How am I supposed to help others live better lives when I can’t even live well myself?

Question by Sahar: How am I supposed to help others live better lives when I can’t even live well myself?
I’ve been spiraling. It’s like my brain’s gone haywire and literally every bad thing I’ve done, every humiliating memory, every step in the wrong direction I’ve taken is coming back to haunt me. It’s making me go crazy. I keep having these dreams, nightmares I should say, about the unspeakable. I’m a part of group at school which is supposed to help other students cope with traumatic events and drug abuse by peer counseling and offering help for those kids who need it. I find it funny how I’m one of the few picked to help others when I can’t even help myself. I’ve been having thoughts of suicide, but I’m too afraid to tell anyone because of fear of I don’t know what. It’s just getting all bad. It’s not just one event causing these thoughts, it’s multiple situations. Situations I don’t have answers to, situations I don’t want to have answers to. My whole life seems worthless. Almost as if every breath I take is just a waste of this good Earth’s oxygen. I want to stop thinking forever.

Sometimes to help others you have to have experienced the same bad things. You seem well equipped to give advice on everything bad. Why don’t you write me and reveal some of the worst thing in your past. I may not be able to help you but I would enjoy hearing about it. Good Luck!
