when i tell my therapist im scared im not capable of living independently they say

"but you ARE living independently you are doing it right now! dont sell yourself short you can do this!"

I'm really struggling to tell if they are right or not because i am not living. i am surviving. but maybe i'm giving up too soon. how do i tell if i really cant do something or if im just being pessemistic. i could do it if i just had more energy but i dont so im not. so therefore i cant do it? but i really could if i just got up and did it?

i really do want to be independent i want it so badly but that doesnt change the reality of the situation.

im curious if anyone has any input. maybe i should try and hype myself up maybe i only cant do it cuz i dont beleive in myself. or maybe from an outside perspective its obvious my therapist is being unrealistic.
