Venting i cant say one good thing about myself.

[thedevilwithin]

it amazes me how useless of a person i am. it's astonishing. i cant do anything correctly. i need an escape so fucking bad, more than ever. i just wish i could be on a mountain somewhere right now, listening to the singing of the birds, feeling the gusts of wind hitting my face. where i can lay back, fall asleep and just..

disappear.

never to be disturbed again.

Not that it's going to help you much because there is so much uggliness in this world but- you can appreciate nature and beauty. Maybe not a skill but that can be a gift. I think some people can experience truly incredible sights/ sounds/ experiences and maybe feel nothing.

Not that it helps you practically much though- I'm sorry. Do other people care about you? Can you try and see yourself through their eyes or, does that annoy you more?

I feel similarly. I genuinely think I'm one of the most flawed people in existence. I can find good things about everyone else except myself. I daydream about living completely away from society all the time, but I doubt that's possible. I can't really say much about you since I don't know you, but just know you aren't alone.

 

[beelzebul]

If it means anything, you're very well spoken and like Forever said, you appreciate nature. That's something.

I feel the same the only good thing I can say about myself is that I'm pretty sure I've seen every episode of family guy

I relate. I remember back in grade school all the way up into high school, I hated it when they made us write down or say things about ourselves. I especially hated it when they specifically wanted us to write down or say good things about ourselves because nothing would ever come to mind.


I have no good qualities. I'm not smart, I'm not likeable, I have no achievements or talents, my personality is trash, I've got nothing. I constantly feel like a blank slate. Like I'm just a caricature of what a human is or like a poorly written character from some shitty novel. I'm completely useless.

totally agreed i cling onto relationships and such just so i can mold into whatever person they want me to be as a way to cope. i have no true form im not me im just whatever is needed to appear normal and not out of place.

I think even the worst person in the world, whatever that means, has something good about them. The world just isn't black and white-- it's the opposite. It's very complex. And the odds are practically certain that you're far from the worst person in the world. That, by definition, means you must have good qualities, regardless of how you feel(our feelings can easily be confused). The problem is the bar for human connection is so high, that merely having some good qualities, which again, everyone has, is not enough, given that the social game that monkeys like us tend to play is full of problems, paradoxes, concerns, countless ways of things going wrong, and so on. Those problems are a function of the world we exist in. So don't be hard on yourself-- it is pointless misery based on confusion in a world where there is already excessive misery.

i have my brother. he's the only one who cares about me genuinely. he's the only reason i'm still here.
