Diary-post: why I have low self esteme, ADD, panics and a fear of independance

I haven’t done this in a long time. Experiencing life sober isn’t the only thing that’s strange. Here I am trying to actually fix myself aswell. Yesterday I regressed a bit, in the form of an hour of sobs and a couple more hours of anxiety. Ended up accomplishing nothing the entire day. Broke my streak of accomplishments. Until that point, I was facing my fears and emotions and I was amazed at the progress I could do. And now, here I am, the morning after failing myself, stricken with a generalized sort of amnesia. I have no idea what to do with my time.

False!

false!

false!

1- I did not fail myself, I made progress.

I am rebuilding myself from the ground up. This can’t be easy with how far I’ve fallen, or rather, how little I’ve grown at all, ever.

2- The pressure of Vipassana

I don’t feel ready. I won’t deny that this is the time during which I would most benefit from the meditation, however I do feel that their warning about it not being recommended to people with mental health issues. Meditation they say is not a replacement for psychiatric care. I don’t trust my mind not to drive me into a worse state of mind at all.

Confused inner dialogue

New mentality:
But tiff, you’re doing it again. I can’t because I can’t is a paradox. Your worst fears are in themselves paradoxes.

Old mentality:
Yes but, I still exist. I’m still here. Should I be the one directing the monologue, you will suffer greatly at some point or other.

New mentality:
we are the same person, don’t address me like that

Combination of Tiffanies: *dope* ( /amensia)

Old mentality: the attention deficite, regardless, will cripple you.

New mentality: I would rather oppose this idea, but I do infact agree. It has been difficult

Meditation & ADD

“Meditation is a form of focused contemplation that relaxes the mind and the body and centers your thoughts. Researchers say that in the long run, meditation increases activity in the prefrontal cortex, the part of the brain responsible for attention, planning, and impulse control.

In a way, meditation is the opposite of ADD/ADHD. The goal of meditation is to train yourself to focus your attention with the goal of achieving insight. So it’s a workout for your attention span that also might help you understand and work out problems.“

Here I am thinking of the meditation leave I was supposed to sign up for days ago. Way too scared to do this. 10 days of silence could break me. I don’t care much about breaking, except that the people at the center would! A hyperventilating, crying and panicking person talking to herself through a number of different types of voices is not something that they can handle.

I can stop these panics, I can, but the way that I do so is by getting the hurt out of my physical body. The emotions build up in my chest and I feel they need to come out. I sobed like a baby yesterday. A slow and volnurable and loud sob. The same sobbing I did, litterally, when I was a toddler or child. I was conscious the entire time, limiting my behavior to relevant emotional reactions rather than having it escalate, for once. And surely enough, crying my ass off was the only way I could get it out of my chest. It’s better than panicking, for sure, but if I don’t get the crying out, then I will begin to panic. My ability to think in these circumstances is highly limited. I am making an excuse for myself not to try to fix it, without denying it’s current stage however. If I could predict that I could slowly work that stage into something less and less bad every time, then i would sign up. But I don’t know that.

The emotion arises when I pitty myself. I pitty myself as soon as I see myself doing a good job alone.

Where as a regular person feels good about acomplishments, I feel a sense of victimisation. I feel (not think, feel) that accomplishing something on my own makes me pittyful because the truest truth is that I am infact indeed very truthfully and honestly lonely. That is what I feel that I naturally am. A lonely and scared person, an isolated victim of unequalness. I do not identify to success, or independance, I identify with nurture and safety.

However, there has to be a part of me that wants more for herself. I would say that yes there is, but how badly does she want it? Not badly enough to go through the sensation of abandonment every night for the rest of my life, that’s for sure. Who would ever possibly want this for themselves?

If I told you that you could live the life you wanted, but that in exchange, you would have to cry and be scared every single night of that duration, would you chose this, or would you feel safer chosing a comprimise?

Safety. Safety is tricky, I can not say this enough. Safety, bravery. Bravery is a real thing. Habbits are real aswell. And what is even realer than any of this is the fact that I am doing this to myself

I don’t want to do this to myself.

I also still have reflexes of feeling ridiculously uncomfortable in certain activities. It would be nice to be able to push that away, but the truth is I sencerely doubt that it can be done over night or in time for the meditation leave in 1 month and 6 days.

–

My worst fear is that I will be there and begin to breathe quickly. Once the hyperventilation starts, the panic attack is not far off. How could I push the panic attack away?

For one, you’re not supposed to push it away. You’re supposed to observe it. It is my impression that I am supposed to understand it. I don’t know how to not try to understand everything in my head. To not do so would be to enter a hypnotism in which I do not exist… I am always looking to understand something or other.

My memory is highly damaged. I have bouts of amnesia and a very poor capacity to do exactly what I’m doing now. Writing helps me because I am reading the words I am speaking, and I can see the global ness of the sentances I am writing as I write. It gives me a visual representation, and more importantly, it filters the millions of voices into one, slowed down speech. I don’t know how to focus my attention otherwise. It’s difficult for me to sort the different voices out. Everything branches out quite quickly. I would like to be able to say that I can control this, but I do think it is part of the crippling ADD. Crippling because when I try to change it, it gets worse.

They say it’s because I beat myself up for things. I guess it’s because I’m distracted. It’s not very fair that deciding not to be distracted is not enough to make you concentrate on something. Just thinking of doing the act removes me from being inserted in the act I am trying to accomplish. When I look at a clock, I most certainly don’t look at the needles first. First, I remember that I have difficulty with reading a clock. Then, there is a sort of empty moment, an amnesia pocket, during which it’s hard to switch from that sentance to actually concentrating on the clock itself.

I’ve built a world of thinking about thinking. I cannot retain that much information, or multitask in this way. Perhaps regular people can, themselves, think of the command they give themselves and concentrate on that command at the same time? I’d imagine it be a basic human feature. Why can I not concentrate on more than 1 single thing at a time?

At work, i would often get confused. Even if it was quite important to me that I succeed at the job, refocusing my attention was ridiculously hard. Some days I was able to get in what my friend calls The Zone. If there were many customers, I could sometimes handle it with enough determination. But when something broke that determination, the embarassement and emotions I feel litterally ake away from my ability to concentrate.

