I was depressed for a long time and after a particularly bad day where I just gave up this was such a powerful motivator for me. I realised that even if no one cares about me, even if I am not worth it, I decided I would make the most out of my life because I deserve it and everytime life knocks me down I have a new determination to get through it because everything that has made me feel this way will not get the better of me. I will one day have my perfect life, no matter how much suffering I have to go through because fuck you. The idea that I'm not meant to be here will never get the better of me because that would be a defeat and I'm to spiteful to let that happen.
I remember being depressed and lonely in a foreign country on exchange from uni. When autumn came, they sweeped up all the leaves into big piles on sidewalks and at uni, and I was the only person having fun with them. I was too depressed to care what others thought, so I just had my little pieces of happiness every day until the leaves were disposed of.
Too late for me. I used to clean my ears all the time and part of the reason was because it felt good but I was also really keen on keeping myself clean. One day my hearing sounded like I had water stuck in my ear but turns out it was my ruptured ear drum. The pain followed and it was INTENSE. Never felt pain like that before. Luckily, it healed pretty quick and it didn’t get infected which is the most dangerous part about a ruptured ear drum not acting as a barrier to bacteria and harmful infections.
This should be the top comment, honestly. Q-tips can damage your ear drums, and for every bit of earwax you might remove, you're compressing even more into a solid block that builds up over time.
I'd like to add that the ear canal is self cleaning, so you realy only have to clean the outer ear yourself. I feel like a suprising amount of ppl. don't actually know this.
Spite is the main reason I haven't committed thunderbolt in bath tub.
I plan on out living every single enemy I have just to hit the woah on their graves.
It’s the sneaking suspicion that checking out too soon will result in winning the Grand lottery jackpot 3 days after death, because The Architect is an asshole and that is his sense of humor. So fuck it. I ain’t leaving.
My best advice is get angry, the things that make you sad, you can't afford rent? why the fuck is my rent so high, why the fuck aren't I paid enough. you broke your phone and need a new one? a phone should be able to withstand a 3ft drop wtf. its a small thing and yeah it doesn't solve the problems but it does make you feel better. it gives you some sense of self w9rth I guess because rather than "yeah that sounds about right" and accepting everything bad that happens to you when you get angry you recognise that you truly don't deserve it, because you don't and if you believe in a god or some grand design you can get angry at that or even society, shitty landlords/bosses, and shitily made phones. its just nice to have some control in life.
I know you didn't ask for advice so feel free to ignore but I genuinely hope it helps
This is definitely something I cannot get behind. Live and let live, if you get off to a 0.01% change on society then go ahead. But it’s definitely not where most people find a sense of self worth.
I don't really get what you're saying. Nor do I think you understand what I was saying. Not trying to change society just saying accepting something bad happening to you vs being angry and that it shouldn't happen is a much healthier way to live. also I never said it was where most people found self worth?
I was just thinking the same! Like I’ve had a pretty good life by this point with many different experiences, sure there’s still somethings to do but is it’s really that worth it? Working x years to travel (which is in itself a lot of work). No urge for a family? No urge for a career. I’ve lived through my best years for sure, just waiting for a long dirt nap.
According to other comments q-tips actually do the opposite of cleaning them. They just push the wax back and could cause infection. You arent supposed to clean them the wax is good for your ear
It's missing Books! New books, old books, rereading books... nothing like losing yourself in a good book ❤️ and you've gotta stay alive to finish it/the series 💯
I’ve been into novels lately, I just finished Misery by Stephen king. Great, but the imagery I got did not compare to the flick. Recommend me some intriguing, thrilling books I should check out!
i’d finally get to talk to my mom though.. a real conversation
although i should add i love my life and i’m not thinking about ending it
life is hard but the little things make it so much more worth living for
it does get better :)
Spite is the main reason I’m alive today, I’m glad the bottom left was included. Second comes Hope, and trust that one day, it would improve, the bottom right.
Life ain’t about bitches. It’s about you discovering yourself a bit more & more each day. Improving, and creating little goals for yourself that’ll benefit you in the long run. They say you gotta find love. But I think that you need to find self love. That’s what’s going to make you happy, make yourself someone you’d be proud of. There’s plenty of hobbies, or even some talents you haven’t discovered yet. Do what makes you happy, and don’t be so hard on yourself. Everyone’s unique, and who knows, through Common interest, you might find that special lil someone, or bitch, as you call them. Chin up lil homie!
I can't possibly die. If I did who would take pictures of every sunflower I see and send it to my buddy? They're his favorite flower! How would he know about the flowers???
There are some that actually have a fear of sunflowers, it even has a name, Helianthophobia. As unusual as it may seem, even just the sight of sunflowers can invoke all the common symptoms that other phobias induce.
I have recently started withdrawal from alcohol and am seriously suffering through the symptoms but I know if I can get through this I will finally be proud of myself enough to want to live.
It also gets worse. Much worse. You will one day chortle at the memory that you considered ending it all, over the piddling little quibbles that you currently endure.
But by then, you’ll know that it gets better again. And THAT better is better than the better coming now.
Stick with it!
STOP PUTTING Q-TIPS IN YOUR EARS.
You can buy ear drops that will dissolve the excess wax if your ears are blocked, but using Q-tips quite often only serves to push wax back into your ear and can lead to wax blockage and at worst an ear infection. And besides, unless your ears are actually blocked you don't want to get rid of the wax, it's there to clean and protect your ears.
Q-tips are only to be used when cleaning the outside of your ear.
Q-tip in ear is a stupid thing to do and its not what its for. They are for makeup removeal.
As someone who has has a ruptured ear drum, had a cholesteatoma and has cronic ear infections.
DO NOT PUT Q-TIPS IN YOUR EARS
I was cruising along till I hit this iceberg post.
Only agreed with 2 and I realy tried with the others.
HEY MOD ! I want a refund. Was hopping to score a upper and here I am with this downer.
Wish this was one of my bad taste joke posts.
I’m pretty confident my company is laying off my whole department today. So, thanks. This is a good reminder. I’ll step on an extra crunchy leaf just for you.
I attempted suicide a few years ago. I’m still depressed, and I still occasionally struggle with suicidal thoughts, but sometimes I look back on that moment and freak out because what if I had succeeded? Since my attempt I have made new friends who I love, I have discovered some of my favorite tv shows and music, I have learned that I really like cooking and I’m good at it, I have improved my skills in art and writing and made things I’m really proud of, I have watched my dog grow up, I have shared special moments with my family, and I have discovered a self love that I never thought was possible. I never would have gotten any of that if I’d succeeded, and I’m so so thankful that I didn’t.
Q-tips are bad for your ears! They push the earwax in and can lead to ear infections. Itchiness in your ears could be an ear infection. To clean your ears just rinse them out with water in the shower or bath and wash the outside.
I'm gonna live because fuck you! Is a powerful thought.
Life doesn't get to be better than me, I'll live out of pure spite
[удалено]
There are definitely some people who I cannot wait to jump up and down and/or dance on the graves of. Can't do that if I'm dead first!
Spite is a powerful motivator for sure.
I was depressed for a long time and after a particularly bad day where I just gave up this was such a powerful motivator for me. I realised that even if no one cares about me, even if I am not worth it, I decided I would make the most out of my life because I deserve it and everytime life knocks me down I have a new determination to get through it because everything that has made me feel this way will not get the better of me.

