No More Self-Sabotage ❤️🔥
🕑 Added 2023-04-23 11:16:43 +0000 UTCIt’s Sunday.
So, you might be feeling that sinking pit in your stomach, sometimes known as quiet dread. Me too. Every Sunday. Every single one. I scream internally. “Fuck. I’m gonna screw it up again. I’m so shit at life. Fuck me! Fucking fucking fuck!”
If you’re feeling what I’m feeling, you’re not alone. I don‘t think I’ll ever accurately articulate how fucking incapable I feel on a daily basis. Underneath the positivity I try to cultivate and put out into the world, there is a self-sabotaging self-pitying little troll who kinda just wants me to fail.
I don’t know if they’ll always be there, but I’m just gonna have to learn to keep going despite the barrage of ”you suck”.
And yes, sometimes I do suck, we all do. We all fail, we can all act like babies, we can all get it wrong.
But that doesn’t mean we should become nihilistic little hate pools who don’t try.
So, I’m just letting you know that I’m gonna try to be an active contender in my life. I’m gonna try and see it as “I’m trying in spite of how I feel“, instead of “I just feel shit and incapable, therefore I am shit and incapable”. Nope, that’s just how you feel. Feelings don’t always equate to facts.
I encourage you, whoever you are, to be active in your life. If you feel out of control, take it back, slowly, one piece at a time. If you don’t like yourself, examine that, finds areas you can change, even improve.
Do not sit in the misery. Do things.
I’m sorry life is scary. I don’t know you, I’m probably never gonna know your name or you mine, but I want you to try and I want you to show up for yourself ❤️

This is super powerful, and super real - thank you for sharing it. <3 Something I try to remember often is that just because I can't do everything, or fix everything, doesn't mean I shouldn't do ANYTHING, or at least do what I can. I try to live by that, you know? Thank you so much.

Thank you Tea I almost Self-Sabotage myself today just like I did every day for the last 4 months. In my case I used to be a hard work, on some levels I still am. But of late I can't find the energy to work on my project, like I did when I was younger. When I read your post I final got the energy or will to at least work on one of my projects. I know you may never read this as this post is late, But I wish it to be part of the public record that you helped me today.

I feel the exact same every Sunday. Thanks for your words of encouragement.

I've long been in the habit of using my Sunday's for my weekly errands. Fill my car with gas, right to the top. Groceries for the week. Visit any stores I need to for things so I'm not rushing to them after work. etc. I find I have a lot more peace of mind over the week because when it's home time from work I don't need to stop anywhere.

As always thanks Tea for posting POP to help us and trying to make us feel better. I hope that you and everyone will feel better.

Some days I feel like crap about myself and feel unable to keep going with life, but then there are other days where I feel like the baddest bitch in the world! I've been working on improving things that honestly don't do me any good, and it's honestly an overwhelming process, but it's worth it and partly thanks to you, Tea.

I'm sorry you feel that way about yourself. I do feel like I fuck up,I often think I did something horribly wrong, what I made isn't good enough or people secretly think I'm the worst. When it comes to socializing I'm so reserved yet I still think I'm being awkward. It does eventually go away though.

Recall your victories, however small. They are real and should not be ignored. You are demonstrably capable, keep doing what you already know you're doing well. Everyone should remember that. I wonder how many of us just never got enough praise as kids. Good luck y'all.
