What did you learn about your inner critic today?

Not much tbh however visualising it may help

I guess it’s good to understand that it’s not you

That mine isn’t a voice or anything close to reality. It’s a feeling? It’s hard to explain

I think trying to separate the critic from the self is really useful in managing how I view these negative thoughts. It helps me relax to think of these thoughts as coming from another person, almost as advice I don’t need to take

I didn’t relate to it at all. It looked like the grim reaper. Way too ominous

The point that my inner critic does not represent me, and is only a part of me that can be acted upon or not is very empowering

Seemed irrelevant to what I typed in

Felt nothing and No

Eh

It’s more of a feeling or an unseen force for me but perhaps I can learn to see it as a figure to more easily recognize it and combat it.
I learned that it’s a self defence mechanism that I can learn to control with time and effort.

Feel if I can visualise it, I can face it

Felt nothing and no

Hope it can help, doesn’t feel like a real figure in the moment

Slightly. Parts of it spoke to me. Others parts were more of a feeling that I’ll see if it resonates.

Looks sort of how I feel - not bad representation from what I shared

It didn’t immediately resonate with me but hopefully will help me visualize my enemy

Scary

I can empathise with this sentiment

Not really resonating but I’m hopeful that it will fall into the puzzle going forward. My “inner critic” doesn’t bring up thoughts about not being able to get it up.. it’s more about being nerve shot from daily stress and worry about the future of my relationship.. it’s more about how it’s just hard to get into the moment when still being rubbed the wrong way by an argument with my lover whom I’m now trying to get intimate with.

I would say it resonated with me a good bit. It kinda showed me that there’s this mental block everytime that I have to get past. Once the negative thoughts are outta my head I feel like I will be able to achieve in bed
