This is a great thread idea
Ok here goes *deep breath*
1) I tend to shut down when I am hurt. It is me defense mechanism. It is as if though I go into somewhat of a survival mode. Before that moment, I am 100% open, the second I get hurt, it is like a light switch. It is incredibly difficult for me to get back to normal.
2) I work too much! I mean really! I take on too and neglect myself. I have to work hard at making time for me. My past relationships have suffered some because of this. Learning how to actually leave work at a decent hour, and accept that the work will be there in the morning.
3) Forgiving is easy....forgetting has always been quite hard for me.
4) I am my toughest critic. I beat myself up for so much.
5) somedays I feel fierce and beautiful...most days, I don't even like to look at pictures of myself. I struggle with my self esteem.
6) I can be a cynic.
This is just to start....I will be back!
