I wouldn't say such things to you. Just because you have a roof over your head doesn't mean it's a safe environment for you.
I used to feel the same as you: "society says" or "people say" or "they say". My T asked me who are "society", "people", "they"? And what makes them right? And who said we have to listen to "them"?
Things like this is what you can learn in therapy: how to expand your thinking to include "grey areas", how to help change your thought process, to learn to love and value yourself. Feelings, thoughts, and actions are all intertwined. Change one, the rest will change.
Everyone could use therapy no matter age, race, gender, sexuality, social status, education, experience, or reasons to seek therapy. You are not in an easy situation. You are at least taking steps to seek out support here... Which tells me you still value yourself and your life.
