Perfect therapy for people who need help. I would like to say, I never can imagine it could be possible to heal people like that

Absolutely not, never. If there is one thing in this world that means everything, it is you. The one person who will always be there for you, is you. The person who will always love you and respect you and support you, is you. Don't give up on that person, and don't let that person give up on you. Take the necessary steps to get back to a healthy relationship with yourself, because in the end if we are happy with ourselves we can live happily for a lifetime.

Never ever give up on yourself! Everyone, myself included, has had times where they feel especially low. For me the thing that helps feeling like this the most, is reminding myself I have value, or getting out into my community and helping people who have things worse than I do. It doesn't always help remove the feeling entirely but little by little progress is made. Every life has value and every person has worth. Even when you can't see it. Sometimes for me just knowing that helps me get through the negative headspace and back to feeling like I don't want to give up on me.

Nope, you shouldn't. All of us have our own flaws but that does not mean that you can do nothing about it. You can always strive to be a better person, nurture that beautiful heart that you innately have.

No... Don't give up on yourself,because truthfully, what good will it do you? It'll just put you in a deeper and darker mindset than what you're possibly already in... Giving up on yourself will really not so anything to help you or those around you, It's not the best way to go at all...

NEVER! I know that seems like an easy solution but don't do it because no one else can take your place giving up on yourself is quitting and letting the bullies win and that's exactly what they want for you do give up and the second you give them the power they think they can do whatever they want don't let them win stand up

Never. Never. Never ever give up on yourself! Sure, you make mistakes, but that's what life is all about. We learn from all of our mistakes so we can live better lives and help those who have the same struggles as you have. Everything happens for a reason. YOU are here for a reason. You have a destiny. Go get it!

No. Never. When we give up on ourselves, we give up on the chance to see all we can be. As long as you are still here, you still have the potential to be great. You still have the opportunity to move forward. If you walk out before the end of the movie, you miss the best part.

The only person you have a real influence is you, just you. You can try to change the environment, people around you, different situations you're in, but it's never as much as you can change yourself. Think about this. Do you really want to resign from the only thing you can control to a such high extent?

No. Never ever, give up on yourself. You are worth everything, your such an amazing person and you are too precious to give up on yourself.

Never. There's so much out there that it's worth fighting for. Even fighting itself can become worth fighting for if you learn to love the struggle. You might not see the end of it now because of the darkness around you but chances are that if you don't give up and you keep moving forward, this dark tunnel you're in will soon lay behind you and you'll be out in the light receiving the reward for all your past efforts. You've already experienced pain. Don't you ever give up before you collect your reward for it!

No. You shouldn't give up on yourself. If your body is staying alive to keep you living, you have a responsibility to your body to give yourself a chance.

No. You should never, ever give up on yourself. Despite struggles you may face, whether that be illness, stress, school, or anything else that is challenging to /you/, always keep trying. There will always be someone that cares about you, and that wants to support you, and who wants to see you flourish into the beautiful human that you are and will become.

You shouldn't ever give up on yourself. I don't know you, and I don't know what you've been through but I know that a human life should never be given up on by anyone.

Would giving up on yourself ever help you gain what you lost hope in? Or help in fulfilling your desires? Nope. So bluntly, no

No, not at all. Ever. As a life on this earth, you are made to be strong, and you are made to survive everything you must go through to get to your happy ending. Never give up.
