Do you believe in yourself?

I don’t believe in myself. These words are the most honest words I could say. Why can’t I? Because my brain says I’m not good enough. Every time I see someone else doing what I love. What makes me special? My answer, nothing. The next most vulnerable words I could say is I’m scared, absolutely petrified living this life.

I wish I had someone in my life who loved me so much that I could just fall to pieces in front of them. Be completely raw and honest about how I’m feeling.

You must have had a traumatic childhood. The best way to start believing in yourself is to keep your word to yourself, and set some small goals, and accomplish them. The more you accomplish, and the more you keep your word to yourself, as in do what you say you’ll do, and become a person you can admire, then your self esteem will start to change. It takes time and work. Start with small steps.
