I’ve realised that it’s a vicious cycle to feel flat and then feel ashamed and annoyed at yourself for not being able to snap out of it.
it’s ok to feel flat. It’s a normal human emotion. Being hard on yourself and unrealistic, is not going to help you.
be kind to yourself. Reject the shame. Take small steps. Be proud of those small steps. Celebrate the small progress. Keep going.
