Can anyone assure me that everything will be okay?

When they talk about their expectations and hopes for me, i feel like i’m being buried alive.

Seeing others succeed makes me feel like such a loser. They can do it, so why can’t i? Why am i falling behind? Should i cut back on social media this semester?

Honestly, I’m envious. I felt a lump in my throat, struggling to hold back tears. I try to reassure myself, “It’s okay to be a little behind.” But my pride screams, “YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO DO THIS! WHY ARE YOU SO SLOW?!”

One of my biggest flaws is that i’m always scared and overwhelmed by what’s ahead. I feel weighed down by the simplest challenges.

I try to tell myself everyday, “everything will be alright, i just need to keep going”. But then my head feels like it’s going to explode, like a mountain of rocks crashing down on me. I just want to disappear.
