The concept of responsibility is not understood.
To a non disciplined child.
Or an over disciplined one.
Why is that? Because people on here are disabled and dont work?
You’ve had enough time to figure it out.
Wow! Is that a funky looking squirrel.
I find it hard not blaming myself for things I’ve done. I feel I should have been able to stop myself.
I am however responsible to be a good mom to my kids.
I think knowing our limits is important. For us to take on too much responsibility is courting disaster.
I think far too much of our world (at least in my personal experiences/perception) uses the guise of ‘responsibility’ as an excuse to have avoidant personalities.
I take responsibility, I’m pretty independent. I don’t have a case worker or support worker.
I take full responsibility for my symptoms. My rage/anguish/imaginary conversations are no-one’s responsibility but mine. To reduce these symptoms I need to minimise stress & triggers. That means I put myself first which can be hard as I was brought up to put others’ emotional needs before my own. I also take responsibility by looking out for early warning signs that I’m becoming unwell such as: talking to myself in public; fridge has no food in it & can’t remember how that happened; huge pile of dirty clothes on the floor & can’t remember how it got there.
I work 2 casual library jobs so when I’m on duty I take responsibility to be professional. Last night some of my customers were really irritating me but I kept it professional.
I avoided people when I was responsible because too many of them were leaches taking advantage of me.
