I can tell you guys who Tim is, if that's okay with you (and Star, of course).


I thought it might be you. She said he was in NZ and you are to. :)

Yeah, it's me. I never usually hang around in The Haven, as it isn't my 'theme', and I don't like feeling down and sorry, which is how I feel when viewing some of the stuff here. Truth be told, this is only my second post here.

Me and Star did have a difficult talk together two nights ago, and I know she wouldn't want me to go into the details... but long story short, I managed to make her re-consider, and it's quite an accomplishment considering I'm only 16 years old and this is the first time I've handled such a subject.

I'm sorry, but I feel like sharing my misery, and I hope some people can help me feel a little better. I hate myself so much because I'm worth nothing, and I want to kill myself, but I know I'd probably go to Hell if it exists. I hate how I latch on to anyone who shows me the least bit of attention because I'm so lonely. I'm sorry if I offend anyone, I just needed to get that out.


I've felt much the same way for a long time, but I wouldn't hurt myself. I've felt like doing that, of course, but I can't. People talk about suicide being the coward's way out, but that's BS. It's not something to encourage of course, but the feelings that lead to it are not something to demean by putting it that way. But remember it's an irreversible decision. Your situation here on earth, generally, isn't.

I just lost the only friend I'd ever had--she informed me in an e-mail that "it just wasn't working", so I'm back to where I started--where I've been for the better part of 24 years. Oddly enough, I don't feel completely hopeless. I lost my friendship because of the same behavior defect you mention--I'd latched on to her because I'd never had a real friend before in my life.

But I'm going to talk to my psychiatrist tomorrow about the whole thing; I'd recommend you see about talking to one yourself if you aren't already. It's not easy to find one who actually gives a damn, but if you do find a good one, it will help.

Just as a note Joseph, Star's only 15, has a similar thing to a psychiatrist going (it's probably me), and has cheered up to her normal bright self.

I think most of us would know the "latching on" problem all too well..

The best way (sorry if this is obvious) to cure this problem, is to fulfill your drive, do something you really want to do, excel at it, make something with it etc.
