Ever since I was five I had thoughts of dying.
I thought everyone hated me and if I died everyone would be happy.
It got worse.
Before the titanic movie I got obsessed with titanic and I read everybody I could find from several libraries, went to see the exhibits in Boston.
The idea of so many people dying in such a tragedy was so hauntingly intriguing. I still don't really get the feeling I had.
I started having paralyzing thoughts of death, like around eight or ten, I went to camp and I got stuck, on the bus, and so many people had to come and coax me out, but I didn't budge even after like the entire camp showed up, I told myself then I'd write something or whatever to live forever.
An absolutely.childish lie I needed.
I struggled with these intense fears forever.
I had religious periods where I would search things online, talk to jehovahs witness.
I could be around people but I had this black hole, actually feeling of like a sinking emptiness bathing me in complete fear.
I started having constant suicidal thoughts around the time I started devoting myself to the routine of work, losing friends.
I really don't think those two things are the big factors though.
It's more the way I am.
I was recently diagnosed with borderline personality disorder, and my empathy levels, my sensitivity, have always been extremely unbelievable unbearable.
I can't help but get stuck on the negative, I can't help to think about dying all the time, 24/7, to stop the pain.
Then I realize my mother, my brother, my father would be hurt.
Even though I don't enjoy life in the slightest, I realize it's completely wrong to make them suffer for all they've given me.
I've tried for years to explain to them how painful life is for me, so they could tell me to die or at least accept it.
They never seem to get it.
So, I have to keep going.
How do I deal with death?
I embrace it.
This is from someone who simply works and doesn't make much, never had a relationship, someone who can't have more than one or two favorite person friends at a time.
Someone who can't network, who is hated by most people as I don't talk much as I'm always so tired of existing.
Most people find something to believe in.
I can't seem to.
