Pay Yourself A Compliment

Lola, you're really brave to keep going with the PE therapy. You are doing good, hard work, and having increased FBs, s/h urges and dissociation at work doesn't mean you can't handle it ... It's expected and it means that you're doing the heavy lifting. Good for you for urge surfing successfully! And most importantly, good job reaching out to T and being honest and vulnerable in therapy.
 
Lionheart, you seem to thrive on adversity.

I have never met anyone more determined to heal, to self-actualize, to persevere than you.

You took a world of physical, emotional, and psychological pain and turned it around for yourself....

... and you have been an inspiration to and rock for others in your life.

You have developed integrity and character beyond your years. You are wise and impeccable.

I am proud of the man that you have become.

Nice post! Awesome positive way to get your mind going in a different direction. This does work. Especially when u are having a wandering mind or find yourself going down a bad road if u get out a piece of paper and a pen and write a positive affirmation or even Write 5 it will take your entire mindset and turn it around. I do it every morning to start my day regardless and during when needed. I learned it as a coping mechanism. So here goes my attempt at my best compliment.

Kolten you are a courageous and strong warrior. You continue to defeat all things set before you. You are a husband that a wife can be proud of for all u are and do.

Good luck on keeping up the hard work on doing this urself. It works!!
 
@SheilaKathy very good point and I think it might be the reason I dont listen no matter how much I can give mysef compliments or affirmations.
Its the little girl who is not connected with the grown up me.

The grown up me would say I got awesome hair too even if I dont take well care of it. Im maintaining fysique well to be an old lady. I understand things quik.

For the little girl I once was Id say you are such a brave girl. You are intelligent and Im so proud of what you accomplish in school with best grades. Despite how hard it is for you at home.

Latter part hurt. Wasnt hard to write, but it hurts. And made me suddenly realise that I dont really know this girl exept from what Ive wrriten above. Interesting.
