Having kept a journal/diary since I was 17 (and I'm well into middle-age now, I found that most people don't keep up with a journal/diary because they are too self-critical of what they're talking about. They often see the input into the journal they do in self-reflection as too cringy/angsty and give up on the habit quickly because of it.
I often have to approach it through addressing the self-critic issues by telling people the first way to stop being your worst critic is to be able to look at yourself in the mirror and like what you see. Basically learning how to become the best friend to yourself as you do with the people in your life. I warn them that this isn't a fix it fast method. I warn them it's a constant effort. And if they think it's going to happen overnight, I tell them at that 30 years of practicing it, I still have to wake up in the morning and practice precisely what I'm telling them to try to do.
After all, how can I expect people to follow what I suggest if I'm not demonstrating through example?

Don't be afraid to take action is the theme to these last couple weeks. I've had to leave my last job and start my new one which were very different jobs and different schedules and so far it's been really great. It also inspired me to take up skateboarding, even though I'm 29. I tried it 2 years ago and my commute includes a long walk, so I figured I'd pick it up again. I was definitely scared but I made some good progress with it. Soon, I might use it for my commute instead of just thinking about it.

The purple background and butterflies here remind me of the song Here Comes a Thought from Steven Universe. It's about mental health and letting go of situations or people that have hurt you, or you're afraid you hurt someone else, and your own personal fears and inner demons. Learning to say stop, wait a minute, and breathe, and tell yourself that it's going to be ok in the long run.

Hi Psych2go can you do a video of the best way to stop thinking about work when you are at home? I work from home and sometimes it really feels like I never leave the office as I live there so I keep thinking about work and struggle to enjoy my days off because of it. Thank you: )

This was right what the doctor ordered. What an excellent video. I will share this with my 7th and 8th grade students for social emotional health.

That inner critic of mine hits me really hard and I just can't shut it up or escape it. I end up feeling so down. So depressed.
