Today was a good day. I’ve been feeling like I’m on the upswing, and today continued that. I was kind to myself today. I did what I wanted…I rested…I went to therapy and realized I’m in an abusive relationship with myself 😂
I laugh, but it’s also true. I have to imagine I’m not the only one. Most of the time, I am the cruelest to myself. I won’t tolerate it from others, but I’ll let that voice run me down inside my head.
It was a tough realization. But, an empowering one. If I am the one holding myself back, I actually have power over that. It’s me. I can change. I can be better to myself. I can add tools and techniques to my tool bag to help me lower the volume of that abusive, degrading, negative voice, and be kinder to me.
Therapy is the tits. I have a lot of work to do, but it feels like at least I’m doing it.
I’m tired. I’m going to leave it there tonight. \
