Questioning My Value · 10:30am Nov 13th, 2015
I've hit record low. For the first time in a while, self-harm and suicide have actually crossed my mind. I'm constantly reminded about how slow my progress in life is and no one seems to understand me. Even my parents don't believe I have a plan for my future simply because I can't give them a straight answer for everything. So why bother? My entire life has either been spent being a sponge for everyone's frustrations or making some kind of mistake or the other. Is that kind of life truly worth it?
Trust me, I understand what you're going through. I've had several friends go through what you have. All I can tell you is NEVER think you are worthless or have less value than anyone else. Yes, life's been hard and unfair, but I promise you it'll get better. Life is full of highs and lows, you'll reach your high points some day. I promise.
No no no no no. Suicide is not the answer. I'm serious. I've been down that road before, and it's NOT fun. I don't know what's going on, but I want to help you.
So please, just think about it.
Don't talk like that. I've come to know you on this site, and I value you and your friendship immensely. You're an incredible individual who I and others have come to love. So don't for a moment doubt that you are loved and have value.
Dude, your value to me and to everyone else is important. I love talking to you, I think your awesome guy. But don't be talking like that. You are loved by me and your friends. And we want you to live.
EVERYONE has value, regardless what anyone thinks. If your parents doubt that you're going anywhere in life, that's on them. As long as you believe in yourself, things will work themselves out.
