Useless?

I feel so… so useless nowadays… I mean… I can barely help my friends… I don’t know what to say to comfort them more than half the time. I want to be able to help others more… Especially my friends… What’s a good way to let them know that I’m here for them? That I’ll listen to them? That I can be a wall they can lean on and depend upon?

Answer #1

Some people can’t be helped, it’s a phase they have to go through.

Eli your an amazing person and you shouldn’t feel like this. You’re putting way too much stress on yourself.

Answer #2

I’m pretty sure your friends are glad enough to have you around,if you feel you want to do more for them,ask them what you can do to give more.

Your not useless,you just want to give back more.

Answer #3

Sometimes we can’t fix the problem and the bast and most needed thing is being there to listen. Someone who takes time out of there busy lives to make someone else feel that they are important and matter.

Answer #4

I feel the same way as eli nowadays.

Answer #5

Answer #6

Answer #7

Hey, its not you. it takes time to relate to the problem and give advice on it. Sometimes (its really sad) it takes me two days to come up with advice. Looks like we both have the same problem. Your not useless, no one is useless. Even me (which is a surprise). Just because you cant help one or two people doesnt make you useless. It makes you think harder about yourself and what you would want someone to say to you.

Everyone wants to be useful, but at best all you can do sometimes is be by there side, that is enough, believe me. a lot of people like you, I know. We understand, and you know what Your kind. You do a lot, as for the people who actualy spend time with you, show them this very question! They’ll know just how much you care for them.
