THINKING ABOUT HOW I’M IMPROVING

I just successfully led my second consecutive working group meeting without saying anything dumb or looking like I don’t know what I’m doing so I’m reflecting on that because I’m proud of myself lol 💪 and I’m thinking about what I’m going to say in a consultation phone call with a prospective new therapist in about an hour… 😵‍💫

learning your compartments and breaking them down

For whatever reasons the various psychiatrists that have treated me will give, I was a reclusive child, especially when it came to my emotions. I kept parts of myself hidden from certain people, always a different kid to everyone I met. I kept this up through my adulthood and now I'm realizing how much it's barring me from experiencing my relationships deeply. I protect parts of myself, uncomfortable with their coming out in situations I'd typically hide them in. I am too good at code switching and it gets confusing figuring out when I am being truly myself around friends and family. I am trying to learn where I can crack little holes into the walls I have carved around the many parts of myself; learn to make them all coexist a bit better so I can let myself be loved wholly, not only in parts.

TALKING TO YOURSELF

It’s so fun; like a one woman show. The whole world is a stage! Best enjoyed in the bathroom (not in a hot shower though, the thoughts get too intense too fast) Or your work zoom while you’re on mute (what a rush!) Or loudly on an empty subway platform (Dipping the toes in psychosis)
