We humiliate ourselves to the people we like so they will never like us back.

    My mom does this.

    There’s a certain amount of self depreciation that is acceptable. It’s useful for showing that you aren’t threatening and are self aware.

    But if it’s constant, it shows lack of confidence and some self hatred. That can be exhausting.

    And it’s wrong. You should think highly of yourself. You’re at least in the top 50% of all people, if not higher.

    Or maybe…

    We assume that everyone does the same things as us in an attempt to normalize our own toxic behavior, instead of realizing that’s not normal and correcting it.

        Just to be clear, I didn’t mean that as an attack or insult. I’ve seen some of the other things that you’ve been posting, and it sounds like your not in a good place right now.

        We all have things we can’t control, but a lot of times we don’t realize how we may be sabotaging ourselves.

        Changing some of your own habits may help you deal with your own reality in a better way.

        Best wishes to you, I hope things get better!
