Understanding the Struggle of Feelings of Worthlessness

Many people have documented their experiences with feeling completely overwhelmed by life after a failed suicide attempt, sharing stories of eventual recovery and growth. However, for some like myself, the struggle is every day and it's okay to acknowledge the reality of our everyday lives. The majority of us have lives that are average and fully liveable, and we might not always perceive them as truly amazing from our own perspectives.

Lowering Expectations and Embracing Transience

The key for coping with the daily struggles is to lower our expectations and embrace the fleeting nature of life and our emotions. Just for a moment, pause and look up at the vast blue skies. Everything that we long for and everything that drives us can be just a phase, a temporary feeling. The sun rises and sets, it rains and it shines. The constant adaptability that life demands can be a challenge, but also an opportunity to grow.

The Importance of Emotions and Their Transience

Our emotions, both high and low, are transient. They come and they go. Life is such that it is never constant. What we can learn is the art of adaptation. Embrace the fleeting nature of life's emotions and circumstances. You might be going through a phase where you feel completely fed up with your life, your family, and your friends. It's important to recognize that these feelings are temporary and a part of the journey of life. We only have one life to live, and every moment is precious.

Seeking Help and Embracing Hope

There are numerous medicines and professional consultations that can help alleviate the burden you are carrying. Trust me, it may seem difficult, but within a week, you may start to see a difference. Often, seeking help is the first step towards finding a way forward. I, too, felt deeply fed up with my life, often feeling like a meaningless soul in a meaningless world, doing meaningless jobs. While I don't wish to offer external motivation, it's important to recognize that the feeling of motivation comes from within.

The Value of Pain in Understanding Joy

Your pain is a stark reminder of what joy is. It's a journey we have to go through to truly appreciate and understand the beauty and value of our lives. Some people wish to live just one more hour, while others aim for just one more minute. In the end, gratitude is the key—gratitude for pain so we may know what joy is. It's a journey that brings us to a place of growth and resilience. Wishing you the very best on this journey.

Applause for Resilience in a Struggling World

Coming from a country where the population is the highest and incomes are among the lowest, I have seen people commit suicide, leaving families and friends in tears for years. For me, finding any sense in life, especially given the circumstances, has been a challenge. Yet, I advise you to find a way to be useful in some capacity. Whether it's through education, business, or any other goal, keep working towards it until you accomplish it. Perhaps in doing so, you will earn a little respect for yourself and your life. And as time passes, you might laugh at the very question you're asking now. Good luck on this journey.
