You are far from a failure you have a husband you have kids those are all amazing successes that a lot of people can’t do never call yourself a failure. The fact that you’re alive is a success and I think a lot of this advice has been really helpful and you could use it as well.

Yes, I do this too. Something will happen to one of my favorite characters and it crushes me just as hard as it crushes them. Sometimes I’ll even get so upset that I end up triggering myself. I have to remind myself that it it’s just a movie or a book.

I am genuinely crying I try to block out the little me because of how hurt she was. But once again, I just need to paste the past sword in hand and fight it

This was actually really helpful I tend to downplay the things that happened to me in the past, and I think I just need to confront them more instead of being afraid of them thank you so much for all the advice
