Existential Crisis: The Struggle of Simply Existing

Trigger Warning: Existential Crisis. Potentially Suicidal Ideations. Talk about death. Sometimes, simply existing is exhausting. It's just hard. Even if you have everything to look forward to. It's the days in-between, where you're struggling to keep your head above water that really just drain the life out of you. And you keep doing it, because you know, it's worth it, and that there are good things coming. And you don't want to not be here. But you also know that one day you won't be, and the inevitability of death is paralyzing. I'm in no danger of ending my life. I put the trigger warning in the beginning because I know that this likely mirrors the mental space of those who are. I'm actually terrified of the unknown, including death. I just wanted to share what I'm feeling and remember that I'm no alone, and hopefully remind others of that fact as well.
