Hi,
I understand, what you’re describing reflects the impact of prolonged grief, repeated identity attacks, and sustained emotional overload, not a personal failure. Losing your father, being subjected to online hate and false accusations, and then feeling directionless for years would deeply unsettle anyone’s sense of self.
Feeling suicidal “easily” is a signal of exhaustion and overwhelm, not weakness or lack of worth.
Depression can significantly impair learning, confidence, and motivation. The time you feel was “wasted” was, in reality, time spent surviving.
Noticing now that coding isn’t as difficult as you once believed suggests that your ability was never the issue, the emotional burden was.
Constant comparison, particularly through social media, intensifies shame and distorts perspective; timelines are never equal when life circumstances are not equal.
At this stage, you don’t need to have everything figured out. What’s needed is stabilization, support, and one realistic next step—not all the answers at once. Purpose often emerges after safety, structure, and small, consistent wins are re-established.
You are overwhelmed and under-supported. With appropriate help and a step-by-step approach, catching up is possible. Reaching out in this way is already a meaningful and courageous first step.
