Why is life precious
Guys, why do we value life? What keeps you going despite misery? I feel like I should just give up.

Life is beautiful when you take a moment to really look around .. mental health can take happiness from us momentarily but nothing is forever . Find your strength ! Ocd makes our world very small .. so it’s very easy to loose interest in life but do we have to give ocd what it wants ? I hope you find some relief .. & I have these same thoughts time to time & I always question it .. but life is so beautiful . & getting involve with nature & happy peaceful hobbies can really help ! You got this .. take back your power 🙏

I’m sorry for the corny answer but family, friends, coworkers, pets, even strangers. You never know when an interaction will warm your day. Or stimulate your interests. Which that goes for you as well. You’re likely a positive influence in someone else’s life in ways you can’t imagine.

I’m going to give a more honest answer… which is I don’t know. I don’t believe that life is particularly better than death or non-existing. Life is only what you make of it. You can do absolutely anything you want. And you can value anything you want. You are going to die anyway. Why not look around a bit and see what could happen until then rather than giving up now. Misery, anxiety, fear, it’s all just an illusion that some of us struggle with more. But in all actuality, none of this shit matters

an emotional vent :(
I don’t know if it’s worth it to keep going. I have so many diagnoses, so little support, and constant struggles with finding the right medication. My immune system is weak, I have multiple deficiencies, and I’m dealing with so many physical health problems on top of severe OCD. It’s just too much. On top of everything, my family treats me so not okay. Every single day is a fight just to keep going—to wake up, to eat, to take care of myself even a little. I’ve lost over ten pounds in the last two weeks from how depressed I’ve been. And instead of support, all I get is blame. My family constantly throws my struggles in my face, calling me selfish, as if I’m choosing this. I am trying so hard to push past all of this. But after five long months of severe OCD, anxiety, depression, panic disorder, and everything else making life unbearable, I am exhausted. And to be called lazy? Selfish? *Worthless*? How am I supposed to keep going when the people around me refuse to see how hard I’m trying? I don’t want this anymore. None of this suffering feels worth it. What am I fighting for just to be treated this way by my own family? To be yelled at for the look on my face, when my face reflects nothing but the stress, panic, and despair I’m drowning in? Am I still supposed to smile for them? This isn’t fair. No one should have to live like this. I don’t deserve to be treated this way, I’m really trying to keep going, but I just want everything to end.

How to start living?
I feel like im no longer living im only 17 and i use to be so excited to turn 18 recently i feel like life is pointless and its all i think about including philosophy and i never liked that before. It has taken complete joy out of my life anything simple like watching a movie feels pointless because it has no meaning and i feel as if my life has zero meaning because i am not important. I am constantly criticizing everything. For example i went to a concert ive been dying to see and when i got there i didnt enjoy it all because i felt like it was pointless. Is there anyone that has experienced this that has advice I feel like im in hell rn
