“There’s something wrong with me.” It doesn’t matter how good things get – these thoughts are always lurking in the back of your mind. All the good you do and all the positive things you achieve in your life are never enough for you to feel accomplished. The deeper you sink into these feelings, the more alienated you become. Life feels hopeless and you’re on the verge of resigning to living with that uneasy ball in the pit of your stomach. Your baseline is a constant state of emotional duck-and-cover. It’s exhausting. It’s discouraging. It’s isolating. And worst of all, you can’t seem to make it stop.