I think I programed myself to be disapointed in myself because of the unpredictability in my dad being disapointed in me as a kid, which meant I would immediately be enduring physical violence and intentional terror-type punishing, with the heavy footsteps, angry face and loud male voice. (I cannot sit and listen to a man raise his voice without feeling seased and frozen)

This disapointment programing was reinforced by my environment at school. We had just moved from an anglophone town to a more francophone town. (bilingual areas have varying tendancies) My parents sent me to daycare and school in French for the first time. I couldn’t speak french, I could only try and fail miserably. I wanted to communicate with other children or understand what the teacher wanted to tell me, or defend myself against false blames, but because I could not properly do so, this is how my environment reacted:

– Teachers embarassing me in front of the entire class so that I would not repeat the same mistake (using negativity to have an impact on my behavior via my sense of self worth, which was actually becoming increasingly frail)

– Students not understanding what I was saying or the english-type humor I tried to share from my TV time at home. We didn’t watch the same TV, we were not raised the same, but all of them seemed to be french and they did not appreciate any advances I would do. Their reactions differed from confusion, disgust (I would wonder: why? couldn’t even understand what they were saying completely), intentional mean-ness and baffled-ness. Sometimes, they would pretend to understand, and seem very uncomfortable. Then they would hide from me.

When the students hid from me, I’d chase after them to play anyway. Sometimes I’d do that by laughing and running after them like it was a game. Sometimes I litterally thought it was, and that I was being socially accepted, only to find that they would run faster and faster and eventually push me or tell a teacher that I won’t stop annoying them.

No matter what I did, I was shunned. This never changed at any point in school, as this created a shyness that in itself seperated me from others. In addition, the schools I was in were always culturally different from me. In primary school, they were all french and I was the alien of the entire school because I spoke english, which might as well be chinese, and they didn’t have chinese kids in that town back then. If there was one chinese kid in the entire town, you would likely hear of it from someone who spotted them.

I would say that it was also reinforced by the private daycare I would regularly go to before the move. The babysitter was bitter, she didn’t hold back on pulling me away from the other children and telling me all about how inadequate I was. I would have rathered, at the time, she be nicer to me, but her method of communication terrified me. There was something cold in her, she was not nurturing at all. However, her opinion of me influenced that of my mother, who was my main source of nurture. In order not to have my mother be upset at me rather than excited to see me when the daycare was over, I had to behave a certain way. However, being scolled the way I was did nothing for my motivation. It just made me depressed and isolate myself from the other kids. Stay silent. Wait for the babysitting to be over. It was excrutiatingly long sometimes.

I began to have a fair social environment toward the end of primary school, but this form of betterment and healing was interrupted by moving to Laval and going to a highschool that was culturally diverse. I had converted myself from English to French in my behavior, and now here I was in an environment that worked on an entirely different set of cultural rules. Again, I regained some power, but the damage was done. It didn’t help that the mood swings had gotten bad enough that they made me fail my year. It was most certainly no better that we moved again, back to the land of the french, where I live now. They introduced me to cultural diversity, I didn’t want to return to the land of white toast and their excrutiatingly boring and similar lives. (trashy, too) So once again, my attempt to take control, weak at the start, was made pointless by the regression caused by the new seperation. I had to walk, take the train and take the bus to go to the same culturally diverse school the following year, twice a day, to and from, and this made it very difficult for me to get proper sleep or to socialise, and I was very very cold and lonely during the long trips to and from, especially in winter, when it got dark early and there were really bad blizzards.

Finally, it was reinforced by my grandmother. When my parents would mistreat me, I would call her up for a pitty party. My grandmother is an obsessive worryer regardless, and she would communicate to me that I had many wonderful qualities. However, she did so from the point of view that I was a victim, and she dramatised it allot. She wanted to call the police, which gave me the sense that my situation was infact an urgently unfair situation. How could I not victimize myself? Believe that I was different and disfunctional?

Which leads us to another reinforcement: TV. TV and movies tought me that my best hope for a support system that eased my victimisation was the idea of being innocent, beautiful and perhaps helpless. It’s the princess thing, you know. Watch any Dizney movie and you’ll see where I’m getting at. Every dizney princess was a damzel in distress at high peaks of drama, and characters very much take her distress seriously. They tend to that helplessness and in the end, she is surrounded by people who pay attention to her and love her. The end. (the end does not explain that the prince is a person of his own too, not just the extension fate created to take care of the princess)

It wasn’t just Dizney. In the 90s, any movie your parents showed you likely projected similar values… What female kid wants to grow up to be a knight, anyway?

I didn’t want to play mommy or daddy man! I wanted to be the baby every time, and refused the idea of settling for a rotation of roles. If I wasn’t the baby, I would cry till my crying was so inconveniant that they would allow me to take the role for myself, once again.

Then I started having sexual fantasies. The orgasms I was somehow able to give myself (????????) probably contributed to the victimisation programing in my mind. – Oh fuck, don’t get me started. Domination has been my thing since I was 4 years old man. That’s one heck of a fucked up kind of fucked-up! (hahahahah.)

The last contributor to my ADD would be giving myself excuses. I was clumsy, but so was my mom, and resembling my mother brought me praise. It was okay for me, because it was okay for me to be like her. It was cute. I was her mini-me.

–

So what will understanding all of this do for me?

I don’t know that I can reprogram my emotions not to continue to require the type of affection I seem to quote on quote “require”. It seems that when this requirement is not met, I feel volnurable, scared, panicked, and lonely. It would be pretty neat to go on with my life despite this reflex, but the nature of the reflex is very much cripling in absolutely every area of my life. It is my disability.

My only, only, only hope – is that I can reprogram myself. I still don’t know that this is possible. I have a tendancy to believe so, till the buildup comes out in some form or other. If it isn’t within a few days, it’s after a few months. It always comes back.

It is a fear. A fear of what? A fear of being alone? Yes. I have a fear of being alone, or independant. I very much do. Maybe, I can fight this fear if I make myself completely alone and independant? No… my mental strength is not chisled enough. I most certainly do not trust myself to maintain that kind of motivation. Or rather, to word it differently, I do, but I don’t trust the other side. The wave of worry that blurs my thinking.

How can one think, if they can not think?
How can one thing, if they are over thinking?

The result is you either can’t think, or you’re over thinking. How can you force it to be otherwise?

They say don’t force it, observe it. That’s the point of the meditation. I don’t know that observing it is ever going to provoque anything in me but recognition that this is what I identify as subconsciously and that this subconscious sentiment is extremely strong to be coming back unconditionally the way it always, always, always does.

In the earliest years of my life, i was in fact treated very nicely. My parents did bring me to many places and did many activities with me. I guess I seek to be the star in that frame, again. Empowered. But I was never empowered alone. Only when others were around to tell me I was worth something. If I went back to my room, I very much felt incapable of things. (being spoiled before hand also did not help with this)

Once, I drew a picture of me as a person filled with poison. I pointed to the poison and wrote “mechant” which means “bad” or “evil” (I meant inadequate) – I thought if I showed it to people, they might be proud of my realisation, my consciousness. They were confused and disagreed, but I didn’t believe them at all. I thought if I pushed a little harder, if I said things like “comon, you know it’s true” “it’s true isn’t it, you can say it” – that they would eventually agree. They eventually got upset at me and told me to stop, I thought they were simply not remembering the part of them that agreed. I kept this reality in me.

