What's making you sad today

[DanaC]

Some people can be so very careless with other people's state of mind.

What qualifies this other person to judge your worthiness? Why accept their judgement as more valid than another?

We've seen at close quarters, in this place, how catastrophically wrong someone can be about their own value. Bri's family are still living with the fallout from that and will do so for the rest of their lives. And every longtime dwellar here felt and feels that loss at times. For all that I understand how depression and addiction can warp a person's sense of their own place in the world, it baffles me still how someone so warm and valued could feel so worthless.

I have no doubt in my mind that there are people who would be equally baffled that you feel this way about yourself.
