I so agree. I am terrible about my hateful self talk. It seems so ingrained in my soul. Lots of negative comments that must be healed. Never good enough no matter how much I try. I wished I would have heard this video 30+ years ago. But thank you Michele for some of the best videos on codependency. I'm close to 60 years old and my parents were negative comments as their total go to. I don't remember every being praised and I'm starving for it. I married a mid range narc 34 years ago. We've raised 5 kids, and they all have issues. Why wouldn't they?' They grew up in a volatile, not a stable household. I'm so very sorry for them. I realize how much work is involved in our healing process but it's got to be today.
Hey Kelly! I'm so glad you found me and t's been helpful. Yeah there is a lot to do in relationship self-esteem recovery but having the right support makes a huge difference - :)
One I found easier for myself to ease into was to say to myself “I am no more and no less worthy of love as everyone else” it felt more true to where I was at at the time and then change it later to “I am lovable”
Yes! I talked about that in another video - sometimes adding the words “maybe” or “people think I’m….” Before affirmations can ease our minds into believing it!
@@MichelleFarrismft thank you so much! Ive been recently binging on videos about this and trauma bonds having just gotten out of one and going thru it. I love your channel btw, thanks again!
The bonus tip is great. Internalize the compliments we receive. I usually say thank you and move on. Today I had a transgender woman flirt with me. She said I was cute and adorable. I went to my doctor's office to change my insurance and there she was in the reception area, flirting mightily with me. I did not know what to make of her, but I was gracious and polite and briefly talked. Tried not to stare and process at the same time. Only the second one I have ever encountered. Both men to women.
Fantastic information!! You are very talented in the way you express the ways our lives become more fulfilling. Believe totally in the value of self talk, and you have added additional knowledge of this subject. Thank you!!!!
I keep criticizing and comparing myself almost all the time 🙈 Guess it has to do with the bad grades I got at school and with having been rejected and left by women often.. and difficulties at my work place. Love your work Michelle! Greetings from Germany ☀️
Wow amazing. Your example of the trip is what is happening to me now. I’m scared we will get covid on the trip but it’s really nothing I can control. Help me change the narrative of my trip! I want to enjoy it and not have negative thought.
Just found your channel! You give such practical information and are so assuring. Looking forward to watching more of your videos for insights to improve my relationships and personal life❤❤
You’re a great therapist you really know how to talk to people you have really helped me so far I used to have a lot of self-esteem issues because of a fact and they call psychiatrist but today they call him psychologist she would say to me, Dana you have great concentration, but you are slightly retarded, and then I took the Kleenex and I wipe my nose lumen nose then I threw it against the wall. If we were today I would’ve thrown it at her. I was so angry and sad at the same time nobody ever calls me retarded ever again they don’t use that word anymore they now use mentally impaired or Please..
Dana, hope Howard writes I’m a talk aboliic, it’s a difficult thing to learn the keep quiet, and went to listen. Do you have a saying they’re on anxiety like to hear that please!
@@MichelleFarrismft ok yea i googled you and seen that do you except debit cards from FSA? The flex pay? I plan to use half cash and the other have with that!
That makes sense Tom because I'm guessing that makes you feel happy right? When we are engaged in activities we enjoy - that increases our sense of fulfillment and peace. LOVE that!

Yes! Ditto! The idea of "why are you holding onto someone else's thoughts?" I love that! I've never framed it like that before.
So glad that made sense to you! Thank for watching Michelle - great name BTW :)

The model car I'm working on is hurting my self esteem ... Maybe time for a new hobby??
Try not to judge yourself for HOW you are doing it - instead focus on the JOY you have in doing it. Hope that helps!
