Good to have an image I guess
If he shows up while I’m trying to be ‘on the job’ I’ll know too talk him down and me up!?!
Good to have an image
Feels good to put the critical side of me into context, with an image and 3rd person view
It feels good to get a visual representation of the voice that’s in the back of my head.

It’s a start
It’ll do
It’s important for me to recognize the characteristics of that inner critic.

He’s still there
