Do you struggle with feeling like you don't matter or belong? Many people I work with feel as though there is something wrong with them - I'm not good enough, I'm inadequate, I'm unworthy. Feeling inadequate is a normal part of being human, but many of us learn to cope with these feelings by either doing everything we can to prove we are enough, or by desperately taking the edge off these feelings. These ways of coping can show up in behaviors like rumination and worry, substance misuse, impulsivity, restriction or bingeing, and more. All the while, we feel like we're missing out on the life we truly want to live.(Paul Holmes C-DBT)
