GOD HAS INVESTED TOO MUCH IN YOU, SO YOU CANNOT REMAIN SILENT

WHAT DO YOU DO WHEN YOU FEEL WORTHLESS?
I have talked to people who have dealt with self-hate, and as someone who has dealt with it myself, I can say that I have never heard or encountered someone who wakes up one morning and says: I desire to hate myself.
