Do you talk to yourself in a way you would never even consider talking to your best friend, kids, or partner?
Maybe your inner critic has been so vocal for so long that her constant berating feels like a normal part of your life.
You may have a sneaking suspicion that if you showed your true self you would no longer deserve love and belonging; so you're performing at all times.
Perhaps you've run yourself ragged trying to pass the high bar you've set for yourself and you feel worthless for falling short.
However this inner-negativity is showing up for you, you're beginning to realize it is affecting all the areas of your life:
-
Relationships: you hold yourself back from fully engaging in relationships in your life because you're just certain that you're not worth knowing.
-
Work: you're afraid to be bold in your career because you tell yourself you'll probably fail anyway.
-
Yourself: spending time in your mind is not for the faint of heart; you keep tabs on all your faults so no one else's words will hurt as bad.
