I have a lot of respect for the people on here, sharing your stories could help others and that's a real good thing to do.
I feel for darko massively, I can't imagine what you go through, I hope you you can stay positive.
For those of you who have had these feelings because of work, relationships and others, I hope it works out for you, it's sometimes hard when you go through tough times, it's hard to see a light at the end of the tunnel, the problem is we all get very caught up in what we're supposed to do, from a young age were taught to go to through as much education as we can, then on to work, then you can get a mortgage and have a family and so on. but of course, it's not always as simple as that, obstacles get in the way, ADK put it best imo.
"As a society we value productivity above happiness."
I've personally never had these thoughts, but I understand people who do, if you can, try make changes, I know it must be difficult, if you have responsibilities it can seem impossible to make changes, but it's the only way you can get to a place where you're truly happy, not just happy in the eyes of society, but happy with your life, these changes can be small, even if it's as simple as doing something you like for for a couple hours each week, it doesn't necessarily have to cost money, you could go on to make big changes, whether this be changing your career, location, anything, I'm not saying it will be easy, but that's the light at the end of the tunnel, doing and being what makes you truly happy.
I'm not an expert, I don't mean to annoy anyone and I hope I haven't said anything that does make anyone upset, but this is just my opinion from what I've gathered from reading the other posts.
