you don't want to die, you want to live

this is a thought I had when I was younger

you know – that feeling you have when you look at what you have around you, and you are literally unsatisfied with everything

you overthink and you think that maybe life will be better if you are not around anymore

but overthink more, and you start to find the root of it

the reason of your unhappiness is because life isn't the way you want it to be

you are unhappy at how life currently is, not at life in general

if you change your life for the better, you will most likely feel better about it too

then it becomes clear

you don't want to die, you want to live

you don't want your life to be over. you just want the shitty parts to be gone

and that's what you should do

remove the parts you don't want, slowly

make more for new happenings to enter. and if you don't like them, remove the new ones too

until you are left with a life you somewhat like, eventually

and then go from there

    Dear Ron,

    Thank you for writing and sharing this with me and with everyone who needs to hear this. I’m currently in the hospital for 2 weeks because of a depression and suicidal thoughts. I’m getting therapy almost everyday and I’m starting to feel better. Beautiful little things like this cheer me up a lot so thank you thank you thank you!!
    Much love
    Cat

    Hey Ron,
    The minute you sent this blog I clicked instantly because I’ve felt like this for too many months now. Any email you send even if it’s sad or happy or even a word, you don’t realise how reassuring it is that someone somewhere still cares enough even just to write an email. Thank you.

    You have a way of putting what’s in my brain into words at the exact moment I need to read them. Thanks for that…
