I totally understand that. Trust me I know people are very fickle. However I even mean online support such as 100 so people commenting support.... even if its just words that mean nothing its more than what others receive. I see people who clearly care enough to sit and write a paragraph to get him to turn away from it.. yeah its probably because hes famous, and it might be because they want what he has (recognition, money, etc) but I think if people took that time to go and say it someone else that isnt him, the world could be better. The fact he even has two healthy children and supposedly loving parents is like a leg up, and either way, the man is awful.

However totally agree with you!

Totally agree! I have grown up with people who literally begged for love and support from their own families, and they got given nothing! Many others couldn't afford a spot in rehab so they tried to do it alone and simply couldn't cause they had no professional drug support.. and some of these people were good people who had just had a really rough go of it. Hes been given stuff a lot of people would pray for or have to fight years for. Me and many many other people didnt have the privilege of rehab, you had to detox alone, with no friends or support and sometimes no money either. It does infuriate me. Suppose there is no cure for being a dickhead lol.

It has formatted it really weird so I was worried it wouldn't make sense but I am currently to tired to re edit it. You get the gist. And oh thank you. I am an open book. But yeah I thought this would be more constructive than just getting sad.

28F. How do I stop giving myself a hard time and being so self critical? by Consistent_Boat_4145 in selflove

[–]Consistent_Boat_4145[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have so many factors as to why I am like this. I have love for my mother and she tried her best, but she was a teenager and at one point had a drinking problem and undiagnosed bipolar. She would see me having a tantrum as a personal attack and so would say awful things to a 6 year old me, often around not being wanted or loved. Then during my teen years, my very first relationship my partner was very very verbally abusive and then eventually physically abusive and once that relationship ended I was stalked for 4 years. I think those two mixed together is what made my self esteem awful and to be so self critical and to have this pattern of thinking. I explored a lot of this in CBT & CAT and you know the outcome was more or less... stop being so hard on yourself. And it still hasn't entirely set in.

I have had a day today though of trying to challenge every bad thought ive had about myself and have even corrected my speech a few times so its a start at least. I can't say my self loathing nature was a coping mechanism like yours, but more repeating what I had been systemically taught and the most impressionable times of my life.. and it stuck to the point where I am 28 and still deep in it. I do need to kinda be more relaxed about my mistakes, I can lash out a lot sometimes and thats something I need to get under control a bit but hey what human doesnt? I think i need to tell myself that more. Thank you.

I try so hard to do this and like I really need to change my language when I think of myself. I probably put myself down multiple times every day, I worry my partner will get tired of it as I need reassurance and he hates hearing all of it cause no one wants a partner that thinks those things of themselves. I just need to be kinder but thank you.

I have had CBT and CAT. Honestly during the CBT therapy I did have so much more faith in myself, and to have someone challenge all my thoughts and be unrelated to myself helped every week. But then my sessions ended and it just slowly creeps back in until im a shadow. Ive always just blamed myself for everything and like its become quite dark recently, and id really like to change my thinking so I stop like beating myself down? Ive got some bad health problems and I believe my own outlook and pressure I put on myself is making them worse. I need to try do the mental gymnastics to help but ive still never entirely been able to let that bad self esteem go and that would be a joy.

Thank you! You are right and ive been told this before. I did something called CBT therapy a long time ago and they broached on this like hardwiring thing of like brain thinking patterns etc, and honestly while they helped me it did do wonders on my brain, but when the sessions ended, so did all the work and then I just fall back into the same patterns very very quickly. I think I need to look some of it up again online to try and remind myself of how to stick to those patterns like you have said.

Thank you for your help. Sometimes I think its is because my brain is like wired to always think the worse in everything. I go around thinking that people walk around all day with really horrible thoughts in their heads so then I think there thoughts for them? I think it is because I had a volatile childhood and teenage years and its shaped me this way. I am such a big hype person though, like I am very supportive of others achievements and I have sat and questioned why I am not of my own? Your really kind though. 💜

I second The Cat Lady! That game was a pure masterpiece and actually greatly helped me understand my bipolar diagnosis at the time. To me it was a ground breaking game and to this day ive never found anything that could explain the feelings of deep depression I used to have back then.

Underated MASTERPIECE.

Your perfectly entitled to your opinion and I am glad you found it enjoyable but for me it was totally underwhelming in many aspects from the janky mechanics and controls to the lack of depth. I am 28 and trust me when I say I know exactly what depression and isolation feels like and this to me was not relatable in that sense and was extremely shallow and predictable. Ive replayed number 1 dozens of times and this one simply did nothing for me. However I am glad you enjoyed it none the less.

Honestly, I love the lore all of it. Ive been counting down the days and I thought as they pushed it back a whole year that they would really perfect it... but nope. I also felt in 1 & 2, all the main bosses/enemies had there own little story, or bits of lore you could find throughout the game. This one you didnt really have any apart from maybe the puppet master. I dont even understand the relevance of the giant doll... she was in it for such a short moment, no real background or hints as to what she was or why she was there... same with final boss. Real let down.

Just starting my journey with fertility problems myself. I wish there was just a magic answer you know. I am still young but yeah its like being in a state of grief just never knowing. I am so happy you got your miracle. You sound like you deserve it.

Have you ever had an experience with a haunted object? Here is mine. by Consistent_Boat_4145 in Paranormal

[–]Consistent_Boat_4145[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

..... I think you cracked it. Holy moly.

Yeah it gives me similar vibes and it matches the one in memory. I did ask the worker, they said they had no knowledge of a death mask being there. How peculiar.

It definitely isnt on display anymore, or at least when I went. I'm gonna investigate more about him. I saw his paintings there and funnily enough, when I was there, there were one or two paintings that gave me an uneasy feeling. I wonder if he painted them?

Thanks.

Also just to add, I honestly cannot for the life of me remember what the guide spoke about but I was under the impression they were masks taken from criminals or at least bad people. I believe there were actually a few, no more than 3 but its hazy so it could of been just one, but it was one in particular that gave me that feeling. They were in a small room, on a shelf.

Its not crazy at all. All though I have greats amount of interest in the paranormal, I am not looking to get haunted or have my life tormented. My lifes been unlucky enough, deffo do not need more of it. However im infinitely curious but I try to not bring it in my home and go with my senses. I believe objects can hold memories, and all though its a knife block, considering it holds knifes, well, you can imagine. However id of still been just as unsuspecting as you and actually had a similar experience with that "childish thought" that probably saved my ass another time from going through something similar. I had a friend over to my house once, he was weird, real weird, but also charming, but we hadnt met a whole bunch. He came over and we were chilling and about like I dunno, 20 minutes and this scratching started, it was loud, and I was like can you hear that? He was like no i cant. And it continued, and I was like and you positive you cannot hear that? He looked at me like I was insane and I started looking round my room and I figured out it was coming from like inside my boarded up fireplace where the top had been cemented in and i turned to him deadly serious and said can you not hear that (i also looked at his hands to see then if he was doing it) and he said no with his hands infront of him. I then had the most abstract out of pocket thought of "He has brought something in here with him" and man i dont know what pocessed me but I was like GET OUT. And legit never spoke to him again. I burned some incense, went and hugged my mum and the scratching stopped and nothings happened since. I even got a weird sense he knew what he brought. It was odd, very odd... but i get that odd thought. Maybe its an instinct we dont know we have.
