Have you ever been really hard on yourself? (1 Viewer)

[lexus]

Honestly, I'm way too hard on myself. It usually happens with my anxiety. Even if I'm really trying my best to calm my anxiety (which happens when I'm in public areas), I'm still really harsh to myself. If I feel like I didn't try hard enough at to stay calm, despite doing my best, it's almost always never good enough for me. I'll even breakdown and say horrible things to myself that I wouldn't say to anyone else. I don't like being mean to myself, but when I get overwhelmed I still continue to say harsh words to myself. This is something that I know I need to work on. And I hope that one day I won't be so critical towards myself.

What about you guys? Have you ever been really hard on yourself?

Not too long ago I was really hard on myself about losing weight. I lost like 5 pounds in a week but gained it back so easily. Then I barely ate for a week so much that I was weak and lightheaded. I had NEVER done that before.

Yeah a lot of times, usually feeling like I’m a failure because I didn’t achieve x thing or y thing. And it’s especially annoying how even when I achieve something, I’ll find a way to discount it.

Indeed, but I feel like I am deserving of it when I don't succeed in smth.

Yeah, but sometimes I try to remember not to always be so harsh/hard on myself b/c we always have to remember is to make the best of our selves despite the struggles & unperfectness we face/lack

Yes too often, I always discredit my own achievements because someone else did better. I can’t take a compliment either, from myself or others. I believe its a lie. I hate myself.

I'm the same as you and it's killing me. And it hurts me because I would NEVER let one of my friends treat themselves the way I treat myself. I'm stuck in this cycle I don't know how to break.
