It hurts a lot

I keep feeling like im useless. Like my life has no significance. I can’t make people smile, I can’t draw, I can’t write stories, I can’t do anything. I don’t feel as happy, I don’t know how to be okay. I don’t want to give up but i can’t find anything that gives me hope

Amaris,

I understand your position so much. Finding some kind of meaning in life can be difficult. Dont worry about the the things you can’t do; like making others smile, drawing, or story telling. Right now you need to focus on yourself. Tell me, what makes you happy? Is it going for walks? Submerging yourself in a video game? Listening to music? What makes you feel happy? Even if only for a moment.

Becoming okay is something we all have different paths to. I still dont know what path will lead to me being okay. But it’s something I yearn for daily; to finally say that I’m better.

It’s okay to not be okay.

Garrett Rapp from The Color Morale said it best in their song titled Steadfast. “Without darkness, no star can learn to guide the way.”
