I hate myself.

I hate myself. I was not like this before and I don't know how to go back. I use to have morals and boundaries, now I don't care enough to have them. I got married to young, dropped out of school, won't get a job, and sit on my ass wasting away. I want to better myself, but I just hate myself so much I don't see the point of even trying. I honestly think I'm a sad excuse for a human being and wish I would drop dead. How do I get out of this state?

    Sounds like you need medication and to see a counselor. SOmetimes an uninterested 3rd party to talk to is all you need. Also, don't listen to the first poster. They may "need" God to find a meaning for their life but trust me, there is no all knowing, all powerful magical sky wizard. Just like there is no Easter Bunny, Santa Clause or any other magical being. I still am baffled how grown people who clearly don't believe in other magical beings still believe in one. Just remember, better living through (legal) chemistry is the answer here and someone to talk to about your feelings. Some one who answers you back, not is some perceived signs.

    You need to find God. He cares about you and wants you to do better for yourself.

      mehhhhhh, I think actually doing something and getting your marriage in order would be a bigger step in the right direction. But maybe god will help with that.

    OMGosh I am the sameeee. I am twenty one and I got married at ninteen. Sometimes I love being married, and sometimes I wish I haven't but I try not to think about it cause what's done is done..but anyways. Yea I was so depressed for the longest time that I couldn't do anything. I just wanted to do nothing, I stopped seeing my friends and spent everyday hating myself more and more. My husband got so fed up with me not doing anything, I tried overdosing on sleeping pills but I'm still here...Finally, I went to a cosmetology school (which i barely go to), got my temporary license and found a 40hour job at a nail/hair salon as a hair assistant and a nail technician when it got busy. I hate my job though..the owner is the cheapest person I've ever met, there is bad energy in the air even among the workers but I'm still working cause I know if I get out, I will go back to the way I was...stay home and feel bad for myself. I need to take a test for the license but I've skipped it multiple times...and I'm just stuck. I hate doing anything. I feel like I'm working for the money or working just to do something...I have no real ambition or confidence if I did.... I'm just letting you know, you're not alone..please..although you hate yourself, don't kill yourself..if you do, then that'd make me feel a sense of hopelessness also when I start feeling depressed and pity on myself again. I will try to be strong, and you try to be strong and lets give everyone in this world or whoever is reading this some kind of hope. I'm not saying to change or anything. Just do something small..and take it slow. I give all luck and blessings to you.

    I would say just think of what would make your life happy, a dream or goal, and imagine yourself in that happy state. Then put the wheels in motion to make it come true.

    This kinda sounds like the movie 'The Boxer' He wants to make a better life of himself...because he's an ex-con...so he goes for help from his family FIRST, and since that didnt work... he went to go find a job, but later becomes a boxer to make a life of himself :D

    seek help

    I've been down that road. It seems like I go in and out of phases. Find something, ANYTHING, in life that you care about and better yourself for that cause. OR think about how much better life could be if certain aspects changed. Anything good in life is worth fighting for

    do what i don't (which is post my problems on these computer sites)and try to fix the source of the problem.
    okay so you seem depressed.
    symptoms are natures warnings. contrary to popular believe depression is a symptom, not the disease.
    i suggest looking inside for answers.
    I am not married and i tell you i feel lonely at times. you would too if you weren't married.
    I think life has pros and cons, its your choice which things you focus on and how you use your time.

    You are not alone, I'm the same, it just that you have to find yourself, do things you life to do, try to obtain new interest, dicover the world has many beautiful stuff

    yeah i would do the doctor thing. But maybe it would help if you gave yourself a reason to live. Set a goal for yourself. There are so many people who wish they had half as much as you do , do something about your pathetic state. ( i mean it in a nice way )
