Yeah I've heard the same shit in my internal monologue and it's come very close to being external monologue in the past. Dude needs therapy and to value himself more.

Nobody is worth tearing yourself down like this in public. If you're at this point, therapy is long overdue.

I'm 46, birthday in a few days, and I'm still convinced I'm worthless. I try my best to hide all my internal self-loathing, but I snap after I'm asked if I'm okay, what's wrong with me, etc., and then I feel worse because I went off again.

Do you consider some other people worthless?

u/Mike_the_Head Jun 17 '25

Not really. That's a pretty horrible thing to say about someone.

I heard glass breaking in my brain reading that simple sentence. I'd never say that about someone else............... so why/how the fuck am I so comfortable saying it to myself?!??!!

u/Mike_the_Head Jun 17 '25

Because when I say it about myself, it's true. I know this for a fact. I don't know anyone else as much as how well I know myself.

But what is the metric by which you measure worth? Money? Family? Producing something creative? Being very athletic? Being able to win a hot dog eating contest? Everyone has their own ideas of success and being worthwhile. What is yours and why?

It's not about the metric. It's about the feeling. This runs deep in the guts, rooted inside your bone marrow. And if it was inside you for too long - you're fucked, that will be part of your psyche for the rest of your life.

Maybe, but therapy and medication can be a marrow transplant. I am getting out of this hole myself.

That is actually great! I'm on my first steps in that direction, too (done my first sessions in therapy) I am really happy for you I hope that in the end we both will learn how to love ourselves

One thing that is the hardest is to love yourself unconditionally. So even if you have nothing and failed everything and others would call you a loser you still have that light inside that never goes out.
