Initially, she was unable to even identify her problems. She knew she was “really anxious” and unable to work. Her low self-worth was so ingrained in her that she didn’t recognize it as a problem. She had nothing good to say about herself and couldn’t identify any of her strengths. In fact, she was convinced she didn’t have anything meaningful to offer. Through therapy we learned that she had lost herself along the way. Perhaps not just losing herself, but discovering that she never really knew who she was to begin with. She went from being a daughter and living with her parents to being a wife and mother with little transition time. More importantly, she had no time alone. She had no time to discover herself. She had not only forgotten what she enjoyed, but it had been so long that she truly didn’t remember ever enjoying anything. She went to work because she had to help support the family. Her new responsibilities left her very little time for interests or hobbies. She was in an abusive marriage. She put on excessive weight and used food as a way to comfort herself. Behind the smile that Sarah showed the world were debilitating self-esteem and low self-worth. She was never thin enough, smart enough, hard-working enough, and most importantly NEVER good enough. She was not good enough for relationships. She was not good enough for her career. She was not good enough for her children. She was not good enough for her friendships. She was not good enough for God.
