well they say it’s good to be humble, but i used to believe that is what led to my self criticism and negative thoughts about myself for some time. it started out as “o just don’t be boastful” but then instead of accepting praise or feeling good about myself i became self critical compulsively
now i don’t like self criticism when i see it, but it is common, and in fact i used to be this way. but grew out of it, i guess. now im rarely self critical and just accept my flaws without creating another condition entirely. i feel like im much healthier mentally these last 8 to 10 years, then i was the previous 10 years before that.
now what blame do i accept today? i’d rather not think about it.