Sigh. Enough writing for today.

This phase is not an excuse – it is an interuption – refocusing (Step 1 / a bunch*)

I am not creating an excuse by saying this but

I am taking the time to create the idea of confidence in me

I am applying it by going out to do what I have to do but I must also take the time to create a comfort zone in my mind so that when I am out there, I may remind myself of the reasons why I can calm down, concentrate, and stay true to my decisions.

This is an excuse 50/50
Because the buildup of anxiety is indeed real, and you must brace yourself, recollect yourself, a bit.

In order for this not to be an excuse however I will have to set a date for going back to Montreal and trying new things, things that used to scare me.

I will have to plan out facing each of my fears. I am begining by identifying and understanding them. This is absolutely necessery so that the actions I pose to reduce my fear don’t *make it worse.

It is crutially important for me to understand why I am stressed in order to explane to myself that it has no basis, and that the version of life I feared and was disinterested in my whole life is infact better than it looks. Because of possibilities. Because of feeding the addiction of accomplishment. If I am doing a job, it is good, because I won’t need to invest in life accomplishments beyond that. (or say that and school) – it gives me the opportunity to transfer this addiction into another action or activity of my choice, like learning songs and abilities on the guitar. Learning the techniques of drawing and practicing them in between, Learning to dance…

As for my attention problem, I would say that allot of new things are fought. I fight concentrating on new things. I am allot in my mind. I will have to learn to disconnect… By decision. Not by force. Aknowledging that I am not paying attention, diverting the attention back to the subject at hand. Just like I’m about to do RIGHT NOW BY ENDING THIS HERE, POSTING IT ON WORDPRESS, DOWNLOADING A BEAUTIFUL MIND FOR TOINIGHT AND DOING NOTHING MORE THAN THIS before I head to the bathroom and to my CHORE*** (my decision to do this chore). I have some clutter in the living room and though this is not the most urgent task I have, it is however something that, like many things, I would like to decide to take care of before the more urgent things, because of the clutter that I’ve produced generally in my life and how being aware of clutter will distract me from the tasks I have to do.

This is an excuse… I can invest a little every day, but like I said, it’s alright, because I decided that the first step to my rehabilitation is not an unnecessary one. It is re-learning to be alone with myself but in a more appropriate and beneficial way (activities + repeated anxiety diversion) and taking the time to understand the realities behind the mentalities I fabricated, which have been making my problems unclear. I must first list my fears, then understand the logic I placed in them, why, and understand the actual reality. Then I will be able to forgive myself for it theoretically, and plan to face it in experience, and actually do so, whilst applying the new constructive mentality, so that there be no more clashing, no more backfires, no more panicks. No more yes but I. No more I can’t. No more exceptionality. (or at least as little as I can manage to reduce it all to)

Big Girls don’t cry

I did it! I had 2 productive, sober days. I re-directed my anxiety when it came my way. I haven’t had a panic attack in 2 days. I over-thought, but I saved myself from it! ~ I am not over-thinking anymore. Not right now. The fact that I am feeling cautiously hopeful yet scared right now and that and my subconscious picked “big girls don’t cry” (I didn’t pick it I promise you Tiffany) is in itself proof of the strength of subconscious associations.

In other words, if I bring my subconscious associations to the surface, experience them, and understand-them away rather than figtht them (accept them, breathe, accept reality) then my subconscious will finally find peace again. If you need proof of peace, all you need to look at is times in your past when you were able to live and function healthily. Normally. You were relying on one reassurance. Now you will learn to depend on a new kind of reassurance. It will just take safety re-assignment. Anxiety re-comprehension.

I could buy my addiction of choice. I was even invited to a very tempting gathering of the sorts yesterday and today. I refused! I stayed home. Had to work on myself.

It was nice being a bunny at school.

(bugs bunny hat) – and it was nice interrupting my anxiety twice with breathing exercises that actually work. The chest pain dicipates with proper breathing techniques. That alone is… a bloody miracle.

I cried a little tonight. It’s okay, opened old wounds. I also opened a door…

I wonder what it’ll be like, the next time I lose trust in this reality. I hope it will go better. I think I have tools to make sure that it does… we can’t always feel wonderful at every moment. But we can work our way out of negativity with replacements. Better thoughts. Breathing. Activities that relax the mind, like eating and pleasant conversation. Jokes. Humor. (a good laugh really does the disconnecting process – sometimes in one shot – just one good laugh does it)

Zones take time to build. But the zone is accessable at all times. It takes a few moments of gradual integration during which it is likely that the activity will be rejected.

I thought I was most certainly not going to go to school. I thought I wouldn’t have super. I thought I’d start taking the time to cry. I thought I had to put myself to bed early today. Yet right now, I feel mighty good. Doesn’t mean I’ll feel good all night or all week at all but it means something perhaps better than that – it means I have this capacity regardless. I have this capacity. It exists.

It’s on… the other side.

It’s on the other side.

the real reasons

I don’t know the feeling of satisfaction that comes with controling my thoughts in order to come out of a painful or disatisfactory situation. the gain is the liberation of action.

The liberation of accomplishment seems to be the addiction i am aloud to have. not the thinking process – the peace, and thinking of the right things. This feels like conditioning, I have a powerful resistance against that type of manipulation. When I was alone in my room as a kid, I didn’t have stimulation and I drove myself crazy. I got addicted to the freedom of using my mind, because I *COULD not do anything about where I was, and I could not change the shock and anxiety and physical violence, and I couldn’t control being put back into my room for reasons I could not predict.

I developped a thinking ability that did not require actions to feel good – i began to entertain myself in over analising everything until the process became interesting. I held on to my ability to over think as the only freedom I had and the only thing that could make me who I was, for it was the only thing I could control. I don’t identify with proper thinking. I identify with the freedom of thinking freely. I never conditioned this thinking in a way that would function in my favor. I let it run wild in all directions. What else did I have to do in my room? Didn’t play with toys. Got too bored too often. I was the only kid who didn’t care that she had a bunch of toys, not if there wasn’t someone else around. I am addicted to thinking whatever I feel like thinking about. I should be thinking about what I chose to think… no? No. No that’s not true either.

I’m doing it right now.

