Wouldn't It Be Nice If You Could Reset Yourself?

I wish I could reset myself to when I was doing emdr on a more regular basis. It really helped me to feel better about myself.

I would like to reset myself to a little girl knowing what I have learned over the years. I think I would take good care of myself and let my family go to hell by themselves. I am angry now.

I would like to reset myself to someone who never experienced death.

Gizmo - noooo!! It saddens my heart to hear that. I believe this thread to focus on the hurt not having happened. Truth is, we ALL want a clean, healthy, abuse free slate and loving family.

Resetting yourself, doesn't change the past or eliminate the memories. However we can start by changing the way we think and learn from the past.

We can stop living in it, learn to love ourselves and take one step at a time into the future.

I know how hard that is from my own personal experience. I wish you all the best and send :hug: to all that need them.

I wish I could reset myself to yesterday when I felt better.

Just the idea of resetting myself I find depressing. I actually don't find it helpful at all. I don't find looking back a good thing in terms of magically wanting things to be different. I find it interferes with acceptance a lot. And I find acceptance very important for me. Life for me has to move forward. That is what life entails for all of us anyway. I have to look at the past to put it to rest and resolve present day issues caused by it but wishing is very harmful for me and I don't do it. My past is what it is and I would not be who I am if it was different. That does not mean I can't mourn it of course as I need to. But I want to work on growing and getting stronger and even more "me" rather than wishing I was someone different which I find very unhealthy for me.

I do wish I had an "off" button though. Just to have a break sometimes. :rolleyes:

An off button sounds great. :)

Yeah what a handy device.

I would reset myself to when I did not feel any anxiety at all. That was nice.

I wish I could reset myself to this morning when I was sleeping and my husband did not wake me up so early now.
