Apanon i love that lmaoAnd do some people really think its conceited to make a list of your good qualities?? Self-love is so important and your brain really internalizes everything you tell it. Like this is coming from someone who spent a year making the ‘haha wish I was dead’ jokes and who’s mental state really took a hit until I Stopped Doing That. So really talking yourself up is one of the simplest things you can do for your mental health.
It was an attitude I was around when I was growing up sadly (say you think you’re good at something and you get looked down upon because your showing off :/ It wasn’t a fun atmosphere to say the least, especially when the traits you were proud of kept getting mocked).
I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s something in other places too.
And yeah, for me changing how I viewed myself really helped me get to a better mental place (and well taking anti-depressants but they don’t just work on there own). You don’t realize how much of the bad things you have internalized until you do and how unhealthy it is for you until you make an active change.
Oh, and exercise. It’s so strange but taking care of your body really does help.
