Ever since I was a child, I feel like I'm useless. I feel redundant. Working on positive relationships

I feel unwanted at work. Advise me how to live on. If not for the family, everything would have seemed even gloomier.

Work for me was always more than just earnings. It has always been and remains important to do things that people really need.

After graduation, everything was great. I got a good job almost immediately in a bank (I graduated from the university in 1994 in St. Petersburg - devastation, unemployment, returned to my native Pskov). Started working as an ordinary programmer. Two years later, I had two very popular programs under my belt, implementation in all regional branches of the bank. in the IT department, I became the head of the development sector. In 1998 I was invited to Moscow to an IT company developing banking software. And again success. Wrote one very demanded program in a rather short period of time. Implementations, improvements, business trips around the country, etc. After a couple of years of work in the company, there was another opportunity to prove myself - they offered to write a large and important program. I took it. He worked hard and hard. A year later, the first result appeared. Three more years of improvements, implementations, and the product began to take on finished forms. Apparently, this was the peak of my career. This is around 2003. The program went into circulation - several very large and many small banks installed my application in five years. It was a necessary and very good product. Of course, his team did. A group of like-minded people. But I was the main driving force. Further - the next five years, only improvements. Nothing new. In the end, I began to worry - I realized that time was passing, I was standing still, there was no progress, no development. All conversations with management led to nothing. In words - yes, we will move, we will change. In business, everything is still the same. Time worked against me. I left. He left for new knowledge, skills, abilities. I thought so at the time. I left with mixed feelings - like from my own home. The people with whom I worked so much together were dearer to me than many relatives. The management encouraged me to stay. Offered good money. They must have had plans for me. But I still left. Gone into the unknown.

Since 2009, he has already changed 2 jobs. I don't like anywhere. 1st - a joint Russian-Swedish company. On the one hand, there are many wonderful people with whom I still support good relationship on the other hand, leadership. Rudeness and outright exploitation. I worked there for a year and a half, gave up and left. I don't regret leaving this. 2nd (i.e. current) work - everything is sooooo complicated. On the one hand - a top company, a stable white salary, a highly professional, young team ( average age up to 30 years old), charged for the success of teamwork. There is something to learn. Very friendly atmosphere. On the other hand - almost a complete vacuum - I'm ashamed to say, but for all this time I have not found friends. There are a lot of people I meet every day and, practically, there are no contacts. Frankly, this is the most annoying thing. Perhaps the difference in the level of training, intelligence and age affects. I am now a cog in a big bureaucratic machine.

I have a paradoxical situation - chasing new technologies and knowledge, I crossed out my fifteen years of experience. It turns out that in those matters that I am now cooking, I am no more than a junior with the age of a retired programmer. Even worse, I feel like I'm taking someone else's place. Thinking about another job change. The inner voice stops - you need to change yourself, not the environment. But I can't change myself. Looking back, I see that I used to take on a lot, preferred teamwork - personal success. Now it's hitting me the other way.


IM 42 years old. Married. Daughter, 10 years old. I live and work in Moscow. I work as a programmer in a top IT company. Graduated from St. Petersburg Shipbuilding University in 1994. Born in Pskov in 1970.

