Most of us go through difficult times in life. Some difficult times build you, some destroy you. Whatever they may do to you, the effects are temporary. The important thing is to realize the effects that are destroying you and fix them as much as possible and as soon as possible. These are a few signs that result in self-destruction.

1. You lost hope:

You feel bad and hopeless at every point in your life. You have given up what you do, including your hobbies. You feel nothing works out in life. All these signs show a lack of hope. Your mind is covered with clouds of gloom. You don’t see the value of your life. You don’t enjoy life the way you did before.

Lacking hope for a temporary time is okay, but losing it forever will destroy you forever. So, never lose hope. Believe that everything will fall into place and believe that everything will get better and work for it, along with hope this time and remember to have patience.

Hope can allow miracles to happen in your life if you stick to it all the time.

2. You are living in the past and future:

You always live in the past where you had a better life, or you always live in the future where the worst things happen because of too much anxiety all the time. This life you are living in the past and the future is happening in your head, not in reality.

The more you live in the past and the future, the more you get worse and this destroys your happiness and peace, which is, of course, self-destruction. Instead, you need to learn to live in the moment. It’s not easy as said, but if you try to find ways to think about the present and live in it, your mental pain vanishes in no time, and you will live a glorious life.

Nothing is in your control, not the past, not the future, but this moment right now is yours. So, make the most out of it.

3. You are always lost in thought:

This is a common habit that most people experience. You keep thinking about something. You keep worrying about something. You are not active. You are not attentive to anything or anyone.

These signs show that your mind is passive. This passiveness confirms that you are in self-destruction mode.

Try to stay calm. Have a proper rest. Meditate. Read. spend time traveling. But never get stuck in the thought that will end your life.

4. You act more than you live.

Your smile is fake. Your happiness is fake. You keep acting rather than living to please people. You hide the pain in your head. You don’t enjoy anything or anyone anymore.

These signs show you killed true you in your head. Stop pleasing others. Cry if you want to. Share your pain in someplace with someone or with someone you can trust. The important thing is to live and not act.

5. You are comfortable with bad habits:

This is one more common sign which will show that you are self-destructing. Your bad sleeping habits, unhealthy food habits, dangerous lifestyle, laziness, loneliness, etc. You get comfortable with new habits that spoil your physical and mental health. This shows you are spoiling yourself.

At the early stage, fix these things or else you will suffer a lot later, and it will be too late to fix your life from being destroyed.
