The French international has been left out of the Guy Lacombe's squad for the fourth consecutive time, leaving the player - who featured at this summer's World Cup - rather frustrated, but determined to win his place back.
"I'm completely demoralised," the former AC Milan player told French daily L'Equipe. "I don't understand why they pay me so much just to play for the reserves.
"It's out of the question that I give up," he continued. "I'm going to continue to prepare myself to play.
"I love PSG, who rejected an approach for me from Bolton this summer, and want to stay and fight for them on the pitch.
"I'm fit. I don't see why, on the day of the Marseille match, (assistant coach) Eric Blahic came to see me and told me that the coaching staff were happy with me and my efforts, only to send me to play in the reserves three days later.
"I feel humiliated."
"I DON'T UNDERSTAND"
Dhorasoo returned from Germany at the start of the season having picked up a runners-up medal for France in the World Cup, although his contributions were limited due to tough competition in the centre of les Bleus' midfield.
Nevertheless, the 32-year-old was sure he was in good condition to play a part for PSG this year.
"I don't understand what's happened to me, that's the problem," Dhorasoo said.
"I came back full of good intentions and highly motivated and I showed that. That they don't think I'm good I understand, but it seems that I've been left out for other reasons.
"But I'm a PSG player until the end of my contract. I'm not a quitter, I'm a fighter."