And forgetting everything.
No that is not true, I am panicking. There is a diffefrence between over thinking and panicking. Maybe I have a panic association with not predicting things. It’s true, I could not predict when dad would do those things to me. I could not control anything. I got addicted to panic, I think. I think I got addicted to predicting everything, being completely conscious, because if I didn’t expect what my dad would do, it would keep devastating me every time. Instead of accepting that I was an abused child, I faught it by trying to understand everything about life from within that bedroom. Yet I could not.

I still don’t understand where this comes from. This associating panic to acceptance. Why would I associate panic to acceptance?

Because I could not accept that my dad was hurting me. I tried to, and I tried to get him to stop. None of it would stop, regardless. PTSD – always being on your feet.

If I was to be isolated, I was to be different. If I was to be beaten, I was to be appreciated more so in concequence.

I felt like I needed more love than others because I was lacking in it. I became so obsessed with comfort – having no sustainable access to it – that I began a calculation that never stopped, ever, and that has been seperating me from others this entire time. Obsessing on the comfort that other people provided.

Why did other people provide comfort to me? They were consistancy, to me. Because as a child, a beaten child, I did not have access to any form of security unless I was in the arms of a person. Being far from a person didn’t even necesserily guarentee it – because my dad could bring me to another room for a “talk”. Being in a person’s arm made him terrified of the people who’s arms I was in. They were the only way I could ever possibly fight him. Litterally.

They were, but this is no longer the case. I can understand that now. I can use my mind to see that I am running away from something. I am running away from being cought by my dad by surprise. I am running away from him all the time. I am always afraid of the sensation of being taken away from people or away from people. It’s when he has control over me, or had.

But this is not the case any more. I am capable of being safe. My reality is in fact very much predictable. I can stop running so fast.

Why did I begin thinking so quickly at such a young age? why did I develop obsessive impatience? the need to control my own thoughts?

I developped the need to control my own thoughts out of self-maternal-ness. I needed to not feel helpless and sad and shocked. I had to hurry in another direction to distract myself from the shock I was in. I was litterally panicking. LITERALLY PANICKING KICKING THE DOOR SCREAMING IN FEAR

HELP MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
someone help meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

it got worse and worse. This is not a reflection of life, the evolution of a person, or any typical circumstances. This is a result of my dad’s increasing violence and spontaneity. No patterns. No reasons.

–

There were reasons why I was being punished. I simply wasn’t being explaned the reason at all until after my dad hurt me. He would first hurt me, then my mom would come and explain. This is not the way experience is supposed to work. Is it? – I should have learned life by being explained something before suffering, alone in my room, shocked. You’re supposed to punish a child in a way where the child can have an opportunity to reflect on a situation in order to understand it. I was tought that I am to fear situations. Dad enstored that fear. I could not predict. I was tought that when a situation is to be learned or experiencd for the first time, that the first step is terror. And if I am to avoid this terror, I must be aware of everything, because nothing was explained to me precisely. Instead of feeling like situations could be overcome individually, I felt as if I had to learn to predict every every everything, in order to become so smart, I would have less chances of being beatten by my dad for something, and that, without warning. Without being warned that I am about to go through trauma for a reason. The trauma, once begun, had no interruption option, with my thoughts. It was forced on me. The trauma was forced on me. I could not chose not to be traumatised. I did not appreciate this at all. I was very scared. This is a threat to my mental health.

The fact that the trauma was forced on me and not predictable made me develop a survival mechanism that relied on 1- not wasting any time thinking in one place. The quicker my thoughts impressed people, the quicker I’d be safe. I developped an association of safety with impressing people, because it leterally was safety.

This all did make sense. I was a smart kid. Just not smart enough to understand that the way I was trying to react to the situation was PTSD-like and did not account for having a future escape, regaining control of my safety. Not having to be potentially traumatised at all moments.

All and any moments.

Bed time was scary. No people around. The bedroom felt like a bad place. I did not enjoy doing things like other kids – only relational activities that kept me safe (survival mechanism) or developping thoughts that would either make it less likely my dad would hurt me or…

I did misbehave. I did push his limits.

I did insist on being myself. I “misbehaved” in order to do what I wanted to do. I brought it on myself allot. I wonder what that has to do with it.

What made me feel good in life, was thinking my way out of misery, and I became obsessed with thinking myself out of misery. Being obsessed with thinking your way out of misery puts you in a place of trying very hard. Too hard. And going too far.

I wanted to be fascinating like my mom. And the people that she enjoyed. My mom only liked “smart” stuff. Smart people stuff. I was only interesting if I did “smart people stuff”.

As a matter of fact, my mom stopped giving me hugs and things like this. She stopped paying attention to me and only me when my sister was born. Before my sister was born, the attention on me was only on me, not shared, and it protected me. My mom was always paying attention to me. She would notice things I did without me having to show her, she would try and help me through things, she would raise me. Explain things. She took the time. When my sister was born, though, she stopped.

It scared me allot. Made me angry. When my sister was born, I felt completely abandoned. And the entire time my sister was being made, I didn’t care to have her be born. I didn’t undestand how to love her. I didn’t, because I saw her as a threat to my safety and mental health. So I pretended to like the baby – and this made everyone like me. The more I pretended to like her, the more people liked me. But I despised her for years. It was a competition for parental attention.

I created the competition. I always knew I was the source of that competition aspect. It may have been reinforcd by my parents’ countless arguments.

I saw my sister as a threat to my survival because my mom was my entire world. She was the world in which I was safe. The outside world promissed nothing, and I was always raised to know that they would always be there for me if something went wrong. That I could always go back home. I was raised selfishly by my mom up to a certain point then abandoned. She always wanted my full attention, too. She craved mine like I craved hers’, we were best friends because we were the only two with the same fears. Fear of abandonment. In her case, it’s with being in a relationship with my dad in the first place. we sought comfort in each other

The fear of abandonment is the force that bonded my mother and I to each other – our victimisation made us best friends. We were constantly making up for our fears, because we were constantly looking for acceptance from each other. We were addicted to the safety that came with receiving attention from each other. My mom cried allot because of my dad. She screamed and was suicidal. The threat that is my dad was very real to me. He threatened to take my mom away from me in being who he was. I could not control that situation either. I hated it allot. I despised when my dad had driven my mom into a suicidal state. This started happening early in my life, it scared me allot. I was a toddler, sometimes. My dad was the unpredictable threat that threatened not only me, but the only figure of safety I had – my mom. And the only identity I had. We were very much like one. I was the mini-her, I was the pre-her. We looked exactly alike. I didn’t mind being like my mom. I thought that the only difference between us was mostly age. Some part of me felt like life would show me a life exactly like hers. It did present alternative choices, but of course, I didn’t believe in them. I didn’t understand them. My mom is what I understood about all of life.

