Why am I alive?

There is a large spectrum to why this sentence is used. But there is usually the main reason :

<-> You're upset about life. You get that weird feeling around your eyebrows, the same feeling when you're about to cry. You feel you've lost everything or you can't go on. You wake up every day wondering how you're going to get through it without breaking down.

<-> A lot of people say this but do not mean it, they are simply sad for a short period.

<-> Another reason could be, a lack of dopamine, this causes low mood and sadness. It is commonly found in drug users (or addicts of any kind) and people with depression. If you feel sad all of the time you should go to the doctors or your local GP and find out why.

This is the end of this Urban Dictionary Definition, but I would like those who've come here from sadness to remember, you are worth it. You are not useless and you are NOT stupid. I've gone through a largely rough patch myself, so yes, I know how you're feeling. Trust me, it does get better, even if it's for only a minute. You will have a time where you feel better, I promise.
There's no example needed. You know how it feels and you know how bad it can be.

If major things happen in your life, mostly for the bad and you think to yourself, "Why am I alive?" please know you're loved.

Alivea

Alivea is a person that will always have your back. She struggles with not letting people bother her, but it sometimes it still happens. She has greaaat music taste usually, and likes vanilla ice cream better than any other kind. This doesn’t mean she’s plain like vanilla though. Sprinkles too, most Alivea’s love sprinkles. Math is usually her strong point, but learning things well takes some time for her. They sometimes struggle with their grammar often mistaking “your” for “you’re”. All-around great, and will remain loyal as long as you do. She only tells her best friend personal things, and hates when people assume things about her and in general. A great sister, a great friend/bestfriend/gf and anything else. You mess with somebody close to her and she will roast or drop kick you. She usually has long, soft, and light brown hair. Absolutely gorgeous but denies it for some reason. Her dark brown eyes are stunning and a glare from her could possibly kill someone. She’s extremely smart but has a TON of blond moments.

stay alive challenge

Originating from Twenty One Pilots, this trending hashtag now known as #stayalivechallengeaccepted has been widely seen as a suicide prevention movement. The TØP fandom brought it to fame by saying stay alive |-/ as a greeting. Basically you post any picture about a happy event in your life and post it in black & white as a tribute to suicidal thoughts. The happy picture contrasts the filter to show that everything's gonna be okay.
Lately, my whole feed has been the stay alive challenge. I'm glad someone's finally taking suicidal thoughts seriously.
