Yeah no.
Well I'm a nihilist.
When I think too much I always end up thinking about the reason for the existence of humanity.I am nihilistic.I believe there is no reason, or that the reason is incredibly pathetic.Humans are wired to reproduce in order to make sure that humanity will have another human to carry it on.The thought of this makes me believe that we lead an arbitrary existence.
You could say that I have had a shitty childhood (personal reasons I don't feel like telling).
I know how you feel. Like this is all meaningless. School will fly by, and then life as a whole will fly by in the same manner.
I find it helpful to not think about how short our lives are as humans.

Try to take periodic escapes from reality. Sit down and get yourself enveloped in another universe. My personal favorite is Tolkien's.
You can find different ways to escape such as movies, books, television programs, music etc.
I find expressing yourself also helps tremendously. Talk to someone. Write your thoughts down. It doesn't need to be poetic or anything too. A simple haiku takes me close to 30 minutes to write, but when I'm done I feel better about myself knowing that I was able to express myself.
you'll get over it in a day
:iiam:
Oh, you're 14.
:ms:
You still have a long way to go, it may seem like life is short and time has flew by, but it's only the beginning. Don't worry, try and do the things that cheer you up or things to keep it off your mind.
Hey, this shit is happening to me too.
But don't worry.
This is LIFE, this is supposed to be AWESOME, and you're gonna have ALOT of FUN.
Get laid, get new friends, meet new people.
As a guy said to me, "This is your ONE chance, as far as we know. The point is to ride a golden elephant above everyone else with both your middle fingers up. You're supposed to have fun, not be depressed."
So do it. Have fun ;P

[QUOTE=grimestreaper;19071497]I'm having a no-life crisis. It happens when...you have no life.[/QUOTE]
Actually, it happened because I stopped gaming so much. It's a phase you shoulda gone through as a kid, and didn't care, then life would've been much better.
I'm kind of in the same situation. Haven't thought of suicide yet, that's just stupid.
Just remember that every dark cloud passes, you just have to hang on. It'll get better eventually.
You need to find something to do, to have fun and take your mind away from this shit.
[QUOTE=JoeSkylynx;19065047]Your just experiencing puberty chief. The depression is something that lasts for a little while (got it still) but it shouldn't bug you that much.
You also might have an un-balance of genetic chemicals which will make you have a bi-polar mood (such as myself) trust me. About last week I was sitting and [b]I ate a chocolate bar and I ended up holding a knife telling people if they came anywhere near me I would kill them[/b]. [b]In those cases it's nothing major[/b] just you need to talk it out and have someone restrain you.
In any case I would suggest taking some vitamins or supplement with a variety of food that carry a supplements of what your lacking.[/QUOTE]
:wtc:
At first my response would have been "WTF?". Then I read the first post. Makes a lot of sense.
I'd say the time throughout 12-14, I was at my lowest. Constantly depressed, I guess it was puberty, I dunno. But It seems to be like that for all teenagers in those ages. So don't feel all alone about it. Your not the only one in your school going home and feeling alone and contemplating life. The only other time I've had depression problems is 16, and I'm not too great now either. But don't worry. Life is life.

If you don't read the OP you're just asking for trouble (see my ban history :v:)
I have been in a bit of a downer before, it passes. I basically felt like I was completely useless at everything :saddowns:
I feel the same way as the OP.
Your going to die when your 28.
Get the fuck over it. You probably live in a two story house with a butler. Take life how it is, see the positives.
Its Christmas dammit, chin up.
Yeah, no shit life is short. But if you keep thinking about how short it is now, when you're 80, you're going to be saying, "holy shit".
Lighten up, remember, there is always internet porn.

Oh man, just leave, you aren't helping poor OP and aren't original by saying "look at pronzors hurr".
Just so you know OP I'm 14 also, and I'm there for you bro :saddowns: I'd go into more detail about your "crisis" but I just learned I have horrible communication skills.
[QUOTE=Mister B;19064211]Alright, I've had this on my chest for a long while now, and I need to get it off.
Yes, it's one of "those threads". The kind where someone you don't even know is telling you his problems. Well, just let me have it out, it'll make me feel better.
Alright. Recently I've been feeling pretty down, and by recently I mean since around the beginning of November. I wouldn't say it's clinical depression, but I don't know. Anyways, what I've been down about is the shortness of life. This is the way I'm thinking:
Think back to a time where you thought something was taking forever, eg. getting out of school. Now it's long gone, it's passed seemingly instantaneously. Now, recently I've applied this thinking to the whole of life, and this means that life is instantaneous and we all might as already be dead. Coming to terms with my own mortality.
I've been doing some research on this, and I've come to the conclusion that I'm having a mid-life crisis.
I'm 14.
I shouldn't be having a mid-life crisis at 14.
I have had thoughts of suicide, but I immediately brush it off as crazy. Still, the fact that I have even thought of it scares me.
There, I've said it. You can post whatever you want now, knowing that someone knows this problem of mine makes me feel better. Suggestions are appreciated, though.

Boo fucking hoo, I misspelled some stuff.

Ever heard of teen angst? We all have it. Either kill yourself or suck it up.
[QUOTE=ZaurZawrZore;19066371][b]MisterB[/b]
I don't want to hurt your feelings, but if you were really going to commit suicide, you would have done it the first day. So, forget that suicide nonsense. It is only good for sympathy once or twice anyway. So, now start asking yourself why you feel the way you do. You are responsible for your own feelings. No one make you feel good or bad about anything. -- Go out and buy the DVD "The Secret". Watch a chapter a day and take notes. Its powerful stuff and will get you looking positive and grateful for what you have. You then will be on your way to a better frequency to attract good things you wish and desire in your life. I have been going through the same thing for the last 5 months after I stopped playing Runescape. Its going to take time and effort. Start changing everything you can think of. Start running. Become dedicated. I ran my first marathon to keep me focused on positive results, and it felt really good when I finished.[/QUOTE]
I hate it when you try to help someone and they don't reply.
When I read "I'm 14", I just thought, "Puberty". Then I read the first reply, and laughed.
God, I fucking hate teenagers.
I'll be at your funeral in 14 years.
I mean what?
Sounds nasty, see a therapist.
Who preferably isn't a whore or a car dealership owner or witch doctor.

Runescape did this to you? Then Jagex is my enemy!
[QUOTE=Warren Holzem;19105382]God, I fucking hate teenagers.[/QUOTE]
Agreed.
Grow the fuck up, OP.
[QUOTE=Nyaos;19064313]I felt the same why when I was around 18-19 going into college. Don't worry so much about death because it's something that no one avoids. Instead, think about how awesome it is to currently be who you are, and a free willed individual. What were the chances that you ended up as a human rather than some other lifeform? Enjoy your life to it's fullest, and try to experience everything it has to offer.
Medication is not the answer if doctors suggest it. You must discover yourself through your own contemplation and philosophy. It won't be easy, I remember some nights I couldn't sleep because I was so terrified. But in the end, you will come out much stronger, and have a better appreciation for life.
[editline]07:14PM[/editline]
And yes, everything does get better. In fact, my life has been much better since I thought about this stuff.[/QUOTE]
If the doctor recommends him on some sort of anti-depressant it is really dangerous for him to go off of it you fuck. Stop giving people medical and emotional advice. Bad advice.
Wtf I never felt like this going through puberty.
You're fucking dumb start listening to Rush.
For insecure.

Wow, yeah that's exactly what I said. Growing up isn't easy, it isn't easy for anyone. Stop acting like a victim of your own life and take some damn initiative.
Life sucks, you are probably still living a life of luxury, just like the OP.