When I was with other kids, I was dissatisfied by playing any games at all. They had many game suggestions, but I was only interested in games that made me feel nurtured.

Addicted to the threat being real, and addicted to finding ways to escape it.

But I did test my dad. Why did I test my dad? I tested my dad out of the beliefs my mom put in me. She fed my individuality, they fed my individuality. I faught my dad because they tought me to be my own person, but they were threatening my growth – I didn’t want to allow him to threaten my growth. I thought I was stronger. This is the strength still in me today. But it was never proven to be anything but theoretical. It never came to any ends. He’d still punish me and scare me. It scared me, I hated it and pushed limits allot. I was a devil-like child. Saying very much “no” and testing limits, so that I may obtain what I want. This desire to persist and obtain what I wanted was shot down every time. I guess I percieved this as a threat to who I would like to be. I didn’t appreciate it. I didn’t understand that it was wrong, I very much felt that freedom was right. It felt good. But because my freedom was so violently tested – I developped a tendancy to test it – and that created a cicle.

Testing my freedom, being beaten. Testing it more, being beaten more. Testing it still, beaten more. The beatings got worse with time. Punishments went to being in the dark with my dad on the other side of the door, pulling on the handle and ready to attack me if I tried to escape. He did many times.

Being in the basement, screaming in the dark.AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH HELP ME IM SCARED NOO NONONONONONO COME NOW HELP AH HELP ME (holly shit… its the same exact type of panic talk I have today)(holy shit)

He would be on the other side. Ready to attack me if I tried to escape the fear of being in the basement in the dark. I feared spirits and demons, without being able to identifiy what souch a thing even is. Ghosts. Evil spirits. I thought my fear made me volnurable to them – and that the more I was afraid, the more these monsters as I called them at the time, would try to terrorise me. This is not even necesserily true, but I amplified it as such.

My parents didn’t understand they were feeding me to them and that my screams were reacting to a threat that was real to me in this moment of panic. It wasn’t real to me, it was a what-if. But a scary what-if. My dad was on the other side, making sure.

I have amnesia-like feelings also because there was no point in thinking of the situation and the hurt. I didn’t want to be manipulated, so I would not give into the idea that I was wrong, ever. I never accepted the blame unless it was in my mothers’ arms. Only she made me accept the blame. I didn’t do this. I applied amnesia to myself at that age, too. Forget the whole situation.

I did have amnesia. Because if I forgot the situation, rather than coming to a false conclusion which was what was expected out of me, then… I would stop hyperventilating and crying in one shot. And it felt really, really good. And I could put a smile on my face and say I was ready to come out now. They didn’t always believe me.

The more I used amnesia, or rather, the more efficiant my amnesia, the more efficiant the actual recovery. It was my key to going out of my room.

I didn’t actually change my point of view by being punished. They asked me every time, do you understand now? Are you goin to do it again? I would say yes I understand, no I’m not going to do it again, but I was lying. Every child does this. I had to do it very quickly and efficiantly in order to escape trauma and isolation. I had to learn to pseudo-learn.

Learning to pseudo-learn.
Learning to pseudo-learn.

Learning to learn to deviate away from a thought instead of experiencing change from a changed perception. I didn’t want my personality to be comprimised at all. I felt that it was very much threatened. Threatened by force. If I was to conserve who I was, I was to learn to pretend to learn, but to actually believe a whole world of other things on the inside.

It was the way that I could escape things I wanted to reject in my parents’ teachings or their abuse. I most certainly did not at all have faith in their opinions – I was aware from a very young age that my parents were wrong. Not entirely, but just enough for it to make the difference. I was at least aware that they weren’t very good parents – because they parented me very differently from my environment. I trusted my friends’ families completely.

(completely)

I mean look at my friends. They were able to function. They were tought everything. Organisation, playing, they were fed food they liked…

I prefered others’ parenting over my parents’ parenting. I became aware of this very quickly.

When I lost my trust in my parents I fought the assimilation by learning to pretend to learn.

And learning whatever the fuck I actually wanted on the inside.

Giving into emotions. Feeding the addictions of life that need be tamed. Always, secretly on the inside.

School

Life

It’s the idea that I am different. Or that I must be aloud to be whoever I am, otherwise I will be the same as my parents’, or I will be what they want me to be, and that would be a terrible mistake. My environment was less and less appropriate for me. My parents were less and less predictable, they gave up more and more. I knew.

It’s the idea that I can’t trust my parents’ logic. Which at the time meant I couldn’t trust anything in the whole world, unless I internalised it and refused to listen to teachings that didn’t resonate with what I wanted – nurture. Freedom.

Freedom

I wanted freedom

And now I am my own cage.

–

I always felt like if I accepted the teachings of the people who were supposed to teach me (my parents) – that it would be me losing the battle, and being assimilated, and the same as them. I didn’t want to be like them – I didn’t see sustainable happiness in who they were. I concluded that happiness was the freedom not to listen to the information you are given and to question everything. I concluded that freedom could only exist in evaluating everything yourself. I was too young to think of life and the world so theoretically all by myself. Of course I amplified everything. I wasn’t accepting teachings – I was creating my own sense.

I was creating my own sense. I should have been aided in breaking that sense down, realistically. I didn’t know how to hold back.

And I very much felt that the more thoughts I had, or rather, the smarter I was in my brain, the safer my brain was from the world.

The world was the threat, allot of the time. Of course it was. I was a child who did not want to grow up. I wanted to stay with mom. Mom was my world. Because in this world, the ego was fed.

I wanted to be a princess. Dizney princesses were victims, just like me, except they were saved, by princes. The prince would kill any god damn thing for the lady. The prince was fascinated to the point that he would risk his life, with the lady. This was the ultimate happiness to me – because this world that my mom and I created – this false world – was taken to the next level with princes. Princesses were supposed to live with princes one day.

Women, supposed to live with a man one day.

I was tought to want to be married to someone who would have safety and attention to give me. I was tought to see my ideal other as a prince that would save me from my troubles. At no time in any dizney movie is that love – or nurture – or looking after – broken, from the point of view of the prince. The princess was always, to him, the most important thing he had ever discovered.

I found a false safety with my mom. The prince idea was the plan B for if I would have to set off in the world one day. I didn’t understand how that would happen, either. I very much imagined it as either a desire that would “happen” in me eventually because that’s what they said would happen. A desire to push myself out into the world never really occured.

