Not entirely right.
Recognizing - a gerund. => No, it is a present participle starting the participle phrase "Recognizing ... is exhausting". It modifies the main clause "it's unfair ... myself".
'm holding - a continuous form of a verb. Correct.
considering - an adverb. => No. It is a present participle starting a participle phrase (which is a type of adverbial phrase). "considering ... is exhausting" modifies "I'm holding myself ...". It is like saying "I'm holding myself to an unrealistic standard [if you consider ... exhausting]".
dating - a gerund. Correct. "dating as a Millennial" is a gerund phrase.
exhausting - an adjective
. Correct.
