I’ve lived most of my life being broken. I’m 49 and for as long as I can remember I’ve never felt like I am enough.

Hey there,

Thanks for sharing this, your comment gave me shivers. Self Worth and feelings of not being enough are something that I have lived with for a long time, something so painful in the depth of my being that I just wanted to go away for so long.

I’m not sure what you have been through in your life, but I just want to say that I see you, I feel you, and I am here with you, and no matter what your past looks like, you deserve to feel whole, to feel like you are worthy.

The feelings of being broken, of worthlessness, and hopelessness are the tip of the iceberg, and beneath those emotions there is a whole world to be explored. I made the choice about a year ago to dive into my darkness, to get curious about these feelings and a year later I can say that I still have my days where the emptiness knocks on my door, but that things have gotten so much better. There is hope, and healing is possible.

If you feel like exploring this anymore, know that I would love to be here to listen and help support you where I can.

Hey friend,
I’d just like to start this by saying YOU ARE ENOUGH!!
I completely understand feelings of never being as good enough. I’ve struggled with feelings like this myself, feeling like I’m never living up to others expectations for me. But something I learned is that you shouldn’t let others set expectations for you, the only person that should do that is yourself. You need to meet yourself where you’re at, and then what you are now will be enough. Then you can set goals and strive for more on your own terms and nobody else’s!!

I’m very thankful that you spoke up and reached out, it’s never an easy thing to do, especially with this kind of topic. I will be praying for you!
