I have suffered from anxiety, ocd, and severe depression, throughout my life. As I got older, these diseases have only gotten stronger and more difficult to handle. I’m at a point where I’m contemplating suicide. It’s just too painful to live now. These diseases are just going to escalate further until there’s nothing left.

Mental illness sucks, and lord knows my list of disorders is pretty long...
I have BPD, OCD, PTSD, and Major Depression. It’s literally hell on earth so I understand why it sucks. But you truly have to keep pushing because it will get better. Trust me.

I have gone to therapy but it didn’t work. As the years went by, these illnesses got worse. Therap didn’t do a damn thing so I gave up going. The medications only made it worse. I have pretty much accepted that this is something that cannot be cured and I’m not going to get any better. But I still try my hardest every day to go to work and live my life. But it’s a grim life. It’s not a life I want to live, to be honest. No one should live like that. It’s horrible.

Please just know you are not alone in this. And from experience I know I was in dark times where I thought it would never change but it did. I still suffer but a lot less severe.
There are people who are blind, dont have limbs, experience chronic pain,... They all fight and try to live the best life possible. I know it's hard but not impossible.
Please hang on and dont do stupid things I beg you.
