Blah

So I definitely have anxiety...a lot of it is social related. I have a fear of being disliked. I think it really gets me down sometimes. Today I had a breakdown partially because of all of the anxiety and I think it just makes me sad. Then I just felt very negative for the rest of the day. I worry a lot. I don't feel like I'm "enough". I feel like I am disappointing people and I wonder if people actually love me. I feel blah and I don't know how to snap out of it.

I know that I should work on loving myself and I shouldn't worry about what others think of me, but it is difficult! Any advice please?

I sometimes have similar thoughts, and I sometimes find that I feel better, actually, if I don't try to reassure myself or "fight" the thoughts. That doesn't mean you need to believe their content is true: thoughts are kind of random and out of your control most of the time. But it just means you try not to struggle so much against them. I'm still learning to do this myself, heh.

Try to resist the urge to fight, and you might find you feel better once some time passes.
