I'm sorry to hear you have cancer. You deserve to live. I wish I could take your cancer in your place because I have nothing to live for. If you have grandchildren and everything, then you should be healthy not me. All I do is consume scarce resources and convert them into waste products. There is no reason for me to be here.
I appreciate the sentiment but I'm at the end of my usefulness. I'm more a burden on the world than anything else. It's the truth. Basically, I'm just waiting for death and that's about the only thing I have to look forward to. No kids, no family other than my parents who are in their 80s. Only child.
I have no husband or children, my parents are deceased. Your blessed to have your parents. Don't believe what your mind is telling you, you are not a burden.
Yes. I am very blessed to have my parents. But once they are gone I won't even have them, nor probably a home for that matter. I'm sorry to hear you are in a similar situation. I hope you find meaning in life where I have not.
I do not know, as yet, what is the matter. Cancer is obviously a possibility.
It doesn't matter and few will understand anyway.
Hello Gary, Happy Easter. I thought the same as you, I was terrified of what would happen to me when my parents died. I was never on the street, hungry or forsaken. I lived with my sister then finally got an apartment with help from a social worker. Things have a way of working out, I hope your having a better day today.
No one can just "fix" depression. No one can "fix" 53 years of loneliness and isolation. I came here to share feelings that I assumed others could relate to. No one can "fix" my problems, not even me. I'm tired of "fixers". They annoy the shit out of me. If you don't feel the way I do about life or know what I'm talking about, then that's fine. But I'm not going to vomit out my whole life story. I don't think it helps in any way and I really don't feel like doing it at this point.
