Really urging you to try and unpack the capitalist and ableist ideas of doing enough to justify your existence actually.
Like, yes, we live in an unfair system where you need to afford to live. On a practical level, that is the situation many people find themselves in.
But fundamentally, you don't have to earn the right to exist. You have nothing to prove to anyone before you're allowed to exist in this world guilt-free. Your right to life does not depend on your productivity or you "living up to your potential", it is fundamental and unchangeable. You deserve to be here.
Don't let the guilt of falling short of some arbitrary and ever-changing (and likely unobtainable) goal wear you down. You have nothing to prove, and you deserve to be here.
