You didn’t mention this possible aspect of hitting bottom. I’m reading this possibility because it is part of my own history, and so many things are in common, toxic family, overachiever, living by default, girlfriend dumping me. It may not even apply to your situation but if does, this could be huge. That thing is addiction. If you suffer from addiction and aren’t willing to do something about it, then the reality is, even if you can’t see it yet, the reality is you haven’t hit bottom yet. And by addiction I mean doing anything in a self-destructive way. Drugs, alcohol, sex, spending, gambling, emotional outbursts, even good ole pot, anything for which there is a *A 12 step organization for. Until addiction is arrested, the downward spiral continues. If this does not apply, please disregard.
