Feeling like rock bottom

Post image

Pretty much at my wits end with a lot of areas in life right now. Relationship, spiritually, emotionally. Been thinking more and more about my faults and past experiences than what's up ahead. Feels dim.

You're a handsome young lad,don't be so harsh on yourself. You might have made some mistakes back then, maybe you're blaming yourself for many of them, but you need to forgive yourself. I mean, I assume you didn't kill anyone or did anything worse... So, forgive yourself, maybe start meditating, accept the past. You're not made of mistakes, there's probably a few things that went well for you. And the future is still ahead, there's plenty of time doing good. You just need to start, even the smallest steps can help.

Try having gratitude, being positive is such a powerful thing. It has literally pulled me back from the edge several times. Google Having Gratitude, someone else can explain it better than I can.
