I have experienced those feelings; sometimes still do. A couple of memories of my mother often help me.
(1) When I was feeling this way as a child, she got me a pencil and a piece of paper with two columns; told me to list my blessings in one column and my troubles in the other. I soon gave up because my blessings were so many and great that they made my troubles seem so small by comparison.
(2) Another time, she advised me this way: "When you are downhearted and feeling; Oh, So Blue, just make somebody happy, and you'll be happy, too!"
Reminding myself of David's experiences in 1st Samuel Chapter 30 of the Bible helps me also. Especially the last part of verse 6.
"A friend in (a time of) need is a friend indeed." By helping people, whether or not they seem capable of reciprocating or showing gratitude, you're sowing seeds of kindness that are multiplying in the lives you touch. Some of those lives are already bearing the same kind of fruit, with the inevitable result that they are now sowing those good seeds into the lives of yet others.
We are sending our love, prayers and well-wishes in your behalf.
