I always catch myself thinking that.
'Stupid'.
It's something I'm trying to work on - I wouldn't say it about anyone else, and I refuse to be my own bully.
Thing is though...maybe the recurring thought has a point? If I'm almost constantly feeling stupid, maybe it's because I kinda am. You know, the whole 'looks like a duck, quacks like a duck' thing. If it acts, looks, sounds, feels and thinks stupid...
Anyway. Recently my family members were talking about another family member who 'it sort of feels like you have to look after' them, and they 'never have it together, never make decisions'...after a while, I said 'I'm...also like that' and they quietly agreed.
Does that mean something?
Is 'stupid' in this case a disability? One that our family members notice enough to talk shit about, but not enough to be concerned?
I don't want to be that person, but I am. I can't change it. When I try to be capable, I end up out of my depth.
Fucking stupid. All the time.
What do I want? What do I even want?
This isn't gonna achieve anything. A little spiral and a vent post and back to treading water. That's dramatic.
No, don't worry, it's stupid.

I'm trying to talk less. No one wants to hear me. And it's not like I talk about anything important. Sometimes I just start talking without having words, so I...
Firstly stupid and capable are different things.
Don't label yourself as stupid because if you're thinking it, then you're not. If you can acknowledge in front of others that you're similar to someone else etc, honestly you're too self aware to be stupid. And just because you don't know what you want, also doesn't make you stupid. Honestly I still don't know everything I want in so many aspects of life and other things that I thought I knew I wanted, ended up being wrong or i changed my mind.
Consider instead of wondering if you're stupid consider instead if you're lacking in confidence and if you're unmotivated or lacking direction?
Sometimes knowing and figuring out what you DON'T WANT is the best way to find what you do want. Think about it that way. ❤️
