Have you ever felt hopeless? Have you ever felt helpless? Have you ever felt a pain that goes beyond physical pain, a pain that hurts your soul and weighs more than the world? Have you ever felt like giving up? Have you ever felt like life is meaningless? Have you ever felt like no matter how hard you try, apathy and selfishness is winning over the world (and yourself)?
I don't know about you, but my answer to all the questions posted above is abig fat YES. I've felt hopeless, I've felt helpless, I've been in so much pain that I've felt as if my soul actually hurt. I've felt like giving up many times now. I've felt like living is sometimes meaningless and that no matter how hard I try, I can't find any real meaning to my existence in this world.
I'm broken and we live in a broken world. I'm desperate for a change. I want to change the world and I want the world to change me. I'd like to believe there is a meaning to all of this after all. I'd like to believe we are more than material beings. I'd like to believe we will, one day, reach the stars.
If you have asked yourself these questions, or if you have felt how I have felt, then there is an amazing website you should check out. It's called To Write Love On Her Arms (TWLOHA)
TWLOHA is a non-profit organization that helps people deal with depression and cutting. But more than that, TWLOHA is an organization formed by broken people like us. TWLOHA is a group of people who have shown me that Rescue is Possible.
If you feel like checking out what TWLOHA is all about, here's a link to their website http://www.twloha.com/home.php
I'm sorry that you feel like that and I hope that this organization can help you. Hopefully their are others that it can also help. Their have been times in my life where I have thought why go on. My biggest thing is money I get depressed over money and not having it. I think I'll just become a drunk and then I won't have to think about it, cuz that's what my first husband did in my eyes. (not anymore) but then I get better, pay some bills and realize I have more to live for and drinking myself into nothing will solve no problems.
