A problem of mine: I’m always seeking someone to tell me my worth and if and when they do, I never believe them.
Actions really do speak louder than a handful of nice adjectives tossed your way.
Instead of staying mad at the inability of most others to feel articulately, I cultivate a terrific sense of self-importance.
My unhealthy behavior looks like this:
Baring my soul <–> Lashing out (when I don’t like the response or lack of one) <–> Shutting everyone out.
I say often that I dislike people who know what their problems are and don’t bother trying to fix them. I also say that it’s not a good idea to deal in extremes, constantly switching poles and courting cataclysm in the process.
I am such a hypocrite.