It occured, but in the last several years it has been opressed. My fears have been fought the same way I faught the teachings of my parents – with secretive thinking (>secret>never actually tought anything> uncontrollable)(secretive thinking = uncontrollable introverted thinking). I’ve been fighting my fears and the world the same way I fought the fear of being supressed or beaten. By seeking nurtur, secretly seeking nurtur, and secretly always plotting to have it in maximum quantities.

This was something that made sense when I was a kid.

What a smart kid. I always knew I’d owe my strength to the way I thought as a kid. I always knew this. Especially at the time. I still do think this – but… that strength, the strength to persist, is being mis-directed. It’s aimed at protecting a self that lives in a world she cannot control. It’s the only form of safety I ever understood. Of protecting myself.

The world was scary because it reminded me of my dad. My social anxieties were pretty bad because my parents’ opinions of me was fluctuating and not regular. I felt the need to make the output I gave regularly more noticeable than others – so that I may be safe from everything. So that I may exist. This is how I learned to exist. Safely. Because there was very much a threat.

Other people were scary because if they rejected me, they would look away. If they aren’t looking, my dad could hurt me. But worse – if they weren’t looking at me, there was no more victimisation world to feel safe in.

I am addicted to self victimisation, nurtur and the attention of others. I misunderstood the idea that actual safety is what it is. I placed all my idea of safety in relationships. I did so secretly and I fed it allot.

****** actually
allot of my social anxiety comes from my dad forcing me to be adequate with people. Yes, when I tried to be myself with a kid, I’d be surprised – by my dad – shaking his finger. It meant pain and violence would come. And fear. And trauma. That’s it – I must have said something wrong. Being myself with others very much did result in me being beaten for it.

My dad didn’t allow me to be me. And my mom wanted me to be like her.

My mom only gave me love because she saw herself in me. Or she saw a doll in me. I was her princess and doll and everything. But if I tried to be too much like myself, she was aware and allowed for dad to supress it traumatically. She only gave me safety at home, away from others. She even disregarded anything I had to say if I was around other people and she was there too. She would laugh at me instead of help me. She was prioritising them. She would betray me. I hated it.

When around other people – my mom would not care about me. And my dad would always be watching -I could be beaten at any time.

Fuck man, I was conditioned to be afraid of people.

I don’t have a self. I am survival: nurture, for relativity and safety. impulsivity – for escaping reality and conserving my own mind. (which ended up destroying it) – I secretly never bothered to be a person. I secretly moved closer and closer to being the idea of a person with my image and connections – when the person i was inside was secretly being conserved as a rightfully volnurable and dependant person. rightfully.

I didn’t have anything. I do now. What I have now – is choice. I never tought myself to want something for me. I never tought myself to want to d something for myself. I was never tought that it was safe to just be. I was running away from conditioning, abandonment, and violence.

2 out of 3 of these threats are still real.
Conditioning – ADD is my self conditioning. meanwhile I fight the world asking me to stay in a habit or in one place. And I am very much fighting the “bad parents” that are, well, anything that reminds me of a triangle. (the system, the government, it’s endlessly complicated and I do not trust it)

I don’t trust any reality without understanding it all myself, because my parents were wrong too much, or I was too defensive of their reign on my brain. Rightfully. I don’t trust thoughts because I didn’t have reason to trust my parents, which meant I couldn’t trust myself. Only the data I would encounter.

The thoughts expanding was my only hope into finding any trust.  If it can be proven, it is now a reality. If it cannot be proven – even if it is likely – do not trust it. You don’ have to. You can look for nurtur instead. Find people to trust. People who can interpret reality better for you. People you can trust, who can teach you life in a way that you can finally allow yourself to trust yourself, via trusting them. I am today always looking for an adequate pair of parents to trust in raising me.

Not having an adequate upbringing made me not trust any of myself. I didn’t trust I was raised properly. And I started not trsuting that I was even raising myself properly. That’s when the crazies really settle in.

I have trust issues.

Trust issues because my parents could not be trusted, thus I could not be trusted.

I look for trust in others who make enough sense to me that they can both protect me and give me reason to trust my own self. Because I trust them.

I’m always looking for better parents.

–

Right now, I feel sad. And scared. And anxious. And I feel as though I am wasting my time and that the darkness is taking my freedom away. I feel as though I wasted my time.

Oh, but false! No, I am tempted to feel this way. However, I understand that I don’t need to nurtur myself. Laying in bed under the covers would indeed make me warmer. But now I understand. Now I understand that this is the threat. Flase comfort. They really do have me if they teach me to do this to myself.

No, I will not soothe myself. I will do what I want to do. The more things I do – the more they become me. I must become a person.

The threat to me is not the absense of people – I do have people. People are there and they come and go. They are not my parents. I am very much a result of my environment – we all are – but I have control over my environment. I have creativity, the great gift for humanity. Creativity will change my environment. Creativity will change who I am. Understanding will hold this together. Sensible, logical decision to reach for fruitful creativity.

A life without passion is simply existance

People can abandon me but if they do I will still be safe and I will still have the option to find more people to be around. The people around me do not define me, either – I have to stop thinking that if they are not around, I will stop learning. I have the capacity to chose what I learn.

I will chose what I learn. I will learn to do things for myself. Why? So I can be a person.

If I am alone in a room thinking that I pitty myself, it is because I remember pittying myself when I was alone in my room playing something rather than fighting the assimilation or taking the feelings I had seriously. The fear was very real.

Being alone and playing with something is okay. It doesn’t mean I’m not being myself. It’s okay to put your attention on things and not try to internally regulate your teachings in a false direction or punishing yourself.

Punishing myself creates allot of fear. My relationship with punishment is almost hypnotically mended with fear. Fear causes concentration to demnish.

If I stop punishing myself, I will feel less fear. If I focus my attention to reality instead, I will stop being inadequate, and I will have reason to feel safe, because aknowledging and dealing with reality is where real safety is at.

Proof?

Reality has been pretty scary to you lately hasn’t it. This fear is the proof that my reality has been the fallse one. And this is the explanation that will help me redirect my emotions.

And I will learn to make choices and see the difference between thinking fast and being afraid to remain in a thought. The fear of my mind being conditioned.

It’s okay to trust something even if it doesn’t feel right. I never learned that. I will show myself.

Show. Do. But most importantly – understand.

Understanding is what has been missing. When they tell me what to do, I feel traumatised. I don’t understand.

Now I understand.

Now I will learn.

I will re-associate my emotional reactions. Emotionas are necessary – if they are to be in me, they best be proportionate to the right things. If I create the wrong paralell, it will be equally disastrous. That* is not okay.

Thinking, deciding and doing for myself is literally okay.

Try discovering people from a different angle. By understanding the relationships between people differently. Why not.

Anyway. Tired. Here’s to finishing this.

