Knowing Your Worth: Overcoming Imposter Syndrome
As a young adult navigating the complexities of adulthood, imposter syndrome can often rear its head and make you question your abilities and worth. Let's define imposter syndrome first: imposter syndrome is that nagging feeling of inadequacy and self-doubt, despite evidence of your accomplishments and capabilities, individuals experiencing imposter syndrome often attribute their achievements to luck, timing, or other external factors, rather than their own capabilities.
It's a common phenomenon that many young adults experience as they push themselves to succeed in their personal and professional lives. Today, we'll explore how to overcome imposter syndrome with enthusiasm and a judgement-free perspective, and helping you embrace your worth and confidently step into your authentic self.
Tumblr media
Recognise and Acknowledge Your Feelings
The first step in overcoming imposter syndrome is to recognize and acknowledge your feelings of self-doubt and insecurity. It's important to understand that these feelings are common and that you are not alone in experiencing them. By acknowledging your imposter syndrome, you can begin to address and challenge the negative thoughts and beliefs that are holding you back from recognising your true potential.
Challenge Your Inner Critic
Your inner critic can be a powerful force fuelling imposter syndrome— we are in fact our own biggest critique. Challenge these negative thoughts and beliefs by reframing them with more positive and empowering statements. Practice self-affirmations that highlight your strengths, accomplishments, and unique qualities. Remind yourself that it's okay to make mistakes, that no one is perfect, and that failure is a natural part of the learning and growth process.
Seek Support and Validation
Don't be afraid to seek support and validation from trusted friends, family members, mentors, or colleagues. Share your feelings of imposter syndrome with someone you trust and let them provide you with encouragement, perspective, and reassurance. In some cases you'll even find out that those very confident friend you have have also gone through it or are still going through the same imposter syndrome that you are. Surround yourself with a supportive network of individuals who believe in your abilities and value your contributions.
Embrace Vulnerability and Growth
Embrace vulnerability as a strength rather than a weakness. It's okay to not have all the answers or to feel uncertain at times. Allow yourself to be vulnerable, take risks, and step out of your comfort zone. Embrace challenges as opportunities for growth and learning, and remember that progress often comes from pushing yourself beyond your perceived limitations.
Celebrate Your Achievements
Take time to celebrate your achievements, no matter how big or small they may seem. Acknowledge your hard work, dedication, and perseverance in reaching your goals. Keep a journal of your accomplishments, positive feedback, and moments of success to remind yourself of your worth and capabilities during times of self-doubt.
Practice Self-Compassion and Self-Care
Be kind to yourself and practice self-compassion on your journey to overcoming imposter syndrome. Treat yourself with the same kindness and understanding that you would offer to a friend facing similar challenges. Make self-care a priority by engaging in activities that nourish your mind, body, and soul, such as mindfulness practices, exercise, hobbies, or spending time in nature.
In conclusion, overcoming imposter syndrome as a young adult in the journey of adulthood requires self-awareness, self-compassion, and the willingness to challenge your inner critic. By recognizing and acknowledging your feelings you can cultivate a sense of self-worth and confidence that empowers you to thrive and succeed. Remember, you are worthy, capable, and deserving of all the success and opportunities that come your way. Embrace your worth and step boldly into your authentic self – the world is waiting for your unique talents and contributions.

I could sit here and say I wish I never met you.
But that would be a lie.
I wish I never loved you as much i did.
No.
I wish I could stop loving you as much as I do.
I wish there could be this better version of you.
I wish you never held my heart.
I wish I didn’t let you drain my every last drop.
I wish I could just go back in time and fix everything that went wrong.
I wish this feeling you left me with will just go away.
Fuck i don’t even know what I’m writing anymore.
I’m so tired of crying over you.
I’m so tired of being hurt by you.
I’m so tired of being misplaced by you.
I’m so tired of being knocked down by you.
I’m so tired of wishing pointless things about you.
I’m so tired of being lost because of you.
I’m so tired of loving you.
But why do I want to crawl back to you?
On my hands and knees begging in such a pitiful way.
Just make it go away.
Take this pain away like you always do.
I don’t want it anymore.
I can’t live without you.
I can’t do this without you.
Why did it have to end up this way?
I want to hate you.
I want to be over you.
I want to move on from you.
But how can I move on from someone who shares my soul?
How can I hate someone who has my heart?
Why did I have to love you so much it hurts?
Why can’t I get you out of my head?
Or my skin?
Or my heart?
Or my life?
What is this you’ve done?
What have I become?
Who am I to become?
What have you made me?
Who was I before this?
I don’t know anymore.
Because you took it all.
You took it all away from me.
And promised me that you’ll love me.
Support me.
Take care of me.
Help me.
And now look at me.
An empty fucking shell lost without you.
Still looking for those broken promises to be mended.
I just want to come home.
And be a team again.
And hear you say those words you never meant.
I love you.
And I say them back and we cuddle.
While you stroke my hair or rub back while I cry yet again at your intolerable act.
But at least then I had you and some piece of me.
Now I have nothing but a fucking sweater wrapped in your scent.
Stained with my tears of heartache and emptiness.
You make me sick.

