Do you feel like your life sucks?

Yes, because I have never really had a life, just an existence. Very little has ever gone in my favour. I have already tried to end it thrice.
I have those moments, but it's usually linked to my bouts of depression. In reality, I have had a pretty good life, even if different from what I might have envisioned. Success in my own career, good marriage, son turned out well and has started off his career well. So if I feel like my life sucks, it's a pretty good sign it's my mood moreso than my life that's the problem.
I guess not. I don't have what I want, but I have a lot. I've worked hard to get here. I could have a lot more if I had a different personality.
hmm i was thinking to say something but i don't need.
Your words there describe also mine
Not compared to this time in 2021; six days after Oct. 12th, 2021 I was admitted to the hospital for voluntary commitment after wanting to kill myself.

i accept it since it's the only way to deal with it because there's no changing it.

I'm thinking it's to marry me
Sometimes.
Some things aren't the way I want them to be. In fact, a lot of things aren't the way I want them to be. I have issues with anxiety I simply wish I didn't have. I am not particularly passionate about my day job. My desires to be a successful writer have, for the most part, went unanswered no matter how much effort I put into it. I'm burnt out a lot and sometimes it feels like my day's off blur together. It can be exhausting and soul-crushing at times, really.
At the same time, I have a wife I love who loves me back. I am twenty-seven years old and I have never been unemployed. I have never lived paycheck to paycheck (at any point, I could be unemployed for a year and, for the most part, survive it because of how much I have saved up) and I own a nice three bedroom house. Those are things that certainly aren't a given and things that I am thankful for. I am educated and have a decent skillset, and I am, for the most part, healthy.
A lot of the things I have, other people would kill for. I realize this, not to minimize the problems I do have, but to understand that I'm, at the end of the day, ... okay.

I feel the same way like it was snatched from me as a small child 😢
Some days the bottom just drops out
