I believe the only losers in this world are the ones who allow themselves to be - either by simply deciding "yes, I am a loser and that's all I will ever be" and then giving up, or by never trying to be anything more in the first place. That's not to say depressed people are losers. We aren't. But we CAN allow ourselves to be if we so choose. We all have control of ourselves. It sounds to me like you have been doing very well. You are allowed some "down times". It's ok to disconnect for a day or two - as long as you pick back up with the fight after your "mini vacation" ❤
You are not a loser
You are just human
You have never CHOSEN to be a loser - but sometimes you need a rest. Give yourself permission. *hugs*
