Most people dont know that I suffer from anxiety and depression and that Ive had suicidal thoughts. Most people ask me how Im class president, captain of the volleyball team, a band member, choir member etc etc but the truth is I cant sleep at night because my anxiety is so bad

I've been nice to everyone because I dont know how to be nice to myself. Ive neglected my self and my mental health.
That I'm lonely. I talk to pretty much everyone around me but I can't find anyone I would actually be friends with. I laugh a lot to hide the fact that I hate my life.
I'm totally afraid of the future
@courteousJar6130
you and me both!
I dont have anyone to talk to. I feel sad and alone. I think about many things that I didnt do and what I may have done. I try to be fine but sometimes it is impossible. I arrive at my house and I sit down to cry a lot. in the afternoon I go to the park to run and my thoughts follow me. While I'm running, I feel like crying again. the motivation doesnt come to me and even so I take action to leave my house to do workout. Sometimes it works, sometimes not.
I am willing to take action before the motivation arrives. otherwise I would sit in my house and cry like crazy.
This is a very uncomfortable situation. I want to get out of this feeling and feel better about myself. I'm trying. God knows what I'm trying.
I just hope to be better in a few weeks. i hope so.

I totally understand how you feel... it is not easy. You totally deserve people who understand you and talk to you. Thankfully, life is going to get better sooner or later. Just the fact that you're willing to take action when necessarily lets me know that you're probably on the right path.
Have you looked into any motivational speakers. Like Caroline Leaf? She has helped me learn to control my emotion and to be more joyful in life.

I long for comfort and I'm driven by the idea of being the best at everything (not gonna happen but it won't hurt to try lmao)
I overthink everything and get anxious about small stuff and that i
That I have a very rich inner life narrated with a very doubtful and negative self talk. That Ive been thinking about going to therapy for a long time, but am too afraid of the stigma. People dont really talk about mental health issues in my surroundings.
I very often think about myself as not very lovable or valuable.
But ofc, I try to keep my cool.
