nothing motivates meagh i used to have dreams and motivations, mostly for validation from other people but at least that motivate me. now that i decided that social validation is not a worthy pursuit and all the spiritual **** i've read says social validation is not a worthy pursuit, NOTHING motivates me. i have no motivation. i have also decided that all the things i used to do because they made me feel "safe" were just obsessive compulsive behvaiors that were not rooted in reality. so for instance, being on strict diets, or trying to be really organized, or working really hard, no longer give me sense of "safety," so i just eat crap and its hard for me to even drag myself to brush my teeth. i seriously have n… [more]

Judging yourself is the cause of misery
For a long time I used to judge myself and everyone else all the time. Either I was good or bad. I had to engage in activities I didn't want to do in order to be good, and if I wanted to free myself from my own chains, i was bad. Either way was miserable. i started listening to this person named Rikka Zimmerman. She says that being in a constant state of judgement is like being constantly shot in the head. I wonder if this is why I have suffered from depression, anxiety, and insomnia for so long. It almost seems too simple, but I think it might be true. I often criticize myself to death just to anticipate any criticism I might get experience in the future. Or somehow I think criticizing myse… [more]

It's not fixing your flawed self, it is recovering your true inner self
When diagnosed with a mental illness, many traditional forms of therapy and recover describe the patient as having a disease you just have to cope with. This worked for me for a while, until I realized that I was often smarter than the therapist or recovery program. Were these the people I was taking advice from? People who were often themselves still medicated and unhappy? Struggling to combat their own personal mental demons while prescribing away to patients paying them hundreds an hour. No way. I am better than that. Instead of looking to a therapist, psychiatrist, or recovery program i started to look to people who really had it all. Who told me I could have it all too. People who were … [more]