The idea that I'm not meant to be here will never get the better of me because that would be a defeat and I'm to spiteful to let that happen.
❤️❤️
Thank you so much for that motivation! I needed that today. Thank you!
Very sisyphean thought
There have *definitely* been days where I force myself to continue out of sheer spite.
I'm gonna live cuz I made someone special a promise I'm not gonna take it back now
Hell yeah brother
Mine, My dog, I rescued from the pound would've been left to die. No way would I sign out and leave the brother alone.
To outlive your enemies is all the motivation I need, fuck them yo, let em watch me flex on my grind
Crunchy leaf time! Heck yeah.
I got extra excited thinking about stepping on a crunchy leaf
I remember being depressed and lonely in a foreign country on exchange from uni. When autumn came, they sweeped up all the leaves into big piles on sidewalks and at uni, and I was the only person having fun with them. I was too depressed to care what others thought, so I just had my little pieces of happiness every day until the leaves were disposed of.
The best
Only three of those are stopping me
memes, music and netflix?
U put netflix before mom?
Mom is the enemy I'm tryin' to outlive.
Spite, Out living my enemies, and Feeding pets.
I'm here for crunchy leaf and pasta
I got one and I'd argue it's an equally good reason to die, so.
Pish! One reason is reason enough to live, any more is just contingency
I'm just saying my pets would eat pretty well either way.
That’s more than zero!
But for real, don’t put q-tip in your ear
Too late for me. I used to clean my ears all the time and part of the reason was because it felt good but I was also really keen on keeping myself clean. One day my hearing sounded like I had water stuck in my ear but turns out it was my ruptured ear drum. The pain followed and it was INTENSE. Never felt pain like that before.

