It was strange seeing my inner critic visualised. The picture really resonated with me.
Most of the time I feel like a coward cause I really struggle with failure and rejection, and it’s always feeding me worst case scenarios to stop me doing things. At tuis point it was so apart of me I couldn’t tell it apart from my normal thoughts.
It did resonate with me. I struggle back and forth between feeling like I need to do more and like the next achievement will fix things for me or make me more valuable. My inner critic seemed athletic and successful but was also sad and seemed dissatisfied
Not quite. Don’t feel like it’s negative self talk that’s my particular issue but it’s nice to direct my focus on something else.
Sad it exists
Fairly accurate. It’s hard to describe where my “inner critic” comes from as it’s more a feeling
Inner critic moves with confidence, destroying hope or possibilities.
It’s hard to catch a inner critic because it sounds and acts just like you but when you start to catch it you are like oh yeah that’s the critic not me
Yes it’s spot on. It completely drains my confidence and makes me feel not good enough. Definitely makes me fearful
I didn’t care much about the visualization, although it makes sense. It’s definitely a bad feeling when it comes around though. It moves with confidence and strength that I do not have.
I cannot relate at all to this idea that my critical faculty is some kind of third party. It’s my own judgement and rational concerns that I need to take responsibility for and passing the book to some inner critic feels more like trying to wash your hands of it than deal with it head on.

It kinda did
Never thought of giving my inner voice an appearance. It usually feels like a whisper in my ear.
I didn’t like it. My inner critic is me and not something else

It didn’t really resonate with me. I see my inner critic just as my own thoughts and feelings. They’re very realistic, and I don’t feel like anyone is speaking to me.
I feel like my inner critic is something that is quite blurry and represents a real person
Showing the inner critic as sad looking version of myself hit me, it is like it is trying to bring me down to its level of confidence.
While it isn’t entirely accurate to what I see in my head, the overall vibe is somewhat close
No
It feels like a good exercise to put a face on someone who has a lot of power over me
It’s a big challenging putting a new face to it as it feels more like an extension of my inner psyche, almost like a tumor. I hope this excuse will help me to learn how to cut it off
