What's something you wish you knew at the beginning of your recovery or self-care journey?

If you'd told me in 2016, when I first started my recovery, that I would be where I am today, I wouldn't have believed it. My life has changed drastically from what I imagined it would be. How I view myself, my understanding of my childhood trauma, my sense of purpose and worth, and the tough moments I've made it through are nothing short of spectacular to me. I couldn't have imagined this version of myself if I tried. I wish I had been kinder to myself at the beginning, and that I'd known about more resources, but without the process of finding the communities I have, I wouldn't be who I am, so I'm grateful regardless.

One thing I’ve learned is that when negative thoughts appear, they can sound incredibly convincing. A thought can repeat itself enough times that eventually it stops feeling like a thought and starts feeling like a fact. I’m failing. This isn’t going to work. I’m not good enough.

What helps me is noticing the thought before automatically agreeing with it. I don’t have to fight it or force myself to think positively. I can simply create a little space and ask, “Is this actually true, or is this just a thought passing through my mind?” That small distinction has helped me give far less power to thoughts that don’t deserve it.

We all have negative thoughts. The goal isn’t to never have them. It’s to get better at deciding which ones deserve our attention.

What is one thought you’re trying to stop treating as a fact?

Also, if you're going through a tough time right now, I want you to know that I post mental health videos about how to deal with painful thoughts. So if you or anyone you know is struggling and wants help, click on one of the links below or write me if you have any questions you want me to answer:
