Here's what being raised by awful parents does. They make every feeling, every trait, everything you do seen thru a lens of negativity. They never once encouraged me or gave praise or showed interest. I had to do everything on my own and that is how I became.
I say this as I just today reframed how I think , and thus feel about something.
So Mr Seagoon is a pretty interesting man. ๐ He does some pretty cool stuff , the sweetest thing is he writes cute stories , and they are good too. I love them.
And I am so into what he writes and him. Negative me was telling myself I let myself be distracted from doing things myself, I go down rabbit holes. ( Which I would then feel guilty )
Positive me tells me he inspires me . ๐
That's not to say I don't enjoy his work or the rabbit holes. I Do. No more feeling bad or guilty. Only happiness.
Hugs to you because you always give them out to others. ๐ซ
That super dangerous But word. Iโm trying limit it
Yep. And so much anxiety and perfectionism. Destroys the ability to relax or have fun.
Seems like youโve found a happier place ๐
