Feeling like a loser

43, out of work, no children, no degree, no home and living with family. I feel like life is already over💔

@WorthlessBeing43 I want you to know that life is never truly over, no matter how hard things might seem right now. Sometimes, we face periods where it feels like everything is stacked against us but even the darkest chapters can lead to moments of growth and new opportunities.

Besides, there’s no timeline that says you need to have everything figured out by a certain age. Life has a way of surprising us when we least expect it. 

So, be kind to yourself, take small steps and trust that this is not the end, just a pause before a new beginning. You got this!

Hey, sorry that you feel like this, I can understand how challenges can be overwhelming at times and how things may not go as we planned. The good news is that life is not over because you are alive and that's something to be grateful for even if its not going as planned, you still have a purpose in this world and in time your purpose will prevail. I'm cheering for you and happy to be in community with you. You are appreciated.

It sounds like things are very hard for you at the moment and I'm so sorry that things aren't where you want them to be. It can be easy to compare our life circumstances with where we think we 'should' be for our age in the eyes of the world, but know that your life matters and YOU matter just because you're you and you're a human. You're important, no matter what your life circumstances look like. No matter what you've achieved or haven't achieved. This society will try to tell us our worth is in our achievements or tied up with 'success' or meeting certain milestones, but why? I don't believe that's true. Imagine if a friend of yours, or someone you see as a lovely person, was going through your situation right now. Imagine what you'd tell them - that they have worth, that they are enough in and of themselves. Just like a flower that doesn't do or achieve anything is beautiful just because it exists, you have an inherent worth. But of course it can still be heartbreaking when we're not where we want to be - whatever you're feeling in response to what your circumstances is valid and to be honoured. Those hurting parts of you are worthy of compassion and love, and maybe they're also a sign that within yourself you feel the call to more with your life. Remember that the 'more' doesn't have to look like what others tell you it should. In fact, pursuing that might just keep us stuck and dissatisfied. What do YOU want to do next? It's never too late to find a new direction, even if it doesn't look quite how you'd once imagined. Tend to the grief of what you haven't got in life so far and what you've lost, but hold it alongside the call within you to more. It might take time to find your way, but find the baby steps you can take towards that 'more' and be kind to yourself you worthy human. My heart goes out to you and I'm rooting for you 🤗

@WorthlessBeing43 i am sorry that you feel so worthless, but none of the things you have listed give through worth. Your life has true worth and you cannot go back and change what you have mentioned but you can go forward and with small steps start achieving things. You can start now, but your worth is determined by your heart, your integrity and your desire to keep going and keep trying and never forget that!

It probably doesn’t help but you’re not alone. I’ll have a bachelors degree soon in my late 30s, but it was a million times easier for me to get my wisdom teeth extracted than it is to talk to people. Hopefully you find something positive you can use in something someone else said.

@WorthlessBeing43 You are important and thank you for being here with us. I understand that you are feeling worthless, that is completely valid. Everyone is on earth for their own reasons, and your reasons are different that someone else's. I'm sorry that your life feels so lonesome right now, I just also hope you know you are never alone.

Life teaches us lessons. It is the greatest teacher one can have. It illuminates the suffering and opens the opportunity to self-reflect and find a healthy balance. 

Sometimes we live on autopilot for too long. Because we are human beings, we are bound to be confronted with that. The way out is not to be found in yoyr environment, it's about changing your perspective.

This is your chance to re-evaluate, renew, and restart. Take your time to heal, but do not give up on your dreams. Make it a reality! Your life just began. ❤️
