acknowledge that I exist

The line between the sane and insane is blurry. There are just reasons/causes to what we do and what happens to us. Sometimes it's just not in the light yet. It's easy for the norm/mass to dismiss the minority as abnormal. It's good that you realize your problems but don't single yourself out even further by placing yourself too deep under the abnormal section. You've been working in the "normal" society and you're surviving with the rest. Keep it up. It might not be the happiest form of existence but think of the contrary (physical/biological non-existence is more scary than it sounds when you are really aware of yourself as a being). It's in our basic instinct to survive. You're achieving that...build up from there...be patient and take it slowly. Sorry I can't give you much more than that...I acknowledge that you are a fellow being :)

Reach out to someone irl.

No one on the internet is real.

ouch...
truth hurts...
but that would mean what's mentioned above isn't real...=P I choose not to listen
Not fair to say no one online can be real. There are great friendships and relationships built from interactions on the internet. She has tried to reach out in the non-electronic reality...maybe she just wants to try something different...don't shoot her down like that

aww...thanks :D

I hope life would take a better turn for you. I'm glad what I did is appreciated. Next time...reach out with a stick first hehe. Try to find those that you can really trust...true friends in your life...:)

Sherry, I don't really know any comforting words to say, and you may not believe in God but I do, and so I just wanted to let you know that I will be praying for you. Take care, and please, don't give up hope :)

Ah, Sherry I am so sorry to hear all of that. You have been through a lot, more than most people, and I hope someday, all of your pain will be healed. Where are your parents? Do they care about you? Anyway, you DO exist! Who else would have typed that message!? I don't believe in ghosts!

I believe in ghosts ;). I don't know what to say, Sherry. Your honesty about yourself is admirable. I'm sorry I can not help more but if you would like to talk more you can PM me. I acknowledge that you exist :).

I acknowledge you hun... big bear hugz....

I believe the correct spellings would be "Prozac" and "Ritalin"...sorry but you were asking a "serious question" so I figured the spelling should be correct and coherent. :)

My mom was never able to accept the way I was years back, therefore she couldn't talk. it got to the point where i personally thought she didn't care. but, she did, and I know that now. So, i can understand how you feel with that sweetie.
it's hard, eh.
but, you see.. life goes on.
you can't change who you've been. and you can't change anything you will be until you're ready.
the time will come, and you'll realize that you're existance is true, and your life is amazing.
when that time comes, you'll be able to change. and step by step you'll walk away from your depression, fears, and the voices that are inside of you.
and, in the mean time sweetie, just make the best of what you have. even if there's no one to rely on there at home. there's still people who care about you, and that's what you have to remember.

hun, i wish you the best of luck.

and, i'm here to talk if you need anyone to talk to.
just let me know and i'll give you my e-mail.

I was always made to feel like I don't exist. I'm only there when someone needs to scream or hit someone. I'm what you would call a punching bag (a verbal and physical punching bag).
There is nothing worse than being made to feel that nobody cares about you or even worse, that noone realises that you're alive. I mean, what is the point of being alive when you're made to feel like you're dead?
