I don't know what to do anymore. It just feels like nothing I do is right at this job. And constantly feeling under appreciated has only made me feel worse. I feel like I've lost the creative edge I used to have after accepting this job a couple of years back. My manager tried to give me pep talk yesterday, but I still don't feel good about any of this anymore.

Sending you a big hug 🤍 What you're feeling is real, when the place where you spend most of your day stops seeing you, it slowly drains everything, including the creativity that makes you you. That didn't disappear. It's just protecting itself. You're not alone in this, reach out to people or things that can bring that spark back.

What is it you wish to feel or what is it you need to feel appreciated?
What is it you feel they are not doing to make you feel appreciated?
When you know you work to an outstanding level and do your job to an excellent level..
When you know your self worth,
When you love doing what you do ?
Why do you feel you need to be made to feel appreciated?
When one is satisfied and overjoyed and pleased with your own performance ..
There is nothing else needed...
What do think you need or want to be made to feel appreciated ..

When an employer doesn't appreciate what you bring to the table, not just for them but for yourself ..sometimes employers feel jealousy and resentment, instead of praise or encouragement,
They can bulky, knit 🧶 pick, harrass and overstep their position ..
Know your self worth, capability and strengths ..

Sometimes a loyal, hardworking dedicated employee can be sabotaged and instead of praise and encouragement, belittling and being nice on the outside when really hating you from the inside ..
You will know ..you will feel it in your gut ..
You know when so many things occur and then I e thinks ?
Why are they doing this ?
Sometimes people will not show their true intentions or they will not say anything and just smile....Internally people can resent, hate and want to get rid of you ..

It is them ..not you ..
They are insecure because of your productivity..
They hate you because they are competitive and want to be the best ..it's a screw loose in their heads ..
It's not on you ..
It's on them .
You can see things more clearer when you leave .
You will be able to see how and what things really are once you are out of it ...
You can focus and see clearly with a sound mind once away from negative vibrations, jealousy and it's actually their insecurities...

Do yourself a favour ..slack yourself some rope..
Walk out ..close the door ..
Don't like back ..
Open the door to new horizons..
To a new job ..new experience, positivite loving caring employers ..
Who will have your best interest at heart and will assist you and mould you into a higher way of feeling and thinking ..
One doesn't need recognition..
Need to be made to feel appreciated..

You know what you are capable of and you know you are exceptionally excellent at what you do..

As long as you appreciate you ..
You will be satisfied ..
When you want this want that ..need to be made to feel blah blah blah ..no ....

Be confident in yourself ..

I'm working on extricating myself and finding my identity again in a way that will be easy on my conscience and values..so I'm learning! Please dont hesitate to go to therapy!...
