You've gotten so many great replies already.
Please don't ever regret posting. I'm glad you did. And I love how you were so honest and open about how you're feeling. That's amazing.

I've had a similar problem with therapists. It appalls me how many people in this world treat everyone around them like dirt. Or as only someone with money. It sounds like you haven't found the right therapist. Neither have I... and I've had some pretty horrible people. Most have only cared about making money off me. One cared, but hadn't a clue. The only thing she knew how to do was to point me down the hall to a PDoc. I'm sorry you have been so hurt by these therapists, it's not right and I REALLY hope you can find one that cares. But for what it's worth I don't think it's YOU, I think it's the system. And the therapists in question probably just weren't right for you. I feel your pain, I wish I could take it away

Fuzzy, you are NEVER a waste of space, or a waste of oxygen.

That list you wrote, perfectly valid. That's how you feel. But I don't agree that it's what you ARE.

You're not lazy, you're depressed. There is a HUGE difference, but it's one that not many people understand unless they've been there themselves.
"withdrawn" is not always a negative word. But being withdrawn is also part of depression.
Needy, insecure, selfish also all can be lumped under the category of depression or other things you're going through.
So essentially it means you're SICK! (*great x.x*) Point is, that if I had a broken, would it be right for my friends to be upset with me?
You do not come off as a selfish person to me.

Sending many hugs,
you're not a waste of time to me at all, or I wouldn't be writing this post
In fact I consider replying back to your post and excellent use of my time
