Q: the Fight Is Ending

I know everyone is fighting this horrible disease and you are all such an inspiration but I am not like any of you. I cannot fight anymore, i'm too tired and very lonely. There is just so much sadness in the world and it doesn't seem to be getting any better. Over this past week I lost a very close and special friend and then another frind killed himself only hours after I was with him.
I cannot live in a world where people hurt so much and everyone dies. I refuse to be apart of the hatred and pain that people feel everyday.
I am not like any of you, I am not strong and I can't make it though this. Today we buried my friend and she was only 21, I have never experinced such sadness and numbness as this and its just too much, I don't want to do it anymore.
I mightn't die tomorrow but I won't be around for long, its just not what I want. This world is too mad for me, I don't understand why so many people hurt and so little people are truely happy, its not fair and its not right.
People make too many mistakes and as a result others die, like my friend and I cannot deal with it, not now, not anymore.

I felt suicidal too sometimes. Remember: your problems and troubles are temporary but death is permanent!
You're just going through a rough time. There was a time when I thought I would never cure myself but it happened :)
good luck to you

Come on now! You are stronger then that! You need to talk to a professional. You need some help and there is nothing wrong with that as we all need help sometime in our lives, just go to mental health and ask and I am not trying to say that you are crazy.
Good luck!
Keep us posted, please!
Sincerely,
sandy

Please Have a Hope
I have been in similar situation. My family was in war situation and I had no contact with any of them for 3 years. Only news I would get is when someone got injured and when someone died. But you have to have a hope. Hope for the better life. I remember when I was younger I did so many silly things and wanted to end my life- but I am soo grateful I am still here so I can tell people about my lovely once so they don't get forgotten. And that is your purpose in life: to protect yourself from the pain they have been through and to tell people and children about your friends inner beauty and kindness- who will otherwise.
Life is amazing.
Give it a chance to feel it. You have to be open for it.
You see how this is affected you- with you feeling bad it would affect even many more. Please be strong and give life a chance. You have to. Everyone deserves it.

Be Strong! :)
I don't know if this will help, but i'm going to post the lyrics of one of my favorite singers delta goodrems songs and maybe it will make sense to you, because we are all here for you, even if that doens't mean much now. I am no stronger than you, no one is, it just takes time I guess.

'be strong'

are you swimming upstream in oceans of blue?
Do you feel like your sinking?
Are you sick of the rain after all you've been through?
Well I know what you're thinking
when you can't take it
you can make it
sometime soon I know you'll see

'cause when your in you're darkest hour
and all of the light just fades away
when you're like a single flower whose colours have turned to shades of gray
well hang on and be strong

where taking each step one day at a time
you can't loose your spirit
let live and let live forget and forgive
it's all how you see it
and just remember keep it together
don't you know you're never alone

'cause when you're in your darkest hour
and all of the light just fades away
when you're like a single flower whose colours have turned to shades of gray
well hang on, and be strong

no you're not defeated
and soon you'll be smiling once again
then you won't have to feel it
let it go with the wind
time passes us by
and know that you're aloud to cry

'cause when you're in your darkest hour
and all of the light just fades away
when you're like a single flower whose colours have turned to shades of gray
well hang on and be strong
