Belongs to: Therapist reacts to Hope by NF
I feel like I’m always trying to hope, but I let my past trouble me too much. Idk how to let that go. I’ve done really wrong, and I was given another chance but I simply can’t let it go. So I destroy myself everyday trying to outwork everyone and be a better person.
Thank you for reaching out, friend.
It sounds like you’re carrying a lot of weight from your past, and I want you to know that it’s ok to feel overwhelmed by it sometimes.
The fact that you’re striving to be better shows how deeply you care and how much you value the second chance you’ve been given. But please know that beating yourself up daily isn’t the path to healing—it’s important to show yourself the same compassion you likely wish to give others and letting go of the past doesn’t mean forgetting or dismissing it; it means learning to forgive yourself so you can move forward.
You don’t have to outwork everyone to prove your worth—you’re already deserving of grace and growth just as you are.
Hello, I’m so sorry your going through this. It’s good that you wrote your thoughts and feelings as it can help unload emotional weight. I’m glad that you are trying to get better, it shows that you have a good heart.
Overcoming the past can be difficult, as our experiences and memories often stay with us. It’s okay to acknowledge the past, but please don’t stay in it. Healing is a progress and can take a while, please be compassionate with yourself. You deserve kindness as much as anyone else. Feel free to message us if you feel worried or stressed.
