My inner critic is effing hot
Scared. Worried. Controlled by something larger
He kind of does look like my imaginary self critic. Like an idealized version of myself, that tells me I’ll never be good enough.
It was spot on. It felt something that follows me and no I can look at it and push it away, or at least start trying to.
It was right on
Spot on
It makes me mad
it helped me realize that it was an entity separate from me
I immediately think of past failures
Very accurate. Makes me want to hide.
Makes me feel like I’m not good enough
Makes me realise that it’s only temporary and I need to learn to control this
A negative side of me that too scared to look in the eye
Like seeing something I know I can defeat

It felt like I was seeing the evil force behind my brain putting all these negative and untrue thoughts into my head
it was useful. it’s usually just a ball of feelings so nice to have an image to push against
Useful and widely applicable to acknowledge the inner critic and learn how to isolate it from the rest of your thoughts.
Yes
Like coming face to face with a foe I’ve been at war with for years
