Feelings of Worthlessness

Worthlessness can be defined as feelings of desperation, lack of purpose, or hopelessness.

Feelings of worthlessness can occur during an episode of sadness, depression, grief, anxiety or be triggered by:

The experience of a traumatic event
Job loss
Divorce
Financial difficulties
Any other stressful event

How are feelings of worthlessness treated?

Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) , a form of psychotherapy has been shown to be effective in treating feelings of worthlessness, as it can help individuals adjust their thoughts related to these negative feelings.

When left untreated, worthlessness can cause an individual to experience suicidal thoughts . If you are experiencing any feelings of worthlessness and/or have thoughts of harming yourself please contact a mental health professional immediately or emergency services (9-1-1).
