Sophie,

I’m sorry for your suffering, and glad that things are looking up. Your info is very brief, so its tricky to aim. 🙂 Sometimes when we’ve been feeling crappy for a long time,such as low self esteem, low self worth, etc, we grab onto our accomplishments as proof we’re doing better. Then, when another “oops” rolls around, we lose that confidence.

To grow more stable, consider that your journey through life has failure and success, and both push you toward becoming all you can be. It is peaceful abiding that brings the nourishment we need, not success. Said differently, after the list of good things and bad things in your life gets set aside, there you are, learning and growing. Success, yay, growing. Failure, boo, growing. Keep breathing, keep alert, and the confidence you’re looking for will grow. Not because you succeed, but because no matter what the result, there you are! Still kickin!

Also, consider some better self nurturing habits. You have a lovely and tender heart, and it needs your care. Take a bath,listen to soft music, go on a walk with nature… when we are gentle with ourselves, our body feels better. Too much work and not enough nurturing makes jack a dull boy. 🙂

With warmth,
Matt
