This episode of talking about Cognitive Distortion. We cover "Labeling" and some of the effects as well as solutions. When the abusive person is yourself it is a lot harder to catch and bring awareness and change to the behavior, with resentment you may have for the person in the mirror. One of the simplest tools I used early on is to get it on paper, see it on paper. As your awareness grows more steps and resources will present themselves over time.
I have used the research and practices of David D. Burns, MD. I am not a mental health professional, for professional help please seek licensed professionals. Join Peer-to-Peer support groups such asNamiLA. Check outWarm-lines which are created to call a professional before a crisis. Everything I share is based on my own mental health journey, some of which you may find useful as you continue on your journey. My goal for these next few episodes on mental health is to help us hold on to some sense of sanity through this hyper-reality. The people who need to know this information will find it, their friends will share it and they will be motivated to do their own research. No one owns knowledge. Protect your mind from those that will prey on it for self-gain.
🎧 Sometimes the abusive person isn’t outside of you, it’s inside of you.
🎧 Be aware of the abusive thoughts inside your head.
🎧 When in a negative, funky place, write it down, give it air, let it breathe, take its power.
🎧 Remember: Catch it. Check it. Change it.
