    You're not a horrible person at all @Chloe234 or a disappointment, I'm really sorry you feel that way. We all care about you a lot on the mix so we're here for you whenever you need it. Try to take care of yourself <3

    That sounds like a lot to be dealing with right now @Chloe234 and I can imagine how you must be feeling genuinely especially as you have mentioned about being mentally exhuasted. However, I don't personally think that you are a horrible person at all because here you have been such a lovely member and have brought so much joy to us all especially me too. I know that probs sounds cheesy right now and may not be the best way of helping but you are such a nice person and you have a very kind heart. It can be hard though sometimes when we feel super tired especially after bad things happening one after the other (a bit like a domino effect I would say) because we feel bad about ourselves and feel like we are bad people because of the bad things happening around us. Im always here for you if you do need someone right now <3.

    What you're holding right now is incredibly heavy @Chloe234 . It's completely understandable to feel exhausted when things keep going wrong and you feel like you're not getting the support you need. Those feelings of disappointment and worthlessness are valid, and it's important to acknowledge them. You are so much more than any disappointment or mistakes you feel you've made. We want you here. We value everything you bring to the community.

    This might not feel true right now, but you are worthy of love and support :star:

    I'm conscious that getting those kinds of thoughts out is important @Chloe234 and I'm glad you're not keeping them inside. Sometimes you need a space to just let it out.

    @lunarcat522 is right, but I can also understand if us reassuring you doesn't change your opinion of yourself, even if you believe what we're saying (I'm not sure if you do). What stands out to me is that you must have been through rough stuff to convince you that you're all those things.

    Not even my parents care about me. I'm a disappointment and horrible person. No one would care if I wasn't here. Bad things happen one after another. I'm so mentally exhausted
    Out of curiosity, what would you say to someone who felt this way about themselves?
    All behaviour is a need trying to be met.
    The truth resists simplicity.
    I no longer work at The Mix! If you need anything, message or tag @TheMix

    @Chloe234 i dont know your parents so I can’t confirm whether they love you or not, but you definitely are an important person. I know The Mix at least wouldn’t be the same without you 🫂 I don’t think you’re a horrible person and you’re important to me.

    @Chloe234 it's clear you've been carrying a heavy weight on your shoulders. You're mentally strong and resilient for carrying that weight and pushing through the hardest of times. Keep doing that just as you already are. You do lots for the Mix and we appreciate that. You're not a horrible person - you're friendly and you have a kind heart as @Amy22 mentioned, and you deserve better.

    Hey @Chloe234 you sound like you’re going through a really awful time and you’re dealing with a lot, it also sounds like you’re feeling really isolated, does that sound right? I obviously don’t know you personally but I can tell you this, you sharing these feelings with us all was incredibly brave and I’m proud of you for sharing ❤️ Always here to chat :)
