Sunberry Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 No, seriously--HOW. I feel I am my own problem and I would like it to end. I want to be happy, but I am finding it impossible. I live my life through other people--I never think about myself, and when I do I feel narcissitic. I set goals for myself, but those goals are never met because I start focusing on someone else. I have a couple of mental disorders and I never fully take my medication. I start taking them on time and then gradually I stop I'm alway restarting everything. Everything is becoming exhausting and I mentally can't take it anymore. How do I take care of myself? Will I feel good once I do? Thank you. Link to post Share on other sites
d0nnivain Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 First you recognize that you can't care for others if you don't care for yourself. Then you take out your goals, if you haven't written then down, do so. Then analyze what sidetracked you & what you gained or lost out of doing that instead of focusing on your goals. Now set about achieving your goal again or revise it. When faced with another choice -- you or somebody else -- look at what happened last time when you picked somebody else then make an informed choice this time, understanding that the imperative to pick you carries weight. Also think about the fact that when faced with the same choice the person you are considering choosing would not pick you. Link to post Share on other sites
