Hi Coffeeanyone,
I think your friend is suffering from deep depression because of insecurity feeling. It is ver difficult to encourage people of this type by saying any good reason. I am sure, as friend you would have given plenty of reasons. Inspite that she is still discouraged in life.
The best thing you can do to your friend is to take her to a psychiatrist and provide her with treatment and ensure that she takes medicines atleast for 4 months and if you give any encouraging ideas she will take up. Please do this help to her.
Good Luck to you and my wishes to your friend for a speedy recovery.

Yes you have hit the nail on the head. She has no reason at all to have low self esteem but she sure does and it goes deep. She is going to go to her doctor and maybe a few months on meds will help her to focus on something other then how she feels about herself so that light can come in to see there is always brighter days ahead. I hope so anyway.

Hope is a good medecine to live for future and hope means having an aim to reach somehing which is at a finite distance.So better keep Aim and try to reach out with all your talent .So finally i want to conclude by saying that usually an Aimless person will die...and better to die..
also Never Never Never give up your Hope..and your Aim....
Always Aim high Dream high...and be a most good one in the society.....ofcourse its a good challenge to be..like that..it was also an Aim. Best of luck.

Thank you for your imput I appreciate it. She is going to her doctor but still no matter what I suppose medications can't help if her thinking doesn't change. I don't know I am just assuming.

dear C...i would have her go back for a year or two in her life...and look at a specific time that she was very discouraged and down and had no hope...then i would ask her to see what happened as she lived after that...that eventually there was a shift in her consciousness, and she did emerge from that state of mind, into a better mindset...people depressed, tend to think in concrete terms of black and white...no gray areas.. so if you could remind her how she bounced back and became happy in her life after being in depressed state...stanzi

Thank you so much for the reply. I am really hoping she does get over this soon. It has been a long time. She is going to see her doctor at least so that is good.
