SuicideFuel How do you cope with lost youth

[Deleted member 5089]

I'm 27 and I just feel old. I felt much better when I was young, now as I'm approaching my thirties I feel increasingly suicidal. I spent my youth locked away at small rooms and mental facilities. And i'm still mentally ill, taking a lot of medications... but at times when I'm lucid it haunts me that I will never again be a teenager. How does one cope with lost youth? I feel like suicide is the only valid cope

You don't.

You can only cope with the rope.

 

[jet112]

EDIT: i was stuck at home for 7 years because of agoraphobia. its tough but i have to live life as intended

That's the question that's never far from my mind. When I ask normal people, they tell me "All you can do is push on. Getting old is about letting go." But that doesn't work for me. So what I plan on doing is asking a bunch of psychiatrists how they usually treat mid-life crises and things like that. And see if that works for me.

[TheRealChincel]

You...can’t, OP. All that’s left is trying to be content but never happy and then one day we pass on.

Vodka tends to work for me.

Lol "midlifcrisis" your adulthood never began

I feel like suicide is the only valid cope

Because it´s true.
Happiness ends after childhood, exciting and memorable experiences ends after the teenage years are over due to friends splitting up because of educations etc. and the most prominent reason; because we no longer have those high levels of hormones like teenagers have. Life ends at age 20 or at least it did for me from that moment I didn´t have any racing hormones like I had as a teenager that made me feel so very much and also made everything so exciting.

 

[RopeMaXXer]

Whenever I have regrets I try to imagine actually reliving those periods of life.

What would most likely happen is that there was a very good reason for why you were the way you were. You'd run into the same grievances and have the same troubles as before. You'd try to spice things up here and there but you'd mostly do just as well.
It doesn't matter, the only thing that could've and should've happened happened.

Blocking it out of my mind helps a lot. Stay busy and active and keep your brain focused on other things besides how you are the bottom 1% of all humans on this Earth.

Another thing I do to cope is sexual fantasies. Watch a lot of porn. Pretend i'm a little shota boy and my mommy's hot single friend wants to fuck me. Or I'm a teen getting that teen pus at a concert while listening to my favorite band. Shit like that. Just believe so hard and convince yourself so hard you think it could have possibly actually happened at one point. I mean I guess that is delusional but what else do we have?

Oh and drugs. I don't partake in drug usage but I hear many good things they do to escape.

 

[Mik_TFL]

I'm 27 too, and was also in a mental institution although only briefly, so I feel you.
In essence, truly accepting that the past is in the past and that you can't change it anyway is what does it for me. As an incel you need to rid yourself of unnecessary burdens, regret being one of them. Easier said than done.

 

[Michael15651]

I don't, I spend nights watching online relationships between teens meet up for the first time. It's rage and suifuel which hopefully one of these days would motivate me to rope.

 

[starystulejarz]

don’t remind me please

I had that thought that as incel you should never recalling past since it only gives you pain, you should focus on present and future.

 

[Mainländer]

Write a song expressing your frustration about it, have an actual cute white teenage girl come saying it's beautiful and you're talented, make the mistake of engaging a bit with her just to read her saying she's ugly, go to her channel and realize she looks like your fucking biggest onitis ever during her prime, not having any way to respond to that other than sperging out boiling with rage, massively boosting her ego by saying you'd kill to even kiss a girl like her, or lying sounding like a volcel, feel like shit afterwards

Women ruin absolutely everything, even without doing anything really. Thank you mods for banning them on sight here.

I cope by realising that I was never going to have a socially and sexually fulfilling youth no matter what I did, because of my face being as it is.

There was nothing I could have done differently to have a more enjoyable youth, so that knowledge makes me feel much better about the past.

I cope thinking that I have lost nothing important. I’m a great coper and I truly believe I have lost nothing important.

Keep your mind busy. I work, and when I get back from work I play vidya games. Too much free time when you don't do anything or do low actibivity like browsing internet and you will think more about it. Randomly you will still think about how much you lost, but according to science(well and common sense), the more you think about it, the more those thoughs will come back to you independently.
You can also try meditation. I highly recommend it, I use mindfullness for chronic pain, I get that 90% of users here don't have chronic pain, but even for people without it it would be helpful as everybody here have emotional/mental pain

THIS!

How could I have the resources as a teenager and a poor jobless young adult to do a genioplasty, jaw implants, nosejob, blefaroplasty, gynecomastia surgery, laser skin resurfacing... while I was saving pennies to pirate videogames?
