Do you have unrealistic expectations of yourself? Lord knows I did... it made me depressed for a long time knowing that I wasn't the man I dreamt to be, and probably never would be.
But eventually I accepted who I am... kind of. As best I could anyway. So I live with it and I'm much happier for it (or at least not constantly miserable like before!).
If that's your problem, it's REALLY HARD accepting that you're not who or where you want to be at this point in your life. So don't think you're behind if you're struggling with it. We're all big kids blindly feeling our way across a dark racetrack in the hopes of reaching some finish line that we're not even sure is there. If you're feeling lost, then you're on the right track and you're doing fine. Probably 50ft to my left or something... who knows? Just keep going. 😁👍️
