discuss Are you negative about yourself?

[Ashake]

For real, do you feel guilty being hard on yourself? When you do something wrong, no matter how trivial, do you feel that you are a total failure? I do, and it is draining. I am learning to be more kind to myself. But it is hard to do sometimes. Does anyone else find it hard?

If I started feeling guilty about myself, it's over for me. This is what makes someone to become full of suicidal thoughts because he's failing at everything.

I'm an optimistic person even in a difficult and tough struggling situation. It's how I overcome.

 

[Harsh World]

I'm optimistic, but I think negativity as a form of motivation to prove myself right.

But if I do something wrong or fail at something, I don't dwell on it. It's better to learn from mistakes and move forward as fast as possible.

 

[Unvarnished]

Oh yes, absolutely, I'm sure we've all faced the same ordeal. For me, sometimes I'm being unfair to myself. When that happens, I try to reframe my negative thoughts by thinking about what I have done right and that always help me. Although, It's not easy all the time, but it really does work.

I'm all into self care to get out of such situation. Whenever I feel like I am putting myself down, I pull back a little bit and invest my time doing something that will actually lift my spirits. Engaging in anything to divert the mind from that negative thought.
