Do you ever feel like a disappointment?
A bit of a more serious thread for our Sunday night.
Do you ever feel like a disappointment to; To your family? Your friends Significant other? Other people you care about? Just a little background. I would consider myself to be at least somewhat successful in life. I graduated high school, got my Bachelor's degree, and I make a positive impact on people's lives each day. I would say that I'm generally a good person. I help people when I can. I treat all people I interact with kindness. Am I perfect? No. But who is? I've been having this nagging feeling that I'm not good enough for the people around me. It's not a fun feeling. Anyone else experience anything like this? |

Do I ever feel like a disappointment to myself? Surely. On a routine basis. But I try to learn and grow from it then move on.
Do I feel like I'm disappointment to others? Only if I have specifically let someone down. Otherwise, **** 'em, they aren't perfect either.

That’s probably a normal for even the most successful people. You can try your best, but you can’t be perfect at everything or please everyone. Just do your best and be decent to people, unless they’re donkey fans.

A healthy dose, though. If you are feeling this way too often, something is skewed. You may be able to straighten out priorities on your own through things like discussing here or with friends how you are doing, or you may need to discuss it with a professional through therapy, but you don't want to let it get out of control. Is there one small thing you could do tonight/tomorrow/this week to help in some way a relationship that is causing this nagging feeling? is there one small thing you could start this week to help in a more long-term manner? |

Sounds like some internal doubts and self esteem issues manifested externally with the ultimate goal of convincing yourself those around you are disappointed in you for no reason, hence the desire to take inventory of your accomplishments. Your logical conscious self is having a little squabble with intrusive unwanted subconscious feelings and doubts.

Ok, let's be real here.
You won't ever be the Rocky Statue, but that doesn't mean you're a failure by a long shot.

Every now and then I get a young Budtender that isn't very confident. I casually ask on a scale of 1-10 as a Budtender what would you rate yourself?
Invariably I get answers around 7. I tell them that's how you Budtend. Like you're pretty good but there's better options. Not terrible but cool. You need to move through life like the big titted blonde that has rarely heard the word no, that you are.
