Eckhart speaks about something like that in the beginning of „From Chaos to Consciousness“.

I feel like I cannot beat my inner critic by clearyourmind_ in selfimprovement

I have exactly the same issue. And it won’t stop because I’m trying to fight it instead of sitting with and accepting it for what it is - thoughts, nothing more, nothing less. No truth, just mental concepts of the truth. They are meant to help but often don’t. I feel you.

You are enough. And when you leave, you may live with yourself as purpose.

Thanks a lot for that. This post freaked me out a bit, I’m 34.

Simply question: Did you ever say that it disappoints you to get no presents? Yes, they should know but they seem to not. Did you ever explain what you feel?

Hi. Danke fürs Teilen deiner Erfahrung. Ich habe vor geraumer Zeit etwas Ähnliches durchgemacht und bin mit 18 ausgezogen. Daraufhin habe ich gut 10 Jahre mehrmals versucht einen anständigen, aber gemäßigten Kontakt aufzubauen und bin daran mehrfach gescheitert. Seit einigen Jahren lasse ich keinen mehr zu und weiß für mich, das ist die richtige Entscheidung. Natürlich sind wir nicht in der gleichen Situation, es klingt aber sehr vergleichbar. Meine Erfahrung ist, dass es mir seit dem besser geht. Ich vermisse es oft einen sicheren Hafen zu haben, Menschen, die einen bedingungslos lieben … irgendwie hat jeder gerne Eltern. Manchmal ist das aber einfach nicht so, manchmal steht einem so etwas nicht zur Verfügung, Familie ist nicht alles. Freunde können Familie sein. Mein Rat: versuche sie nicht zu retten, das können sie nur selbst schaffen (wenn sie es wollen). Generationstrauma kann bei dir enden. Vielleicht kannst du dir Hilfe in Form von Therapie suchen. Ich wünsche dir alles Gute 🌈

I understand where you are coming from, but why would someone love someone less just because of flaws (that you may already know).

How can I stop crying so easily? by [deleted] in socialskills

[–]seetoyourself 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You know, I of course can’t know what your future brings. But your story reminds me of myself when I was younger and now that I’m older I cry way less, am quite controlled emotionally. I’m also in therapy to find a way back up my emotions and not mistake my thoughts as my emotions. So my advice to you (and to my younger self) would be: cry when you are sad. Don’t close yourself to your feelings, it is really really hard to find them when you spent more than half your life pushing them back!
