Writing down the thoughts and feelings associated with them and getting a response as to exactly what these things mean for my journey, was insightful.
It is helpful to write down and get what’s in your head expressed in words

Yes it does I do journal sometimes
Makes things more real
Yeah writing things down seems to get it out of my head and makes it feel more like a solvable problem.
Yes I think it does.
It’s helpful to get it out of my head and into something I can address.
I found this great actually pinpointing the issues and finding why I feel the way I do
I still feel like my inner critic has the upper hand. I’m worried I cannot silence it enough
I’m so habituated to hearing my inner critic in the run up to sex, and trying to deal with his bullshit, that I’ve forgotten its not actually me, and now I’m trying to imagine how I would actually be in sex if my inner critic fucked off for a bit and let me get down to business
Journaling helps. Feel like I’m actually thinking these feelings and self talk through.
My inner critic helps me alter my thoughts about myself. It’s telling me that’s it’s all in my head
A lot of past issues are weighing on me when approaching current situations
The self-doubt is what really gets to me and makes it difficult to just enjoy the moment
It really helped to write down and think why I have self doubt
It definitely helped and made me realize new things
It is helpful to get everything out. Even though I already knew all of this seeing it written down provides more clarity