Hello. I'm 27 years old and I've felt unwanted all my life. including parents. I've never had a relationship. at 27, I didn't even have a sexual experience. and, to be honest, I have already measured myself and I think that it will always be like this. The guys never looked after me, no one sought. maximum I liked, like dozens of other girls at the same time. before, if the guys showed attention, I invested more in the development of relationships. something she came up with. ended up being alone. the guy loved the other, and I was as a vest. or met in parallel with someone else. recent years 2 I generally excluded guys from my life. I have learned to live without them. I'm tired of being used forever. Moreover, if I do not like to communicate, I stop communication. I couldn't afford this before. I like myself. I live, I travel, I read books. I don't understand why this is the situation.
second problem. I have a sister. since adolescence, all I hear is how friends of parents and parents praise only my sister. what a beauty she is. like I don't exist. it's a shame. I consider myself beautiful. I don't understand why my sister is better than me. but against this background, I lose confidence in myself. When I live alone, I feel much better. self-esteem rises. It turns out that in order to feel good, I need not to see any of them. I exclude them just as much as the guys who don't like me. but the very thought oppresses me that I am good only when she is not around. If she shows up, I'll be a schmuck that no one cares about. it was a matter of guys seeing her switched to her. so I think so. sometimes, when we sleep in a room, parents only look at it as they pass. I have already begun to bury myself in a blanket so that I can’t be seen at all. like I'm not there. it doesn't seem so embarrassing. I don't have breakfast/lunch with them. I am not in the same room when we are all together. I don't want to be compared and hear how beautiful she is. I have an inferiority complex. I don't go anywhere with them. I don't want it for her birthday. I am moving away from my family. not to feel pain. I'm pretty on the outside. maybe not as noticeable as my sister (due to her height and figure, she stands out) but I don’t want to be a shadow. I take care of myself. pretty. but I feel like nobody needs me. how to deal with it? this feeling doesn't leave me
I am short. Maybe height plays a role. sister on the shoulder.

Hello Lola!

You should relax - often, when a person lets go of the situation and stops wanting something too much, everything magically comes to him. In the book of Anna Prikhozhan "The Psychology of a Loser - Self-Confidence Training" there is practical exercises how to learn to say no. Only you don't just read them - you do them.

Wisdom to you and the right choice!

Hello Lola. It's good that you wrote about your situation and boldly shared your thoughts and feelings, albeit anonymously, but this is one of those important steps towards your desired state.

You lack recognition from your parents... did you tell them about it? Did you tell them that you want to be praised like your sister? Or talked about your feelings with them? The point is not only that they will answer you, the main thing is that you say this, you will become much clearer about your attitude towards them and towards yourself. I think it will be exactly what is connected with your need for what you can get or not get, while remaining satisfied with everything that surrounds you, as new opportunities for seeing the situation will open before you, your world will become larger and your choice accordingly!

You write about a problem in relationships with guys and that the second problem is your sister ... if you talk like that, then you can be offended by almost anything and for anything, you understand that your sister is not to blame for being praised. Second - You will be fine with guys when you allow yourself to make a choice and remember that you should not judge everything and everyone only by bad experience. Experience is what experience is for, in order to learn from the past, making the necessary actions and choices in the present, for a happier future.

-Hey
-How are you?
-Till
I am a secondary student, I don’t like school, I thought about what I would do in life, but I can’t decide, even approximately. I also have a complex about my appearance, I don’t seem to be ugly, but I have a complex. I don't see any particular advantages. In general, I feel that it will not be easy for me in this life.

Nikita, hello! Do not worry, the psychologist has started working with you and will definitely answer as soon as the opportunity arises)

Gimbarr, what about your appearance makes you feel insecure? Why did you quit boxing?

You didn't answer all my questions, for example, about what your parents do.

Can you describe your typical day? When do you wake up?.. Who wakes you up? Or maybe you get up yourself? Do they serve you breakfast? How much time do you spend at school? What do you do after class? How are the evenings in your family? Tell us more about your father and mother, what are they like? What are their characters? Which parent do you look more like? Do you have grandparents? Do you communicate with them? Who in your family loves you the most, in your opinion?

Can you write your happiest childhood memory? What period is it from? Before school? Junior classes? High school?..

I also ask you to write two more of any most memorable childhood memories.

I need to know more about you in order to understand how I can help you.

A feeling of insecurity causes short stature, a face. I quit boxing because I was just tired of it, the desire to walk disappeared, I don’t even know why. Mom does not work, and dad is a car mechanic. I wake up at 11 o'clock, I get up by myself, I never have breakfast, I spend 7 hours at school. After school, I usually play computer games and occasionally ride a bike. In the evening I sit in my room and my parents in theirs. Mom is very impulsive, sometimes very kind, and sometimes very angry, dad is strict, but fair, in my opinion, I'm more like my mother. Only 1 grandmother remained, I see her very rarely, maybe. I don’t really like her, because she treats me like a 5-year-old lisp and so on. I feel like my mom loves me more. The happiest event was that they bought me a dog, I was 12 years old then, I was also happy when I first went to boxing, when I was little, my family and I often went to the sea, and this always made me very happy.

