The 'Self love' hack: How to stop seeking external validation and finally start loving your own company.
falseI do have to say that it worked for me and some of my friends but everyone has its own way. But if it can help at least one person I’ll be so happy.
A little story for you:
For a long time, I built my entire life around other people. I didn't respect myself. Even when people humiliated me or looked down on me, I was always looking for ways to please them, to be "useful," just so they wouldn't leave.
I want to share two things that actually helped me: Being in a relationship with yourself, and 2000s music.
Let me elaborate on that.
- Being in a relationship with yourself
If you are like me, you always want to please the people around you. There is a lot of power in that, but it usually goes to the wrong place.
From now on, in everything you go through, ask yourself: "What would I do if my best friend was in this situation?" Then, do exactly that for yourself.
• Going through a breakup? What would you do for a friend? You’d probably offer support, give them time, and listen because you don’t want them to collapse.
• Feeling like you succeeded at something? What would you do for a friend? You’d celebrate with them, not minimize or diminish the achievement.
It's all about steps. Some things you can change, and some things like the pain of a breakup you can't. But as your own "partner," you will always know what to say.
The side effect: You will become very picky about who you give your energy to, because you suddenly realize how much value you actually have and how much you can actually give.
- 2000s Music:
I just love 2000s songs. And my bestie told me I look good dancing to it in the mirror at 7 am, (yes, I told it to myself)
And I swear it’s not how schizophrenia develops.
Anyway, if you’re going through some tough times, I swear you’ll be fine, life is not easy but we are getting stronger each day, and I love you.
Also it’s never a shame to seek professional help, I’m in therapy for months and i LOVE when people listen to me even if it’s for money :)
