Hello & Welcome, Argint Sekhem!

Several things are clear from your post.
  • You have excellent self-awareness; you understand your view of life is coloured by emotions.
  • You judge yourself far more harshly than situations and events warrant.
  • You are deeply insecure in yourself and judge yourself unworthy of love; you have low self-esteem.
  • You are irrationally tormented by the past.
  • You are prone to "catastrophizing" social encounters.

Eight years is a long time. Have you had the opportunity to explore your feelings and emotional reactions with a counsellor or therapist? Can you think of anything in your upbringing or in your life that possibly contributed to you viewing yourself so poorly?

Please keep posting.
