I don’t think I can ever go back to that feeling of pride when I was able to accomplish something, even the littlest of tasks. I am at that point where all I see are my incapabilities. Seeing someone sneer at you for saying something wrong, being corrected by colleagues in front of staffs or superiors, there are days I want to go back to that innocent feeling of accomplishment.
For you, who still have not reached such point, be lenient to yourself. Treat yourself to a 10 minute rest for a simple accomplishment. Rest, after a hard one. Understand that there are days you’ll feel bad and alone and inadequate, but there are also days when you feel light and happy and productive, and those are the days that truly matter.
But if you are same as me, brace yourself. Sinking into the abyss of self doubt and feeling the lack of self worth is a deep one to rise up to just for a breath of assurance that you still can get through. Your friends and family will help you through. But most importantly, you have you. There’s nowhere else to turn to first but to believe in yourself because eveything will eventually be okay. You’re a strong one, you’re a fighter, you will be okay.
