What are you living for?

I feel the same dude. I don't know why the **** I'm living. I have lost hope in future and I don't have anything to live for so that makes really hard to continue doing anything.

I live to learn

My cat. Seriously, such motivation to keep living.

Also, I wouldn't want people to look at me if I died. Or talk about me. So, I keep being alive.

To achieve and not to fail.

Thanks everyone, I'm feeling so much better overnight after reading all your posts. Youngglarry1977, I'm sorry I didn't realize I could kill somebody's inspiration, I hope I haven't. Everyone seems to have made their own little world to live for, so that's what I'm gonna do. Thanks to each one who's replied. And I loved the video, I had watched it here before but it makes much more sense when you need it the most.
Cheers

I don't always realize it, but I think my dog has given me a whole lot. With her just being around me, relying on me, leaning against my legs from time to time... she has been a great friend. She loves me no matter how much of a failure I am.

Plus, I live for my writing/art in general and hopefully finding love someday. I have my favorite little tv programs, musicians, and movies that help.

Yeah, I don't want there to be that moment where the police walk into my room to discover my dead body or something. Awkward I guess...

I'm living because I'm dying to know what other people are living for.

I live for the chance of finally getting my first girlfriend... That and I would like to finally build a home on my property and to travel to a few more destinations before I die...

Yeah, I just don't trust people. It's a lot of vanity too. I also know that if I were to commit suicide, it wouldn't gruesome. (Are we allowed to talk about that?)

Great video, mr. B. I loved it. I agree with the advices in there 100%. Wish that I'd be able to walk the walk though

I don't really live for anything. But I occupy myself with stuff like working or studying or improving myself. I'm reasonably happy.

i keep a list of things happening in the future, to inspire me to want to stick around. it's mostly movies and space-related things. it actually helps a bit.

My mother, step-dad and dog. Everyone else is self absorbed and could give a **** about me or my happiness.

At the moment I feel like I'm living for nothing. But I kinda like it, is that sad? It seems to me sometimes that I am going back in progressing to be a more open person. I use to be very social and I find it more easier now to just ignore people because they suck. Even if it's a negative attitude or action towards someone else. I just think I'd be really good at living life as a hermit but rationally I know that's not healthy.

I guess I'm living for my mom. I take care of her, but I don't think she really cares about me. I also live for my cats. They need me & love me.

living in "hope" for change and a better future, mum, dad, sister

I live.... becuase someday... i know i will be what i want.. ASE Service Master Tech!!! LT1..

sometimes i think of suicide... to end all this worry... i really hate it
