Most kind way to treat ourselves, good advice!

 

[My wake-up call]

You're definitely not unmotivated because your addressing a serious issue that has changed your life.

Insecure, no, you shared your experience.  That is brave.

Indecisive, making a decision to stay on this forum for support is a step in the right direction.

Scattered, your thoughts and feeling were expressed well so obviously matters of importance allow you to articulate.

Writing this, I hope, gives you the support to keep going forward in the direction you wish your life to become.  Wish you much success and I'm in the same place you are so you're not alone.
