excuses

Today I sent an email apologizing for and withdrawing from a mentor-ship program that I voluntarily enrolled in. It’s not the first time I’ve had to respectfully bow out of something because I’m depressed, anxious, overwhelmed, bit off more than I could chew, or all of the above. I was hoping after graduating college as a #professional this would stop happening. It still feels like I’m letting someone down. Like I’m failing. Like I’ve wasted someone’s time. Will mental illness ever stop putting me in this position? Will it ever get easier to bow out, or to say I can’t in the first place? #Guilt #toomuch
