Someone once asked...

“is there any point in living”

✦

Someone answered with kindness...

We all have a point, and you do too. You will discover your point someday, even if it's not at the same pace as another person.

Yes!! Firstly, I've been suicidal lots of times, and have always been happy I didn't act on it the next time a good thing happened. Life is hard. But the point is what we make of it - I found it helpful to make a bucket (or ****it) list of things I may as well do before the end (e.g. coming out, telling the person I liked that I liked them, applying for jobs actually wanted, taking a 'final' trip to a holiday destination I'd always wanted to visit) and by the time I'd finished it I had a supportive queer community, new F-buddy, new job, and a load of travelling stories that made me realise it'd actually be cool to stay in the world for a few more years. Call a mental health support line and be really honest with them, talk to a medical professional (I was terrified of doing this but they were actually really helpful and non-judgemental, and didn't section me lol) and seek any other professional help you can get. Life is worth living and there IS a point - if you haven't found your point in living yet, it means you're not done!

Another soul answered...

yes, a lot of reasons, from the sound of the wind in a tree to the smile on the face of people who loves and care for you. What i mean is you dont have to have a purpose in your life to feel happy. you just have to be here and look around. Be in the moment.

Another soul answered...

Yes, but the point of life is for you to decide. Look to anything. Personally, I found my truth when I was incredibly depressed, and now I have a reason to live for.
