"you're willing to sacrifice your own happiness for happiness outside of you" got me.

[lightshadow]

Yup. When you're not afraid to be alone or go without, no one can ever have power over you.

This can be hurtful for both parties. While the dependant person has to suffer with the hunger (because no one is truly going to be "enough" without your own self respect being included), the person who is being depended on to keep the first person happy is now expected to do an impossible job and has to deal with that pressure.

[LapisLazuli]

Self-respect is living in accordance with your values and keeping your integrity. Self-discipline and self-actualization provide fertile ground for growth.

I love how there're shorts so I can I now share it to a friend and they may watch the full video (cause sadly when I send them a video they dont usually watch it)

I definitely know people who put all their happiness "eggs" into multiple outside "baskets"; and let me tell you...those people are legit never happy with anything, ever; even when things are going well for them.

That doesn't mean that people who don't rely on outside validation are happy 24/7. But if you become responsible for your own happiness, you find ways of cultivating that within yourself, even during times when life just plain sucks.

this hit my situation in every aspect. i tie my self-value and happiness to people/relationships and when thing are bad/they leave my life, it tends to create a real mess for my wellbeing. as not only the person leaves, my source of worthiness/self-value evaporates too alongside with it.

its a net-negative having this mentality and its something im trying to remove from my day-to-day life.

I’m currently working through the same issue but with smoking weed. For so long I relied on being high to feel good that I became dependent on it. It’s been almost 6 months and I still don’t know if I can just smoke a blunt on the weekend, I tried twice and fell right back into the same trap and had to go through the whole quitting process. I gotta say that I wouldn’t be where I am right now without therapy, and I’m glad there’s someone online who’s putting these ideas out for free because not everyone is able to get one on one sessions ❤

[Intensive_Porpoises]

This fits nicely with the way I feel after I've deliberately approached a social situation I have anxiety about. Social Anxiety Disorder is very much like an addiction to the comfort zone. But when you deliberately seek out the pain, you feel better about yourself! (if you can remain mindful, and not fall into the post event rumination.. fecking difficult!).

Damn how can someone be so Accurate ..Thats exactly Going on in my Life

[cosmic]

I think the one event that made me choose my self respect was this high school farewell afterparty where everybody else was invited- even the nerdiest of people- everyone except me. I didn’t beg anybody to invite me. I didn't ask anybody to invite me. Clearly, it still hurts me to this day, that's why I'm writing this after all, but i still have some respect for myself.

Sitting here minding my own business and get smacked in the face with cold hard facts by a Healthy Gamer GG short 🤣 Loving the content lately!

[Viralsmells]

Good loop. It started a line of thinking in me that tied my experiences together in a cohesive way. Also shout out to you for linking the vid. You have no idea how few channels do this.

[elvin]

i decided to not chasing her anymore because i think losing myself in the process and i can say i doesn't feel that hurt like from previous relationship i got before her and im able to really focusing toward my college and gym

[Shoelace]

I see you met my ex wife, I tried to take it back and we fell apart. Best thing to happen to me, everyday I’m discovering how to authentically connect with people. It really is hard and painful, but I know it’s working.

[MNkno]

When you surrender the control of your "happiness" to other human beings, you become very vulnerable to being jerked around just for the shit of the person playing you.
Self-awareness, self-discipline, it may not be rainbows and sparkly lace, but it can be solid and sustainable.

[ahmeds.mansour]

Man! I’ve been listening\ watching you for some time now, and I object to zero percent of what you said so far!
You’re on fire my friend👍🏻

[artifundio]

Wow, spectacular clip!! I'm not sure if the title is doing it justice. This is more than a lesson on self-respect.

[jonathantrautman]
