I don't remember what it feels like not to think that I'm destined to ctb after prolonged suffering. Happy endings are not for everyone.

i hope this doesn't come out wrong but from the way you speak about "art being the only thing you know how to do" atleast feels to me...admirable in that i think its just. i don't know i have an appreciation for people that are creative and generative. like bringing about new things into the world. its amazing and i wish i could do that. and i loathe that being this way, an artful person is almost punished by society so i feel bitter and angry on ur behalf. again i hope this didnt come out wrong or patronizing, i sincerely admire it as i am unable to much of...anything really and if it did i apologizeOh it absolutely is my destiny. In fact really even if I did everything absolutely perfect and lived up to everyone's impossibly ridiculous standards I still would have to buy the shotgun and shoot myself simply because art is the only thing I know how to do! And getting art jobs is so so so hard!
Thank you for that reply, it was very kind of you. But it's ok I mean I messed up my life so I did it to myself. And honestly these days I'm feeling more calm. I feel like if this really is my destiny then I did all I could have possibly have done. I have exhausted all other options, not to mention my body is failing me. I mean literally I feel like I am dying physically. I really need to go to a hospital. And the sad thing is I would like to continue living maybe if just for a little bit but I'm running out of time and alternatives. Anyways thanks for listening to me and sorry for the trauma dump.i hope this doesn't come out wrong but from the way you speak about "art being the only thing you know how to do" atleast feels to me...admirable in that i think its just. i don't know i have an appreciation for people that are creative and generative. like bringing about new things into the world. its amazing and i wish i could do that. and i loathe that being this way, an artful person is almost punished by society so i feel bitter and angry on ur behalf. again i hope this didnt come out wrong or patronizing, i sincerely admire it as i am unable to much of...anything really and if it did i apologize
i dont know where im going with this. i apologize.
anyways i am waiting it out so to speak. my goal is to gain enough money to ctb in a sure fire way that leaves me undisturbed. so no room for error. it is the only destiny i can see for myself. nothing else has worked out for me. i cannot live properly but my motivation rn is to minimize my suffering until i can reach my end on my own terms. this calms me.
