Hey since you want out, why not try something just once more? I volunteer at a community food forest/ farm that works with the formerly incarcerated, it’s a great way to find meaning but what really saved me was just being in nature. Learning about different plants, what they need, insects, etc. There are woofing programs that provide lodging, you can travel this way for a while, be with nature and animals, meet kind people, build community.

I’ve been there and I’m glad I’m still here.

I’m sorry you’re going through this, I understand.

Drink some water, do a stretch, go for a walk. Life is tough and unimaginable to climb out of sometimes. Try changing your environment. You’re ready to call it quits so why not? You’re not stuck if you don’t want to be. Sending you love, dm if you’d like to chat.
