“I could not escape from you. My soul favors you endlessly.””

— Margaret Atwood

i’ve started replacing “i want to die” with “i feel overwhelmed” in my internal monologue, which is usually more accurate and more productive

ive been working on replacing ‘im so stupid’ with ‘im so silly’ and it has the same effect!

“I can’t do this” -> This will be a challenge for me, it’s normal to feel intimidated

“I hate this” -> This is a tough situation to handle and I’m doing my best

“I hate myself” -> I’m struggling with low self esteem right now, I need to support myself as I would a friend

“I can’t believe I forgot again” -> It’s tough to balance so many things, maybe I need to let go of some of them

“They’re not going to like me” -> I don’t have to perform for anyone, my personality is valid and loveable just as is

The list could go on and on…

Redirecting the “blame” from yourself and recognizing that you are a human suffering through normal, difficult human experiences is important. Support yourself like you’d support any of your close friends if they said these things.

I can’t tell you how delighted I am to see Actual Scripted Examples!

I’ve known I need to modify my self-talk like this for three+ years, and I’ve been trying for that long, but I never know what to replace it with. So the examples are super incredibly helpful, thank you so much. ~<333

I find huge value in “I hate this,” but only if accurately applied. “I’m doing my best” is usually more appropriate, but sometimes it’s liberating to realize that the benefits do not outweigh the effort and that I genuinely do hate an experience. It opens my mind to finding an exit.

don’t stare at the moon too long or else you’ll remember that nothing in this stupid fucking world makes sense

one thing about my heart is that i’m genuine. i’ve never had to fake a connection with someone to gain anything nor have i ever done something that wasn’t from the heart. everything i do, it comes from a place of purity.