I spend so much time bottling up emotions I forget what it's like when someone actually wants to hear how I'm truly feeling. After being 100% open about where I'm at, crying, and just being heard.... I just. I don't think the other person realized how much it means to a person like me. I spend so much time in depression without being able to tell anyone how I truly feel. How emotionally hurt I am and the distress I'm in. Always being the one to help others without judgement but being deathly afraid to be helped and opening up in fear of being judged... It's nice.
So I know most people don't realize it or think too much of it... But check on your guy friends.
Let them open up and be 100% honest without judging them. Most of us are in some sort of emotional distress but society tells us our mental health doesn't matter as much. A lot of us feel like we need to be emotionally strong, always, and too never be vulnerable. Some of us bottle stuff up and let it eat at us and damn near take us out. I've been in so much pain recently. I forget that my mental health matters and there are people that are genuinely concerned about me and actually want to help/listen.
I understand being a male has "societal privileges" but for a lot of us, we don't get to benefit from the privilege and we feel like we aren't heard. And when we do try to speak about where we are at, it's usually met with more of a negative response than a positive one, only making us close up more.
For a long time I was told to "man up" or that I was too emotional for a guy. I needed to get over it. I need to be the strong foundation for others. I'm not allowed to talk about how I'm truly feeling and if I do, I need to leave most of it out because guys shouldn't just go around showing vulnerability. I've been told all these things in one way or another. I don't think a lot of people realize how much guys hold things in and are so afraid to be open about where we are at.
More men are committing suicide and I've lost a couple over the last few years to it. You all have almost lost me... I don't want to die alone but I feel more and more hopeless as time moves further along. When I say I've been at my breaking point for a long time now, I mean I've been one thought process away from ending it. I've been so close to the edge, the smallest nudge could send me over.
I'm not saying all this to receive pity. I'm saying it because I'm so scared of what will happen to me if I don't let it out. Being scared to die alone is the worst fear for me because the more time that passes... The closer I am to ending it without trying to find out what will happen and if I'll have someone in the end. The longer I remain alone, the worse my fear becomes a reality, the anxiety builds, and the closer I get to giving up because it seems so much more like a reality, that I can't fathom the point of continuing to live on an ever dwindling hope that my fear won't come true. You would think there would be more of a reason to continue but when the hope lessens, the reason to live and fight that fear also goes with it.
I really went off on a tangent here. I'm sorry everyone. If you get one thing out of this, if any of you actually read through it... I want you to check on your male friends. Some of us are not okay.
Some of us are tired and ready to leave. A lot of us are hiding it because we are told it's off-putting or weird to open up. So check on your guy friends... Really all your friends. But I guarantee you some of your guy friends are barely hanging on but too afraid to talk about it.
I don't want to lose anyone else.
I don't want to lose myself.

Life is hard.
I have had a very hard time finding my purpose here on earth and with everything going the way it is in the world it’s an understatement to say I’m a little scared. I struggle with anxiety and bipolar disorder and have even been hospitalized due to my mental illness a couple years back. At this point I can’t even watch the news anymore. The one thing to get my mind at ease is always cleaning or reading books. These past couple years have been hard, for everyone I’m sure, but it’s made me start to think what I really want to do in this life.
From a very young age I’ve always known I wanted to help people. Even if it was in the smallest way possible. I remember growing up and my favorite thing to do was buy things for my friends and family just to see the smile on there face. Seeing there happiness made me happy, and I’m still like that. The first job I ever had was a waitress job and I did that for 3 years. I absolutely loved it, talking to everyone and making there day just by being nice and having genuine conversations with them. There were the hard days though, and if you’ve ever been a server you know what I mean. Then covid hit and we pretty much lost our jobs because no one was leaving their house. I didn’t do anything for 7 months and ended up moving in with my mother at the time as I was also going through a bad breakup. When I moved back to my home town I got a job being a mental health tech at the same place I was hospitalized a couple years back. Pretty insane to think the mentally unstable helping the mentally unstable but these days who doesn’t have some sort of problem? I will say that’s probably the most rewarding job I’ve ever had. To really connect with these people and understand where they were coming from and hearing all different types of stories. Some of these patients would become my bestfriends while they were in there and the only reason I stopped that job was for reasons with the company.
But I do believe everything happens for a reason. As crazy as it might seem while I was working there as a mental health tech I ended up finding the love of my life. Yes, one of the patients. I know it sounds bizarre and probably unethical and your probably thinking, “damn she is crazy if she’s gonna get with someone from the crazy bin.” But there is a lot more to that story that I’ll have to get into later. All I know is that I’m in a good spot in life right now and I have changed so much over the years. I’ve been through a lot and seen a lot more and this is what motivated me to make a blog. I don’t know if it will go anywhere but I do know I want to help people as much as I can even if it’s baby steps. So comment, re-blog this, or even message me if you just need someone to talk to. These are hard times and I just want to be a Helping Hand!