Gimbarr

Nikita, who do you look like in the family? Are the men in your family the same height as you or different from you? Did I understand correctly that you have no brothers and sisters?

You wrote that you wake up at 11 and never have breakfast. Is it customary in your family to eat together? Your mother is a housewife, I understand. Does she cook well? Do you and your parents gather at a common table in the evenings, on weekends? How does your family spend the holidays? Do you go somewhere together?

How would you describe the relationship between your parents? They love each other? Are there conflicts? You wrote that mom can be very kind or very angry. Can you give an example of both?

Do you still have the dog you were given for 12 years? If so, tell us more about her, please: what breed is she, gender, what does she look like, how do you spend time with her?

About your passion for boxing: how many years did you go to it? What worked? What success has been achieved? Have you been to competitions, fought for victories? Did you have a specific trainer? How was your relationship with him? When you attended boxing, did you have any relationship with any of your fellow sportsmen?

Of all the people with whom you had to communicate in your life, to whom did you have the warmest feelings? You can also write about three people in your life, which made the greatest impression on you? It can be your friends or just famous people about which you have heard them read.

Outwardly, I look more like dad, my character is like mom, I don’t have brothers and sisters, I never wanted to, I just hate children, I don’t know why, but they are disgusting. It is customary for us to have dinner together, but I prefer to retire to my room and have dinner there. Mom cooks very tasty, we spend the holidays in the family circle, in the summer my parents and their friends go fishing every weekend, and I stay at home, because I feel uncomfortable in the company of other people. Relations with the parent seem to be good, they quarrel about once a month and after a couple of days everything is fine again. Mom can tell me how much she loves me, but in a minute she can yell at me because of a trifle, for example, I didn’t make the bed. Yes, I still have a dog, the breed of that terrier, a boy, his name is Kuzya, he is small and red, I spend time like other people, I play with him, walk, feed him.
I started going to boxing in 2010 because I was offended at school, it turned out pretty well, I went to competitions, I have medals, certificates and 2 cups. I took first place 3 times in my city and 2 times 3rd place in the country and many more different places, I really liked going to it, but then the spark seemed to disappear, I just lost the desire to go to it. My coach was stern but very good, he explained everything in detail and I almost immediately began to succeed, I had no relations with my comrades, we could just say hello, but no more. No one has ever impressed me, I am neutral towards other people, I just do not pay attention to anything.

Gimbarr

Gimbarr, how did your parents react to the fact that you left boxing? Did the coach try to influence your decision?

What class are you currently graduating from? Do you have exams or are you already on vacation? What subjects are best in studies?

You mentioned that your father is an auto mechanic. Has he ever shown you any of his work? Are you interested in machines or other mechanisms at all? Do you like to understand devices, to make something?

How did your passion for cycling start in your life?

You wrote in the first post that you have social phobia. Did you decide this yourself or did someone tell you about it? As a child, as you mentioned, you went to the sea with your parents, and you always liked it. Until what age did you travel like this? Did you play with peers there? What do you remember from that period?

Mom and the latter asked him not to quit boxing, dad too, the coach didn’t give a damn. I finished the 10th grade, now it's a vacation, no subjects are given to me easier than others, they are all the same for me. Dad sometimes drags me into the garage and I help him, but I'm not interested at all. I liked tinkering until the age of 12, I constantly carved something out of wood, made various crafts, but then it all went away. One day I was on YouTube and saw guys riding stunt bikes, I liked it and I asked my parents to buy me such a bike, I have been riding for 3 years, but there is almost no success. I myself decided on the account of social phobia, since I constantly feel uncomfortable around other people, I am constantly embarrassed to say something to people, even when I am in the store it is not convenient for me to talk with the seller. The trips were up to 12 years old, then everything stopped, I don’t know why, but we stopped going there, we constantly rented the same house, there was a boy Sasha next door, we sometimes crossed paths and walked with him, but it seems to me that he walked with me from hopelessness, since there were no other boys nearby. There are no special memories from that period, I just remember that I played in the sand, swam and sometimes, very rarely, played outdoor games with Sasha.

