Keep thinking "why me?"

- being an only child
- having a toxic family
- want to kill my useless dad
- all my relatives only care about themselves
- can't trust others
- all my friends have the habit of talking badly behind one's back
- being poor, owe millions of money from other people
- owe a lot of people, practically making me and my family "slaves" to them
- hate myself
- cannot simply move out, i'm stuck.
- hate this life
- was a christian until 2 years ago
- lost my girlfriend cuz i don't want her to get dragged into my personal problems
- thinks that all above are so normal, yet why do I have to be the one experiencing all of those, it's so unfair.. I was a good person until the world turns against me.

    I know this sounds harsh, but you need to stop feeling sorry for yourself. There are many people out there who have problems bigger than yours.

    That said, you have had a hard time and have experienced a lot of pain with your family. You've been through some hard times. Try to move out of the house and start again on your own if you can. If you can't, try to avoid your family and go out and meet people who are cool.

    I have similar problems to yours. I try to avoid my family. I enjoy going to work to get away from the house. I look forward to the day that I can finally move out of here.

  • If all thoses things happen to you, it is normal to ask yourself these questions. Just remember that you're not alone even though it might seem like it sometimes. Don't kill anyone. Everything is gonna get better someday and I really believe you're gonna find some people that you can trust and love. Please don't give up!

    YOU are the only person who can change your life. If you want to be happy, do something that will make you happy. If you want to do something helpful, go on and do that too.
    Your life is in your own hands. Go out and live the life you want to live; no one can stop you.
    It's YOUR life and it's in YOUR control.
    So put some positive thoughts in your head and steer clear of thinking thoughts such as "why me?".
    This is your life, so live it.

    chin up! try to be positive coz that's the only way you'll be able to make your situation better. think about it carefully. if you're pessimistic and depressed all the time you're not gonna be able to see the opportunities that your life gives you for you to move on coz you'll be so caught up in your self-pity.

    start going to places where you don't normally hang out and make new friends, start to trust them and i'm sure your outlook on life will pick up once you see everything's not as bad as it seems :)

    Stop thinking 'why me'. Think.. "Why THEM."
    You'll get out of it. :]

  • Yeah I agree with the ^^^ comment. Being bummed out about your family's circumstances/behaviour etc. is one thing. Owning it is another. You need to see yourself as occupying your own space in this world where you are entitled to make your own plans.

    Thats not being selfish. That's just not being so totally selfless that you are the family doormat forever tied to other people's bad choices because they happen to be family.

    Reach outside your family for some support - friends, counsellors, clergy whatever. There is a world there for you and it is yours to find a place for yourself of your own making in it.
