I can be really supportive to others but I am really hard on myself. I'm just Ms. Gloom&Doom when it comes to me. I can feel like shit but offer you unending kindness and help. But me, I go over why the situation occurred, how I could be to blame, what an awful person I am , you get the drift. I need to find a way to allow myself a safe, soft rejuvinating space where I can take care of myself the way I would do for someone else experiencing all this grief, loss, fear, and pain.
As they say, we are out own harshest critics and part of that means our capacity for self punishment (waranted or not) is enormous.
ReplyDeleteDon't know what it is going on for you but I'm thinking of you all the same and hope that the sun comes out in your world soon.
