Am I right?

Answer

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.
