Bit weird but I coped today by remembering a version of myself I aspire to be,

sometimes. I saw someone in the library yesterday, around my age, and I felt

inspired by their general attitude (that I was projecting onto this unwitting

stranger). It's an aspect of myself that I let get pushed under and then I can get

a great sense of inadequacy and inferiority which is unnecessary because I'm

okay, just as I am.

Tldr: yesterday I had a terrible day feeling very inadequate, hopeless and down on myself and saw a reflection of myself in another person which I used today to cope.
