SpoilerWhile I personally hate therapists, I have seen many, I truly believe that they can help. If at first talking doesn't help, short term (or long term) medication can help, that's something to consider.
I went through a very difficult period in my life where someone constantly told me I was worthless and even though it was 10+ years ago, I still struggle today with the feelings, especially since the "abuse" happened when I was young and impressionable.
I hope you find the help you need and are able to work through whatever you're going through. <3
I've always personally wondered about therapist (thanks to Arrested Development I think of a different name for them, lol) because it's like "how would talking to someone professionally be a different experience than talking with someone who isn't a professional, is it just paying to have someone listen to my problems?" Of course it's also a "don't knock it until you try it".
It's weird, it's not even like my childhood was filled with instances where I was told that I was worthless, being constantly second guessed or even belittled, etc. it's probably more of an abandonment issue that causes me to feel the way that I am.
At the end of the day I guess all I want is to be reassured that I'm wanted and that I matter

So here I am today, thinking "is this fixable? if it is. how do I go about fixing it?" I don't think I'm necessarily depressed, but at the same time I do struggle with finding meaning to my life and catch myself saying "what do I bring to the table? Life goes on, whether you're there or not"
I know that I shouldn't base my self worth on other people's perception of me and that is a dangerous path to go down.
Probably should start speaking to a therapist

The next 24 hours will dictate a huge portion of my life going forward. Despite how terrified I am of the unknown, I'm also pumped that the next chapter of my life could be starting.
Let's do this.
Just noticed that I never posted an update about this. It was about a job and condo interview (for rent), I got both so now I'm out of my dad's place and I have a new job (with a raise). Life should be good but sometimes I miss my old life (despite how often I'd complain about it). Probably just takes time to adjust to the new

I like climbing or any other way of expelling excess energy (in a non-violent matter).
Eventually I think I'll enjoy reading for pleasure as a way to relax but I'm still easing myself into that hobby
