Over a week later and, yet again, I find myself disappointed in myself. I don’t know what it is, guilt, bad self image, what? It seems that every time I do less than perfectly at anything I just want to crawl into a hole and give up. Every time I disappoint someone else, especially, I just seem to go into this fit of self loathing. I just want to run away and never have to disappoint anyone ever again! Stupid, I know, but I just feel so…, so…, horrible. As if I’m not worthy of anything anymore because I’ve managed to make a mistake. God I wish I could stop this reaction!
