Honestly, life is just getting way too monotonous and I’ve got zero motivation to actually get moving.

I’m basically living in total isolation here.

I find myself walking out onto the balcony—since I can still move around, at least—just threatening to jump.

I just need something, anything, to spark some kind of reaction, and I’m dying to know what that might be.

Look, I don't actually want to die; I’d just be faking it.
I just really need someone to look out for me, to show even a tiny bit of care
and for something, I don't know, to actually fucking happen...

Will I just get wiped out, or will I actually get a little attention
and maybe some various pills?

edit: I've got good health insurance.🙂

I honestly think if you actually got any attention from them, it wouldn't last. If they aren't the type of people who naturally give a damn about you, there's no reason to believe anything would suddenly change their ways. It might be a temporary thing, sure. And of course, you'd probably just end up popping a pill to deal with it.🤣

I honestly feel like if I kicked the bucket right now, nobody would even notice.

Like, not a single person from my "inner circle" would even show up.

He’d get some attention, even if it was just for a minute, and he’d get his meds. Honestly, if he got lucky enough to land a decent psychiatrist within two or three weeks, he’d probably just move past all those crazy attempts and never even think about doing them again.

But what happens when he stops seeing his therapist?🤷
He just ends up right back in the same environment where nobody gives a damn about him.

Not again, dear D.
Why on earth are you having these thoughts??

I don't even have Facebook anymore—deleted it— http://ssl.facebook.com/help/contact...delete_account
, and I tossed my SIM card in the trash too,

so I'm planning on spending my next chapter being totally social at some inpatient facility 🙂
because honestly, most of the time I'm just hanging out at home by myself... like, literally. Solo.

Well, at least things are good for you!😍
If only I had the house to myself!🙏.

You’re actually pretty entertaining. Why kill yourself over this when you clearly have such a subtle sense of humor? Just find yourself a crew and sip on something until the early hours of the morning... stay chill.

I don't touch the stuff because drinking just makes you put on weight,

plus, booze totally wrecks my mental health. It just triggers all these heavy, negative emotions,
so I really don't see it as a viable option.

Have you thought about seeking out something positive instead? Are your parents still around? You don't need to stage a crisis just to get a therapist's attention; you can always just make an appointment. If you really want things to change, you should try reaching out on your own terms to talk to someone and maybe get some Zoloft or Prozac...

Look, man, just smoke some weed and get lost in the trip. Who cares what happens? If you hit a massive high, awesome. If you don't? Even better. Either way, it’s a win-win in my book. 😁

I just want to get things moving, man, to finally get out there and be around people again, just to feel some kind of momentum and get a little attention,

Honestly, you’d probably end up in the ER—and we both know what that entails—but if that’s really what you feel you need right now, then go ahead... 😁

Being around people? Hmm... trust me, you don't want to be around *those* kinds of people. I'm not trying to be rude or anything, but I wouldn't exactly call hospital staff "social butterflies"...

Look, I've been hospitalized more times than I care to admit... 🙂

It's actually kind of wild being surrounded by millionaires, celebrities, all kinds of specialists, and on top of all that, dealing with some seriously salty staff.

Wouldn't it be way easier just to head out for the night😁?
There's plenty of that stuff out there too, without all the hassle
