I’ve improved so much over the years, so good job me. I used to not be able to accept a compliment even because that’s how low I thought of myself, but now I can and I smile a lot more so yay me and everyone who made that happen.

It’s amazing or scary how your self-worth interacts with every aspect of your life. If it’s not up to scratch, you find it very hard to accept or appreciate good things happening to you.

From compliments, to jobs, to relationships — mediocre/frustrating will feel more comfortable.

I've been struggling to accept my new and ever changing self, I'm relearning how to love and appreciate myself. Some days are harder than others and sometimes I feel like I just want to give up, but I persist. I love me

Don't show how you're down through yourself becauase of them, show them how you stand up alone to proof them that your not a type of person who accept painful things.

Maybe I wouldn't lock my door if you didn't always barge in without notice. Maybe I would have genuine motivation if you didn't constantly say and prove you dont trust me to do anything myself, let alone succeed with it. Maybe I fear failure because of what I associate with it

Maybe my inability to accept my identity stems from your inability to care for me. Maybe me always doing too many things is a product of your repeated reminders of how giving up makes me worthless. Maybe my self-hatred has roots in your clear hatred of me.

Maybe your disappointment in me comes from you not realizing that we are different. Maybe my desire to immediately separate myself from you once I'm able to has to do with my mental stability and feeling of security which are both far too uncommon than they should be.

7 ways to boost your confidence :

  • List your strengths
  • Accept your limitations
  • Learn to accept compliments
  • Practice positive self talk
  • Teach others how to treat you, by what you accept or allow
  • Try something new, even if it scares you
  • Let go of past failures

Accept that’s how you’re feeling, see if you can pinpoint what’s helping cause it (if anything) and give yourself a break.

No one can be healthy all the time and the world gives us enough shit without giving yourself a hard time, cry if you need or want to and self care.