Gimbarr

Gimbarr, can you remember the moment when you decided that you didn't want to go to boxing anymore? How did it happen? You woke up one day and suddenly realized that you were not interested? Quit right away? Or did it happen gradually, and each time it was less and less enjoyable? Was there an event that caused your loss of interest?

You haven't boxed in about a year, right? How would you say yourself: did you leave at the peak of your form, or after you felt that it was getting worse?

Did you know about stunt bikes even before you left boxing? Are you trying to learn tricks yourself? Have you tried looking for communities of interest, for example, on the Internet? Do you know places in your city where guys with the same bikes train?

If you have no preference for subjects at school, how would you rate your level of preparation, for example, in mathematics? You will soon take the exam, how ready do you feel for it? Which subjects do you think would be easier for you to pass?

You have a good level of literacy, judging by your texts, while you say that you do not read. Usually, people who did not read as children do not have a very good command of the language. But you can't say that about you. Maybe you have read before?

Do you listen to music? If yes, which one do you like more? Do you love cinema?

I quit boxing for about a month, there was a regular training, suddenly I just realized that I didn’t want to walk anymore, nothing happened in my life, I just lost interest in walking. I left at the peak of my form, everything worked out for me, I won prizes, everything was great, I don’t know why, but I left. They bought me a bike when I was still not training, I watched a lot of training videos, communities and other things. There is a park in the city specifically for such bikes, but I can’t go there, there are other guys there, I can’t communicate with them, I feel uncomfortable, I would rather ride myself than be in the park with other guys. I feel not ready for the exam, I think that it will be easier for me to pass the Russian language and mathematics. I really never read, literacy probably from school. I listen to different music: from Russian rock to foreign electronic.

It doesn't matter where you feel left out (at a party, at a meeting, or at school), it's hard to come to terms with feeling rejected. It is difficult for everyone to bear the feeling of their uselessness. Scientists have found that feeling rejected by society affects the same area of ​​the brain as physical pain. It's not easy to be superfluous, but there are ways to deal with this feeling. You should learn to deal with this feeling, develop relationships with people and learn more about social rejection.

Steps

How to deal with feelings

    Accept yourself and the situation. People with low self-esteem react extremely painfully to the rejection of communication. If you learn to accept yourself as you are, you will be able to increase self-esteem and reduce the degree of influence of emotions.

    • Self-acceptance is possible if you are not afraid to assess your strengths and weaknesses and accept everything that you have without trying to change yourself instantly.
    • Tell yourself this: "I accept myself. I was unwanted, but that's okay. I'm ready to accept what happened. I can survive it."
  1. Think about the positives of the current situation. If you think about positive aspects situation, it will be easier for you to survive rejection. Perhaps you have skills that have allowed you to understand that you are considered superfluous. People who can read between the lines will quickly realize that they are not needed. Thanks to this, such people are able to recognize fake smiles and simulated joy. In addition, there is an opinion that rejected people become more creative because of the feeling of being different from others.

    • Analyze all aspects of the situation and make a list of pros. Perhaps because of loneliness, you spend more time alone with yourself, and this allows you to understand which people are worth continuing to communicate with and which ones cannot be trusted.
  2. Stop thinking bad about yourself. Feeling unwanted often gives rise to negative thoughts like "no one loves me" or "I'm not good enough." Such thoughts lead to harmful emotions such as shame and humiliation. To get rid of negative thoughts, learn to look at yourself more realistically and think positively.

    • Analyze your thoughts and change them to positive ones. For example, if you feel like no one likes you, tell yourself something more realistic: "Some people like me, but this person didn't. It's okay, I don't I have to please everyone. I still remain a good and important person. "
  3. Develop defense mechanisms in yourself. People who are able to protect themselves are better at handling rejection. Their levels of cortisol (stress hormone) are lower even in difficult situations.

