Hi Sandra,
I'm bipolar too. Actually bipolar II. How about you?
Have you seen a doctor? You really should get on some medicine.
Feeling worthless is a lie that depression always tells you. You are never worthless but when you're depressed you might feel that way. You can't believe those feelings because they aren't facts.
I'm sorry to hear you feel worthless. Every person has worth, you just need to tap into the good parts of you. Every morning start your day with something you like about yourself. Even if it's very small. But if you are in crisis, call 1-800-273-TALK (8255) Suicide Prevention Lifeline. They're the best. You are not alone.
i can relate. sorry you feel that way. wish you the best. (((virtual hug)))
Sandra, I'm so sorry you are feeling bad. You are never ever worthless, even when you're depressed. It's a hard feeling to deal with, I have depression and anxiety with OCD. Do you have a good therapist? Are you on meds? I am and have been for many years. I am 60 years old so I can tell you something of depression coming and going. It usually goes faster with a good therapist and needed medications. Write back and let me know. This is a good group and you will always get honest and positive feedback.
You are not alone Sandra. You are worth so much! I have deep depression and everyday feels hopeless to me. But everyday right when I wake up I say to myself "Today will be a great day" You should try it out, it has worked thus far. We are here for you.
