Finally coming around to accept that I don’t really have a best friend anymore and I’m totally okay with it! And it’s also okay to not have close friends that I consistently talk to because things happen and life is chaotic. For the people who are around me, I at least know now to keep them close and appreciate them while they’re there

I feel so happy and energized when I have ideas on things I want to write, even ideas for whole books 😭😭😭 time to put the hard work in, even if it takes years!

Finally, when shame has been completely internalized, nothing about you is okay. You feel flawed and inferior; you have the sense of being a failure. There is no way you can share your inner self because you are an object of contempt to yourself. When you are contemptible to yourself, you are no longer in you. To feel shame is to feel seen in an exposed and diminished way. When you're an object to yourself, you turn your eyes inward, watching and scrutinizing every minute detail of behavior. This internal critical observation is excruciating. It generates a tormenting self-consciousness which Kaufman describes as, "creating a binding and paralyzing effect upon the self." This paralyzing internal monitoring causes withdrawal, passivity and inaction.
