I wake up most days and wish I never did. And on other days I'm grateful to be alive. I hate this constant feeling of not being good enough and harsh sadness it comes with it. I want to live but I keep struggling to give myself reasons why as to I should be here on this planet. And I don't just mean the bonds I have with people. I mean, my own purpose. Why do I matter? When I feel like I don't matter at all.

(TW) I've had depression in ranging severities for most of my life. At one a few different points I didn't want to live anymore. It got pretty dark, but I still found myself researching depression and looking up youtube videos about why I should live, and I guess I realized that by doing that I still had a will to live, I was looking for hope, and that was enough for me to know what I truly wanted. You know yourself better than anyone else does, you know your hobbies and your passions, existing just to enjoy them or see them through is enough of a reason to live. You don't even have to be the best at what you do, you could enjoy it just for yourself and no one else. It can be difficult and overwhelming to think of a purpose in the grand scheme of things. If possible, just take things day by day š§” And it's okay not to feel okay, no one with depression will feel better overnight
We all have a purpose here on earth. That's why God put us here. Some of us loose sight of our path but it's important to love yourself, forgive yourself and be patient with yourself. I wonder that too often and I just ask God to guide me to what my purpose is. You will find your way through the darkness into light! ā¤ļø

You have a purpose. Maybe it is hard to see it now, but there is a reason you are here and you matter. Maybe try to find a mindfulness distraction and get some therapy?

We are all ment to be happy. Just that something cruel won't except it. My theory is that I was blamed for something that I didn't do or had no control of.
