Do something useful to pick yourself up. I'm sure there are disabled or elderly people that could use your help. God Bless.

You don't say why you hate yourself or consider yourself worthless but if you stop focusing on yourself and help others, you will find that you won't hate yourself or feel worthless as you are doing something that is helping others. There is great joy and satisfaction in doing that although it can be hard at first to start doing it. Try to do it in small steps.

For example, if you can, at the supermarket, take a moment to ask an elderly person if they need help carrying groceries to their car. Compliment someone that you think is dressed nice. Surprise a coworker that you think is working hard with a small dessert you've bought from a local bakery.

Once you start doing some small things like this and see the appreciation of those for whom you've done them for, you will see the good person that is really within you and the value you can contribute to those around you.

Anger and hate are two worthless emotions to dwell upon as they do nothing but eat away at you and give nothing back.

First of all, let me say, that feeling "worthless" is OK. It's absolutely OK to feel what you feel. The good news is, the time will come when you don't feel this way. As one of the above posters suggested, you shared how you feel with us. That means the moment is already passing. You're not sitting around stewing in it. You're looking for a little external reassurance. Not a thing wrong with that. We all need it, sometimes. I would also suggest talking to friends and family members. You'd be surprised how many of them have had the same feelings. Also, I suggest you partake in an activity you're really good at. Success, even in a minute amount, can be very uplifting. If you are spiritual or religious, try some meditation or prayer. Sometimes just letting go of the energy through meditation pulls me from feeling low. I hope this helps. Remember you are here for a reason, and no matter who you are, and what you've done. You are important to this world.

I would venture a guess...

It may be because to feel better others have put you down. Or have told you that you're not living up to your full potential. I really liked that one, especially because it came from people who had obviously not reached theirs, either.

So you get stepped on repeatedly by insecure *******, and now you think you have no value in life and cannot accomplish anything. So you stop trying, and soon you just stagnate and become another number or random thought floating in the universe.

Don't believe all that crap! Start trying new things! Do something different! Even if it's wrong, or you make mistakes, you won't be doing NOTHING, and just might find something that gives you new meaning. You WILL make mistakes, by the way- a lot of them! Scary? Sure, but courage is not the absence of fear, it is the ability to continue in the face of fear.

But if you really hate yourself and feel worthless, how much lower could you possibly go? ANYTHING has got to be better than where you're at right now, even if it's not perfect. Continue to seek new things and they become a part of the whole you.

I lived with these feelings most of my life. I can certainly relate to how you feel.

You're feeling worthless cuz you're identified with the thoughts that you're worthless. The good news is these thoughts aren't you. Maybe you can sense the goodness you are when you do something nice for someone or someone appreciates you or when you're in nature.

I'm sure you may have felt love inside for no reason at all. If you were worthless you wouldn't feel this.......n you wouldn't be here. You're a part of existence. You're needed. You have gifts to give n we all benefit from your giving.

Just start doing little things for yourself n start spreading that kindness to everyone and thing that comes in your path. You're much more than you ever could have dreamed you are. You just have to step back from yourself a little and realize it. You may not realize it but this pain is a great opportunity to grow as a person n to understand that we all hurt. From this you will learn compassion---for yourself and for others.

If a friend came to you and said how much they hate themselves and how worthless they feel you would react in a way that is natural and try to help. Treat yourself the same way.

Also, if you feel the inclination to try volunteering for something. you'll quickly see that when you help others you have much to offer and that you are needed-------you're not worthless.

I don't know the exact reason as I don't know you and you have not told us anything about you. BUT I can say you shouldn't feel worthless or hate yourself. You do sound depressed and if this is the case get together with someone and go out. Shopping, clubbing, or just for a nice meal. Call someone and talk with them. You sound very nice and as such I am sure your beautiful. Hope I have helped you even if only a little.

Everyone who has been in this world has a purpose to be in this world. Nobody is worthless in the world including yourself ,and you remember that. search a purpose of humanity for which you can do something worthwhile .There is so much pain around the world do something to alleviate atleast one and you will find yourself enjoying the work and you will have no time left to consider your worth because the people you are involved with will appreciate you so much that you will not have any time left for self recrimation.So go ahead and do something worthwhile at all times.

Judgement of self is a most painful feeling. It does, however, push you to learn self love, if only to make the pain stop. This may take some time, but in the end you'll be balanced enough to help another move through self judgement with humility and experience.
I know you are hurting,and I hurt for you.
I have gone through this myself and it lasted many years. Pain can be horrible, but also, a great catalyst for change if you let it serve you.
You are not alone, trust me. God bless.

...this may be a painful place (I know it well) but the good news is that because you know about your self-hatred and low worth, you can take steps to move beyond these crippling feelings. Life is beautiful in many ways, and your job is to celebrate it as best as you can. Some days it may involve not wanting to get out of bed to face the world, and other days -- who knows?! You may just surprise yourself. Good luck, hon. Many of us have been there...it's better than living in deeeeep denial, that every thing's "FINE."

don't hate yourself. and you're not worthless. we aren't born into the world to devalue ourselves. believe me, we're all together in this. none of us are perfect. and all of us feel the same way sometimes. but we're all learners. no matter how weak we are...we won't be so all our lives...because your life is for learning. and in time you'll learn that there's so much in life that YOU deserve. you might not know but there are people around you who love you...there are ppl who idolize you and want to be like you...

remember...you have a purpose...and you're amazing...keep smiling girl...
