For the first time in my life I'm considering suicide
Not because I have depression. I love life, I have good friends, a loving family, a stable financial situation, hobbies, my life is alright. But I'm tired of failing, I fail at everything I try, I haven't even graduated from college after 7 years. My entire life so far has been a series of failures and disappointments, and I disappoint not only myself but also those around me who always thought I'd be something great. I'm just really fucking tired and ashamed. I never thought I'd commit suicide because I honestly love life, but this idea has been growing on me a lot recently, it just feels very comfortable to know I can just end everything and never feel ashamed again.

I won't read threads where the underlying and self-inflicted problem is that OP never completes things that he starts, including life itself. The remedy is obviously to to start by finishing something small and building from there, but OP won't do this and instead will whine as if "failing" is an a cosmic force of nature beyond all human understanding. And that, people, is why I won't read such things.

No point in killing yourself since you are going to die anyway. Just ride it and life might actually get better

Honestly I think you need to learn methods of dealing with shame better because the way you're dealing with shame is the exact wrong way of doing so.

It took me about 6.
My cousin gave up, I didn't.
My cousin is rich and living the life, I am the most miserable neet in the world.
You win some. You lose some.
Don't feel too bad friend.
Just do your thing and roll on.
If you want to get good at something, you always can. Just find something you like, and put in effort. Simple as.

These are two mutually exclusive realities, dumbass
Go to therapy so the therapist can tell you that you obviously succeeded at everything

Don't you bring your dumb ass here and tell freaks like me and the other anons who will never be loved or liked that you're a failure. We're failures, look at us and realize you're a hell of a lot better. Go live your life, OP.

Graduating from college with a bachelor's took me, guess what, 10 fucking years. Because getting pointless pieces of paper that accomplish nothing in the modern world is not very motivating. It's not like running from a tiger trying to eat your ass. Getting motivated to earn a piece of paper is HARD. Don't blame yourself for sucking at it, like another anon said.
Focus on your successes, not your failures. You probably have a lot more than us.

Try something easy.

I'm not kidding. What you need is a boost to your self-esteem, and accomplishing ANYTHING, however simple, will be a start in that direction.

Clean your room. Write that letter you owe grandma. Run that errand. You'll be surprised by the rush of accomplishment that will accompany even the smallest success - and that rush is addictive, making you eager to take on another challenge.

As someone who struggles with depression, this anon is right. Small victories can help you hang on.

You have everything going for you, all you just need to keep trying.
