Sometimes I wonder if I’ll ever get to a point in my where I can accept myself as I am and start to enjoy life. I feel like I’m my own biggest obstacle. I try to find reasons I’m just not good enough .

I feel the same. I can relate but you gotta keep fighting no matter what. You are stronger than you think. Self love is something i hope i can learn to work on as my number #1 priority in my life at some point in the future. I need to get better. You need to get better, although you are enough. You deserve to be happy and love and accept yourself. It's because you are worth it and beautiful just the way you are. Your enough because all the unique things that make you, you, and the good intentions and good heart along with personality. Just be yourself. No one else can be like you or replace you. Try to think more positive (trust me i know that's hard). I'm glad i can call you a friend on this site. Glad i met you❤

I find that it is dangerous to use words like good enough because they are so vague. When I take the time to define what good enough means to me in concrete terms, then I have an attainable goal I can work towards instead of just a vague goal post that I can never reach that makes me feel bad about myself. For example, I used to feel bad about myself because I was really bad at making small talk. When I started working on my small talk skills and improving, I felt better about myself. It’s also important to recognize when you are bashing on yourself for no reason and differentiate that from when there is a skill you want to improve upon to improve how you view yourself. Hopefully that made some sense and you start feeling better.
