Lately, I have been frustrated with my
inability to truly think about myself in a more “healthy” way. Often times, I will have a negative and
unreasonably critical view of myself while at the same time I am able to realize
that the thoughts themselves are irrational and unfair. At a conscious level, I know that if I were
speaking to another person and they shared the same exact thoughts about
themselves, I would push back and try to make them understand how they are being
unreasonable. Yet, I cannot push back
similar thoughts in myself, why?
Why do we have the ability to understand that
our thoughts are irrational and this realization still seems to accomplish
nothing? What use does such a realization have in practical terms? If anything,
it makes the whole situation more frustrating since it makes a mockery of our
supposed ability to “control” our thoughts.
To me, this is an important reminder that we
shouldn’t be judgmental of others who hold unhealthy thoughts
about themselves. We can’t escape the same problem in our mind.
