How did you dig yourself at of a hole?
Hey I’m F26 and all I can say is my life is an absolute mess. I feel like I’m trapped in a hole that I can’t seem to dig myself out of. My room is a mess. It takes me a month to do and put away any sort of laundry. Nothing is organized. I’m trying to paint a picture but I’m overwhelmed from even trying to do that.
The hardest part I find is when I try to start something I seem to get so overwhelmed by all the steps I immediately shut down. There’s to much and even the smallest part I can’t seem to tackle.
I also have absolute no self esteem. When I look at myself in a mirror all I can see is a very unattractive goblin.
I feel so lost and I’m constantly stuck in my negative mindset. I have even gone to YouTube to look at videos on how to be positive. I just can’t seem to do anything that is good for me. I feel like an absolute shell of a person.
I’m also a starting a new job which is great money but it’s very hard. When I’m doing it, I can not get stuck in my own head but that’s so hard for me. I just feel so lost. Any advice or encouragement would be so appreciated. I feel like a lost cause at this point but I don’t want to be one. In all of this at least I can say that I’m trying and part of me wants to hope. I want to be better. I really do.
