Most of the time, I make deprecating jokes.
Some of them arent even technically jokes.
They are how I really feel.

I talk about how much I hate myself.
I treat myself poorly because I cannot shake the feeling that I am not good enough.
I dont know my own worth.
I believe that everyone surrounding me is more important, more talented, more valuable.
I think of myself as a bother.
I toss the wordfailurearound in my head because it seems to fit me better thansuccess.

I am proud of the person I have become.
I have been actively working on myself for a long time.
I have tried to become a healthier person.
A person with unshakable morals and unstoppable determination.
I am not exactly where I want to be but I am getting closer.
I am taking steps toward my destination each and every day.
I have made mistakes but I have also made achievements.
I have rediscovered myself.
I have found out what I really want from this world and am working towards grabbing it.
I am more comfortable in empty rooms.
I am more enthusiastic about pictures of myself.
I am growing to appreciate the person staring back at me in the mirror instead of constantly criticizing her.
I am doing well for myself.
My version of success is not the same as another persons version of success.
Most of the time, I am too hard on myself.
I never think anything I do isenough.
I compare myself to my friends and to celebrities, even though I know its wrong.
Im not trying to be perfect.
Im just trying to be better.
