Hi Yohannes, so sorry to hear you are feeling so down, and hopeless. Always try to remember that you are a unique person in your own right regardless of job title, qualifications etc. Feeling a burden to others happens a lot to people who are feeling depressed, I bet if you asked your friends and family to write down at least one good thing each about you they would be able to think of great qualities you have immediately! Perhaps you could do a little voluntary work, it is surprising how much it can help a person feel better by giving to others, and is a great way of meeting people and feeling valued. Share your thoughts and fears with someone you can trust, or speak to a counsellor or minister, whoever you think you feel comfortable approaching. It is the pain of your emotions that is making you feel like this, and I bet it is not at all a reflection of the true you. In the words of a song…….keep smiling, keep shining, :-). We are all out here rooting for you and ready to give some moral support if you need it, don’t give up, things will change when you least expect them to !!! Good wishes and smiles – Sarah Jane
