True. There’s a huge difference between self critique and self deprecation. Wanting to improve is fine, beating yourself up is not fine. But especially when it’s over stuff that it’s not that critical.

Other that “it’s all in your head” and “thinking about suicide is selfish – other people have it worse than you do” no one has ever been as blunt to me as my own negative thoughts are. It’s all implied things and conditioned responses. But, you’d be right, honestly. Like, not to be a downer, but there are times I remember shit people have done and said to me and I realize my positive role models and relationships have been few and far between. No one ever told me “you’re not good enough” but as they say, actions speak louder than words.
