I’m feeling for you friend. This won’t do you in.

I feel it already has. Just contemplating what to do about it

Well I suppose the thing to do would be to post on Reddit about it. Just to get other peoples perspective, remind yourself that you’re not alone, give goals a distraction. At least that’s what I’d be doing and what it seems like you’re doing now. It’s the healthy natural thing to do.

It’s probably self-preservation speaking at this point. I have no will of my own to continue

Gotcha. Well you have no active will right now. There sheer act of self preservation and of acknowledging it is in itself at least a passive will to go forward. So you have will and have no will.

I think both are true. Something in your mind is dragging you forward while the rest of you collapses. I think that’s okay and part of the process.

If you’re giving up and have nothing left to lose, then why not just take the rest of your day and have a cry and a nap? You’re emotionally exhausted, not defeated.

No, I’m defeated. My life has been one massive case of try and fail, push and pull, expectations and disappointment. I’ve never meant anything to anyone, and I’m beginning to no longer mean anything to me. I can’t do anything right. Nothing. Nada.
