Feeling pretty worthless

Yeah I feel like ■■■■, may as well be dead

That’s an intrusive feeling, I think you should resist intrusive thoughts and find purpose in life.

I can’t even talk about it,

Like I try and be myself, I mean what do you want me to do? I can’t be someone else and I’m not that bad

Our lives are important, we all can find something good in our lives, sometimes it is not obvious and we need to think hard. I recall when I lived in my auto in the States 20 years ago, I often had depressive and suicidal thoughts, but I survived and here I am writing today. Think positive and try to find positive things in your life, we all have positive things, we just need to understand and find these things. It is good that you write here.

Are you comparing yourself to people who have lots of things easier than you? Because that’s never a fair game and not fair to yourself.

Also it’s only an online forum, don’t take what anybody sez behind the safety of a keyboard seriously. People act differently in real life

Well, I would say as long as your alive you have a chance for things to get better. But I would be careful about being around those that are abusing drugs.

I know, i dont need that ■■■■ :frowning:

I see the girlfriend as a friend really. And any time wasted with a friend isn’t a waste, I feel.

Nowadays though, some women are valued and devalued for the way they look rather than what they have done.

I’ve had some friends whom I’ve parted ways with, but I don’t think I’d ever think that I wasted time with any of them. Maybe I’m not thinking far back enough, but I honestly can’t think of any friend that was a waste of time. Then again, I haven’t had many friends.

If anything, I just see those friends as those who had different beliefs than me. But even though we had different beliefs, I still respect them I guess. I feel that I even think this way of enemies, even those who pretend to be friends or who evolve from friends.

I guess a girlfriend is different than a friend. I’ve never had a girlfriend, but I don’t really believe in the girlfriend/boyfriend social structure anymore and just see them all as friends. I’ve had female friends in the past and I wouldn’t say that I wasted time with them. We kept each other company and entertained each other.

I’m sorry to hear that your friend died of cancer. I’m also sorry to hear that your other friend is struggling with drugs. You are a good friend for helping him.

@drwho. I’m sorry that you’re feeling so down. Can you reach out to your mental health team if you need help managing?

I’m sorry you’re feeling victimized and bullied. I guess that all I can recommend is that you try to separate out those people who are genuinely trying to offer constructive advice versus those people who are just being mean and not being constructive. And ignore the latter.

I have been on the receiving end of bullying myself and I agree that it does not feel good. However, it’s worth remembering that bullying behavior reflects poorly on the bully not the victim. It’s also worth remembering that one has no control over how another person acts but one does have control over how oneself responds.

I hope you start feeling better soon. Take care.

I was that bad back when I drank and used. Had to learn honesty and being trustworthy. I really did become a new person to the point of having memories from the old me in my head that I can no longer relate to. They feel like the memories of a stranger now.

Change is possible.

I hear that, I am so detached from my younger self that it feels like another person, like i didnt have a childhood or anything, even when i was ill, it seems like that time period didnt even happen, its another reason for me to try and find meaning in this big bad world, I only really started to live a ‘life worth remembering’ when i had a med change 2011 and found God

I am glad i had a nice lazy day, time to recoup, re-energize and renew, i was running on empty, I can only do so much.
