The pain of feeling unworthy, and unloved feels like a slow, dying. You think no one else is going through what you’re going through. And the only energy you have is focused on how to escape it.
If I could talk to myself back when I was struggling, I would say, “There is hope. There is light. There is happiness, joy and love beyond what you can picture for yourself. More people love you than you realize. You matter and you will find your way. It takes courage to get through one moment at a time.”
If you’re struggling, surround yourself with supportive people including friends, family, and a good therapist. Our posts this week will also deliver this important message: whether you’re struggling with loneliness, emptiness, or addiction, you’re definitely not alone.
