My inner critic has always been just the ideal fantasy version of me I wish I was.
i’ve always thought of it as me but maybe being able to depersonalize it from me is a good thing
I have to think about whether my inner critic is that dark. I hesitate to incorporate that image into my thinking but I get it.
Cray cray
He’s a hater lol

He is an empty hallow me
Is something holding me back from being me
It feels like it’s the worst version of me and all my negative thoughts manifested
It’s like that jealous friend who’s holding you back from succeeding without them
It’s screaming anxious thoughts at me and it’s reminding me of everything I hate about myself.
It’s like a devil on my shoulder whispering past bad experiences and bad thoughts about how I’ll perform in my ear
This image of my inner critic didn’t really resonate with me at all. It was so rogue that it actually made me laugh. So in a way it did sort of resonate with me having the image of my inner critic being a creepy little man that I can dismiss easily
The image that was given didn’t really resonate with me. I understand the imagery of putting something to my critic. However, the only thing I would say I see is myself telling me I’m gonna fail again and not be able to perform.
I resonate with this
It’s the version of me that I’ve been trying to avoid and run from my whole life. But sometimes it’s taken grip of me and I can’t break free.
Yea it’s nice to see a visualisation of your thoughts of your whole life
It’s nice to feel like the inner critic is not me, and to take it out of my head for a second
Not.micb affect
It does cause it doesn’t look like me and it’s hiding. Interesting that it feels it can hide its face while I’m struggle with issues of perfectionism and social anxiety
Yes, if I put a face on it I’d imagine it would look very similar to this image
