This is what he said
I am 32 years old, and I am currently in a stage of my life where I feel that I should have progressed a lot more than I have. There are moments in my life where I look back at and have profound regrets about the decisions I made and sometimes wish things were different. I have always struggled with believing in myself fully and have often not taken on new challenges due to not feeling adequate enough.
I have always had limiting beliefs bout myself and my capabilities and have often struggled to see the potential that other people see in me. I don’t know whether this has stemmed from my childhood or from my school years where I always felt I was constantly trying to prove myself to get recognition. I have always been a procrastinator and seem to always leave things until the last minute before I take any action. Sometimes not actioning them and hoping they’d go away. I seem to be like this in all areas of my life including personal, relationships, financial. I tend to bury my head in the sand and avoid as much as possible. Inevitably making the situation larger and worse.
I have struggled with being adequate and I tend to compare myself to people a lot, whether it be siblings, friends or just people in general. There seems to be a trend of not feeling good enough or feeling that there are other people in the world who’d be a better option or better at things than myself.
Throughout my childhood I was constantly trying to prove that I could ‘do’ things and that I was capable, I believe this stems from my father who always tried to make you feel as if you weren’t able, so I tried my upmost to prove him wrong.
At age 16 I left my family home and moved away until my mid-twenties, during that time I spent a lot of it recreationally drinking and drug taking. I never felt I was able to achieve anything, and my aspirations were very limited. I was quite content with my ‘little’ life but still felt unfulfilled. Maybe because others would say I have potential and I just didn’t know how to go about it or fully believed I did.
I have come to a point where I am gaining belief in myself and have a lot more of a positive outlook on life, however I deep down struggle to fully accept that I have worth and something to offer people and society.
This feeling of inadequacy spreads into all areas of my life especially relationships where I feel I am again trying to prove myself to a person and make them like/love me. I have recently overcome a very bad relationship with alcohol, and I am currently 10 months sober, this for me has been a massive achievement and gives me determination and optimism that I can achieve things if I want to.
I’d like to feel liberated in the future from the beliefs that have been holding me back, my lack of action towards things turn into action so that I am able to achieve the things that I want to and deep know I can do.
