Why do I feel so inferior and worthless and useless all the time?

There is a natural tendency to be particularly critical of oneself. If you are depressed, or are generally prone to all-or-nothing thinking, it that tendency can mushroom into overly-broad, pervasive, negative self-assessments. And this can snowball as it becomes habitual. But this is rarely, if ever, either accurate or helpful. To help dig out you might ask yourself this: does acting on these feelings in any way help you act the way you would like to? Could you find a way to recognize that it hurts to feel this way, to see that to some degree all of us feel inferior at times, and to be kind to yourself as a step toward relieving your suffering and growing toward your true potential?

Well, its because that's what you think you are. In my eyes, everyone was put on the Earth for a reason. You just don't know why you are here just yet. You're the only one holding you back from being the best you you can be. You are not worthless or useless. You only think that since you don't know why you're here just yet. But eventually you will find out why you're here, and you'll be happy you waited.

I believe that I feel inferior and useless much of the time for many reasons but the two main reasons are that 1) I was led to believe this by my family (namely my parents) from a very young age. Add in a few abusive relationships and my self-esteem plummeted. 2) I also feel useless and worthless when I do not see immediate results in my efforts. I then tend to feel like all of my effort is not adequate enogu and that it will not make a difference.

What are your reasons for feeling this way? No matter what your going through in your life, always remember that you have family and friends who love you and wouldn't want to see you feeling this way. You are not worthless or useless. We all are going through personal issues. I'm here for you.

Because you don't love yourself. You don't like how you are. But you are unique, you must love what you like, what you do, what do you think, what do you feel.

Feeling like a failure happens to me all the time. We achieve so less, and feel like comparing ourselves to the others who've gone/ going through less struggle and achieving more. Life is unfair. But we have to be brave and push ourselves to the extreme.

We all feel inadequate at times. Too much focus on what we ‘aren’t’ rather than what we ‘are’ can bring us down. Try to look at what you do that makes you feel proud of yourself.

Depending on what has happened in your life recently depends on why. Someone around you has probably made you feel that way without you realizing it.

Well just know these feelings are not true! Practice a different routine. Do different things. Maybe a different scenery.
