You do seem very hard on yourself, though, and you seem to hate yourself. Please don't call yourself a failure, or that you deserve to starve. That doesn't do you, or anyone, any good. Guilt is a useless emotion, without action. You'll only be able make truly positive changes in your life once you start to change your own view of yourself. You CAN do things. You ARE good enough. Love yourself, and you'll gain the strength to change old habits and turn your situation around. Check out the video in my signature- it's really helped me out, when I've listened to it as often as possible. Just keep swimming.  |
My guilt seems to be chronic, I don't know what life would be like without it.':/
And there's a difference between me and other posters here - I was never in the workforce to begin with. I've never had a job except a temp position given to me by a youth work program, that ended in December. I feel like that's my problem, no experience. I'm starting to think I should fond the most legit work-from-home scheme I can and sign up as soon as I get my own apartment, provided this one doesn't have rules against it. At least maybe I could put that on my resume to "show initiative".
