Nothing works

[jliv60]

What do you do when you feel like you’ve tried everything and nothing fixes you? I feel broken. I have everything I should need. The love of my life. A meaningful job. An awesome cat. But I still find myself hating and torturing myself for simply having the nerve to be alive. Why can’t I stop hating myself

I feel the same a lot of the time. I try so many things and it can feel like I’m just treading water. We just have to push through, keep trying until something makes a difference.

Just keep swimming 💙

In some cases such will take place when one has expected more then what they have received. We must be thankful for who we have as to what we receive in our lives. Our expectations shouldn’t be set to high standards. Plus don’t put pressure on yourself on trying to figure this all out. You should be very grateful. Try not to dwell on this matter. It will begin to fade away. In addition, in order to love yourself you must find that love within you. It may feel as if it is not there but it for sure is upon you. Find it and accept it. Always go for the better.

I understand all too well. I strongly dislike myself (that's an upgrade from hate). Because of this no matter what my circumstances are I don't feel content. We are meant to practice self compassion but it feels SO unnatural to me.