I’m going to force myself into doing the things in the living room, but it’s not force, it’s my decision. So I will learn to enjoy it. Or at least, to accept it. If it becomes unpleasant – don’t run. Just keep doing it. This will be  very difficult.

There are strong chances I may not be able to do Vipassana yet… I’ll have to see, I won’t ask myself this question again tonight. I can’t trust my mind.

Or can I trust my mind? I am exausted. Exaustion is real. Especailly from over thinking. It’s alright I think, to tend to that. Mental exaustion is indeed real. It’s not an excuse and.,..

It is an excuse. The excuse is not accepting it.

I never accepted these things. It is my strong brain reflex to reject staying still. I want to change that.

I want to discover staying stilll and what it can do to me. I don’t want to but I understand that I need to. I will create the want. The want will come from the replacement for what is lacking. I must replace the absense of self with an actual self. Lack of ambition with ambition. Lack of social skills with implementation of social skills or acceptances and transparencies. I will acccept that I am not interesting because I am not even doing anything for myself. I will beocme endlessly interesting anyway, as soon as I start being a person for myself.

In my mind this is for other people to tend to me. I must understand that this is okay but that it mut not be the ultimate goal. I must understand that I am a singular person who needs to take care of herself. This understanding must not make sense in depression – it must make even MORE sense in my mind. More. Replacement. Not taking away – replacing.

Not taking away from the feeligns – not making feelings disapeer – replacing them with thoughts.

Distraction is a form of control. Thinking in one place is also a form of control. But it’s me controling me. And it’s okay for me to control me. This is a form of supression that is okay. Because it is not supression – it is freedom. I must learn that.

“Balance is not something that is found, it is something that is created.”

l’acceptance

c’est extremement difficil pour moi de garder mes pensees dans une place ou de ne pas etre distraite constament…

oui oui
effectivement
le anapana vas aider avec ce reflexe je pense

mais comment pourait il m’aider si je ne suis pas comfortable avec le fait d’etre dans une place

peut etre que le confort se presenterait si j’essayait de garder ma tete dans une place

et si c’etait le contraire

ce serait mes pensees qui font de ca… je ne me souvient jamais de rien et je part toujours sur quelque chose. j’aimerait arreter de penser dans cette maniere. comment le faire? accepter le deconfort de l’impatience. accepter l’inconfort de l’impassience. comment accepter l’inconfort de l’impatience?

1 *************** faire face a l’inconfort de l’impatience (donc se rendre impatiente)

2- etre consciant de l’inconfort, l’accepter. Donc ne pas se concentrer sur le fait que ce n’est pas plaisant, mais plutot de retourner toujours a la meme place. la respiration

et si ca revient, on revient a la respiration. je comprendrai apres un certain temps que l’inconforrt est present, mais que le moins d’attention que je lui donne, le moins il est present.

the future will have to be different from the past. this is something we all must realise – that the past is something to accept because it is the past, because there is no control over it. i wasted my time so far – fine. im likely to continue wasting my time – not necesserily true, because the more i persist, the more there is habit, the less i am wasting my time.

et il n’est plus la.

Discovery / “listening”

During my last hang-out, someone asked me lots of questions in order to get to know me.

I did not ask him anything.

–

My mom tried to give me an example of how she gets restless night syndrome but I cut her with responces of my personal experiencing with legs that fall asleep up to the hip.

–

I don’t see Danny much, don’t ask him how he’s doing. Same goes for everyone.

I never ask how people are doing

I never hang out because they would like  to/benefit from it. It’s always rather because i would like to.

(No one asks to hang out with me much, either – people are busy, I am busy. Might show myself more generous if they asked more – yet they know not to ask because they know and i know that i cant be there for them)

I don’t get out of my way to help others.

Being in a difficult situation, however, begs the excuse “help me help you”. It is not black and white.

– 

I read articles very quickly, I’m not watching the TV show I put on.

I write, but don’t comment or like.

Post, don’t give back.

Why is that comsidered such an act of generosity to me? Because im more “comfortable” alone? 

I tried.

(You did? What happened?)

– it took up more of my time than id have liked

– i was being too perfectionist in writing (mostly trust myself communicating in person, in audio recordings or in video)

– i could not seem to manage my time

– i could not control the intensity of my writing

– it made me emotionally weary of public expression – i try too hard and don’t know when I should even be taking the time to try.

I can try to be slightly more active a wordpress comenter for a while.

It is a selfish motive. Sure part of me wants to understand reciprocity, but this is a touchy subject for me.

Reciprocity while driving yourself nuts is strange, difficult and almost impossible.

– 

‘Not fair’

Ask / receive may likely not be enough. (Karma?)

–

This is for the psychotherapy. My inability to be a ‘person’ for myself (and in the favor of others)(empathy exists here) is something that might be too complexe to adress tonight. Childhood issues.

– 

What are you doing now? What do you need to balance in a day?

– work training

– school books (a few actual pages/day)

– misc important

– writing

– research

– tv

– food

 

–

Habbit. Habbit is the glue, they say. She says. I said. How is habbit going to help?

Safety. Safety is how hanbit is going to help. Some habits are okay. If you don’t feel safe, you distrust the habit, with or without reason. Or you’re having (a) bad day where you need an escape.

Need?

Escaping… Habit?

/

Escaping habit is a bad habit. Which is a habit. 

> Habits win. 

If you keep testing yourself, you’ll keep failing.

if you keep leaving traps for sad or high tiff, you will continue to see her as a seperate entity.

Leaving traps / testing someone is something you so when you distrust it. If you could trust it, you would not be requiring these tests and traps.

You should bring halves together. Uncover the other tiff from real Tiff. Feel the other side. Go through it, rather. Go through * the other side. Walk along a path in the fantasy style nightmare. Walk on the broken glass. Crawl through things. Try not to burn from fires. Run away from hungry dogs. Get to know the town. You have to change it, anyway. For that you need to be aware of it and how it feels to you, what you want to change and why.

Rebuild it.

And join that with the calmness of buddhism. It promisses nothing, but calmness. Calmness is a path to concentration. You will need to be internally calm to concentrate better.

You will be calmer as you enter habit.

Next subject – habit…

Humor is an emotion-boost not unlike Music

humor is a little like music. It gets you out of it.

It gets you put of it.

It

Gets

You

Out

Of

It.

Temporarily. Which is enough of a window of time for you to apply real positive thoughts. Real. (real-positive)

Real-positive allows for opportunity

Skepticism is a healthy impulse unless

Real-negatives are formed too often as a result.

Real positive is where breathing is. It is living. (Positivity drives* acceptance, acceptance is key in life)

You aim for acceptance

You may feed it the drive of realism in the form of acceptance and positivity. 

