Answer 1

To get a rainbow, you have to have sunshine at the same time as a shower. Sometimes, it is only when we face the worst, that we release the best. No 'quick, instant high' compares, for example, to the sense of elevation you get when, after a long period of feeling low, your mood finally starts to pick up. Think back over the deep difficulties you have encountered lately. For all that they have been so painful, they have led to one real ray of hope. As you now follow that back to the source, you will yet discover a priceless treasure.

good day~~~~~~

Answer 5

You need practice at challenging your thoughts. You are obviously not stupid- your post tells me that.

Neither are you worthless, that's a given, you are a human being and you are worth as much as anyone else.

Given your outlook on yourself, it's not surprising that you think you're ugly; I'm willing to bet you're much prettier than you think you are.

If you're tired of thinking the way you do then you have the battle half-won.
