If you're looking for a non-New Agey term/concept to replace "higher self" with, "wise mind" might be what you're looking for!

Re: Jimin’s newest IG story. Coming from someone in ED recovery rn, if you felt something when you saw it, your feelings are 100% valid, but you are also allowed to let a picture be a picture. No further action needed. That’s what I’m telling myself anyway.

Thank you for giving me the push to finally crack my egg, Ollie

I recently went through a DBT program and I think I finally understand the idea of "attachment". As an ND, I feel my emotions intensely and always thought that my attachment and outpouring of love in my relationship was healthy attachment (spoiler alert: it was not).

Insecurity has always plagued me and was never more apparent than it was in my relationships. I would do WHATEVER it took to save a relationship because I was just so damn attached and afraid of losing what we had. In doing so I undermined myself, my own health, and our relationship, which only perpetuated my own self-loathing and insecure behaviors.

But there really is a balance between loving others AND loving yourself. I can both love and adore my partner and the joy we have in our relationship AND know that if things don't work out, I can still love myself, mourn for what I've lost, cherish what we had, and look forward to something new WITHOUT needing to feel like I should be trying to control his feelings, behaviors, or our relationship. Because I can't. And it's not my responsibility.

And that is a freeing thought.

It allows me to be fully present in our relationship, take care of myself, and support him in a way I wasn't doing before BECAUSE I was attached. I can enjoy our time together without worrying (or at least minimally worrying - I'm still a work in progress lol) or fearing that it'll all come to an end.

Not being attached doesn't mean I don't love him any less. It just allows me to show up and make the best of the time we have together.

I'm proud of how far I've come and wanted to share. I also just couldn't help but emphasize even more with Anakin. I didn't get to this place without some serious self-reflection, guidance, and persistentence which required me to directly face the things I didn't like about myself.

I couldn't have done that without a truly safe space to be myself and feel the things I felt without judgment.

Anakin didn't really have that luxury and had a literal Sith chirping in his ear working against him. That's not to say Anakin holds zero responsibility or accountability. I just empathize and understand better than I did before and it makes Stars Wars all the more poignant and beautiful for me.
