This really sucks, because having a negative mindset is my life. Everyday I wake up and I hear my voice telling me all the mistakes I made, and wheb I walk out of my bedroom I hear it out loud from my parents telling me that I haven't done anything when really I've done so much already. And I hear them telling me what mistakes I made and that makes me think that I'm always wrong. Which usually leads me to acting out. It scares me because I know its not me. I have a lot of things to work ob and I know listening to Psych2go helps a lot.

Trying to control everything and comparing myself to others are the hardest things I'm trying to change.
It's hard when you lose you mom, dad, grandad, brother and uncle from age 9-13 and you think of yourself as a failure for not saving them.
Then you go on the comparison amplifiers (youtube, twitch, tiktok, instagram) and see all the successful people. Then you beat yourself up, mentally and physically for being the biggest failure on earth

I'm expressing it through writing, writing heart breaking raw poems by pouring my emotions in it, i think it's helping.
As one of u have asked abt them, I selected a positive one instead of negative one. This is the only positive one in my collection of poems, lol. Hope this motivates u.

Read every sentence separately, these are the words we yearn to hear from someone, to give us assurance when things are hard to keep us going. Every sentence hits different for different individual as they've various scenarios. We've to carefully choose, on which one comforts them the most.

When I STOPPED WORRYING about what others say or do and just compared myself to myself, I became so much more productive in life and happy

I'm not sure if you'll see this but your videos make me feel better about my self. Along with things I can change about myself. Thank you

I'm an optimist and my mom is a "realist" (pessimist) and growing up she could be very negative.. even now she seems to like finding fault. I hear her voice in my head with everything I do and everyone I meet. It took decades to even notice, and though I love my mother, I am not my mother, and what works for her is not what works for me. I've had to retrain my brain into believing that she is not the authority on my life or my emotions. I encourage others to listen to their inner voice.. is it yours, or is it what someone placed there when you were too young to know the difference?
