Feels like I've failed at life [CW: self-harm, suicidal thoughts] (hexbear.net)

I went from being a happy kid that smiled all the time, enjoyed drawing and had several friends to a pathetic adult with no talents, passion, creativity, friends or a job. Just a worthless and unlovable failure. And recently it's gotten so bad that I've started cutting myself and contemplating suicide. I just don't believe I have what it takes to get my life together, sadly.

Thank you for sharing your story, it gives me some hope. I want to reach out for help. I don't think I can wait much longer, so tomorrow I'll make a phone call, see where that leads me. I think therapy and/or medication is what I need to pull myself out of this pit.
