HOW TO KILL NEEDLESS GUILT AND/OR FEAR?? real answers and fake/funny both wanted. as a result of my environment/situation (probably) plus some bad habits i've been feeling very guilty n afraid lately. how to stop???
also - even if $ for therapy is not an option, which for me it hasn't been lately, just kinda going through the idea and strategies in IFS help me out. obv it's different for everyone but hey, maybe it'll help out
okay @ fishgallery i guess i've been feeling guilty for blogging ngl. telling the truth about...some stuff. because my mother has been so hurt in the past by me telling other places online, my friends, therapists, etc., she's gotten me to correct myself to them (even the therapists) etc. i guess i'm scared of her somehow discovering i'm still "lying" (telling the truth)
i know i have a commitment to being extremely honest and not exaggerating. i know that although i've been accused of lying for telling the truth, i know what the difference is. i have to tell the truth. i have to have a space to tell the truth. i can't live without it @lotus-cube
If it's needless, then just don't think too much about it. Take a rest, take a walk, whatever helps you take your mind off of things.
ok genuinely exploring this kind of therapy helped me a lot: https://www.verywellmind.com/what-is-ifs-therapy-internal-family-systems-therapy-5195336

Know what you want, and make the decision you can live with. You can change your mind anytime you want.

It really sucks that you have to go through this. I heard you updated your website name, so i hope you can get back to guilt free blogging soon.
