My self-esteem was already the lowest it’s been in a while for redacted reasons before I got sick so being forced to be a literally worthless pile flesh for a week is not helping me. Being immunocompromised is hell sometimes.

It's a very surreal feeling to feel disemboweled with emotional pain and -then- have your body set on fire with physical illness, so you get to do both at the same time. IDK what I did to deserve this but I wish I hadn't
Your perspective is so valued, as are your nature videos. Hoping that you feel better in both ways. And while I'm certain that some part of you already knows this well, you didn't do anything to deserve these maladies; not how the world works.
You never did anything to deserve this. I'm so sad for you, I wish I could take the pain away. I hope this passes soon for you and you start to feel better. I wish there was something I could do for you.
Sorry to hear you have been suffering with health issues, being sick can definitely take its toll mentally but please remember to be kind to yourself (the way you would if someone you loved was going thru it)❤️🩹
That’s why I always make sure my brother knows he can take as much time off work as he needs. He’s always had a lot of health related issues, but my parents never let any of us skip even a single day of school.
You are a human being. You are not worthless. Just the fact that you posted this may help others who feel the same way, recognize that they are not alone. We humans can not know how we affect the world, but you do affect it for the good in the universe. Looking at your pic, you're also beautiful. ❤️❤️
You're the best Craig 🥹. I'm just weepy today. Honestly I think I blame Andor. I've been called a lot of bad names lately (and always, since birth) and so being sick while seeing myself cast as the villain is busting some feelings out. I'll get through it I always do 🫂♥️
Never , ever call yourself worthless.
No nature, kids, and family loving human being is worthless.
You took on too much, and your body is telling you to slow down.
The current chaos is not helping.
Breathe, hydrate, and rest.
Think about those you love and that love you back.
They showed up in my feed yesterday, nearly fell off my chair. Investing in kids is always, always... worth it... even if they are germ carrying brats at times. You've deserved your paradise, just not yet Ok ? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pKNcDDCg_k8
2025 isn't sparing with its challenges, and the constant stress makes juggling and balancing our mental and physical health even more complicated than usual. (Typing on cracked fingertips from stress-triggered psoriasis.) Try and be gentle and patient with yourself, which can be its own hell.
I can relate. I found you have to make adjustments in order to function at your highest potential. So take time for rest, good nutrtion, fun things, socializing, and all.
Do not let your condition still you so much you lose your quality of life.
As much as I understand being immunocompromised (chronically ill with rare diseases), I know for certain you are not worthless. Not in any way missy! Get well soon.
Deirdre - You are totally Worthful. We all hit low points in life - from illness, feelings, disappointments, or lack of energy. The best thing about being sick is the wonderful feeling of your energy when you feel better. Think of it as a body cleanse in your Timeline. I hope you feel that soon!
You're so sweet David. You're right. ♥️ I've just had a very traumatic... what is it... four months now, and being sick is breaking my containment system. I'll get through it. I have no choice! 😄

TL;DR you're pretty swell.
I’ve been there + made it through (had a month of hell once before my condition went into remission with long, patient work).
You will get through too! 🙏🏼
Being immuno compromised is a depressing situation
Rest. Recharge. Be well. 🙂

May I recommend for distraction, this? Taskmaster is antic, comedic genius. Laughter helps.
Do not let your condition still you so much you lose your quality of life.
I empathize *from a place of knowing* more than you may be aware.
You’re seen, you’re heard, & your feelings are more than valid; if you ever need to vent/explode/despair, please reach out. 💜

I stand with you always.
