How would you describe your inner critic?

My heart starts to race

Puts me off and tells me I’m going to disappoint

Looks like me but not in any physical way, knows exactly what worries me

It makes me anxious, constantly nagging about things that have happened and therefore it must happen again, like going soft.

Its an anxious feeling thats a feeling thats something might go or going wrong and I hate it

It wants everything to be perfect no matter if I’m working on a craft or a project it has to be perfect as it was store-bought, even though those things aren’t perfect and then it overthink did not perfect attributes to those things. My heart races. I feel hot and flustered and get mad at people close to me, I love deeply.

It the tightening in my chest and the focus on my penis not getting erect.

It’s a tight knot that develops in my chest. It brings up dread.

Like a creature with a voice that spreads anxiety insecurity and triggers that fight and flight mode. But describing it made it better as it somehow provided a bit more control over it.

It’s like a deep feeling that pulls all of my attention and emotions to it, numbing them and preventing me from feeling what I want to feel. describing it however has allowed me to highlight the issues within it

Clearer

It’s this feeling that is a mixture of low burn anxiety and overwhelming numbness. It’s like I can’t even really feel fully about something because there’s this wall of numbness between myself and my true feelings

A version of me that looks and acts like a scary alternate future version of myself

I realized that I doesnt even appear during sex. It won’t the moment I confused excitement with anxiety and stress. When it stopped being about experiencing something fun and eventually being will I get it up

It’s my voice but cutting and pessimistic. It’s a tight feeling in my chest and stomach.

It’s like a vice grip around my arms and chest holding me in place and shooting a light sensation up into my face

Tight chested, under control of a harmful entity, small.

Not as attractive as I actually am! Apprehensive, pessimistic, and not sexually liberated (all things I’m not day to day)

Weak, stupid, funny, unmanly, scared, worried, insecure, undeserving, useless and a bit of trauma

They’re just a scared kid. Wanting to bring me down for their own benefit.