    Pay attention to what you are thinking. If you have self-doubt or low self-esteem (you constantly feel bad about yourself), start controlling what you pay attention to.

    • Stop thinking about being rejected and start thinking about school, work, or other things.
    • Do something to distract yourself from unpleasant thoughts. You can play sports or go shopping.
    • Try to think about the strong relationships you have and let go of people who ignore you or treat you badly.

    Working on positive relationships

    1. Analyze your behavior. Perhaps some of your actions contributed to the current situation? For example, scientists have found that children who are rejected by their peers find it harder to communicate with other children (for example, start a conversation), to fight back in response to provocations (in cases where someone does something to piss off a child, for example, throws a paper folded into a ball at him) and deal with failures.

      Don't expect rejection from others. If you constantly think that you will be superfluous, you will behave in such a way that people will not want to communicate with you (for example, you will refuse to communicate yourself or act nervously). This phenomenon is called self-suggested prediction.

      • You should not say to yourself like this: "They will not invite me, I know for sure." It is better to formulate the thought differently: "I do not know how they will behave, but I will be satisfied with any option."
    2. Think of yourself. If you learn to think about yourself, accept and love yourself, it will be easier for others to do the same. If you are confident in yourself, it shows in your behavior.

      Hang out with nice people more often. Meet new people and develop relationships with friends who support you. People who ignore you are not worthy of your company, and they will certainly treat you badly in the future.

      • Tell someone you trust about your feelings. Talking about emotions in a calm and safe environment is completely normal. Perhaps a close friend or family member can stand up for you if someone treats you unfairly. It is important to have allies who care about your well-being.
      • Surround yourself with people you have confidence in and who won't leave you.
      • Get close to people who do not offend or oppress others, as they are unlikely to behave differently towards you.
      • It can be helpful to talk to people who are in the same situation as you. This will help you get closer.
      • If you continue to have problems with peers, talk to school psychologist or administrator. Ask how you can resolve the conflict.

    Reasons for rejection by society

    1. Determine possible reasons society's rejection of you. Understanding the reasons will allow you to set goals for yourself and begin to fight unwanted thoughts and feelings. Analyze possible reasons for feeling unwanted.

    2. Think about feeling rejected. There are two types of social rejection. In the first case, the rejection is hidden. For example, a friend doesn't invite you to a party. In the second case, the rejection is expressed openly, that is, the same friend himself tells you that you are not invited.

      • Think about the reason for your feelings. For example, you may worry that your friends went somewhere together and did not invite you. Look at the situation differently. Maybe your friend wanted to invite you but forgot? Before jumping to conclusions, find out the whole truth.
    3. Be aware of the negative consequences of feeling unwanted. If you know how feeling unwanted affects your physical and mental state, it will be easier for you to change for the better. People who are rejected by others, refusing to work or communicate with them, have a significant increase in the level of cortisol in the blood, which indicates severe stress. In addition, such a person becomes prone to inflammatory processes. Stress caused by communication problems can trigger inflammation. Feelings of worthlessness also cause depression and aggressive behavior in relation to others. People who feel rejected also spend more money than they should.

      • Think about what happens to you when you feel abandoned. Are you upset? Are you worried? Are you acting aggressive?
    • If you and your friends weren't invited to the party, find something else to do. If everyone talks about the party, you can tell what you did.
    • Don't let others upset you. If these people's strongest weapon is rejection of you, it means that they have very little power.
    • If you feel abandoned, tell your friends about it. If that doesn't change anything, find yourself another company.
    • On the day of the party, try to occupy your thoughts with something else. Visit friends or relatives or host your own party!
    • If someone doesn't want to invite you, don't waste your time on that person. Think of something else to do so you don't have to think about anything.

    Warnings

    • A minus times a minus does not make a plus. Don't reject a person if you suddenly become popular. You know what it is!