Real. Real. It is the real that allows you to breethe. It is realer than any feeling or drug you have. It is the law that keeps others alive. The conclusion to the equasion, in a one colored answer.

Choice > control

Acceptance > control

Positivity > motivation > enjoyment

seroquel + progress

Mood stabilizers in the form of sedative medications should only be used in addition to healing your own self.

 If they are used in a context that goes against that, either actively or through inactivity (distance created me consumption) they cause you to distrust your own self.

Only medicate if you tryst yourself.

Bad controlled experience > Distrust in it’s effectiveness > distrust in ky decisions/self > Panic > difficulty concentrating 

I feel sick with the idea of abandonment

I will be able to talk about this 

Also, random note: 

i seem to have fun learning (things that will benefit me in learning. Guitar, general knowledge, getting to “know” a TV show (not necesserily reruns) – entertainment is present in “new” things. It’s a degree of control I can attempt to use.

For every time I feel afraid, I learn a random fact. Automatic punishment.

A fact. Not a method of dealing woth life. A fact, medical, geographic, philosophy leaves too mich room for interpretation. Meditation is a practice, not a fact. You will not get an immediate* relief

Another example of feeling good from learning (could) in some moments be doing school work. But it doesn’t have to be.

(School work touches career choice. It’s a little risky. We’ll see…)

Every time I get scared I must thoroughly learn a fact that will both entertain me 

(and others, by default***)

It will not fix anything but I might learn some new stuff.

If anything I’m a little afraid of making the association between feeling afraid and new information. I’m afraid there isn’t much fact for me to ‘rely’ my fear on, because my fear will cause me to fear anything I attribute to it, by consequence.

It might be best to simply observe and break down for now?

A mix. 

Fears for the future:

1- Notice. Breethe. Notice. Breethe. Notoce.

2- see it (you’re visual) – write it on paper or wrote about it on your phone

3- sort it out

4- it is sorted

Fears tackling the present:

1- breethe you are under control qhen you decide that you are. Find that decision. One tiny spark. One okay. 

It’s okay to see that you feel like shit. It makes you less busy feeling like shit. Make yourself busy not feeling like shit if you addressed the situation, or face your fears right here right now.

Life may be undescribebly unsettling and sad.

But it is here and you are it.

Are you going to disapear? You may be tempted to rebell, that is panic and you are pushing it away because you’re afraid.

Your past affects you

You are affected by your past

You don’t understand yet how it’s not too serious

You will make it less and less of a prison as therapy happens. Gruadually. 

Another random note:

Touching things at first burns or hurts. Again, the concept of 

Mindfulness vs Habit

Info & trust

Another random note

I am too obsessive and perfectionist.

I can’t keep trying to make perfect choices. Keep watching that ted talk about choice. Too much choice is over baring to decision making.

Perfectionism is only fine if it empowers rather than weakens.

1- perfectionism empowers my (the pizza delivery guy)

2- perfectionism is harmful towards me when I use it

Sifference: he says “aw, that was so good” at the end of it. Sees the good parts, the progress. It motivates him to keep adding, the feeling of accomplishment seems to be addictive.

The feeling of accomplishment is only a good addiction if you allow yourself * to be motivated by your own actions.

Another note

I am writing as a handicapt. As a procrastination. It keeps me safe for the time I’m writing.

– 

Yet, i can sleep, pee, eat and waych Ren & Stimpy on TV instead of stress out, and things will still get done.

Fear is a utility, not a law of life

Lettre non envoyée

Salut Francois, je serai à la gare à 12:05 demain, j’ai bien hate de te voir, journée d’enfer. La réalité a une laide texture en ce moment, mais la tête est là. C’est qu’il y a tant de variables, tant de risques, et les certainetés en lesquelles je croyait se démystifient en des choix, des choix avec plusieurs risques ou alternatives, disons. Petites pensées, grosses pensées. Pensées par rapport à l’acte de penser, surtout. Je t’ecrie a la place d’ecouter ren and stimpy – un choix qui m’enlève le temps que j’ai avec mon petit frère pour écouter. Le tout me trouble énormément.

Je doit m’inventer en tant que 1iere personne alors que je ne me conait qu’à la 3ieme. (Dépersonnification casiment totale)

Alors que Tiffany 1iere personne accepte quelques observations sous forme d’observation du point de vue que j’ai peur de ressentir et que je doit me forcer à réfléchir, de peur que la réflexion me fait mal, a pour effet ceci à date:

– je suis surprise à quel point il y a beaucoup de mauvais réflexes dans ma manière de pensée, réflexes qui devront chacun être compris et re-évalués, changé en d’autres réflexes.

– je dois pouvoir me souvenir des changements de mentalité que je crée, pour continuer dans l’amélioration

– je doit beaucoup observer ma mauvaise observation, ce qui ne m’aide pas à tout simplement “etre”

– je n’ai pas la capacité de tout simplement etre dans beaucoup de choses, mais si j’ecrit mes progres, au je m’en souviendrai plus facilement.

– il vas falloir que je me souvienne de mea progres.

Progres ce soir: 

Je n’ai pas trop paniqué (j’aurait pu bien plus paniquer)

J’ai écoutée ren and stimpy avec une (des) couvertures

J’ai vu et dit allo a ma soeur

J’ai inscrit sur des papiers ce qu’il me fallait faire (c’etait stressant mais en ce moment ce ne l’est pas vu que c’rat déjas fait, je n’ai rien dans mes poumons, je suis confo avec mon frere)(ca arrete juste si jy pense trop, ce qui fait mal au coeur et au ventre) et je regarderai le papier demain matin

J’ai bénéficiée d’un moment calme, ici, en couvertes, à l’habrit du future qui me fait si peur

J’ai re-réalisée que le futur me fait trop peur et que je n’y applique pas souvant les choix que j’ai en fait et que oui j’ai de la misère à faire, mais ca 

J’ai payé attention et j’ai remarquée que j’ai un sentiment de peur aussitot que je me déconnecte d’une zone de confort que je me crée, ne serait-ce que pour un instant, regarder la télé, répondre à une question, aller à la chambre de bain.

Donc (remarquer) que les daumages sont +/- absolument constants à moins que je me crée un état plus relaxe, en réalisant oui, mais en remplacent* aussi, avec quelque chose de bien. 

Je dois inventer des solutions et faire des choix.

Je doit addresser les aspects de ma bie 

I can’t be an empty shell as a replacement * i need replacements for all the identifications and behaviors I’m trying to change.

They will be rejected, I will have to find ways to let go. Tv shows, singing, people maybe (support group)
