For what it’s worth I understand how you’re feeling, and those feelings are valid. No need to answer an internet stranger, but why is it that you feel worthless? For me I think it’s because I care too much about what other people, that I can have value unless someone else sees that value and acts on it. I’ve been trying to focus on that, and say the things to myself that I wish others would. It didn’t work at first, but I’ve noticed my self worth increasing ever so slightly the more I do it. So if I could offer some unsolicited advice, try to figure out why you feel the way you do. Without that you can’t start making meaningful changes.

From another exhausted person to another.

You already got your answer but I just wanted to say good on you. Not too many people are willing to recognize they made a mistake and try to improve. So assuming this is good faith, thanks for being a good person!

Am I a weirdo? If someone tells me to calm down it kinda wakes me up and makes me think about why I’m getting worked up. It doesn’t always calm me down if I think I’m right to be frustrated, but if I’m being unreasonable it usually will get me to take pause.

If I wanted a long life I wouldn’t be smoking…
