Hi Rainee. There are quite a lot of us here who can relate to your trip to "the dark side." There have been times in my life when it was a major accomplishment for me just to brush my teeth....eeewww. In the past I have felt an overwhelming sense of being totally worthless. At those times my only survival skill was to constantly remind myself that those feelings are one of the terrible symptoms of mood disorders.(a sometimes difficult to treat illness) Things now are sooo much better for me. I know it's tough, but try and convince yourself it won't always be this bad for you. It does get better. One day you'll be able to look back on this and....well, maybe not laugh...but be able say, "boy howdy. am I glad that's over." Please write here often if you can and let us know how you're doing. Glad you're here. My wish for you is to feel better very soon.
Peace, Love, and Happiness
