One thing I forgive myself for today is.....
Not being there for my grandma when she went bye bye.

...not knowing entirely what to do with going back to school, applying for jobs, and learning how to handle grown-up things in general.

One thing I forgive myself for today is not being the best daughter and making my father not love me.
@CheeryMango
Using sh to cope- I forgive myself for that. I had my reasons to do it, I'll try not to do it again and stay clean. But that's what I am trying to forgive myself for.

@CheeryMango Keeping bad people in my life; I tried to get rid of them for my peace of mind.

@CheeryMango one thing i forgive myself for today is not getting as much things i needed to do at time. i will try compensating for it now.
I am very patient and kind but I also can be extremely reactive with anxiety and anger. I try my hardest to manage it better with daily exercise and healthy habits, apologizing when I mess up and explaining myself as best as I can. I am forgetful and clumsy. There are parts and sides of myself and my life that I absolutely hate. I work on accepting my life and my self and not punishing myself or the people around me. Every time I make a decision I ask myself if it’s going to be a good wise decision that’s for the better or have a destructive outcome.
I feel the same, many times I get so much anger and it makes me sad because I don't want to feel that bad and toxic energy. But I know that anger normally is just a cope mechanism for sadness and unfairness. So once I learned that, I could manage my emotions better and learn how to rationalize and cool down.
I relate to this soooo much! Like every word.
crying on the street and in the bus after i broke up with someone who meant a lot to me but was hurting me

I have probably secretly cried many times in my life
@Whitewaterlily- ah , I hope you got some comfort from strangers. Showing your emotion in a situation like you experienced is acceptable. I have cried on the shoulders of strangers more than once. It has always confirmed how caring many people are in this world.
nobody really bothered... there was also a couple on the bus who were kissing and talking loudly and it felt especially bad less than an hour after i broke up...
for the fact that i'm hurting. it's alright that i'm not always doing well