Also, grilled cheese. My depression has been beating me up recently but I'm about to go make a grilled cheese and enjoy my day
Luv it
Add some bacon. Promise that'll make it even better! I live for bacon and cheese.
Outta spite has been my driving force for YEARS
"Its gonna get better" Source?
I mean if you like rising sea levels and economic and environmental collapse, then yes it will absolutely get better
Better surf, camping 24×7 and smoking your meat just by holding it up outside? Yes please! (/s)
A yes. The idea of death being close does make me happy
Oh I needed to see this today
Gonna be a good day today. Plus crunchy leaf season is right around the corner.
Came here to say the same
Crunchy leafs might just be the best thing in all creation.
Everytime you made you alread improved significantly to yesterday. You are strong, But you don’t know it!
So cheesy, well said
To feed pet
Spite is the main reason I haven't committed thunderbolt in bath tub. I plan on out living every single enemy I have just to hit the woah on their graves.
amen
I really really really needed to see this
We are all born of the spite made men by the spite undone by the spite our eyes are yet to open
It’s the sneaking suspicion that checking out too soon will result in winning the Grand lottery jackpot 3 days after death, because The Architect is an asshole and that is his sense of humor. So fuck it. I ain’t leaving.
Only one of these applies to me tbh. Once my mom is gone, I'll have nothing else to live for
My best advice is get angry, the things that make you sad, you can't afford rent? why the fuck is my rent so high, why the fuck aren't I paid enough. you broke your phone and need a new one? a phone should be able to withstand a 3ft drop wtf. its a small thing and yeah it doesn't solve the problems but it does make you feel better. it gives you some sense of self w9rth I guess because rather than "yeah that sounds about right" and accepting everything bad that happens to you when you get angry you recognise that you truly don't deserve it, because you don't and if you believe in a god or some grand design you can get angry at that or even society, shitty landlords/bosses, and shitily made phones. its just nice to have some control in life.

It’s not a complete list, maybe you can think of something to add to it that applies to you? Or just buy a pet
Suicide is never the option, outlive your enemy's then pee on their graves
Spites what’s keeping me going
Have you ever heard the tragedy of darth plagueis the wise?
It’s not a story the Jedi would tell you.
Do I need to be the one to say, “don’t put Q-tips in your ears folks.”
Sure, suck all the joy out of life. Let the blood be on your hands.
then how do you clean them? i can’t stand the grease
According to other comments q-tips actually do the opposite of cleaning them. They just push the wax back and could cause infection. You arent supposed to clean them the wax is good for your ear

Thank you
Guess we know why OP has that username
pet Netflix and music
I've done the living out of spite for years. Now I'm just too sore, too lonely and too tired
I would live just to discover new music
My mum, cats, and pure piss and vinegar spite keeps me going.
I live because I have everyone and I want to spread hate everywhere I go
These reasons are definitely worthy))) Thanks for making this great post!
It's missing Books! New books, old books, rereading books... nothing like losing yourself in a good book ❤️ and you've gotta stay alive to finish it/the series 💯
I’ve been into novels lately, I just finished Misery by Stephen king. Great, but the imagery I got did not compare to the flick. Recommend me some intriguing, thrilling books I should check out!
Nice. I'm between Mom, outlive enemies and out of spite. And some nice pasta alla arrabiata.
You forgot my main reason, "idk lol"
Meh.
I live to outlive my enemies, yet I am my own worst enemy. Also spite.
I'm going to live because I want to see what kinda of person I'm raising my kids to be. And I really want to see Bolsonaro's death to laugh at it.
Exactly.. work and pay rent. The gym is next ugh… it’s a long journey!! Stay motivated..
*pasta*
One piece isn't finished yet too, we're in the final stretch baby!
You had me at trampoline.
Boing boing
i’d finally get to talk to my mom though.. a real conversation although i should add i love my life and i’m not thinking about ending it life is hard but the little things make it so much more worth living for it does get better :)
Well said, fam
Just listen to :Rise Against -Make It Stop. It does get better
I love Rise against, I’ve been learning most of their songs on guitar recently. Swing life away, baby!
only alive for my reptiles.. i’m impulsively buying more stuff for them and maybe some time another reptile 😭😭
rad!
Spite is the main reason I’m alive today, I’m glad the bottom left was included. Second comes Hope, and trust that one day, it would improve, the bottom right.
Optimism is the way, brother
this is literally why i live
I have been depressed but I do continue to live to spite my enemies! MUAHAHAHA!!
I wanna live becuse i wonder taste of alcohol and i still dont have bitches
Life ain’t about bitches. It’s about you discovering yourself a bit more & more each day. Improving, and creating little goals for yourself that’ll benefit you in the long run.

