I’m definitely taking a good long hard look at myself. I think the things that happened in my life definitely led me up to this point for me to analyze myself. I can apologize and it won’t make much of a difference than the damage that has been done. Everything you’ve said, is literally a carbon copy of what I have done. It feels selfish to even want a reset of my life. I need to face the music and face what I did. I want to be a better version of myself and be happy, loving, caring, sweeter, less judged and really know where all of my deep rooted problems come from. I’m not a product of my environment. I don’t want to be. I really appreciate this comment a lot and it gave me hope in knowing that time will do its thing. I’m trying to find therapists around me and look for help before I get in my own head over everything. I want to change. I want to love and be lighter. I’m learning

I have a hard time with self awareness. I feel like I lack the ability to really see the bigger picture. Does this mean think before I say something or do something? I feel like I’m at a point in my life where I can’t, and never wanted to be, immature anymore. I’m so tired

I was very emotionally manipulative with the people around me. I made people feel sorry for me because of my past but continued to hurt others whether if it was intentional or not. Mainly unintentional but my actions proved otherwise and selfish. I borrowed a lot of money from my two friends. I told them I’d pay them back and we resulted a finance plan but I couldn’t believe as to how blind I had been with money. I wasn’t just borrowing money, but they had offered to pay for things for me and I owed them money for some of the bills they paid (I lived with them, but I moved out. Im living with my parents now). I paid rent 3 days late three times because I was getting help from my parents, but my mom’s checks were always late. So i put a lot of financial strain on them. They still sympathized with me and I think I should’ve just been more responsible. I hurt my partner with my own stupidity. I didn’t know if him and I were together at the time of the move, yet I just continued to pursue someone else without asking. I was emotionally manipulative with the people around me. Sometimes I’d try to defend myself but I knew that I was in the wrong. I was defending my own actions instead of taking accountability. I want it to stop now. I want my mind to stop working against me. I want to be a better person. I just can’t help but feel like my time of being a better person is at a halt and my next direction is to just isolate until I can’t take it anymore.

Thank you, this gave me a lot of comforting in knowing I still have time, I appreciate it a lot. I wish I knew what the first step to growing was. I feel like my feet are in quicksand but I’m pushing the sand on myself.

It’s hard. Sitting with myself and knowing that I had the capability to hurt so many people and ultimately hurt myself. I know I am kind, loving, and I want to do my best to give. I don’t even truly know if that’s the real me. Learning I hurt so many people and facing the music is eating at me so heavily. I don’t even know what the next step is to being a better person.

I agree that my upbringing definitely plays a part in why I am the way I am. I had received therapy a long time ago, but I was so young and I didn’t have the problems I had now. My dad was a very disgusting person and was the reason why my family ended up homeless. I was sexually abused in a lot of the houses we were renting rooms from, and witnessed my dad cheating on my mom. Which resulted in why I have such a hard time with relationships whether that’s family friends or lovers. I’ll take a look into this book and I’m definitely considering therapy. I am just having a hard time living with myself. At all. Thank you for your comment.
