I live in a rich city in a rich country... my parents are rich, i go to a very expensive private school that i hate, and i still hate my life. I have many "friends" most of them just use me for parties and facebook pictures. I have no one to talk to about my problems and depression, but I have no reason to be sad. I have everything anyone could ever want, but I hate it. I smoke cigarettes because I'd rather just get lung cancer and die than live anymore. I don't deserve anything that I have... why do I get to have all of this stuff and other people who are more deserving have nothing. I don't have any purpose in life, why am I here, I'm just a waste of space. I'm just a self absorbed, stupid little rich girl. | |
No offence here but the biggest thing I hate about privileged individuals is how many go on to live shallow lives with drinking, parties, whining about everything etc. With so many options available you have a real chance to do something amazing in this life, you can literally choose to do whatever you want or become whoever they want to be.
Talking about what you deserve or don't deserve is pointless, what you have and what you will do with it is what matters. So you have a good education? Become a scientific researcher and help develop cures for illnesses, or a writer and write books to help others in your situation. Don't throw away the amazing chance you've been given.
I'm sorry to hear how you're depressed but you need to try and work out the root cause and fix it the best you can. If you feel you have no one to talk about real issues or your problems then try and branch out more and find someone who will listen. Join different clubs or go to different places and keep an open mind, you'll find a lot of people share similar insecurity problems and want someone to talk to, you can still keep your shallow friends who like to party and live shallow lives, but you are capable of making friends with people who have more depth who could help you out.
Just stop the smoking though, it's such a waste.
but what if my dreams depends on money. i love travelling. but i cannot afford. i love driving but i cannot afford a car..
its strange that you dont have any friends.real friends i mean. maybe you should try to spend your time in different places where you can meet different ppl. you know while partying i always feel bad. its seems that all fake faces all around me. i started to hate going to the clubs. instead of that i do some running, go to the gym or smth. try to find some hobbies. and start self-realisation.
just shut up!
So you need to figure out what your purpose is. If you care about anything, any cause, you have a gift to give. Also, perhaps explore your spirituality.
Good luck.
You have the ablilty to do so much with your life.
good luck
you are a sweetheart,
What I would suggest that you do, is find what you are really passionate about and go and do it. You have to stop listening to people around you that you have to be a doctor/accountant/layer etc. The only way to be happy is to try and find what you are truly passionate about and do it (study it, work it, have it as a hobby anything).
The fact that you come from a rich family, look at it as a good thing because you can choose your pathway.
I think the first step here... is to Look for Yourself! Don't blame yourself for anything, don't feel guilty about anything. As long as you know that you are a good person, there is nothing to feel guilty about. Although... Try to find yourself, look deep inside you, and try to find what is that could make you feel better. Helping other people perhaps?
I just want you to know, that every person is different. And maybe people around you are guilt tripping you by saying that other people would wish to have what you have. Although you are an individual, different as everyone and unique. If you cannot see happiness with what is provided to you, there must be a reason, maybe you are more of a humanitarian type of person, maybe you are more of a free spirit.
Money helps, when you don't have it you struggle, but noone says as soon as you have it everything is solved. Try to look at everything from a positive point of view. And all that about rich country/family etc look at it as it can help you achieve what YOU really want to achieve and not other people. Step one... find what really interests you.
When you look inside yourself ... you will know who is really your friend as well, because you know what you value the most and what not.
Hope helped a little bit. x
