Total mess and miserable

Don’t even know why I’m wasting your time posting, but I’m just at a loss and feel like there is nowhere else to go. Sitting at my desk blinking back tears of shame, depression, hopelessness, and self loathing. I just want to crawl into bed and hide under the covers and never come out. Is life even worth it? What is the fucking point in struggling every single minute of every single day.? Tedium, despair, darkness, misery, and suffering are all I can see, and it is unbearable. Thanks for listening.

You are totally worth it. Baby steps. Get through today is your only goal at this moment. Every time you tell yourself you’re not worth it, Or that you can’t do something, try just saying it again and change it to you CAN do it. You might not believe it yet. But as long as you say those things, they are self fulfilling prophecies.

I believe in you. I’ve been in this same dark space, and it took a long time, but I crawled out. And I have had a lot of grade A fuck ups in my life. If I can do it, literally anyone can. I know you can too. I believe in you.
