I feel so bad about myself- what can I do to make me feel better?

2

I just feel bad and lonely in life. My mother and I are in a huge fight, and I don’t even live with her anymore. She has kinda “stopped” being my mother. It crushes me so, and it feels like it is my fault. She does blame everything on me, but I know if I do something wrong, I will apologize for it. However, if she ever does anything wrong, she will never ever bring it up, tell me she is sorry, nor try to make me feel better. How can I just get through a hard time?

You need to re evaluate your life. Why are you losing your mom? Is it something that is fixable and if it is, do it? Your dad is sick, make sure you spend as much time with him and make him happy. Life and death is a cycle, one day it will happen to you too. You have to accept it first, and then make everyday as special as possible after so you do not regret anything. As for your friend, this has happened to me as well. Some people just dont want to be friends anymore, even though you two may have many fun and awesome memories together. If you have kept trying and nothing is working, just let that person know you are always there for them and let it be. When you can let it be, then you can move on and find new friends that will cherish your friendship as well. Life has a lot of changes, the more we accept that, the better we can move on. And if this does not work, then eat alot of ice cream and watch a sad movie. Its good to break down and cry every once in a while. Just remember that one day, you will need to get over it to move forward in life.

It's normal for you to feel sad right now. There are times in our life where we can just cry and accept the things we feel because if we don't it'll continue to haunt us. Happiness is like a butterfly. The more you chase it, the more it'll evade you. I can't tell you 'how' because only you know how but I can guarantee you that you WILL be happy. Maybe not today, or tomorrow, but you will. You'll just wake up one day feeling light, free, and happy.

ok, here it is, when there's pain in your life,you cant just skip through it, or circle your way around it, pain is made to go through, that is the only way, because when you are going through true pain you have to live through it, that's the whole point of it. ok, like in your current situation, I cannot tell you I understand exactly what you are going through, or say that it will be ok later on, I wont feed you lies, but I can help you right now, I can tell you how the present can affect the future but truth is, if you're not ready to feel happy, don't force yourself, because you will only be truly happy on your own terms, its all about patience honey, and right now it may not be the best, right now you may just want to end it all, and you are going through pain, but without this pain, you wouldn't be who you are today. so all you need is patience, and take your own healing time to be happy, not rush into it, don't let anyone rush you into it, because its YOUR happiness, and you decide when to make it all happen. Have a wonderful day sweetie, I believe in you.

I want to thank the people who have answered my question. It really means a lot that you took the time to give me some words of courage, hope, wisdom, and love. I also want to say thank you to The Passing Stranger for telling me that happiness is like a butterfly. The more you chase it, the more it will evade you. I really like that quote-and I even saw 2 butterflies that flew around me today which just lifted my spirits. Thank you so much again to each and everyone of you.
