Feeling Hopeless and Alone

Anyone else just feel like there is no other answer than to die? I have nothing but unsolvable problems, I’m not under the delusion that things are going to change. I’ll never be able to live anywhere other than where I do now, no one’s going to take on some idiot with herpes and ruin their life for me, I’ll never have anything or anyone and I don’t see how it’s possible to have a life that I consider livable.

      How Many People Have Herpes Worldwide? Globally, (67% of the population) or 3.7 billion people under age 50, have HSV-1. HSV-2 affects 13% of the same population, or 491 million people. That's almost 70% and counting. Your not alone!

      In 2016 13.2 percent of people 15-49 live with HSV2 and many more have contracted it since then. Don’t think of yourself as a leper you’re just another human with your own baggage. I personally am in a relationship where I have to make a sacrifice and i’ll be damned if that’s gonna stop me from loving my partner. There is someone out there ❤️

        @emstability666 thanks for being so kind but as you don’t have it, you likely don’t fully understand what it’s like. I would have had no idea before contracting. I live in a small town in the south, people are very judgmental here and I hear herpes jokes weekly even though no one other than my family knows I have it. I wouldn’t want to date anyone in this town anyway, but I don’t even have the option because I can’t date someone, risk telling them and then having everyone know. I appreciate your compassion very much though, thank you for reaching out x

      I feel that way i feel like a burden i feel like im a problem i feel like im always gonna have to relie on someone for help i feel depressedand want to die as well because if im dead no one wont have to worry about me. I feel like my schizophrenia will never leave til i go to heaven and cimmting suicide is a forgivable sin. The only unforgiveable sin is blastme of the holy spirit so i could die and still have a change to go to heaven.