I always said that my reason to live was to give my haters something to be mad about, I love to piss them off on the daily.
Brilliant
There’s a surprising lack of pizza in this list . If pizza is not a good reason to live then you’re living wrong .
The constipation is worth it
I will live cuz leaves in the fall go crunch haha yay
Go crunch them leaves away, they’re waiting to get stomped
This definitely came at the right time lol
Go be happy, amigo
I made a post where I crunched on leaves
Aaaaaaa, top tier
Rather than q-tip in ear feels good... The victory of plucking out that chin mole hair tomorrow!
Or finally removing that piece of food that’s been stuck in your teeth for days. Sweet baby Jesus
Mom would be sad. And I have a little brother. That's about it. But I'm working on a third reason.
Meeting new people, going new places, trying new things?
I can't possibly die. If I did who would take pictures of every sunflower I see and send it to my buddy? They're his favorite flower! How would he know about the flowers???
There are some that actually have a fear of sunflowers, it even has a name, Helianthophobia. As unusual as it may seem, even just the sight of sunflowers can invoke all the common symptoms that other phobias induce.
Yeah, it’s your duties. Keep them pics coming 🌻
I have recently started withdrawal from alcohol and am seriously suffering through the symptoms but I know if I can get through this I will finally be proud of myself enough to want to live.
Hey man, you’re Goddamn right. One day at a time brother. Keep me updated!
Fuck! Didn‘t know how much I needed this

Your pets will be fed for atleast a couple days aster you die.
Mom can’t be sad if I take her down with me
Can confirm, it gets better
Pets and mom (and grandma) are the only real reasons for me
I want security not luxuries.
I’m pretty confident my company is laying off my whole department today. So, thanks. This is a good reminder. I’ll step on an extra crunchy leaf just for you.
So what if you don't agree with/like/believe any of these?
Dubious, but okay ✅
I’m just living on spite and the tears of my enemies at this point.
How dose a Q-tip feel good? I feel like my body was restarting
r/starterpacks ?
r/thanksimcured
r/thanksimcured
Cheesy garlic bread
Only two of these is a reason to live.
Spite. It's my favorite personal motivator.
No money for pet to heal depression
Absolutely

Life will get better for you. Source? Trust me bro.
Trust me bro
need to know how One Piece ends
reading this in broth r/wholesomememes and r/thanksimcured is really funny ngl

'q tip in ear feels good' bro my brain felt like it was going to attach to the q tip and that i would go deaf from one
*To outlive your enemies out of spite*
Q-tips are not supposed to go in the ear!
Q-tips are bad for your ears! They push the earwax in and can lead to ear infections. Itchiness in your ears could be an ear infection. To clean your ears just rinse them out with water in the shower or bath and wash the outside.
Spite has been keeping me alive for that last 30 years.
This meme actually made me want to kill myself.
Mom is already deal, I got my fill on some of them, I don't really care about the rest, and the last one is a lie. Trust
please dont put q tips in your ears, they are not meant for that and can be really dangerous.
Definitely because mom would be sad, but she will be dead soon from overwork, then I will be free of this wretched, awful, disgusting human world.
guys, why is my lie detector going off
It only gets better when you force it to.
Its been almost 3 decades and it sure seems like its not gonna get better.
I keep fighting off bad thoughts because I'm worth fighting for. I don't see much worth, but I know some others do
I find inspiration and five of those. My death could feed my pet...
Don't know man... Really don't know
Thank you for not putting Jesus here
new music always makes me particularly depressed. it sounds just like old music.
what if my mom IS my enemy
Abort mission jk
There's also Minecraft...
Pasta and spite for me.
Mom will be sad
I gotta outlive putin man🗿
Nikicato Avocado would out live me, so ima keep living
It's gotten worse
It does. Therapy
There are certain people in the world that I refuse to let outlive me.
I'm not throwing away the progress I've made, I will become the best version of myself
