#self perception

[elder-millennial-of-zion]

Wild seeing all these blogs that are like:

Post #1: “I’m a chronic people pleaser. I try not to make anyone mad because I’m scared of not being liked. I give so much to others that I neglect my own needs. It’s been so hard to give myself permission to take up space and acknowledge my own worth. 🥺”

Post #5: “anyway all those Israelis deserved to be murdered, hope that helps!”

Excerpt:

The research, conducted with three other colleagues, consisted of seven experiments involving more than 2,000 American and Chinese participants. We showed that there is a psychological link between eco-friendliness and perceptions of femininity. Due to this “green-feminine stereotype,” both men and women judged eco-friendly products, behaviors, and consumers as more feminine than their non-green counterparts.

If you’re loved from the start, it gets stored in your cells, your brain recognizes it as the correct way for you to exist, and you don’t even get to doubt it; you seek it out as your birthright. When you don’t have it, your brain recognizes neglect and abuse as the ‘correct way for you to exist’ and you try and reprogram it, tell yourself thousand times it’s not supposed to be like that, you’re supposed to be loved, you’re supposed to be cared for, but you have no way to seek it out and have it, so it’s just struggling with your thoughts, all on your own. Feeling like you’re deluding yourself because surely if it was right and correct for you to be loved, you would be loved, at least for some part of your life, at least by someone. You’d at least have memories of how it felt, how correct it was, and you’d know what kind of situation you want to put yourself in, so you’d have that again.

But without it, you’re just blind without a map, telling yourself something you never experienced should and does exist, you only have no idea where to get it, or how to find it. And, if you do get closer to it, you’ll get uncomfortable and triggered and feel desire to leave. And you have to get out of it, because it’s part of your stability to get away from highly distressing situations, you can’t afford to be in distress that high.

Finding ways to feel like you have the right to be loved, is something complex and hard, that doesn’t come easily to those abused and unloved. It’s the one thing we have to teach ourselves over and over, and it still only works when other people agree, and put effort into being there for us, being willing to undo some of the damage done. You’re not to blame if you cant’ figure it out, or do it alone. If you struggle with relationships and friendships and feeling worthy, it’s absolutely not your fault. You were put in a situation where this would be hard. If you can only handle little bits and pieces, that’s okay. This is something other people are responsible for as well.

I wish I could explain that when I say I am a ratman or a stinky trashman I am I am not being self deprecating

When I say I am a ratman or a stinky trashman I am no longer worried about fitting into societies expectations or holding me up to their standards of an acceptable person

Basically:

I am no longer trying to be Big Bird when I am Oscar the Grouch

I really hope you can find the strenght to remind yourself and know that you're worthy. Worthy of everything you desire. That your past, the way your caregivers or anyone told you or made you feel like you don't deserve or you're not enough, is a huge lie.

You are lovable, beautiful and deserving exactly as you are.

And ofc you're free to not believe me, but then, you shouldn't believe anyone else as well. Try to find your own beauty and worth inside of you. Cause you're plenty. Everyone is born beautiful, worthy and lovable. We just tend to forget to see all that sometimes, especially when life and the wrong people come between us and our own self perception, messing it up. And it's generally cause of those people's problems/traumas, and not cause we are any less of them or anyone around. They're just projecting their shadows on us. Remember that when someone wants to diminish your self worth, they usually do it because they feel already little in your presence and want to take you down with them.

This is really fascinating stuff, and it provides a biological basis for why society should be empathetic towards people with gender dysphoria. They're not just "crazy," they have a clinically recognizable neurological condition.

Question: how does someone "self ID" their own intrinsic network connectivity in their parietal-occipital and fronto-parietal networks? And why are we still entertaining this trans "self ID" crap as an "identity"?

One thing is certain: how our parents see us affects our self-perception. When you were a child and your parents repeated something to you over and over again - and there was no one else around you against whom you could check the correctness of these statements - it is likely that you took the point of view of your parents. We sabotage ourselves because we are conditioned to trust the false self-perception we acquired as children and believed for a long time.

Your dating choices are a reflection of how you feel about yourself (self-perception/self-esteem).🪞

I feel like Mario finds it hard to confess to Peach because (despite his status of hero and everything else that he does for the Kingdom) Mario doesn't think he can ever be good enough for Peach.

From day 1, Mario would be all too aware of the tremendous gap existing between them and would thus deem it an impossible pursuit.

He would try to ignore his feelings for her at first, but they would only keep on growing each day and he would know he can't pretend; least of all to himself. His deeply humble nature and resigned spirit on matters of romance would make him blind to all that he is, and to all that everyone else see in him. In his own eyes, he really is just a silly plumber with a hopeless dream; not a brave and noble heart deserving of the highest honors. People's admiration would endlessly surprise and perplexe him because he would genuinely have no idea how good and special of a person he actually is. 🥺💖

Hey x

I’m the anon who posted about finding love , thank you for your answer . Do you have any tips of decentralising men ? I’ve been trying to focus on myself more but in the back of mind it’s still focused around being more appealing to men .

Hi love! I would say if somehow you cannot stop centralizing men around goals like career, hobbies, fitness, mental health, etc., consider who you would regret not being if you found and divorced the man who you thought was the partner of your dreams 5, 10, 15, or 20 years from now.

What would this woman have done to have to set herself up for a better life?

What career aspirations would she have pursued, and how much money would she have in her savings to live the way she desires?

What would her day-to-day life look like?

What would her friendships/professional and familial relationships look like?

Would she have a pet? Where would she live?

How would she dress? What would she read, watch, or discuss?

Hope this helps xx

It’s important to resist creating a version of ourselves to fit others needs. It’s so easy to slowly morph into something more acceptable to others, to shut out our interests and unique traits. To stop speaking in our own words, dressing in our own clothes, and being who we want to be. You can never truly fulfill someone else’s idea of who you should be, because you aren’t that person. The best thing you can do is live for yourself and find love in it. Those who appreciate you for who you want to be will stick close.

It is hard to me accept my irrational and irritated side, I feel frustrated every time I'm not acting in a "healthy" way (which ironically makes it a toxic attitude). But recently a friend told me that it could also be self-sabotage not wanting to make mistakes because we don't want to accept that we are not perfect (something that would help us live life more lightly) so that got me thinking...

I want to learn to embrace my mistakes so they don't become an emotional burden and that the perceptions of others about who I am do not hurt me. As Einstein said "Worry more about your conscience than your reputation. Conscience is what you are, reputation is what others think you are". So... I'm at that point, processing it.
