"Self-sabotage is when we say we want something, then go about making sure it doesn't happen" - DeeDee

1. reframe your state of mind
2. work on your self worth
3. find a strong support network
4. break down your goals and celebrate small victories
5. talk it out

also, remember: you’re human, you’re going to make mistakes. that screw up feeling? that’s called youth, and youth is eternal so we’ll always have our downs, but you got this ❤️

Self-sabotage often stems from self-hate, this is a problem nobody seems to mention . Many of us have turned our minds into dark and scary places so we seek peace outside but true peace comes from inside and
momentary reliefs soon turn into destructive habits.

Having the mindset of
"Ah i don't deserve it" is the worst thing you can ever do to yourself..
Because in the end anything you achieve will be the result of unimaginable amounts of hard work and patience..
Your own hard work and your very own patience..
So stop having this mindset

[HeatherStrickler]

I have heard that self-sabotage is your body trying to protect you even if you aren’t in any danger. For example I am making a big move in the next month and I have gone through waves of my brain literally trying to convince me it’s a horrible idea and try to come up with excuses not to do it. The way I get through it is being aware that that is just my body wanting to stay in my comfort zone. As I’m experiencing this I don’t think it’s a self worth thing it’s a natural instinct from the body to try and protect you. I am not a scientist or anything but I’m in the middle of wanting to sabotage an awesome opportunity for myself and that is the only conclusion that makes any sense to me and what I’m feeling. I’m sure there are other reasons too but I think the main one is your body wanting to stay where it’s comfortable even if that comfort zone is terrible for you.

CAN WE PRETEND THAT AIRPLANES IN THE NIGHT SKY ARE LIKE SHOOTING STARS-

[JuneStay]

THANKYOU UNIVERSE for reminding me that I’m not useless and that blessings and celebrations will come when the time is right. In the meantime, I need to stop beating myself up and just let go of all of this pressure I’m putting on myself! 🙏🏽🌍✨☺️💖

[kakarikokage]

Definitely something I need to stop doing, but it's easier to blame myself for everything going wrong.

[DrJustininJapan]

YES, I always give myself 3 months at least to adjust to living in a new place. I've learned that these times can be some of the funnest and freest in my life!! Instead of doing too much . . . I give myself time to adjust and get acclimated

Once I started a martial arts class I started to feel more calm.

I'm currently sabotaging myself by not working on my studies and not showing up for class, they gonna kick me out if i don't but im too scared to show up. I just hate myself so goddamn much.

[celestialcrystals]

This video is literally me, I’m always off track of what's important and telling myself I have time for it later when I actually don't. I really wanna get good at art but I can’t if I keep stalling, Thank you Psych2Go for another wonderful video 😊!!!
