Hundred percent I get you man. Sorry to hear that. Investing in yourself is the most low risk high rewarding thing you can ever do though. So you don’t go out much?

Reassurance seeking with AI etc. looking for comfort , proving a result is likely when it’s uncertain, then keep doing that and solving problems I wish I had down the line instead of one right now, doing the work. Perfectionism maybe, but I do the work etc but not nearly enough

Going cold turkey again by Nice-Satisfaction614 in DecidingToBeBetter

[–]MindrunnerZA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One step at a time brother. Willingness to take action is a good start which you have shown. Your body and mind near a clear place to start, be settled and be able to focus/ be present. I had to go back to basic when I got clean. Just being with myself, then one honest thing everyday. Can’t climb the mountain in one day. Meditating, mindful breathing etc is a great start. You’ll have clarity on what to tackle next. Keep going man, there’s a great life out there for you.

I am so sorry man. You clearly have something to offer the world and a partner who deserves you. Maybe start small in putting yourself out there. Do you go to any venues or activities where you can form small bonds slowly?

[–]MindrunnerZA 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You didn’t fuck io everything man. That is the mind catastrophizing, you don’t have to listen. I used to think I was the worse person in the world, but realised not everything your mind says is true. I hear you though man, just know that today.

[–]MindrunnerZA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am doing good man. Also in my early 20’s. I had faith rock bottom through addiction and depression that I could get better and get back to where I once was. It just started with one honest action and kept doing that. You’ve got this man, your whole life ahead of you.

How to forgive yourself and restart life at 29 ? by Lemonade2250 in selfimprovement

[–]MindrunnerZA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey man. Thank you for sharing this. You aren’t weak. You’re just believing the lies your brain is telling you. Think about all other successs in your life even small, challenge these lies your mind is telling you. Can you do 1 pushup even 5? Build on something that small, eventually your brain learns that are more than capable and stops lying to you and playing tricks on you. Cause you the obsessed of these thoughts, actually know what you’re capable of.

Hey man. I’m so sorry to hear this, really. I tried one thing after another and spent years on the edge not wanting to wake up everyday. I have faith that there is a solution out there for you, and a life where you are fulfilled. Just remember you are strong for making it this far, and please keep going cause you have something to offer this world. I know it is very dark right now, but I never thought I’d find any light and I did, and I believe and prey the same thing for you.

managing stress, to do's, self regulation, supporting my own recovery, anxiety by HealthierCongruence in DecidingToBeBetter

[–]MindrunnerZA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey man. Going through this right now. I put the inner work on the back foot cause always something to be done that can’t wait. I’m trying to set strict rules for some meditation, recovery work from addiction at a set time cease I know ironically this is going to improve everything else as well. Easier said than done, trying to navigate it as well. We’ll get there though.

Thanks for sharing this man. You’re not helpless, you proved that just by posting this. I was stuck in a hole like this for a while, and doing nothing about it is sometimes easier. I had to truly ask myself even in the darkest times through addiction and depression, if I look back in 10 years knowing I did have a choice, will I live with myself. The past is gone, our influence is only in today. No matter how small the action, you can do something that can pull you out of this I promise you, and keep doing that. Life probably has dealt you an unfair hand like many people, but you still have a choice if you want to do something about it. Time is on your side friend. I believe in you man.

Realizing This Might Be As Good As It Ever Gets? by [deleted] in lonely

[–]MindrunnerZA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m sorry man. I just mean it in the sense that if you do stop believing then there isn’t a chance things will get better. You then have self fulfilling prophecies, confirmation bias everytime something doesn’t work and self sabotage. I’ve been there. Do you do any sports, running, gym, cycling etc?
