First, I'm sorry that you are feeling this way. Don't be too hard on yourself. It sounds like you need a little help beyond what you can provide for yourself. I suggest asking your doctor for a referral to a psychiatrist. It sounds as though you may need to ask for help with understanding what you're experiencing. It could be depression, but a professional can help you learn this and can help you with psychotropic medication that may help you re-balance your chemical make-up. You may want to seek a referral for a therapist as well. That would allow you to talk through some of the feelings that you are having.

Secondly, you are good enough!! Don't make any major decisions while you are feeling this way. You may regret them when you are feeling better. Your bf has stuck with you so far, so it sounds like he sees something in you that you may not recognize in yourself.

As far as family goes, you may just perceive them as uncaring from your depressed state. With some help (described above), you may have a different perspective after some time in treatment.

Another thought is you may have experienced something called dysthymia for some time (a low grade depression that lasts a long time, but does not usually interfere with daily functioning [think of Winnie the Pooh's Eeore]), but it may be that you have sunk into a major depressive episode. This type of episode can keep you from functioning normally and a person should seek help right away (the type described above).

If you can sit down and talk to your boyfriend that would be a great start. If you feel that you have some sort of depression maybe you can see your doctor and be put on some sort of medicine. Or maybe something is off with your hormones. I have PCOS and when my hormones are going haywire I feel the same way. It's a horrible feeling to have but don't feel alone, there are many of us girls with the same problems as you. You have to think about all the positives you have in life and if you can't do that they I definitely suggest seeing a doctor. You are not crazy though. Keep your chin up and I wish you the best of luck :o)

Answer 5

Don't ever feel like your worthless!!!
Instead of focusing on whats wrong in your life, focus on whats right and what you love. Do this with you boyfriend. Its very difficult to feel better by yourself. You need someone whom cares for you.
If you do everything you want to do, be depressed, breaking up with the b/f and being by yourself, do you think that will make you feel better? what do you think that would accomplish?
We all have problems,my family doesn't get along, I'm not going anywhere with my job, I'm a social outcast (mostly cause I don't drink), I don't get a long with anyone from my girlfriends family and I live with them and so on. Oh and yes being left alone is fine but just once and awhile, you do need to breath and think to yourself but after, be with someone whom cares for you and life will be so much better. Find what works in life for you not what doesn't work.
Good luck and don't give up.

**I do it all just for my son, he is my reason to push on.

Answer 6

First question to you is are you seeking help for depression? Most of all I have to say (& without knowing anything about you) you are not worthless. If the people that don't accept you have made you feel this way, to hell with them! We all have our own qualities and attributes that make us who we are and none of us should have to feel that we HAVE to fit into the mold that society or our peers say is 'normal' or 'acceptable' Does your boyfriend support how you are feeling right now or want to help you? If he doesn't know you are feeling down for whatever reasons, tell him. If he doesn't know he can't help. Find someone close to you who can help if you aren't able to seek professional help. Good luck.

Answer 9

Your thoughts are just "Thoughts." They are neither true or false, they are just thoughts. YOU are the one who determines their relevance.

What you CHOOSE to THINK and BELIEVE about yourself is what determines how true something is for you.

If YOU choose to believe you are unaccepted and worthless, then you begin to act that in your life. However, if you choose to think and believe differently about yourself, then you will begin to act that in your life.

According to Richard Carlson in his book, "You Can Be Happy No Matter What," what you think affects how you feel. How you feel affects your general mood. Your mood affects your actions. So, if you are thinking negative thoughts (no one accepts me, I am worthless) in the moment, then you will begin to feel negative feelings (I am worthless) in the moment, which will lead to a negative mood and negative actions (they don't like me so I won't go around them). Then your negative mood leads to more negative feelings in the moment which leads to more negative thoughts in the moment. It becomes a viscous cycle.

The reverse is also true, if you think positive thoughts in the moment that will lead to positive feelings in the moment which will lead to positive moods which will lead to positive actions.

YOU can change your thoughts and beliefs...please read "You Can Be Happy No Matter What" by Richard Carlson or "You Can Heal Your Life" by Louise Hay.

You are worth it!!!!!! You deserve to be happy!!!!
