I do wonder what if I was never born, I have never wished or wanted myself dead. Also I wouldn't be posting in this thread if the op wasn't alive in the first place, think about that for a minute.
Poll: Does everybody wish they were not alive?

Well seeing as I am staring down the possibility of failing 2 classes, which would send my GPA under a 2.0 for a second time, putting me on the list for academic termination (Expulsion by any other name). No. Can't say I do wish that.
Sure the fact that I had a teacher who put 3 questions at the beginning of the final exam that determine whether he grades the exam at all is not a good experience, dealing with my family after this semester is going to be tough, and my heart currently feels like it is taking a vacation next to my colon but I wouldn't trade these moments for anything. Even bad experiences are experiences that I am lucky to have.

You found my word!
I have been trying to remember it for weeks!
OT: Yeah.....life is crappy when the prospects are bleak.... And I'm still in school, I apparently am not supposed to feel disillusioned.
It's especially crap when everything you do is surpassed by people smarter than you. I despise people who seem to be talented in every aspect of life. Not really as an outward thing, but more like: "I am a poorly bred and under-evolved human compared to you. You leave me no competitive edge in life." They just....make people like me feel absolutely worthless. And everything else besides me is so....screwed up, too.
But I'm working hard in acedemics and my extra curricular activity, so I won't be left in the dust.
And my extra curricular activity, is my independent self-teaching to become a CARTOONIST. And it's going well, mind you.
But otherwise, I lack ambition. But even a bland soul like me presses on. So should the OP. I have enough good things to help me ignore the bullcrap.
We need a song by Queen, here.
Sometimes I do wonder what it would be like for other people if I had never existed.
However, I'm here, so I might as well stay a while. So no, I've never really wanted to die. Too much to live for.

I wish people would stop saying that. I've been out of school three years. If anything, it's worse because now I'm free and responsible for myself. And with all this freedom and responsibility, I'm stuck in a dead end miserable dangerous job for minimum wage. Imagine getting paid to go to P.E. and it was your only source of income. If I had bought into that "it gets better" bunk when I was still in school (that phrase didn't exist yet), I would have offed myself years ago. Make no mistake, bullying and threats from authority figures don't end once you get out of the education system.New Frontiersman said:
My point is that holding "it gets better" over people's heads only disappoints them more when they are let down. Don't worry, high school is better. Don't worry, college is better. Don't worry, real life is better. If I recall correctly, each new section sucked more than the previous. And don't tell me "retirement is better" because at this rate, I will never ever be able to retire.
The last secret "it gets better" activity I hadn't experienced was sex and I managed to do that a few months ago. Don't get me wrong, sex is nice, but it is absolutely devastating once you realize how few people are willing to do it with you. Especially if you loved the only person who would and she never talks to you anymore. That sucks, too.
Nope, I love being alive. Mostly. Yeah, I go through some down times, but overall, it's pretty good.
Hell no, I really really enjoy life, and even though school sometimes put me into a massive panic mode, and I never have as much time for my friends as I would like, I love my life. I suppose that I could go on for several pages about how awesome it is but instead I'll just leave you all with a song,

ah, you know its almost summer when the FML threads start.
I used to hate life back when I lived with my parents, then moving out made everything 1000%* better.

I have very many aspirations but sadly after wasting so much time in my childhood I would find it extremely difficult to follow many of them.
This doesn't make me wish I was not alive, very much the opposite in fact, I want more time.
I wish I could write a book, make a game, learn a musical instrument or eight, become fluent in several languages, travel the world and meet new people, run a race (and win!), find a life partner, have children, become filthy stinking rich, learn EVERYTHING.
Life is too short to waste, if you hate your current situation then change it.

I'm sorry, but this just kind of pisses me off. Not everyone can control whether or not they're happy. Some people's families are shit, some people's friends are shit, some people's lives are shit, and there's no way short of being mentally insane that they can just stop being sad, lonely, or depressed.Vault101 said:
Basically what I'm saying is you come off as incredibly ignorant.
thats true, Im incredibly happy beause Ive been very lucky in life..and alot of people arnt so luckyDango said:
Im in no position to give advice or judge others...and there is stuff thats beyond out control
but attitude is within our control, and I think attitude can play a large part...
of coarse Im NOT saying attitude will help if youve been abused or had a horrible experience/upbrining..for that you need help, and the strength to seek help
but I get the impression soem peopel are msierable and will always be miserable because they don;t see it any other way, in fact i even get the impression they want everyone around them to be miserable, to stamp out any kind of optimism under the Idea its "stupid and niave" all of a sudden to be a cynical bastard is "cool" (no Im not applying that to all bad situations,liek the REAL bad ones... but somtimes I think people need to lighten the fuck up)
to put things in perspective and try and find somthing or some reason to move forward is I think is important, if you belive the glass is half empty then its half empty
but Im just making shit up so don't mind me