Self-Care
⋆。゚☁︎。⋆。 ゚☾ ゚。⋆
Tumblr media
My self-care routine is my saving grace. When life feels like a bit too much, I retreat to my cozy space and do things that refuel my soul. Here are a few of my go-to self-care practices:
Journaling
I find journaling to be incredibly cathartic. I pour my feelings onto the page without judgment. I work through challenges, find clarity, and relieve stress. Even 15 minutes of journalling leaves me feeling refreshed and recharged. It doesn't even have to be written words, I have an 'everything page' and this could include sticky notes with words or symbols, a polaroid picture, a sticker that I got for free, a slip from a coffee date and more. It doesn't always have to make sense to the next person. Give it a try!
Yoga or light exercise
Moving your body is essential for your wellbeing. I usually breakout into the few you poses that I know by heart and just do that for a quick 15 minutes or go for a walk around my neighbourhood, peaceful and scenic. Exercise releases feel-good hormones like dopamine and serotonin that boost your mood and reduce anxiety. Go touch grass! Literally, reconnecting to nature is a grounding experience which can bring you back from a stressful day.
Call a friend
Talking to someone who cares about me always makes me feel better. I call up a close friend or family member and chat about whatever is on my mind, or whatever my day held for me. Laughter and social interaction are vital for health and happiness, try it out.
Do something creative
Tapping into my creative side is rejuvenating. I paint, bake, write stories or whatever sparks my inspiration. This blog is actually a form of outlet for me too, I just get a topic and start typing without any thoughts or direction and by the end the tension in my shoulders is less and I've got something others can learn from, or not. Creativity takes my mind off of worries and leaves me with a sense of accomplishment. You don't have to write, even finer painting does wonders.
Pamper yourself
A little pampering goes a long way. I give myself a skin care day; I deck out all my skin care products from cleanser to serum and more. Go get your nails done, nothing like a new set of claws to make you feel fierce. Taking a long bubble bath with bath salts and essential oils usually relaxes all those tense muscles. Do small things to spoil yourself and boost your confidence. You deserve it!
My self-care routine helps me decompress and renew my positive outlook on life, and if you knew me you'd know that I barely have a positive outlook at all. Make the time for yourself and the things that fill you up. Your health and happiness depend on it. What are your favorite ways to practice self-care? I'd love to hear your thoughts in the comments below!

Let me be frank.
You ruin everything you touch.
You burn it like a pyromaniac.
You cause a sickness so deep within it spreads through the body shutting down every major organ.
You’re poison.
You took the heart I gave you and you squeezed every ounce of love out of it, and watched as the blood coated your hands.
You took the soul I once gave you and you set it on fire and oh so kindly returned it to me, in hopes I can fix it.
You took the body I gave you, engraving your very name and essence into it, then ripping it to a million piece.
You ruin everything you touch.
You drain the light out of me and fill it with your darkness.
You hand me the torch and burned me when you did, telling me to deal with it.
You carve your name in me like a brand and tote me around like a slave you own for your entertainment until you’re bored.
You ruin everything you touch.
And when I have had enough.
And I just want to waste away.
You shame me.
You blame me.
You make me insane.
I hate you.
So yes to be frank,
Baby, you ruin everything you touch.

ENJOYING life
My sponsor put on a meditation today, and it took me a while to clear my mind of present life – people, problems, everything. But when I was able to release those thoughts and really focus on and feel the energy around me, my line of thinking became so positive! I thought I’d share some of the insights I had because I want to hold on to them. I want them to be put out into the world, in a place I…

Tumblr, I’m Backkkk!! So for the last year or so, I’ve desired to begin a blog. Somewhere to go and express all of my thoughts, stories, and feelings. A safe and judgement-free somewhere that is relatable for all things me! So here I am, creating that space for me and others!
WELCOME TO HOT GAL HOTLINE
The place that encompasses every single side of me and maybe you! Here, we’ll discuss serious topics (mental health, financial independence, intimacy, etc.) but we’ll also discuss interests as well (art, cooking, literature, etc.) with every little thing in between! 🤎
