To see where my low self esteem issues comes from, I’d say a lot of it comes from childhood trauma + neglect throughout my adolescent and teenage years. To this day, I still have issues with believing that I could accomplish long term goals on my own. I’m 22 and I’ve been telling my family that I’ll be taking my permit test, but I’m always lagging due to my fears of being on the road. My sister tells me that I need to stop making excuses and to learn, but idk… i still have a lot to figure out

I need a pick me up. any recommendations?

And if not, are there any conspiracy theories you do believe in?

On atrl everyone thinks all I'm a loose sl.ut with no standards In real life everyone thinks I'm boring

European Nations Are Asked to Immediately Start Rationing Natural Gas Warning of possible further disruptions to Russian fuel exports, including “a complete stop of Russian gas deliveries,” the European Commission is asking E.U. member states to adopt a strict energy consumption plan. The plan would need the backing of national governments to move forward.The proposal would grant the Commission powers to force member nations to follow a strict plan of energy consumption cuts as of this summer. EUROPEAN COMMISION: European countries should immediately start rationing use of the fuel and cut their use 15 percent until next spring. If the bloc’s 27 member countries agree it would solidify the sense that Europe’s economy is on war footing because of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Public opinion is split over whether supporting Ukraine is worth the sacrifice. Some people saying they are ready to take a bigger hit to keep up resistance to Russia. Others saying the war would hurt them more than they are willing to accept. Europeans, especially those living in the bloc’s wealthiest regions in the north and west, are among the world’s richest people on average, and are not accustomed to hardships like keeping houses cold in the winter Bruegel think tank : Governments must ask people to consume less and should have the courage to tell their citizens that Europe is in the midst of what possibly represents the greatest energy crisis in its history. So ATRL: IS IT WORTH IT?
