I say that because I can look back at my life starting at about high school and see these looooooong lows, and then gradually these looooooooong highs, that eventually peak and then crash, and then another loooooooooooong low... Etc... This is how I explain repeatedly getting the impulse to completely tare my life down. Dunno if that resonates, but I feel ya... And building back is so hard. Don't think I could do it again.

Yep. Yes, that totally resonates. I'm building back right now. It's [past couple years] all gotten me to where I am now. Which is really just kind of like having 20/20 vision. Or wearing glasses that are so sharp they hurt your eyes. I'm adjusting, but yeah, it's real painful at times. I like to think I'm better equipped to deal now, because I know things can always be worse. Definitely know that now, and I'd like that to not happen. My confidence is the most important thing to me right now in my process. Learning to trust myself, and HOW to.
