Introductions
I guess I should introduce myself. 20 year old college student whose main problems won't go away until I die or our medical technology makes us essentially gods. Most of the time I'm able to accept my life is terrible, but for the past few months something's changed. I'm tired of things never improving, and I have a full long life ahead of me. Part of me knows nothing that can be said here will change my problems, but the rest of me is getting desperate.
No need to have a fancy introduction 
I'm really proud of you for sticking through and thriving as best as you can, I'm sure you're doing a great job because you're definitely worth it! Are you coping alright? That's important too!
@Emily619
I most definitely am not coping well, but my coping mechanisms are about the only things that work.
@BDRD
Oh no! 
What coping mechanisms do you use?
@Emily619
The better ones include distractions and procrastinations. The worse (and until the past week more common) one is self harm. I've tried other methods, the ones I have are the only ones that help.
@BDRD
Hmm so not too many positive one's, unfortunately! Have you tried any alternatives to self harm before? 
@BDRD I think you're doing brilliantly. Not only have you come on here to try and get support but you are also pushing yourself forward. Sometimes life presents us with problems that aren't possible to get over.. You might have no control over it but you have control over how you let it affect you. There are many people here to support you, and if you ever need to chat you can PM me. Stay strong :)
@SpiritedShaye
I've been strong for years now, since I was a child, with no breaks. How much longer can you honestly expect me to keep it up
@BDRD You don't have to stay strong all the time. That is why we're here to support you
