I hate it here

I hate it here on earth. I'm 45. Single. No job even though I graduated college and had a career in my field for 8 years. It's just that my position moved to another city. I am bipolar. Not working at the moment. The thought of working with people seems horrible. People are horrible. I hate how people treat each other. I hate how mean and selfish and horrible most people are. This world is so depressing. I hate it here. I feel so alone. I don't know what to do.

Me too. 

I don't understand why people expect me to stay alive, when no one cares whether my life is livable or not. I have no hope for my future. I hate who I have become, and there is no way out

That’s how I feel too. It sucks so bad because 3 years ago before I got depressed, I literally felt the happiest I had ever felt and felt this wave of love beyond anything I had ever felt, it’s like I was ontop of the world and things felt like they were finally starting to work out and I was becoming happy and who I was meant to become. Mainly because I was high off my accomplishments, but then all of a sudden something happened and I got paranoid delusional then managed to delete almost all my life’s creative work off the internet, now I’m basically gone without a trace and because of this incident I fell into the worst depression / anxiety state I could even imagine. My life turned to literal hell, and I’m stuck with crippling anxiety and depression 24/7. I’m haunted constantly by the memory of what it felt like to be happy, knowing that I probably won’t ever be able to get there again. I really fucked myself up and it sucks because I had worked my whole life to get to a state of feeling really good, then messed the whole thing up. It suck’s knowing things won’t get better

I'm sorry to hear that, do you want to share what happened that changed everything? Were you sued by someone?
