What do I do when I feel like I've hit rock bottom and I'm not worth it anymore?

Rock bottom is an excellent, solid foundation to start building up again. You need to surround yourself with good people and be honest with yourself.

Look back at all that you have already accomplished and remind yourself that you are a stronger/better person than you give yourself credit for.

I write in my journal - in the moment it helps me to process my feelings, I just write down whatever is in my head, my thoughts, feelings, worries and concerns, no matter how stupid or irrational they may seem. Later on when I've got it out of my system I read back on it and it provides me with something to reflect on. When I'm in a better space of mind I can see many of the issues that I thought were huge actually aren't that big. And I can start processing through my issues and feelings step by step rather than feeling overwhelmed and dealing with them all at once.

Think about those in your support network. This could be family, friends, acquaintances or anybody really who cares about you. Think about what they would say to you if the knew how you were feeling right now

A few months ago, I hit rock bottom, and was (am still am) dealing with all of this. During winter break, I often had no motivation to eat/drink/sleep/do basic daily functions, I often either woke up at 1am or slept at 1-3am, and I started to have episodes, as I was (and am still) experiencing so much emotional pain (that I would scream and thrash, and I would become violent, unfortunately, often resorting to punching myself). Some of the things that go through my head when I’m dealing with this is that “life isn’t worth living…I can’t keep doing this…there’s no point to anything…(and) it’d be great just to die here…” and I know this makes no logical sense, but it’s what I’m dealing with, and it’s difficult to deal with. So it'll take time to feel better, and it's frustrating, but you'll get there. I'd say just keep being immersed in your life, and trying to cope healthily. But this just depends on your situation and how you'd respond to it.

Remember to think of yourself positively. No one will ever be you, intricate and imperfect as we all are. The funny thing about "rock bottom" is that you can only go up. Motivate yourself, and do things that interest and please you.

As a quote to the movie Sing, "You know the best thing about hitting rock bottom? There's only one place left to go, and that's up." Remember this, it has stuck with me, and helped me through many situations.

Speak to someone! Don't allow yourself to bottle up these feelings and dwell on them. Always remember that you are beautiful inside and out. Things will get better, even if you have to walk through the rain to see the sunshine.
