Hopeless

I feel completely hopeless and alone. I am a failure, it's a fact. I used to say why have I been born this way, but now I understand that it is my fault. I can hear my neighbours complain about me. They think that I'm loud, annoying, and stupid. I was excited to possibly become good friends with them, but of course I blew it. Everyone complains about me. I am such another and I am done asking for help or expressing myself. My poor family,; they have to put up with me. I am useless and have given them nothing to be proud of. I would say that I let everyone down but there is not one in my life. I know that I will be kicked out of my college because I am an idiot and continue to fail. I am just wasting my parents money. If I were not me, I would judge and laugh at myself. I am pathetic. No one loves me. I know now what I must do because it will never get better. I used to look forward to the good life to come, but now I doubt the possibility. I don't deserve an education because I am not smart enough. Maybe, I used to be smart, but I've lost it all. I can't even keep a job. I make everyone uncomfortable. I bet that People feel bad for me. They look at me and laugh. I used to be able to sing very well, now I sound terrible. I would say sorry to everyone for annoying them. I cannot spend anymore days existing like this, feeling uncomfortable, hating myself, alone.

If I didn't know any better I would think that this was written by my son. He is constantly calling himself an f-up and that he is useless to everyone. The thing is that the more he feels that way the worse he gets and the worse things get for him. It is a vicious cycle that only you can break. I will tell you, though, your family does love you and are there for you. Please find help, somewhere, somehow. Life can be good if you work to make it good. It doesn't come easy and there will always be storms so you need to learn to work through them.

You are who you believe yourself to be, it's not the other way around. It's never the other way around.

It's very easy to underestimate just how drastically our minds affect the reality around us. When we believe ourselves to be a failure, we draw that failure into us, and ultimately become that failure. After we take on the role of "a failure", we then proceed to live out that role, because it is the reality we have chosen to conform to.

Of course, the opposite can be true if we reverse our roles; there's always a sun shining behind the clouds :)

Sorry if that was short, confusing, and maybe unsatisfying. I was tired but didn't want you to feel so alone. Feel free to write me if you need someone to talk to, it's the least I can offer

Sometimes you have to fall in order to get back up. What matters is that you continue to live every day one step at a time, it's okay to take a few steps back, you're human. There are people out there who love you and people you have yet to meet who will love you.

Have you tried therapy? It can be a wonderful life line in times like this! Also, there is a good book called Mindset, that you may learn from. Today’s losers can be tomorrow victors and vice versa—you can change this narrative. Be kind with your inner talk—Try some self love guided meditations on YouTube or Insight Timer.

You’ve got to stop putting yourself down. You are lost in a sea of negativity. What are three things you like about yourself??? Everyone has setbacks. My life really sucks right now too. I just keep trying to move forward. It isn’t easy. You’ve just got to try your best. If you give up, where will you be??? Just keep trying. Look at the good things about yourself. There has to be something!!!🙂

Hey, please dont give up. You have so much to offer even if you dont realise it. I can tell you are very genuine and heartfelt by how you express yourself. The world needs people like you. You dont yet realise how things can change for the better. Please take one day at a time and dont put yourself under so much pressure. You dont deserve that. Nobody does, definitely not you 💚
