When will you be good enough for you? Is there some breaking point where you will accept everything about yourself?

Question

Suppressing emotions helps in with rational thinking and estimation of your value from reference point of others. It's not about appearing cold outside, it's about being calculated and pragmatic deep inside without appearing like emphasis of psychopathological arrogance for people around you. Deception of other is okay but deception of yourself is not and emotions are kind of self deception.

Love yourself first before anyone else.

Man I used to wait for this magical day where I’d suddenly feel good enough. Like one morning I’d wake up and the self-hate would just be gone. Never happened.
What actually happened is I got fucking tired of it. Tired of the constant scoreboard in my head. Tired of treating every flaw like a crime. One random Tuesday I just… stopped arguing with myself so hard. Not because I suddenly loved everything about me. I just realised the war was more exhausting than the things I was fighting.
Now when that nasty voice starts up I mostly roll my eyes at it. Sometimes I still believe it for a bit. Still have days where I look in the mirror and go ugh. But it doesn’t own the whole day anymore. I let it talk and then I go make coffee or text a friend or whatever. The feeling moves on if you don’t feed it.
I don’t think there’s a final breaking point where you accept every single thing about yourself forever. That sounds like bullshit people sell in books. Real life is messier. Some days you accept 70%. Some days 40%. The win is just not hating yourself as a full-time job anymore.
You’re allowed to be a work in progress and still be worthy of kindness from yourself. That’s it. No big epiphany required. Just stop treating yourself like the enemy for five minutes and see what happens.

I broke along time ago

Lol I look at it now like I'm a work in progress

I mean I could say that I'm good enough and I I truly am for me

I don't need to prove myself to anybody or anything I'm happy

Don't get me wrong I'm sure I can find a hundred things to improve on but I'm not going to not unless I see it right in front of me

I mean I look at myself I'm 100% sure that I could always be better at everything but everything that I do I do it my best so I don't think about being better

And I'm not one to say damn I should have done that or I should have done this I'm not that person in that moment I make a choice I deal with it and it's done I don't look back I know what I'm doing I think

NathanDavis · Answer

for good or for bad.. already did that, long long time ago...  fortunately, I don't really see myself nor anyone else as "has to be ALL good"

EmmaMary · Answer

I certainly strive to be the very best I can... But it's like asking how long a piece of string is, as to where my breaking point might be.

_Lynx · Answer

How about I say I accept the consequences of my actions, regardless of the results 💁‍♂️ That's how it is I guess.

Bricealan · Answer

@nikki1989 I think I am there, at that point of accepting what I am as a man and as a human being.

I have the time to whip me into shape every beautiful day on this earth. I have hit rock bottom many times and I am proof that it does have a trampoline. 9 lives.

For me it just happened over time and through experience. Being single for a long time and enjoying my own company.
