You may feel like nobody cares about you, but remember you’re worth caring about no matter how bad you feel right now or what anyone says! To show yourself some self-love, remind yourself that it’s okay to be imperfect. Whenever you start to feel down, watch movies or TV shows that make you laugh to boost your mood. Animals can also be a great support during hard times, so spend time with your pet or see if someone you know has a pet you can play with. Even if you feel like there’s no one you can talk to, you can get support online from a therapy website like Blah Therapy. If you often feel hopeless or worthless, consider visiting a psychiatrist so they can offer more solutions, such as therapy or medication.
