So, I don't know how I ended up here but I guess I'll just do this. I'm scared all the time. I'm scared of myself, and is not that bad because I know I won't end up in an awful place like I used to, but still I get scared that I sabotage myself again. And the most ironic thing is that I believe that this fear is the main cause of this constant imposter voice in my head. So it is like a huge loop I created and I'm not quite sure how to get out of it, everytime things get better for me I get scared, and when that happens I know that I'm going to "relapse" and I'm going to surrender to this imposter syndrome I believe I suffer. I start procrastinating, I don't have enough energy, I start eating unhealthy, I don't feel like doing anything. And then again I hit rock bottom, and all over again things get better, life gets better, I eat healthy again, I feel energized, start studying, I feel motivated but I think you know how it goes by now, the loop repeats itself over and over. This happens very often, it can last two weeks, a month, I don't know it varies but it always happens again. I think it's better than it used to be a few months or years ago, but it keeps happening and honestly I don't know how to stop it or how to deal with it. Things just get to much and I sort of shut down.

Why is life so hard
Today is already a sad day. It is my grandpa's birthday and I have been struggling with his death for years. He meant the world to me and his wife just died in...
I really like the way you wrote this, i heard that there is something called an imposter sindrome but I don't know exactly what it is? Even though i think it's when you convince yourself you are (happy, sad, angry...) and then you really feel it, I'm sure there is a way to get out of it, try searching the internet for solutions, though I recommend sticking sticky notes all over you house, saying "you are strong", "you can do it", "you are happy" or stuff like that, I don't think i really helped though, but i really am rooting for you, you can do it, you can get out of it!
