Rant Me+Disability=Failure
Me, Male 26, born with Autism. Never realized how much it would effect me and my job. Today got write-up from my boss because I managed to make one little mistake at work(Not explaining what it is), and now the work place is at the stage of revaluation in 2 weeks. With Autism, I tend to forget things, even the little things. And now I feel like a complete failure because with my past jobs and my current, especially with my family. I always make mistakes, I feel like a burden, I feel like "Why am I on this world making people frustrated?". At this point, idk what to do anymore. And with how my life is, I can't even think any jobs would take a man with a disability. Like some would say "Try YT, might make a living out of it". A big might that is, and YT requirements on making a living has gotten even more ridiculous at this point, not to mention I wanted to start YT when I was 17, till my parents scold me down saying "People can't make a living off YT, don't be like those people". I just wish I was never born, I wish I can be perfect at everything I do.....

I texted the 988 crisis hotline and it didn’t help.
I am in therapy and on meds. (I just had therapy last week, and have another appt next week. I do every other week.) I just don’t know what else to do. I do not have any family or friends to turn to…
I 32F am a stay at home mom. I have three children 15M, 13M, and 1F. I’m just severely struggling with my mental health.
I do not want to take my life nor harm myself. I just feel like it would be such a relief to no longer exist, I guess.
I would never leave this world and leave my children behind… I just want to be okay. I want to be better for them because they deserve a happy healthy mother.
I’ve struggled with my mental health since I was very young. I’ve been through every single kind of abuse consistently throughout my entire life.
I’ve recently stopped taking care of myself. I used to be big on hygiene but brushing my teeth and showering seem impossible and I will go 3/4 days without and I just do not have it in me to do so or even care anymore.
I’m just so tired of life beating me down and not getting any better. Going back to work is not an option right now, as we cannot afford childcare…
Any help, kindness, or encouragement of any sort would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

I should have never been born
I just want this life to stop. I don't enjoy anything anymore. I don't like myself. I'm not capable of functioning normally in this world. I'll never have a partner. Never have a real career. I've lost any real chance to upgrade my living situation. Nothing is worth it here. And I don't understand why people are okay with this existence. Most people are beyond fake. God, I just want to walk into traffic.

Somewhere Between Living and Leaving
I feel like I’ve reached a point in life where I don’t know what I’m living for anymore. I have no goal, no ambition, no direction, and sometimes not even the strength to imagine a future. I don’t have close friends, I’ve never experienced being truly loved or dated someone, and it feels like life has passed me by while I’m just standing still, watching everyone else move forward.
I feel so empty that even having feelings has started to feel exhausting. If someone asked me what I would want to be in my next life, I think I would say, “A stone.”
Not because a stone has a beautiful life, but because it doesn’t have to feel anything. It doesn’t have to feel lonely, unwanted, behind, confused, or afraid. It just exists—quietly, without expectations, without heartbreak, without having to wonder what it is supposed to become.
Right now, I don’t want a perfect life. I just want this unbearable emptiness inside me to stop.

Balding ( 18M ) is ruining my life
Hey everyone just wanted to post this on here in case I ever end up actually doing it,
I’m a 18 year old male who started seeing the very early signs of hair loss at 17 and I’ve been obsessed with it since then I’m currently sitting at almost Norwood 2 no scalp thining only frontal area affected…
My family history is Moms side has no hair loss grandpa Norwood 2 at 64 and his brother 54 Norwood 1, on my dads side tho I’m cooked my dad went bald in his 20s just like his brother…
My current routine is like this
-finasteride 1mg daily
-minoxidil 5% every night
-shampoo 3x times a week that contains amenexil and vitamin E
-scalp massager
I’ve been doing this routine for 4 months and the hair is actually better I think I’m starting to go back towards a Norwood 1.5 and got like 20% density back but I’m still really worried about the future I’ve decided that if I can’t beat this curse I’ll end up taking my own life I’m very anxious and always have been and now because of this it’s even worse and also massive depression I can’t find any happiness in life dating completely ruined can’t even enjoy my favorite sports because of the bald head curse I’ve started watching haircafe as a motivation he’s goated but I just have a feeling that I’ll go bald anyway…. So if anyone has any suggestions for my future pls leave them down below….

Suicide Watch Im done
I can't live with myself
I'm dumb, fat, pliant, a big fucking baby and I get shit for it
I thought I could be a man but I just dont have it in me to keep trying.
I'm seen as a predator cause I kept eyeing my 19yo coworker and whats worse is that I actually listened to her over a 60yo man that I was supposed to listen too
Wtf is wrong with me!
I dont want to be here anymore
I understand what I am
A 30yo man baby and Im never going to get passed this
I will never be the man I dreamed of being, do the things I dreamed of doing and I think I finally accepted being a failure but I dont want to go through that mountain to be better.

Desire for suicide
I honestly am tired and have treatment resistant depression and have been depressed but part of me honestly wants to prove that me constantly talking about how close I am to suicide isn’t me just talking about it or some kind of attention seeking. I’m not even sure if that how people view it. But I don’t believe people actually believe me when I talk about how close I am. I have a plan for when I’m able to buy a gun, and I have fought my depression for more than 10 years.
