i dont understand life anymore

these few days i just keep getting so mad and i sleep with a heavy heart every night. ever since that one boy i met asked me for inappropriate things i just felt that everything was my fault. i just feel so sad and i cry ever second over little things. i get mad over the smallest things and i dont know why. i need help. all i need is just someone to talk to.. im just a girl trying to understand the meaning of life . these few days i feel like im fighting so hard for the life i dont even want to be alive in. am i really broken?

Hi @user7983,

I’d like to assure you that what happened to you was not your fault, and the weight you’re carrying now is a reflection of how deeply you feel.

Anger, sadness, and confusion are all valid responses to betrayal and violation, especially when trust was misused. It was not acceptable, in any way, for the boy to make inappropriate advances towards you.

It makes sense that everything feels heavier right now, like you’re fighting to stay afloat in a world that doesn’t feel safe. But even in this emotional storm, your voice matters, and you’re not alone.

With that said, I’d like to gently encourage you to speak to someone about this. There are a handful of resources (such as National Mindline) which are available on the First Stop for Mental Health: mindline.sg | First Stop for Mental Health Support in Singapore

Professional resources are also available on this weblink. Hope this is helpful! :+1:

Dear @user7983

It’s good you wrote in to share what you are experiencing. Please know you are not broken. I think it’s understandable you are feeling low and I am hearing this was heightened following the incident with the boy. I sense you are feeling hurt and blaming yourself for what has happened. I also sense you are caught in a negative thought cycle.

Please do not feel alone as there is help available. I suggest you reach out to your school counsellor soon( if you are in school). The national mindline (1771) that @Obi_Wan_Kenobi mentioned is also another option you can call soon to get the unconditional support as you journey through this time of your life. It operates 24/7 and manned by competent and caring counsellors.

Please also gently remind yourself that what you are going through presently will pass so keep taking tiny steps forward. Do reach out here too whenever needed for support. Remember your life is immensely precious and you matter. Sending you warmth and care. :yellow_heart:

Thank you @CaringBee for chipping in! :+1:

hi, thank you for sharing, and from what I understand you are feeling overwhelmed, and that weight must be difficult to bear. it is not right for the boy to push you and ask for things you are not comfortable with. you can consider the support mentioned above, as it may help to have someone to listen. :heart_hands:
