I Sometimes Feel Useless– Ama K. Abebrese Cries Out On Social Media
Actress and TV personality Ama K. Abrebrese took to Facebook to share a post just hours before her birthday, opening up about a decline in self-esteem and the emergence of an inferiority complex.
Recalling a moment when she was behind the wheel, she admitted that her emotions overwhelmed her due to a string of recent setbacks.
To lift her spirits, she reached out to a friend who provided motivation and reminded her of the positive impact she has on others, emphasizing her worthiness. See below for her full post sighted by Tru News Report.
“About a week ago, I was driving home from the supermarket and, for some reason, I felt very sad, unworthy and frankly very useless.
I have had a series of disappointments and things have not been going how I expect. Feeling vulnerable, I started crying and couldn’t stop.
I stopped the car, and got on the phone with someone (whom I am so thankful for for being there to listen to me without judgment); he said to me that with my accomplishments, if I feel unworthy, then something is wrong. In that moment, it hit me that sometimes, no matter how big or small our achievements are, how much loved and supported by our family and friends we just don’t feel that we are enough.
It can feel insignificant in those moments. After that encouraging phone call, I hanged up and managed to smile through my tears and drove home, feeling a bit better.
Fast forward one week on, and today is my birthday, and I feel such a sense of love and renewed sense of hope. It is a reminder that God indeed has a greater plan for all of us. There will be laughs and some tears at times, but we keep on marching on.
“For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.” – Jeremiah 29:11 KJV
I am filled with joy, blessings and gratitude. Now I’m gonna celebrate
