No, they can't, but maybe they can help you deal with your unhappiness and depression in such a way that you can start making changes. Maybe they can help you find the resources take some classes, or find a different job you weren't aware of, or get you in touch with a doctor who can help with medication.

Maybe they can help with lower cost housing so that you could work some *other* job while you explore your options. Social services have, if nothing else, lists and lists of organizations, of people, of societies and government offices that do nothing but figure things out for people that are struggling.

They maybe can't *fix* things, but they very likely can put you on the road to fixing things *yourself*, with help and guidance and a supporting boost when you need it.

What you're saying here are the things to say to the people at the hotline, the crisis center, the social services office, your/a doctor. Someone out there - maybe more than one someone - will have the know-how, the connections, or the resources to help.

I have a degree and a field I would like to work on I just can’t get a job in it here and it’s a useless degree/field anyway, but I literally am bad at everything else. I can’t move to a better job market cause I don’t have enough money. I can’t go to the doctor for the same reasons. The job and housing market are both abysmal here and I don’t even own a car so I can’t commute. And none of this changes the fact that I will have to go to my job tomorrow and spend another day contemplating drinking bleach because it makes me so actively miserable. I can’t live for a promise of a future that might never happen.

Re: Tw suicide

But it very well *might* happen. It might happen and be amazing. You have a degree, so obviously you're not stupid. You did enough college to *get* a degree, so you obviously have the ability to do something and stick with it.

You might be able to do something similar but not quite exactly your degree, and again - this is where other people come in, who can help find things to your advantage, who can point you toward stuff you didn't know was available, who can show you options you might not have thought of.

I can only say, with true sincerity, that i think there's more for you in your life than a revoltingly painful death in a random hotel room. I think there are people around you who can help, and I think there's a future for you that doesn't suck.

I think you have that in you, and I think you can do it with help, and you've made the first step, by reaching out and saying aloud what is going on. I think you have the ability to do so much more, with someone - or several someones - giving you a boost.

I really do. I hope you can find that belief in yourself, Anon, I hope you can find something to ease your pain and give you some joy. Please talk to someone else later tonight, again in the morning, every day until you find someone who can really *help* you.

I understand what you’re saying - what I’m saying is the future brings me absolutely no comfort right now. My present hurts too much, and the idea of suffering like this for any longer to get to a good future doesn’t feel worth it anymore.

That said I’m going to go to sleep now - thank you for talking to me even though I argued with you the whole time. I really really mean that, you were very kind to me. Maybe I will feel better in the morning. Thank you.

Re: Tw suicide

[tabaqui]

I understand, Anon - I just hope for better, or different, or something, because I hate the thought of anyone being that unhappy.

And hey - arguing? A sign of life. If you really didn't care, you wouldn't have even bothered posting.

I hope you feel a bit better after sleeping, after talking. Please take care.
*hugs*

Lower cost housing and the homeless shelters are shitty. Please don't send her there. Government social services is a crap thing. I know what I'm talking about because I am currently stuck in it all. (Minus the shelters/ ghetto housing.)

Re: Tw suicide

[tabaqui]

I'm not sending anyone anywhere, just pointing out some resources. If you have better suggestions, please add them, rather than kibitzing.
