what keeps you going for the time being?

I guess I want to see if I can get rid of my depression

Honestly I think that my cat is what keeps me going. Just looking at her little face I just can't feel anything but guilt if I ever leave her.

Remember one time when I SH too hard and I almost passed out and she came towards me licking my foreheard, almost like she knew I wasn't okay. I can't leave her.

As in 'why I'm still alive'— I have yet to find a way to actually kill me.
As in 'why I get up in the/some mornings'— if I don't everything only keeps getting worse at even faster rate until everything finally crumbles and I'll still be left in pain feeling all the same but with worse circumstances and still no way out…. Or a simpler explanation being 'to lessen my suffering'
That said I hate living like this and hope that I will someday, and someday SOON, will find a better more hopeful reason to "keep going".

It's kinda sad question for me right now.
I have my coping, in form of music and books and quasi-social information exchanges like this forum or Reddit.
But it's like doing make up on a dead body. Inside I'm burnt out. These are just reminders of a person I used to be.

I have cats, but my family will take care of them.

I like to read, I like to study, I'm very curious about the world after being agoraphobic for so long.

He keeps me going, his laugh, how innocently sweet he gets when I comfort him, the way his tone changes when I say a word he likes my pronunciation of, how he checks in on me everyday all the time, how patient he is, he makes me have the smallest of hopes that maybe, just maybe, I have a chance at this world for a little bit longer

I have no reason whatsoever. I am only still alive because I do the same thing as any ordinary insect. My consciousness serves only to make this absurd situation worse. I am an insect conscious of what I am, and that is absurd.

 

[FuneralCry]

I only exist as I was forced to in the first place and I exist in this horrific prison world where humans have made dying painlessly into a crime, all I want is the peace of non-existence and nothing no matter what would make me wish for this torturous, cruel existence that I just always saw as a mistake that just causes all this futile, dreadful suffering with no limit as to how much one can be tortured, it's just so terrible how this existence was imposed at all.

For me non-existence is just all that's positive in this existence of futile, torturous suffering and I always suffer so unbearably as a result of being trapped in this deeply undesirable existence, all I want is to erase this existence so it's like I never suffered at all, I'll always see existence as an abomination that just tortures existing beings, it's so horrible how a human can suffer for so long just to face the terrible extreme agony of old age.

You surely can. If you want to get rid of depression, consult a reputed psychiatrist, get the right treatment and you'll have to do some efforts on your part as well. You can be fine if you want
What keeps me going is, lack of full proof plan. I overdosed on clonazepam just last week and i was out for one whole day and i did couple of things that embarassed myself

hope at a better life, even if my mind has already decided to give up, i feel like my subconscious wants to succeed
