Absolutely disgusted in myself. Things can only get worse from here feeling down, angry, frustrated with myself. Just want to crawl into a hole and hide from the world!

It sounds like it's a pretty tough day and you're having lots of negative thoughts about yourself and how you're coping with things. I'm wondering if you're not feeling there's any alternative to placing this blame on yourself? It sounds like you're in a lot of pain and maybe feeling it's all your fault is making things spiral a bit?
Let us know how you're getting on,

Thank you for replying Sarah!
Sarah honestly I feel things have spiralled this week. It hasn't been a great week at all. Things were going great, and I feel I've let myself down. Been feeling very low recently. I feel I'm being very critical of myself but I can't help it!
Im so sorry to hear you have been on a bit of a downard turn lately - has there been anything that might have triggered this? It does sound like you blame yourself for things turning to a low ebb. I think that once you start the cycle of blame - and point the finger at yourself, then it can be very hard to look around and see other possible reasons for things going wrong in life.
We are our own harshest self-critic (Im the same - so dont feel this is just something you're on your own with), but it doesn't really do your self-esteem any favours.
Are you able to tell us a little more about what's been going on for you?
Yes, I do believe there has been triggers. A range of things has happened, some of which I wish not to share but I posted some of my feelings out on another thread - which felt good to get it all out!!
Guess your right in saying that we are are own harshest critics. I just get uptight when I'm not where or what I want to be or I don't reach my own standards.
A lots happened- been feeling down as I think I'm gaining weight (which is making me more self conscious), I confided in my friends about mh and other things (I'd prefer not to say)
