Again with the fear, this is also a recurring theme in my life. So it's entirely possible I don't have the belief that I'm not good enough, but I just fear that I could not be good enough? Everything I've read on perfectionism always pointed towards self esteem issues. My biggest issue is if I look hard enough I can find all sorts of issues that may not even be there. These days I really have relaxed on my self reflections, I found that more often than not my obsessive inward thinking was just due to the fear and the more I thought about things the worse I got. I still feel like my mind is chaotic even without thinking of these things.
