I want to kill myself because of my intellectual disability. I’m so depressed because of it and my life will never get better.

I’m useless and I’ll never be able to live a normal, independent life because of the way my brain works. I feel like such a burden and this isn’t a life worth living. It’s the main cause of my depression.

I’m suffering every day. I have no future and can’t live the life that I want- I’ve had to give up so many dreams because I realistically can’t achieve them because of my disabilities. I want a normal adult life. A job, a husband, kids. But I can’t have that becuase of my brain function. I’m trapped in my body with the brain of a child.

I don’t want to go into detail about what I go through on a daily basis but I need a substantial amount of support with basic tasks. I can hardly do anything on my own and as an almost 30 year old woman, it’s humiliating.

I feel so alone. I don’t have any friends because I can’t relate to anyone my age. Most women my age are married with children, have careers, are living in their own place. I will never experience any of that because of my low mental capacity.

I’m so angry and frustrated and sad. I wish this wasn’t my life. I wish I was a normal adult.
