You wrote that you feel like a disappointment to everyone - I can identify with this but am doing my best to convince myself that it isn't true. I've always felt deep down that I should be able to do everything well and be successful, but looking at it logically no one could possibly live up to that. And as for feeling like an open wound - yes, that hits the nail the head all right. I've felt for a while that every time I think I'm healing a bit something happens to act like sandpaper on the wound and make it worse again.

But things do change, and bad times and thoughts do pass. I'm slightly less down than I was, and if it can happen to me it certainly can happen to you too. Hang on in there, and please don't give up.
