what you allow, will continue
Scattered Thoughts
All of these are various emotions I often feel, and perhaps most importantly, words I have used to describe myself to others and in silence to myself. It recently occurred to me that I have in fact been bullying myself for quite sometime. What you allow, will continue, this is true of the way that you allow others to treat you, and also the way you treat yourself.
I would never say these type of negative things to anyone i love, and most of them are words I would not even speak to someone I dislike. I would be upset if anyone else said these things to me, so why am I allowing myself to talk about/to myself this way.
I often find that people put me on a pedestal, and I am terrified of falling from it. This leads me to have unrealistic expectations for myself, and results in me becoming increasingly unkind to myself when I don't meet these expectations. Some of these words (yes, even the negative ones) are absolutely true, but most of the negative ones are simply not. Perhaps, with time I will treat myself with more kindness and more respect. If you are being unkind to yourself,I highly suggest you make an effort to do the same
What you allow, will continue.

Someone wrote a super derogatory post about you with your picture. I wasn't sure how to let you know. It looks like it was maybe someone busted for plagerism. Anyway I flagged it but I thought you would want to know. Here is the link. Sorry this has nothing to do with your post. https://steemit.com/fuck/@minhazdipoti/fuck-you-bitch-krazy-kristna
Well. I guess the same troll hit up your post as well.
Thanks for the heads up, he is copy pasting and now he got his feelings hurt.
Don't make change too complicated, just begin.
What we allow is what will continue ,change what you allow
Fear of being alone and losing the "support" of my three best friends led me to allow them to abuse me. I knew in 2010 already that we've grown apart and that my personal convictions and values were starting to diametrically oppose theirs. I allowed this to go on for 8 years for fear of letting go. Attachment because of a long past shared history.
No use crying over spilt milk, but at least I will never make that mistake again. They are out of my life. It was a painful and ugly break-up, but I now feel as if I've broken out of a prison of my own making.
As hard as it sounds bullying yourself is not that strange, as human beings we have to learn not only to love others but to love ourselves too. Be kind to you, tell you something nice everyday. use a positive language on you and others. Everybody fails, everybody learn.
We should freely express ourselves. If we care about what people think then its our fault. We are trying to chain our freedom down and that's so sad people live in captivity of others opinion.Anyway this might be off-topic but can you have a look at my post and suggest me some ideas i would be glad if you can check it out.
Nice post. Thanks for the insight. Quite informative.
Great job @krazykrista
I do that too, I am really harsh on myself if I make a mistake. More mercy needed! Great post.
