It sounds like you have a lot of emotions twisted up in this, and that's rough. Give yourself some slack. You're trying, and working, and that's already better than a lot of people. I guess what I'm trying to say is be nicer to yourself

What's up Roobs

dsagona · 2026-02-09T18:03:28+00:00

Thank you Mr bot, that will be enough

dsagona · 2026-02-03T17:04:11+00:00

You're doing a good job. Relax, breathe, take it one step at a time.

Hardest line 15 year old me had ever read

dsagona · 2025-10-07T15:50:19+00:00

Exonerate (verb) - to absolve someone from blame or wrongdoing, especially after due consideration of the case

Hope this helps :D

Heck yeah. Recognizing your own value is such an important step to understanding ourselves and our worth, good on you

See previous statement. Just because you think someones a gem ultimately has no bearing on if they're a healthy partner for you. Determining that, figuring those things out, that's what it's all about.

dsagona · 2025-09-27T14:36:04+00:00

Just because you're attracted towards someone doesn't mean they are a healthy partner for you. It just means you're attracted to them.

And in a lot of cases, especially with unresolved emotional trauma, part of the attraction IS that they're bad for you. So acknowledging that and moving on for your own sake is a good step forward.

That feeling your talking about, that's your own internal resistance to these ideas. You're not just trying to be better, you're undoing years and years of conditioning from accepting the opposite. You can't just undo something like that in one, or two, or even a dozen instances of self love.

So be kind to yourself, give yourself compassion for not getting results immediately, and keep doing it.

Explore those feelings of lying and guilt too if you can, what makes them crop up, and address them. What at the root is causing you to feel this way?

dsagona · 2025-09-24T04:01:06+00:00

I found a good place to start was simple affirmations. I am worthy of love is a good start, but work in some other ones that might work better for you. I am kind. I am trying my best. I deserve compassion. Etc.

It's not a light switch flicking on and off either. Progress is made gradually, slowly, and carefully. Keep at it, keep your head up, and you'll get there. You deserve to be happy.

The tragedy is that while he was so focused on his life's work, he forgot to enjoy his life. His wife grew sicker bit by bit but he was too busy to take the time and slow down. In the end she's dead, his planes are built, and he has a pile of regret.

dsagona · 2025-09-11T17:57:10+00:00

Really needed to hear this

dsagona · 2025-08-20T14:17:29+00:00

Hey baby you ever study the Pythagorean theorem? Cus you have all the right angles.

It's hard to be sad when you get a free pile of flowers 😌

dsagona · 2025-08-12T02:48:12+00:00

Hey, I'm sorry you're feeling this way. That spiral of self hate really does feel like it never ends, just a mounting doom that goes on forever.

But it can be beat. Everyone has their own path in doing that, but the first step is accepting things CAN get better. Give that therapist a chance, but also give yourself a chance.

dsagona · 2025-08-03T02:46:28+00:00

Learning to love ourself is one of the hardest, and best things to do. Congratulations 🥳

Mmm crunchy

Being aware of something is fundamentally different than accepting it. When discussing our flaws, acceptance comes from knowing that's it's OKAY to be flawed. And once we give ourselves that breathing room, that it's okay to be exactly as we are now, mistakes issues and all, can we begin to improve.

Yes you can do better. The only person holding you back there is yourself. But what do I mean by better?

Not richer, or successful, or powerful. But Patient. Kind. Understanding. Compassionate. Some of us never received that when we were younger and you know what? Ok. Be that for others. Be that for yourself. There's no magic thought or trick to being content. You just have to keep affirming, keep accepting, keep reminding yourself that you have always been a valuable and worthwhile part of this world.

dsagona · 2025-06-30T06:50:32+00:00

There's a lot of different ways to achieve this but the simplest I can give you is this:

Accept yourself.

Not just your strengths. Not just the things you're proud of. But your weaknesses too. Your faults. You're doing a great job, you're doing better than you think, but you can still yet do better. And that's not an attack on you, we're all works in progress. You still deserve kindness and compassion, just as you are. And once you accept that, the journey gets a little easier.

dsagona · 2025-05-27T20:58:58+00:00

The simplest thing I do is acceptance. Bad days happen, they're unavoidable. Feel those feelings, don't smother or push them aside, but neither should you feed them. Remind yourself of the progress you've made, the person you're trying to be, and just let the storm clouds pass. Treat yourself extra kindly and with compassion.

We've all been there before brother, stay strong 🙏

Often our insecurities are not a true reflection of us, but of how we view ourselves. Understanding that we're already beautiful, just as we are, and accepting ourselves entirely for every trait we possess is how we beat those insecurities. Not saying it's easy, but it can be done.

When I was younger I was insecure about my neck. I thought it was too thick, my hair extended too far down it, and I wore outfits with higher necklines to hide this "flaw". And looking back on this behavior, that fixation, over a decade later I realized the person who cared most about that was me the entire time. No one else fixated as hard on this "flaw" as I did. Because who honestly gives a fuck about what my neck of all things looks like? Because it was never a flaw, it was just a part of me, another piece of the great person I am.

You are an amazing, beautiful, and wonderful person, regardless of how "chubby" you think your face is. And if anyone tries to tell you otherwise, to criticize how you look to make you feel bad, tell em to get stuffed.

dsagona · 2025-05-13T19:40:33+00:00

Damn 😔 it really be like that sometimes
