I'm not quick enough with these catchy things. I need alliteration J names.

Yes. I remember this. Literally watch my husband deliberate. I tell him to buy the expensive ones. What's it matter because can't afford either of them anyway. You spend 16 hours a day in them, it matters in that way.

Exhausted from the decades of disinformation from our own government. I question everything ever said or written down. If anyone can be manipulated, influenced to change their statements, what should I believe? Nothing out there can be trusted. If the media is complicit, why should I listen to it?

I just posted the long journal entry exercise for shadow work. It's deep pain work. Feels good to move through it. Let it out, cry for that little girl.๐ข
Jess๐ค๐๐ค (@shihtzusnuggles.bsky.social) reply parent
4. Integrate and Acknowledge: Acknowledge the shadow without judgment and then integrate it by resolving the past issue. Rereading the journal entry. It's not triggering me to cry as hard. Still stings. Chest tightens. I sigh... 5/5
Jess๐ค๐๐ค (@shihtzusnuggles.bsky.social) reply parent
3. Seek Positive Intent: Ask it questions like, "Why are you doing this?" or "What positive intent are you trying to fulfill?". Positive Intent of reappearing negative messages is to allow me an opportunity to have realization moment. Uncovering the who do you think you are? You unlovable POS. 4/5
Jess๐ค๐๐ค (@shihtzusnuggles.bsky.social) reply parent
2. Engage in Conversation: Imagine having a dialogue with this "thing" or past version of yourself. Why are these negative messages bubbling up? Instant internal voice says WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE, TRYING TO HEAL? YOU DON'T DESERVE IT! crying now, I verbalize, "I do deserve it." 3/5
Jess๐ค๐๐ค (@shihtzusnuggles.bsky.social) reply parent
1. Invite the Shadow: Choose something to work with, such as a past pain or feeling of unworthiness. Focus on repeated messages family said to me ๐ and the feelings of being unlovable. Emotions weren't allowed, so I didn't have any opportunities to practice regulating anger, accepting mistakes.2/5
Jess๐ค๐๐ค (@shihtzusnuggles.bsky.social)
Whew. Just did a journal shadow work exercise. Triggers from the dreams, deep pain of core beliefs about myself. Crying. This is a continuous exercise, not a one off. I'll include steps of the AI exercise in case you might find use of it: Inner Dialogue Exercise 1/5

It's a trauma brain loop. It's why I focus on radical acceptance and self-compassion. Learning to love myself after 47 years of self hatred is a daunting task.

Went back to bed after outside with the dogs. More dreams for 3 hours. Still exhausted. I think I'm past this shit, and it will pop up again. I am aware of it now in real time. Why the fuck are you on this loop? Pulling focus is difficult. 2/2
Jess๐ค๐๐ค (@shihtzusnuggles.bsky.social)
I had vibrant, emotional dreams last night. Woke up at 5am, ruminating on every shameful behavior ever, feeling weighed down and exhausted. 1/2
