I feel like I piss everyone off with my personality.
I feel weak.
I feel tired.
I feel exhausted.
I feel like my energy is drained.
I feel physically weakened.
I'm too fat.
I feel over weight.
I feel obese.
I feel like I can't control my eating habits.
Just nonstop take away food.
Can't take control of my life.
I feel like I'm out of control, in terms of, everything.
I can't feel like I'm in control of my life.
I feel weak, once again.
I feel sorry to my mum.
She's getting old, and I'm not helping at all.
I wish I could give her the world.
I wish I can buy a house with a dishwasher.
I wish I can eat Lite n' Easy, so it doesn't create dirty dishes.
I have no hope.
Ain't nobody going to help me.
They all say they will help me.
But then, soon after, they all turn their backs on me.
I need help. So I seek help.
Ain't nobody answers me. At all.

Dear Guitarboy,
Welcome to the forums. I'm sorry to hear you are in a bad place.
It sounds like you feel hopeless about life and that there are a lot of negative thoughts about your worth cycling through your mind. You feel lonely since people have turned their backs on you.
I wonder if you'd like to share more about your life with us? Why do you feel so worthless? You have a gift with words, what you wrote here is so evocative. You're a good person who wants to care for your mother, even in this difficult time.
Do share more with us, if you feel comfortable to. Our forums are a non-judgemental, safe space for you to share your story. I hope it provides some comfort to you. I also hope our community makes you feel less alone. Do browse the forums and see if there are threads you can connect with.
Kindly,
M

Hello Guitarboy..
A very warm and caring welcome to the forums...
I am deeply sorry your struggling so much with your life and you...
I know one thing I feel straight away is that you have a very caring heart and love your mum, wanting to help her when your feeling so low....Thats beautiful to hear...
Guitarboy...I’m thinking you might love guitars..do you play them?...something very calming hearing the gentle chords being strummed on the guitar...
Please don’t loose your hope...I believe that it hides sometimes and we need to look for things that will make it grow stronger for us...Hopefully we can help you find it again....
Do you mind me asking if you have reached out to your Dr.?....If Not is it something that you might consider. Depression like any other illness need professional care to help us fight our way back to wellness...
We are all here for you dear Guitarboy and hoping that we can offer you our help in your struggles...
My kindest and caring thought..
Grandy..

Hello Guitarboy, welcome to the forums.
That makes me sad to see you feel that way about yourself, I'm really sorry you're struggling with those thoughts. But I'm here to remind you:
You have a good personality, not a bad one, or the worst as you wrote, and you don't annoy people with your personality.
You're not weak, and it's okay to feel tired, exhausted, like your energy is drained and physically weakened. it's normal and common. You're strong for trying to seek help including joining here and sharing how you feel, it takes a lot of courage, so well done. I commend you.
You're not fat, and I can say that without knowing you, through here. You're not overweight and obese either. Sometimes people eat a lot, to comfort themselves, like comfort food. And this is OK to do.
I don't think you're out of control, and I'm sure you will find support, through here, your Mum, and others, if you wish. I support you.
You sound like you love your Mum, and that's sweet. Please don't feel bad about your struggles, it's ok to feel the way you do, you're worthy of love, care, and good stuff in life.
I'm here to help, support you and listen, without turning my back on you.
Please take care of yourself, and know none of the stuff you wrote about yourself is true, I know how hard it is to convince yourself it's not.
