right now so I apologize if I offend you in anywayYou can rest assured that I'm an adult.

Haven't really opened my mouth all day lol. How you doing?My hair is starting to grey here and there, specifics are not my thing

I'm not offended at all. I'm sorry you are experiencing so much stress :-( But I honestly don't mind chatting with you if you want. Maybe it would do some good to talk?Thank you for your assurance. I'm in so much stress right now so I apologize if I offend you in anyway
What? Lol!I have trauma too. Therapise me all you like.
Well a bit flat but that's better than dipping below the line.Haven't really opened my mouth all day lol. How you doing?
What? Lol!
Just generally find trauma a tough topic but necessary. I'm reading a great book about trauma and it's nice For me to come back here now. When I was on here before I was in full on fight/flight/freeze mode. If anyones interested the book is CPTSD From Surviving to Thriving - Pete Walker.What? Lol!
Well a bit flat but that's better than dipping below the line.
Getting help where I can, how about you?
To be honest I expect nothing but appreciate the intention of those trying to help me. My emotions are numb but I owe to myself to try and at least give it a go.Just generally find trauma a tough topic but necessary.

Here's a quote 'Moreover, working with simplistic approaches can leave you stranded in toxic shame when you do not achieve the touted results. I was motivated to write this book in large part because of the many times I sank into new levels of self-contempt when the latest panacea therapy did not cure me. I will use the word "key" repeatedly to describe the various tasks upon which recovering hinges. This book offers a keychain of perspectives and techniques to unlock yourself from being what Alice Miller called a "Prisoner of Childhood."
Sounds like you're taking a step forward. I took a step back by resorting to my various coping methods and I have unsatiated hunger now I'm in emotional flashback. But i was flicking through reddit and saw the article about the Sarco pod. Even if it's expensive it cheered me up that the dialogue about assisted suicide is in the media.
Sounds awesome! Who is it by? What's the song? I was thinking of "Levitate Me" by the pixies when I saw that post for some reason!Therapize me... LoL
I'm listening to a song containing these lines rn:
I'm in your possession
So fuck me, kitten

I prefer the Cocteau TwinsTherapize me... LoL

Elevator lady elevator lady elevator lady elevator lady Levetate me!! If all and all is true if all in all is true....
From what you said I would say this your strength - connecting pieces of information in topics that people would not always notice are connected - e.g. connecting spacedust with Hungarian metalTo be honest I expect nothing but appreciate the intention of those trying to help me. My emotions are numb but I owe to myself to try and at least give it a go.
Assited suicide transcends so many intersections of public perception, religion and morality that I can't see it being mainstream but I have my own path should I wish to take it, that is reassuring to me, but like I said it's at the end of a long list of other things to try first.
Damn!! It's fricken REM isn't it?! Lol!I prefer the Cocteau Twins
Cant make out what she's saying but somehow my mood makes the meaning, reading that back to myself makes no sense but I hope if you have heard them you get what I mean
It just literally occurred to me that's what it was! Lol! I haven't listened to Automatic For the People in a good while. Man on the Moon though, count the number of "Yeahs" in there then listen to Lithium by Nirvana and count them and see who won Stipe or Cobain! :-)"Star Me Kitten" by R.E.M.
They made them change the title![]()
Perhaps, I'm natural self depreciating and have no self worth but I love everyone else (within reason). Lots care about me and love me but I don't and that is the problemFrom what you said I would say this your strength - connecting pieces of information in topics that people would not always notice are connected - e.g. connecting spacedust with Hungarian metal
