Earning self care and necessities

I feel like I have to earn eating and going to sleep. Like I have to do enough cleaning and chores. I have to wear myself out til I’m exhausted before I can go to bed. Like if I’m not exhausted why do I need sleep? Meaning I didn’t do enough. If I’m not starving, I didn’t do enough and haven’t earned eating.

🥺

I'm sorry you feel like this, it can become quite a destructive mindset and you need to try to be gentle with yourself, you matter and you deserve to eat and sleep when your body needs to, you don't deserve to struggle or punish yourself at all 💕💜
