Why do I feel so unappreciated?

You may be doing a lot to help people right now, which is totally okay. But every once in a while people forget to thank others. They might be busy with stuff too, but it's easy to forget to appreciate what others do for you.

People who generally feel so unappreciated have high expectations for praise and recognition which is sometimes unrealistic.

There is two reasons i think you feel that way. I think you feel that way either because you are unappreciated or you feel that way because you expect a lot in return.

It can be caused by depression that makes you feel like your not good enough or unappreciated or it can be anxiety that holds you back from success by using fear to stop you

People have not been gratifying you the way you wish. It is likely you are doing everything right, despite not feeling appreciated.

It is because your morals, thoughts, and ideals are different to others. You are surrounded by people that are not making you smile. As soon as you do that and find people that care the way you do, you will feel more happier. When in doubt, change your environment.

Try to do things for other people, you may feel unappreciated because people have put you down for whatever you have done.

Shortness of breath or hyperventilation.Heart palpitations or a racing heart.Chest pain or discomfort.Trembling or shaking.Choking feeling.Feeling unreal or detached from your surroundings.Sweating.Nausea or upset stomach.

This could be a sign of depression. You can take an online screening to see if you are. If your score indicates you could be depressed, see a doctor or therapist for help.

I've found that people in general tend to take things for granted and only really notice when a person does something that upsets them. This is especially true with people you've known for a long time, unfortunately. They just come to expect good things from you, particularly if you are reliable in your generosity/helpfulness. We have a basic need to receive positive feedback from others, but it is easy to overlook/ignore this need in each other during the course of a day. Life is full of so many things to worry about, and appreciating others usually doesn't get placed at the top of our to-do lists. Do you remember to take the time to acknowledge what you value about other people (the little things and the big ones)? If you let people know what you appreciate about them, they are more likely to reciprocate. Is there more you could be doing for others that would elicit gratitude? Sometimes the simplest of gestures can mean so much to another person -- a smile and a wave to a stranger, a friendly chat with a store cashier, a word of encouragement to someone asking for help online. These are not guaranteed to get a thank you every time, but it increases your odds of receiving one. It is also rewarding to know you have helped brighten someone's day. even if they haven't told you how much they appreciate it.
