I have a bit of a problem too and it s not to do with lockdown (although it doesn’t help) it’s not because I m on my own I have been a long time, but it’s the confidence of getting older and making a mistake, as I find the older I get the more I make ...little ones but they all add up to knock me into believing I can’t do things
So all these little things, like accidentally leaving a light on over night, finding I ve bought the wrong item when I get home from shopping, ordering something online that turns out to be not at all what I was expecting, all these little things, that probably everyone does add up, and knock my confidence, so now I ve become a nuisance by asking my daughters’ advice about stupid things I would have had no problem with before or would have even given my own advice to others
It’s very very annoying and very confidence sapping
I want to make a decision and it be a good decision
I need to buy some white goods and I m putting it off and putting it off (as I m sure it’s going to be the wrong one after I get it and there’s going to be something go wrong) I ve sent my daughter pics and she s said all seems fine but I still haven’t pressed the button to do it
And I hate this feeling, this lack of confidence, outwardly I ve had plenty, inwardly I ve never had a lot but it feels what bit I had has wandered off
Very uncomfortable
