Even if you can only think of one of two positive things about yourself, focus on those.

Okay I was always debating on whether or not I had depression or if I was just creating myself to be sad. But after you said you said I have it or I'm on the road to having it when I think I already do. I definitely don't feel good about me anymore. I don't feel important like I used to. I don't feel as smart as I used to. (I think all the AP classes I took throughout highschool completely shattered by confidence because everyone else GOT the lesson while I was confused most of the time, I even cried to my teacher at the end of class). I think I do have depression if I don't feel confident every day and I feel like I'm barely hanging on to any confidence I have.
I felt suicidal before too. It was really really bad before I started therapy. I was thinking about death everyday and no one knew how sad I felt. Honestly focusing on my good qualities don't help. I don't even know what is good about myself anymore. I feel not good. That's all I can say.
Thank you, you have given me more hope than I had. You are proof for hope.
