What has been the lowest point of your life?


In 2013, I lived in a flower bed in a Walmart parking lot. Just before Winter, I established shelter, food and water, and a beach towel for a blanket to cover up with in a corner. The landlord was a disgusting, narcissistic, pervert that took saliva payments. It was only 3 or 4 times a week that he wanted payment and I cried over it only 2 or 3 times every night before falling asleep so it wasn't so bad. That went on for about 4 months. I'd say that was both the lowest and most pivotal moments in my life.
After retiring I felt lost. I hated my career at the end and didn't want to go back to it, but I had nothing else to do. My wife had already been growing distant at that point and this just put the emphasis on that even more. So I would get up in the morning. Make breakfast. Have some coffee. Wander around the house and clean stuff. Shower. Wait for the kids to get home. Make dinner. Fight with the wife about whatever stupid thing happened to a problem that day. Repeat.
I got to a very low and very dark place. Eventually, I began having thoughts of self harm. Fortunately I was able to get help for it and have done much better since.
are you alright to share about what change/help you received that made you feel and do better than the low moments? (up to you)

It's not something I am proud of, but it got to the point where I was voluntarily hospitalized.
hope you get better day after day. !
Being threatened by both of my parents to be kicked out when I was struggling to find a job and was getting pissed off about all of the things they were making me do being the eldest of my siblings still living at home at the time. Luckily I struck the shittiest job I could ever have worked before the job I wanted let me back in
well most younger people (even 30 years old) still stay with their parents place coz rents (in some countries) are horrendously expensive to afford. You are a survivor man!
it was when i found out my dad had a heart attack at night after being admitted to the hospital. heck, it was a very painful moment. what's even more painful is that it happened last year on my older brother's birthday. im grateful he's alive today
