There's been a couple times where I've been talking to my dad and his partner about our system and some of the things we've been up to and I just have this inner moment-

Poor Little Shame Goblin

For years, I’ve seen posts and comments from people talking about befriending their shame, anger, anxiety, etc. I never understood it. When I would read these things, I would instantly think, “Befriend that arsehole? I don’t think so.

・┆✦ʚ♡ɞ✦ 12.9.24 Embarrassment ✦ʚ♡ɞ✦ ┆・

I am embarrassed of myself but it doesn't matter how many times I try to identify the source I'm unable to. I don't think its fair to myself to continue to be embarrassed about who I am, what I like, what interests me, etc. if i'm not even able to identify WHY I am embarrassed.

Right now I am embarrassed of myself because I am learning how to make content for the internet and I am not good at it at all. Its not that i'm not good at it, I don't know what to make and my coach's advice is to be myself but I'm really scared to be myself.

I am a chaotic flawed little being but I want to be put together and seen as someone who has all their shit together but that is a lie. A lie I cannot maintain and find incredibly hard to maintain.

So for now I face embarrassment head on and purposefully post the cringey embarrassing content that might just flop. And I have to be ok with that, eventually it will become a callous instead of a growing pain but for now, please enjoy my shitty content.

Cringe post to come

when you see that cute post on tumblr and then think "oh that's so cringey" that's your inner observer casting shame on you for liking something that you're not supposed to enjoy.

Cast out the observer.

Nobody is watching you here, and all seven of your followers like cringe stuff too!

SPFPP Episode 145: Low Risk Disclosure and Self Shaming

Internalized herpes stigma looks like self shaming ourselves and masking it with external behaviors like disclosing our positive HSV status to someone low risk. By low risk, I simply mean their acceptance or approval of us carries little to no value. However, we're either looking to have our beliefs challenged or validated by their response. This episode will challenge that in you. Check it out!
