Are you too hard on yourself ?

BIG TIME!!! I AM SOOOOOOO HARD ON MYSELF!!!!! I BEAT MYSELF UP MENTALLY AND PHYSICALLY!!!!! :( :( :(

heh u said hard.

This is probably THE biggest of my problems. I think it takes over most of my decisions.

There's also this mentality I have that is like......."why even try anything when I KNOW THE OUTCOME ALREADY!" ......or...."why do it if it's not gonna be perfect?"

Part of it comes from fear.
Maybe all of it comes from fear...IDK.

Sometimes it feels like a curse because I cant make decisions...so instead I just do nothing.

I have to be -- I have 2 children to support and my dreams are big. I want us all to have the best life I can provide. Also, I am overcritical by nature I think, but I guess it's a good thing that sometimes it helps you achieve better results that way.

I hate how hard I am on myself. I really shouldn't be. I just insult myself and stuff, partially joking, but not.
It's terrible xD
STUPID ME!

All the time, and that's something I hate about myself. there I go again..hah..

no i think everyone should have confidence in ourselves

Sometimes it's so frustrating...
=(

It seems these days that everyone is 'hard on themselves' that isn't carefree. Maybe it's me, but doesn't one have to be their own critic to better themselves? Then there are people like me, that will literally drive themselves to sickness attempting to achieve perfection in any given area. When others tell me that what I have done is far better than what other people would have, I can't accept it. I take it as a compliment, but it doesn't really matter to me, because inside it could have been better yet.

Sometimes. Whenever i remember something i feel guilty about, or embaressed by, then i sort of flinch back internally and beat myself up mentally. I know it's 'stupid' but i can't help it, especially if it cost me a friendship

I think just about everyone is hard on themselves. There are very regretful moments everyone experiences, possibly originating out of ignorance or just plain being stupid. Just plain stupid: I meet my cousin's boyfriend for the first time, he says some thing like "yeah, me and my sister are quite a handful for my mother as it is" but it sounded to me like it was in comic relief, I laugh loudly thinking they are up to no good, I later find out his sister has a mental handicap = I look like a bleep. Ignorance: Being an bleep to your friends for no reason, I can try to forgive myself since I was under the influence but I crossed some lines.

yeah! i would think about it too much and my day would suck

I am ridiculously hard on myself. In a way it is good because it means that you always achieve good results but then, because you are so hard on yourself you are never actually satisfied with those results. Its like a catch 22.

Yea I should lighten up but then again I feel like we should be our own worst critic before anyone else can
