This is incredible. I needed to hear it, thank you! I am better than I used to be, but still sometimes become overwhelmed with fear, and I find that fear leads to a lack of self-love. When I am fearful, I become angry with myself for not being better capable of allaying the fears. For example, I am fearful that the repairs my home needs won't get done, so I hate myself for taking on a house that needs so much work, and hate myself even more for not being good enough to do the repairs.

Those moments are few and far between these days but I had one last week. Your post reminds me of the work I need to put in to help those times become even fewer and farther in between. Thank you again for such an important and hopeful post!
