I'm struggling with feeling worthless, almost to the point of feeling suicidal.

I honestly don't know if this is PTSD, depression or both, but hugs appreciated

At the risk of speaking for everyone

You're certainly not worthless to anyone around here.
And I know a person's feelings obey a not-always-logical logic
of their own, but I wish you could feel the way we do about Dorothy.
You bring a lot of good feeling to this place; I hope tomorrow you'll feel worthwhile too.
~but anyway... HUGS! Veronica

Hello My Name Is -- Mathew West

Patricia Marie Allen's picture

Dorothy,

It's cabin fever. This stupid Covid thing has us all a little balmy.

Memorize this song. Sing it when ever you are alone. It's your confession that you're not worthless

Matthew West Lyrics

Play "Hello, My Name Is"

"Hello, My Name Is"

Hello, my name is Regret.
I'm pretty sure we have met.
Every single day of your life
I'm the whisper inside
That won't let you forget.

Hello, my name is Defeat.
I know you recognize me.
Just when you think you can win
I drag you right back down again
'Til you've lost all belief.

Oh, these are the voices. Oh, these are the lies.
And I have believed them for the very last time.

Hello, my name is Child of the one true King.
I've been saved, I've been changed, I have been set free.
"Amazing Grace" is the song I sing.
Hello, my name is Child of the one true King.

I am no longer defined
By all the wreckage behind.
The one who makes all things new
Has proven it's true.
Just take a look at my life.

Hello, my name is Child of the one true King.
I've been saved, I've been changed, I have been set free.
"Amazing Grace" is the song I sing.
Hello, my name is Child of the one true King.

What love the Father has lavished upon us that we should be called His children?
I am a child of the one true King.

What love the Father has lavished upon us that we should be called His children?

Hello, my name is Child of the one true King.
I've been saved, I've been changed, I have been set free.
"Amazing Grace" is the song I sing.
Hello, my name is Child of the one true King.

I am a child of the one true King.

Hugs
Patricia

Covid Blue

Going down the normal checklist we see how covid has made depression a common occurrence.

Are you eating right? With covid we're eating what we have in our pantry.

Are you getting enough sleep? Covid has destroyed our daily routines. Good sleep is all about routines.

Are you getting enough exercise? Covid has eliminated many forms of exercise and restricted others.

Are you misusing alcohol or drugs? Experts are saying we're in the perfect storm for substance abuse.

You're one of the most compassionate people on BC. You're extremely important.

I've got the tee shirt and all that. Excellent observations!

For me, you are one of the bright lights on this site. I love reading your comments and your posts.

I hope you feel more loved and worthwhile soon. You are loved and worthwhile to us.

Here's three hugs ...

Here's three hugs: one for now and two for later. Use carefully, and don't OD... they is powerful medicine!

Sara


Between the wrinkles, the orthopedic shoes, and nine decades of gravity, it is really hard to be alluring. My icon, you ask? It is the last picture I allowed to escape the camera ... back before most BC authors were born.

Hugs

Lots and lots of great big hugs to you. I've been there, and all I can say is hold on, it will get better. Depression is cyclical, and you will pull out of this if you just hold on. If you ever need someone to talk with, you can reach me on Discord, I'm Halvil #8404. I'm there almost all the time, unless I'm sleeping or out of the house - which in these days of covid, is very rare as I'm at high risk due to health issues, age and physical gender. Hang in there hun, you are worthwhile and much cared for. If discord isn't for you leave me a message here, I get those pretty fast.

HUGS, Dot!

We can ALL use one right now!

More HUGS!
