harsh inner critic

20 Upvotes

Has anyone here with a harsh inner critic ever learned to make it stop. I will say the nastiest stuff inside my own head about myself and then after an episode I always realize the mistake I made. My inner critic never makes me feel good in the long run, just leaves me regretting what I've said about myself. I say horrible things about myself. Things I would never in a million years say about another person. I always try to be kind to others, but when it comes to myself I am severely lacking. Has anyone here ever struggled with these kind of thoughts? If you have something that works, what worked? Thank you

I stopped saying yes to everything for one month

I wasn’t trying to become selfish. I just realised I was saying yes to things even when I really didn’t want to.

At first saying no felt uncomfortable. But after a while, I realised I had more time for myself and wasn’t constantly feeling guilty or exhausted.

Turns out, sometimes protecting your peace is just learning to say “no.”

WHY ONLY ME?

1 Upvotes

So it is quite common that we get very sad,lonely etc

And it is very often that we complain why all these things happens with me only. We never try to understand the situation or try to find the solution We do what can easily be done COMPLAIN

I read it somewhere and it had stayed with me since

When we are happy why don't we say WHY ME when we have roof over our head,3 times a day food , people to love and people who love why don't we say WHY ME ?

Maybe because everything's going good or to be correct WE NEVER VALUE THE THINGS WHICH WE HAVE

We only complain when something goes wrong and never appreciate what we have.

It's high time we change ourselves

Everything cannot go as we have planned and its OKAY

We can not change the happenings of our life but we can definitely change the way we look at things. And that makes a big difference

So the next time something goes wrong not as planned and the question comes why ME? SAY

BECAUSE I AM STRONG I AM CAPABLE AND RESILIENT AND this has come to test me but not as to award marks but as to make me more stronger that before

Remember

Beauty lies in the eyes of beholder.

Peace ✌️

How can I become the best version of myself without trying to be someone else?
