hating myself

I'm starting to hate myself. For no real reason. I just don't like myself. I was doing so well. I got over a lot of my insecurities but now I'm starting to like myself again. I don't know whats wrong with me I just totally don't feel good enough. I just feel like a shitty person.

One cannot live in this world without being corrupted by some part of it and end up feeling this way. This is part of being human; we can't all be saints all of the time. Insecurity has always plagued me but in the end you just have to put things in their proper context and not let them consume you. I hope you are lifted soon from this self deprecating perspective, you seem quite pleasant and motivated in the forum here. You are human, you are good enough, we all have flaws but on the opposite we all have redeemable qualities. Focus on the good parts of who you are, work on what's left and accept that we all have our moments. :)

Allie,

You are 19
I'm 36

I also feel the way you do at times.

YOU will be ok.

I graduated college and am an RN. I know what it is like to not want to study.

Leave this site and do something else for a little bit, then come back.

Otherwise you will not be happy with yourself tomorrow.

Not feeling good already, no study, will make you feel worse.

Try to focus on small things at a time right now, as you are probably starting to go hypo-manic.

Get your book out, cover a small portion of a chapter. You gotta start small right now!!

Sorry to sound like such a boss, I guess it's the Mother in me coming out!!

You have a wonderful smile and sound like a very sweet, friendly person.

We all work daily on finding ways to channel our energy and ways of thinking to get through this disorder.

It is very hard when you are trying to go to school. BUT, if you get hooked on studying, increasing your knowledge you, this will help you tremendously. Studying became such an obsession for me.

Take care!!! Are you studying yet??
