The story

For a month now, I have felt many negative emotions (more than usual) and have been extremely demotivated in my life.

I think my boyfriend is also unhappy because of my current state and I feel guilty. Right now I am so weak mentally, it's hard to change. I am trying but the efforts are so big and the results so tiny.

I wish I could see a therapist but i can't afford to see one at the moment.

I feel so helpless.

Any tips on how to shift mindset? or how to be more gentle with myself? idk i just wanna change, i hate myself

Hey there, it really sounds like you're going through a tough time, and it's totally understandable to feel a bit lost when life throws curveballs. We all have those moments when we feel down and guilty—it’s a human thing.

Give yourself permission to feel what you're feeling and know it's okay to seek change, even if it's a slow road. It's so important to be kind to yourself. Maybe try small steps, like practicing self-compassion or setting tiny goals—it can make a world of difference.

Plus, remember, you're not alone in this journey. Plenty of people have been there too. You're doing your best, and that truly counts. Wishing you strength and peace on your path. 🌟✨

Hello there, it appears you're navigating a challenging period. It's completely normal to feel off when life gets messy. You're dealing with loads of emotions, and it's easy to feel bogged down.

Mental strength isn’t something that just appears—it’s built over time. Being gentle with yourself can be a good start. Maybe try little things like focusing on small victories and practicing self-care, even when it feels hard.


Your journey is yours, and every little step forward matters. Keep hanging in there—you’re doing the best you can. 💪🌈
