I mean, seriously. You live. You go through Hell. You breathe. You have maybe a few good times, and a million bad. And then you die. What's the point? What's the reason? Why?
I hate life lately. I'm in fucking special ed classes now at school, like I'm some idiot. Just because I'm emotionally unstable and can't come to school like I should. It sucks. I hate the classes. I hate the people at my school. They're immature losers who swear too much and make out in the hallways and disgust me.
A message to the world: Grow the hell up. Being a teenager doesn't mean you have to be immature. Have some common sense. Act your age.
I want to go away to school, I found one online I really like. But of course we don't have enough money.
So I've come to the conclusion: Life sucks, then you die. So why drag it out longer? I hate this. =/

Life is all you have, and depending on your beliefs, you only get one. The pros outweigh the cons, otherwise we'd all be killing ourselves left and right.
Maybe there is a point to life. Or there isn't. Only dead people know that, and until scientists find a way to come back from the dead, tough luck for us.

Your dragging yourself through these things. No one says you have to stay around and listen to someone say shit about you. People are fucking immature, its High School Its full or hormones, and people who are not honest. Because they're not honest with themselves. I don't know what you are expecting in saying grow the hell up. people in high school, do/say stupid shit. Yet you'll be gone in a few years off to college and starting your new life. So why does it matter what people say in high school.....In 10 years you'll come back to your reunion and tell everyone about how you made something of your life, and all those kids who were immature, are going to be the ones at your reunion with the sweatpants with holes in them.

In the great scheme of it all, you're right. There is no point actually. But the reason we live is exactly what Mercury said. We don't have anything else to do. How fun is it to not live at all? You don't even get one good time, let alone all the great times you can have in life. The devil's in the details however.
To me, I'd rather have a horrible life than no life at all. I know that point of view isn't always something people can understand, but it's how I've seen it for the longest time. Hey, I haven't had this perfect storybook life. But I have an interesting story to tell of where I've been and what I've done.
I agree with what you say about teenagers also. And in general, everybody. I can't blame teenagers as much, but I've met many adults who can't even live up to my maturity, and I'm barely an adult. Classmates used to annoy the shit out of me as well. I always questioned what they lived for, how they could bear themselves everyday. Ignorance is not bliss, but I believe it's more like tolerance at least. I don't think I could be as happy as I am, which could be well improved even, if I had a life like that. Boring, perfect, meaningless.

Life is indeed pointless and it is a bottomless pit. Somehow or something urges your body to fill that empty void.
Look at your current condition. You are living under a roof, in an air conditioned room, you have food, you have your family! What else you want?
There are people who have non of that... do you think that they also have the same philosophy as you? I bet not.

Instead of focusing on how much your life sucks, maybe you could try to improve it?

I hate 89% of life. But you know what? That 11% of life that's somewhat good keeps me waking up every morning for more. The whole 100% is so amusing to watch go down because I know in the end we will ALL be dead so whats the bother in worrying about life sucking? Everyones life sucks at some point or another. You just have to embrace the suck and enjoy both aspects. Become the most optimistic pessimist around!

I agree with the first post life is a ridicules concept when you look at it when you think about it you relies all life is a hollow and meaningless existents with no prepose but to produce healthy offspring and continue the genus and we continue to live because were instingshule driven to and y do we not just kill our self’s like I plan to do at age 30 but that’s a different story but most humans don’t do this because were to afraid of dying were afraid of not knowing what happens when we die (rot and brake in to our base cells with no conciseness) but don’t worry with our current society we should see humanity fall apart in a few generations and the current generation of teens and children will play a big role in that there is an over whelming amount of kids and teens who are making a mockery of the education system and suffer the inability to enter and then cope with school and then the work force we are now developing poor dietary and lifestyle standards and so the economy and health system fall apart then society starts to fall apart people panic and thell rip each other apart to try and survive and I’ll sit at watch and laugh hysterically as it all falls apart
That’s all I have to say for now if you want to hear more of my insane ramblings pm me I don’t sleep so just about eney time is fine

I personally find life to be a beautiful thing. Sure, we might not all get what we want in life, and things might go wrong, but you will live a worse life if you only look at the negative.
If you have read Anne Frank's Diary, you know her story, and you should have picked up on that she was happy amidst negative circumstances all around. Death was around every corner, and it eventually caught up to the family when they got caught. Anne Frank was optimistic up to the day she died, according to her father. He said that she loved being outside again, even if it was in a concentration camp.
I think that if Anne Frank could be positive in such dire circumstances, we can be too. Yes, life is hard, but it is all what you make of it, as the old expression goes.
I recently wrote this to a friend on Facebook:
"I recently heard that some woman who was kidnapped over in, well, I'm not sure where it was, but that's not t...he point, and everyday she would think about and say outloud what she was thankful for. For example, she was greatful that she had food, that she was still alive, that she wasn't sick, etc.
It might work for you. I hope so. No one deserves to be miserable all the time."
I have tried this exercise, and it has worked for me. There is so much in life to be thankful for if you only look for it.
Here, I'll share with you some of my favorite quotes. They keep me going when life gets hard:
“Life is full of beauty. Notice it. Notice the bumble bee, the small child, and the smiling faces. Smell the rain, and feel the wind. Live your life to the fullest potential, and fight for your dreams.”
~ Ashley Smith
To Have Succeeded
To laugh often and love much:
To win respect of intelligent people
And the affection of children;
To earn the approbation of honest critics
And endure the betrayal of false friends;
To appreciate beauty;
To find the best in others;
To give one's self;
To leave the world a little better,
Whether by a healthy child,
A garden patch,
Or redeemed social condition;
To have played and laughed with enthusiasm
And sung with exultation;
To know even one life has breathed easier
Because you have lived...
This is to have succeeded.
~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
