Sorry to those who may still care
a month ago
I don't really know how many from my past remember me or even spare a nano second of thought on my existence anymore at this point, but I figured I might as well say sorry for being as quiet and distanced as I have been these last several years
I know it's mostly my fault, I think I've grown alienated from the whole concept of friendship at this point since it mostly led to nothing but pain and misery for me.
I tried to juggle many things in life and tried to maintain some level of connection with the ones I cared for the most....the more I tried the more I failed and felt pain
After attempting to end things a few times I basically gave up being social, honestly I don't know how I'm still here alive right now
To be blunt it's more than likely I will be gone from this world pretty soon, my future is pretty
bleak and I just don't have the mental strength to go through it
So I made this journal to basically say sorry to the ones that may have actually cared for me
in some way in the past and attempted some kind of friendship, I turned out to be a massive disappointment and a waste of your time socially
....anyway...not sure why I wanted to get that off my chest, I will stop now

Its weirdly easy to fall into that feeling of failure and let it pile up until you don't feel much of anything anymore. The irony is though, the fact that it bothers you is one of the reasons the world needs you though. Theirs so many people that don't care. And its unfair that your own burdens feel twice as bad because of all that. And you feel you have to apologize and that you should just retreat and be quiet. But that's not true either. And I can prove it to you:
You don't know me. I'm some random nobody that's not really talked to you before. I'm not some friend or anyone that your even thinking about when you wrote this. And yet I read this journal, felt compelled to respond. Why? Because I follow you. Why? Because what you have and how you are inspired me to do so. Just you being you is enough. Your worthy of love and joy and you have value and worth, even if I can't explain in detail why. After all, I'm not good at any of this. But I can guarantee you, as bleak as your work is, its a bleaker world with out you.
And I'm not telling you you have to try harder. You do enough. You've done enough too. I understand not wanting to roll the boulder anymore but its also okay to take a break from all that, all this, and focus on yourself. And I know thats not a magic bullet or some great advice that I can help you put into practice, but its the best this random stranger has. I hope it helps on some level and even if you get nothing else out of this I hope you get this; you've made random strangers lives better too.
If it gets too hard, please consider the 988 Lifeline. Call or text 988, or visit their site. https://988lifeline.org/ There's also 211 Helpline that might be able to help you find help resources (not just medical). Though they're not trained in crisis management, they do try to help.
You matter, Drakion. Please remember that! Also, I agree with PHenic above, who put it better than I ever could.
You can note me if it helps you, though I'm not on here all the time. I try to reply when possible.
Don't give up, and don't be afraid to reach out to others.
