Yes, it is hard to lift yourself. It takes insurmountable courage to gather your broken pieces and glue them together. But, you’re not alone in this. 

Look around, we all are constantly living a journey of our own. I’m talking about the inward journey. I hope you give time to yourself listening to your voice which is hidden somewhere like crumpled papers. Open that door to yourself. Your inner self is standing there all alone; waiting for you to hug; waiting to accept you the way you are. 

We all seek validation but I hope you feel better soon and get clarity from your own self. There are questions lurking in your mind, answer them for your own peace.
