Those thoughts are common in major depressive disorder, more commonly known as depression. There are many approaches to treating depression. Therapy can be quite helpful; a skilled therapist can teach you coping strategies that you can use when those thoughts arise. Medication is also a possibility. There is unnecessary stigma surrounding medication; many people fare far better with medication than without. I encourage you to reach out to those close to you. It can be hard to talk about such feelings, but knowing how much people care can help a lot. Things would certainly not be better without you; talking to those people will show you that. If you are ever in crisis, you can call the national suicide hotline at 1-800-273-8255. Hang in there; there is a light at the end of the tunnel. I promise you that.

Nothing in this world is a mistake everything has essence and has its place. It is not stupid to feel a certain way any emotion for that matter it is to come to the understanding of why we feel the way we do. If we aren't looking at ourselves then we aren't doing much of living it's mechanical. What one can do is observe oneself in everyday situation without judgement, condemnation, without conclusion in the awareness(attention) there is the total unfoldment of what one is and what one is doing.

I'm sensing that you feel out of place. Find something you're passionate about and do that. Doesn't matter what it is just do it.

It's not stupid that you feel like a mistake. We'll never know for sure if we are mistakes or not but that doesn't matter at all.

Do you know Pokemon? Well even if you don't there was a quote in one of the movies that really changed how I thought. "I see now that the circumstances of one's birth are irrelevant. It is what you do with the gift of life that determines who you are." -Mewtwo

Wanting to belong is something that's hard-wired into humans. I think we've all taken a step back from a laughing group of friends once in our lives and wondered if anything would happen if we disappeared.

If you want to feel like you belong, try believing that you belong. You can do a lot of things once you believe in yourself.

I can sense you're in a bad place right now. Sometimes we hit bumps in the road and it hurts... a lot. You have and will impact so many people's lives. and those people couldn't imagine a world without you. everybody makes mistakes, but nobody is a mistake. You are worth so much more than people can realize. Find something you love and go for it. Take some risks, try your hardest and never give up. talk about it to a trusted adult. Do something that can take your mind of feeling that way.
