hey, i’m really sorry you’re feeling like this. trying so hard and feeling like it’s never enough is one of the worst feelings. it’s like no matter how much you push, you’re stuck in the same spot, and that’s exhausting.
the fact that you’re fighting the urge to cut shows so much strength, even if it doesn’t feel like it right now. wanting to stop trying is okay to feel too — sometimes when everything is too much, all you want is a break.
confusion about yourself is normal, even if it sucks. you don’t have to have it all figured out right now. just taking it day by day is enough.
you don’t have to be perfect or “good enough” to deserve kindness — especially from yourself. being gentle with yourself is okay, even if it’s hard.
if you can, reach out to someone you trust. you don’t have to carry this alone. but even just being here and letting it out is a start.
