How can I stop thoughts of being worthless?

Think of all the people who care. Your friends, your family, even your pets. Then think of all the people who will care. Your future partner, coworker, future kids, future friends. They all care for you, and they all will care for you. If you feel worthless, just take time to reflect on yourself. Why do you feel worthless. Is there anyone making you feel this way? Am I doing anything to make myself feel this way? Try taking care of yourself, like taking a shower, taking a nap, complimenting yourself, or talking to people who are a positive influence and show that they care in your life.

Think of reasons you're not worthless. These reasons can be anything you want them to be. As long as your able to feel it inside. Reasons one may not be worthless is also best found inside of you. So ask yourself, why do I think I'm worthless? Am I really worthless? What have I ever done wrong? What have I done right? When you ask yourself the right questions, the answers will start to become more clear to you. As they become more clear, you'll begin to feel better. Remember, everyone has a reason to be here. If you didn't, you wouldn't be here today asking/reading this response to that question.

Personally, something that really helps me with my self worth is taking a little time out of my day to appreciate something that I’ve done. I’m extremely socially anxious, so for me that can be something as little as talking on the phone with a friend. At first it might be hard, because you feel vain or selfish for complimenting yourself, but eventually it will make you more comfortable and confident in your own skin. Loving yourself is really important, because it makes conquering outside challenges easier. It makes making friends easier, and it’s jut something that’s really worth investing the time into.

It takes time. Practice reflection more, being in connect with your mind and your body -- all it's imperfections and lumps and bumps and being okay with that. Our minds are so precious and our bodies too. We can only control what is in our grasp (ie. what we can control). So no need to worry or bring in other things that are out of this control. You are so worth more than what your mind may think in an instance. It will take some time to find this connection and there will always be that little imposter back there or devil on the shoulder saying otherwise. Just keep working on it and surrounding yourself with people who uplift you and who are genuine in character. Sending love!
