I can identify.

My house is a wreck, partly because I'm a poor housekeeper and partly because there are repairs that need to be done that I can't afford. Sometimes I start thinking I'm a wreck because my house is a wreck. I have to remind myself that I'm not my house. We're separate. My house could completely crumble to the ground, and I'd still be fine.

It's easy to confuse our circumstances with ourselves, but we aren't our circumstances.

For what it's worth, you don't seem like a wreck to me.
