Have you ever felt like walking away from everything in your life?

sweetie, life will indeed have these types of time periods. The very very MOST important thing you can possibly do right now is try and believe with all your heart that this tough time will pass and that it will get better. It may even take a little bit of time but chances are your life can end up being even better than it was before this hard time started. In the meantime, write out your feelings in a journal and/or talk with a close friend or relative you trust not to judge you. The choice is ultimatly up to you. You can either try your hardest to believe that life will turn around for the better and aim for that goal of better times or give into all the negative energy around you. Please don't give in to it and give up. It will pass.......just believe in the better things and in yourself.

To be honest, I'm not sure... Hence I am leaving my entire life behind and going traveling...

Sometimes. I feel overwhelmed by little things sometimes because the big things seem to drain me. Sometimes reaching out to help that certain person is just too much.

Yes. And no i couldn't function...until i let her go and focused on the things in my life that i had some control over.  Look up the serenity prayer, it is short and sweet but says a lot.

Look outside of the town if you do not want to be locked into that life. I can relate to this. I got out.

Yeah, i've often thought that.  I've even made an attempt.  \n\nAt that time my parents had declared to me that I was more trouble than I was worth and that they hated me.  The rest of my family lived over 500 miles away, and whenever they saw me would talk about what a bad child I was.  I hated school; the lessons were overwhelming and there was too much pressure to succeeed.  I loved my friends and they always made me feel good about myself, but lack of money (and, I suppose, effort) meant that only saw them when I was in school, and frequently would not see them for weeks and weeks over the holidays.  My lifelong best friend attacked me and told me I was worthless because I couldn't bring the man he loved into his life (he later admitted that this was entirely not my fault) and I was dealing with the guilt of my biological father leaving my mother over my birth, being attacked by my mothers boyfriend and having been sexually assaulted when I was in primary school all by myself.  I was overweight, unnattractive and no-one wanted me.  I felt hopeless and I wanted to die because I considered nothing could be worse than the way I was feeling right then.  \n\nNow, i'm happier.  I've realised that my friends love me even if we dont get to see one-another too often.  I'm in college and they do not put me under pressure to achieve anything more than I can; they just encourage me to do my best.  My personality is no longer stiffled by the rules and regulations of dress, speech and behaviour that my highshool imposed on me.  My best friend has realised the mistakes in his behavious, has appologised and we are starting to move forward, hand in hand in forgiveness.  My parents still dont really like me, but we try to get along for the sake of my sisters and try to maintain some kind of family values.  I started to talk about how I was feeling and dealing with guilt from previous experiences that I was too afraid to speak about; my friends listened and I began to express my emotions through music, poetry, writing and art.  I realised that I am a creation of God and that I deserve to live just as much as anyone else.  I stopped harming myself physically and I stopped bullying myself emotionally; I learned to have the confidence to stand up to my own personal demons.

Yes, because while I'm thinking about it, it seems to be the easy way to get away from the problems and dramas that I have to deal with. Most of the time I then look at the wonderful things that I have around me and realize that leaving is only going to create new problems not solve the ones I'm trying to run away from.

yes!\n\nfirstly, you must ask yourself if there's been a change in your life.. it maybe a very subtle and a very gradual shift.\nI've experienced that when my boyfriend became stress-laden due to school.. it affected him... but gradually it made me depressed too... and i felt like there's something lacking...\n\n\nor,\n\nhave you ALWAYS had this feeling since young...\n\n\n\nthe only way to fix it is to sit down and really be honest with yourself...\n\nis there anything you don't like in your life?\nhow long has it been since your started feeling that?\nhow do you feel about it?\nhow do you react to it?\nif you ignore it, what are the consequences?\n\n\nall the best!

Well I just kept boosting myself up.  I use to feel the same way.  Then I learned you only have one life and if you spend the whole time being sorry for yourself you miss out on tons of awesome experiences.

ive felt like this soo many times in life....for a long time i wallowed in it, wondering what to do. then i started finding things to occupy my mind, like i started exercising by myself, or you know reading and stuff. life sometimes is funny, like you go through things that are sooo miserable, but then later in life, its like wow, that really made me appreciate any piece of happiness i get....i am a better person, and more compassionate i think because i went through some rough times when i was younger.
