      @Crrom honestly DBT therapy has helped me with it. It's taught me that the only real approval I need is from myself. It is really hard! I try to challenge myself when I think that way. I ask myself "what proof do I have, and is it true facts or just my opinion on this situation". It's hard, so hard, and it makes it a bit more bearable when I ask myself that

          @Crrom I’m working on figuring that one out as well. So far, I’ve been feeding my brain positive thoughts.
