Lately Iā€™ve been feeling empty. Sure, I do laugh at times cry without reason but this empty feeling lingers inside me? I canā€™t find joy in things that I used to love to doā€¦ Like drawing, reading and watching anime. And I started to hate myself for not doing anything, I canā€™t keep up with my academic works or sleep schedules. Moreover, Iā€™m annoyed that Iā€™m being this hard on myself but how much I try I canā€™t break from thia feeling of self hatred. I started to envy my friends who could love themselves as a piece of cake. I used to love myself too and I kind of still do but I canā€™t really feel anything? And seeing them doing it with ease makes me feel bitter and I hate that Iā€™m feeling like that when Iā€™m supposed to be happy for them. I canā€™t even look myself in the mirror for a little longer because of the self criticising voice. Iā€™m aware of those thoughts and I know they are not helping me at all, but Iā€™m losing my control over them. I really want to feel something nice for a while because I feel like my crappy attitude will spread to others and make them sad (which I donā€™t want to). I talk to my friends and we are really close but I canā€™t bring myself to talk about this to them, because it has nothing to do with them, I should be the one to deal with these thoughts, sure they could support me and help me but I donā€™t knowā€¦ They got issues of their own, I donā€™t want to be a burden to them.
I feel like Iā€™ve been too emotional at timesā€¦ Like for today my friends teased me for something silly, I pretended to laugh and joke about it too with them because no one likes it when someone takes a joke too seriously right? But it still kinda hurtā€¦ In a way? (I did tell this to my friend later and she was really sweet and nice to me, Iā€™m thankful for that) but I still feel kinda humiliated? More like embarrassed? Idkā€¦ I know I donā€™t have much of self respect or self love since my therapist already pointed that out in our last sessionšŸ˜… but I wanted to work on thatā€¦ But I feel more ashamed that I just stood there and did nothing for myself because Iā€™m too much of a people pleaser. I hate that. And i know that hatred might spread to other and I really donā€™t want to hate anyone. I donā€™t know where to begin , on working myselfā€¦ I feel lost.
