I've been struggling with self-depreciating thoughts that I cannot control. What I can control is not feeling shame but working on them with a DBT worksheet. Let's do it together!
Stopping intrusive thoughts or problematic behaviours
Happiness, pleasure, and the worlds in between
Nothing wrong with a bit of pleasure, but why do we equate it with happiness and where do these two things differ?
Falling back into trauma
Trauma recovery is kind of my thing. So when a recent trauma threw me, I thought bouncing back would be no biggie.
Disappointing my younger self or growing into future me?
I don't miss much from the country I grew up in. I'm only missing the space between the notable events and people.
I woke up to a stranger in my home
I wish this was a just a spooky Halloween story.
Let your tears water your soul
When crying, we might feel embarrassed, vulnerable and caught off guard. Here's why you should feel proud of your tears.
Happy World Mental Health Day!
Today, I celebrated by cancelling all my plans and sleeping for hours. Sometimes, this is what depression looks like. Sometimes, it's self-care.
The art of prioritising
Roles and responsibilities are piling up, and so does the guilt associated with them. When it is impossible to do everything, what do we do first?
I can’t wait to be patient
Our world doesn't lend itself to patience. With social media, Amazon Prime and Google, it's not surprising I expect immediate results for everything else, most of all healing.
Seeing red flags where there are none
Why is it that we can only see our flaws when spotting them in others? Once the connection had been made however, I could not sit idly by.
