My partner was convicted of a crime he didn't commit. We have spent years of our life and tens of thousands of dollars fighting the case and we failed. He has attempted suicide and suffers from severe depression and anxiety. He will probably never be able to get a job, and we will probably never be able to move back to my home country like we had planned. All because one person decided to make this accusation. Our lives will never be the same. What hurts the most is knowing that he is going through hell and I can't make it better. You can see the emotional pain in his eyes and it tears me apart.

My parents are emotionally, mentally and physically abusive to me and they can't see it. I have vivid dreams about murdering them both, I can't trust myself around knives because all I ever think about when I see knives is burying them into their chests and watching the life drain from their eyes.

I just saw three separate stories of gay people getting engaged or married and I want to scream because I will Never have that. Being gay is just fine. I just am jealous that they're heading toward weddings and I'm not. Just wants to get that off my chest. 🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈

I have ruined my career by my own hands due to a love of my life and now I am regretting my career. I never wanted to get into civil engineering still I did it to be in the same college as my ex-boyfriend. But he never returned. I spoiled my four years waiting for him. He roamed around with his girlfriend for all those years. I went mad and got into depression. I took to my fantasies and take up a course that I wanted to study. But I could not forget that guy. In the phase of depression, I dated a man who was double my age. He exploited me mentally by saying he was in love with me but he wasn't. I was shattered and married with an arranged marriage guy the choice of my parents. Although he has turned out to be a good partner I was broken inside after marriage for my old reasons and in trying to find the solace I wanted to again date a man double my age. But this time I managed to control my feelings and avoided this bond at the cost of my career as he was my owner and had to leave job.

i've hid something from my parents. i can't say what it is here, but it makes me feel horrible. i hope to tell them today, but i'm not confident in myself.

I am a sophmore in highschool. My anxiety is getting worse and I think I'm developing depression. I see everyone in school around me dating, having sex, doing drugs. I want to do all off things but I'm afraid of disappointing my mom. I've already done edibles and it makes me sick thinking that I betrayed my mom's trust like that. But, I still want to do reckless things that I know are bad for me just so I can feel something, thrill, excitement, happiness.

I’ve fallen for someone who is caught up in their life circumstances and is constantly busy. I look forward to a text or call all day, I dream about them, and I am there for them without question. Sometimes it feels like they don’t reciprocate the same feelings because of how they text. Other times it’s the opposite. I know how I feel, but getting them to talk about their emotions is difficult. I would wait a decade for them, but I need to know whether they’re playing games or not.

I just wanted to confess that I used to have a problem with codependency and getting too close to people. I wasn’t raised with any boundaries, and for the first few years of my adult life, I entered into relationships without boundaries as well. I really hurt people I cared about, without it ever being my intention to do so. I’ve changed a lot and am now a well balanced human being, but I think back on those times and regret decisions I made. I wish I could erase that part of my life.
